Frank Herbert probably had no idea in 1965 when he wrote Dune, that his masterpiece would go on to live forever in so many mediums. One medium that we have never seen Dune conquer yet is an animated movie. Artist Matt Rhodes shows us what they might be like.
Rhodes is the lead concept artist for the videogame Dragon Age: Inquisition. I wonder if he knows some people who can make an animated Dune happen. I’d love to see it.
Critics can complain all they want about how David Lynch’s version of Dune is not a great adaptation, but you know what? I don’t care. The universe that the team created in this film completely captured my imagination when it came out and I enjoyed the hell out of it.
The visuals and atmosphere in this movie are truly magnificent. I can still watch it to this day and see things I didn’t notice the first time. It’s really fun to get a glimpse behind the scenes and to see them building this world.
