Between him and Wilford Brimley, the Walruses are replacing us all!

Is it evolution? Or is it devolution?

There's always convergent evolution.

And the Spice.

Old Spice?

Can you imagine the Arrakeen wars being fought over Old Spice?

Spice must flow.

Come to think of it, Jamie does resemble a Navigator. . .

Why did I just have a distinct mental image of Egon saying, "Don't cross the streams?"

Total protonic reversal!

"But you said never cross the streams...!"

Spice == Old Spice
Bruce Campbell == Muad'dib

What else?

Whenever you picture epic scenes from the story - like Paul's first riding of a Worm, the betrayal of Paul's father, or Muad d'ib's walking out of the great desert - you have to mentally insert the Old Spice whistle jingle.

...and of course all those hot Bene Gesserit chicks would have to groupie-up on anyone who uses the 'Spice.

Yea, and Truly, the desecration of Frank Herbert's corpse that began when his son and Kevin J. Anderson began ******* it in their first stumblings into necrophilia and beating of dead horses is now complete.

I hope we're proud of ourselves.

Dammit, ~Lyr, what have I told you about NOT staring directly at the Stone Burner while it's firing?

Yeah, the non-original authors have pushed the original (great) ideas into that unfortunate commercial space where the market inadvertently ends up supporting/encouraging them - at least until we find out that they should be beaten for their sins of mediocrity. But, let's face it, any effort only sullies the unachievable art/perfection of the original trilogy. David Lynch still breathes - even though he is solely responsible for my choosing against reading the trilogy until about 10 yrs ago, when I found out how badly he had missed the mark. I still have a morbid fascination for his movie, because even though it is but a shadow, some of the imagery is still spot on - but that may be a chicken-egg issue of mine because I saw the Lynch movie before I read the books...
