Post by Revan »

Anyone here who thinks a Dune forum would rule? :D

Would be fun! Will have to brush up on them ... I've read ALL the old ones and some of the new ones.

The movies have been interesting. I like the SciFi Channel versions vs. the theatrical release.

The SciFi channel version is worlds better than the David Lynch version. But Darth, you should definitely watch them both.

Didn't really enjoy either the movie or the series. Love the books though, especially the first one.

We gave Dune it's own Category at the Hangar: The Spacing Guild with two whole forums-Planetfall: Arrakis, the Dune Group Read led but Fist and others going on right now and The Dune Encyclopedia forum-with direct banner links to the Official Site. This has been up for 2 months--come post! 8) (click my www)

heh, a.)...we talked about it for a long while here (in the Sci Fi/Fantasy forum) and decided we need more space, and less 'group read' distraction. So it was, basically a idea hatched by a bunch of Watchers.
heh, b.)...you alway say you'll check out the Hangar (which is KW's sister site and about 60% of the moderators are also members here) but you never do! :cry:
heh, c.) :P

I don't know. I mean, if you keep inviting Revan, sure, he might continue to stay away from there, but if he does decide to go there, he might want to stay, and he'll keep telling you how you begged him to go there. Now that's all fine, but it is no promise that he'll leave here to go there; in fact, it is quite likely he'll spam the living daylights out of both forums, even though what he posts isn't exactly spam, and certainly cannot be served for lunch like spam can, and indeed usually never rhymes with ham, which spam definitely does. On the other hand, if you tell him to stay away, he'll go there to spite you, and he might want to stay, and he'll keep whining about how you begged him not to go there.

Then again, if we say nothing, he might find out about it by himself, he might go there, and he might want to stay, and he'll keep telling you how you never mentioned the site to him.
