Spice World: Dune and The French Dispatch

Anakin Skywalker gave sand a bad rap. David Lynch spoiled it with voiceovers. Now, Denis Villaneuve is here to give sand another chance to spawn giant drug-farting worms. Did he succeed? Will these worms pass gas? Join us as we compare and contrast the new Dune with Lynch’s Dune like we’re in 8th grade English, explore the politics and philosophy of author Frank Herbert, and dip our toes into the water of Timothee Chalomet’s thematically disparate co-release, The French Dispatch. We are not the chosen ones but we do make a great podcast. You won’t even get sand in your cracks.
