If you guys haven't heard, Dune is being remade yet again, this time by Peter Berg.

But the SciFi miniseries was so good? Whyyyyy

Objectively.

Starship Troopers was a complete butchery of a classic Sci-fi Novel.  As far as I'm concerned Verhoven should  be flogged in Public Square for what he did to it.

Hmmm

Another remake of Dune - I enjoyed the Mini-series that was produced a couple of years ago, felt it was a lot better than the De Laurentis film.  Hope that this remake will be as good or even better.

Dimmukane:
Erm...David Lynch directed Dune, De Laurentis was the producer.  If you already knew that, my bad.


As far as Starship Troopers goes, I never read it.  I've read a lot of other Heinlein, though, and I think Starship Troopers was pretty spot on.

Dazed:
I read the book. The movie butchered the book. Butchered horribly and without mercy.

I think if you're directing a movie supposedly based on source material you should probably read the source material.
