When does the repeated adaptation of the same male authors and their ‘classic’ works become just a reduction of every new female-written novel that has the same capacity for world-building and audience-awing?film saw a beautiful rendering of Arrakis, a stunning show of the advancement of special effects, and… the repeated display of masculine centralization and reiterated narratives, characters and even sound effects and props from the science fiction we already have in rotation.
And should I begin to even discuss the reused actors? That would take another article and a half but let’s be real: Diversity is important across all stages of the production and recasting the same 12 actors in every speculative fiction film—from HBO productions to the MCU—doesn’t encourage opportunity.
Paul also reiterates age-old dialogue as a teen son, limited to the constraints of the ‘palace’, ready to face the world, reminding his father that he has been trained for the violence and the battles to come. All to be reprimanded by his father, who reminds him that he cannot take such risks, as he is the future of their bloodline. So much rests on his shoulders.
That part bugs me too.
