I didn’t think I’d blog today, but I just came across something so awesome that it just had to be recorded. John and I just got home from watching the second part of Dune. It’s a spectacularly good film every bit as great as the first part. Once again I left the cinema dying to explore the fictional world I’d just glimpsed. I was intending to write a full review of it on here in the morning, but there is a small detail which I simply have to note. Watching the film earlier, I noticed that the actor playing the Emperor looked familiar: he looked like Cristopher Walken, who also once appeared in the video to Fatboy Slim’s Weapon Of Choice. The reason that strikes me as so cool is because that song contain’s the lyrics “If you walk without rhythm, you won’t attract the worm”, a direct reference to Dune. I don’t know how deliberate this bit of casting was, but it just struck me as such a neat link that it begged to bee noted. I love how the film nodded to a music video twenty years before it.
