Found this guy's review on the SoDs on youtube:
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d87cZoCz ... re=related[/youtube]
And btw isn't a bit stupid to call them sandworms od dune??? I mean were else would you find sand worms?
Oh yeah of course, I forgot the watersandworms of dune of Buzzell, how could I?
Anyway, this man's intro seemed pretty sensible, a bit of a preeq argument but it was ok:
"So, if you're a purist and you love the Frank Herbert books, and you're.. you know...you don't want to change away from that, you wanna keep it just the way it is well in this case it should be was but what the heck!; don't read these books. now we're talking!"
So fair enough, it's a variation on the "if you don't like them don't read them" but it was ok in a less worse way...
But it does get worse, and we know that guy's a dick from these words:
"But, if you love science fiction, and you wanna see how that ends, you've got to read SoD."
Just when you thought reaching rock bottom, he graces us with one of the most hindsightful comments ever made in a book review:
"I thought this was a very beautiful book"
Let's see what the rest tells us about the intellectual level of the preeqs

Yeah, Davesghola, I remember him.
(yawn)
This comment on the second "vlog" was more amusing than the thing itself:
No more sniffing of the alluvial glue for him!

This comment on the second "vlog" was more amusing than the thing itself:
AlluvialGlue (7 months ago) wrote:Sand-worms exist on the planet earth or 'Calladan' As Trees, Mushrooms, and coral in a triune severance state. Their existence on mars or 'Arakis' hasn't been possible for 54,000 years, because of the alignments of the planets, it's heavy work.
Arachnids, or 'spiders' spin webs for the growth rings on the trees. and fit in the human nasal cavity attaching their mandible to the meckle's ganglion of nerves for minding and awakening the tree into the mushroom, or rather the dead wood of tree

WTF?
Paul of Dune was so bad it gave me a seizure that dislocated both of my shoulders and prolapsed my anus.
