It's why in most of his pictures on the Net his face has that "Oh, God, I'm gonna cum...please don't let me cum until this is over!" look.A_Kalisandra_M wrote:I shall always remember this when I see his annoying face all over the media!Omphalos wrote:Luck had nothing to do with it.

(Edit: Sorry...makes more sense with the context in which it occurred to me, eh!)
It appeared in the romanian version of playboy, too (one of the few issues I have, of courseTleszer wrote:Hopefully only written for Playboy **shudders**orald wrote:Playboy?!

). It's a fragment from the chapter from House Atreides where Duncan is haunted by Rabban.Wow. An 8 page chapter "fragment." I would have thought an eight page spread would have four chapters in it.

. It was just unfortunate that the co-joined twits of sci-fi dumped a loaf in his copy.Oh yes, and we can see the proof of that with said exerpt from House Atreides.Omphalos wrote:I seem to recall them taking fiction pretty seriously

GamePlayer wrote:It doesn't work like that my friends. Hollywood is the big fish of the entertainment biz and they know it. You get paid for your rights, however handsomely, but that's all you get. The studios have complete control on what is or is not in their film (and it is "theirs" once they've purchased it from you). I've never heard of any property owner ever getting any say on film rights once sold to a studio. EVER. If they do have input, it's a courtesy by the director/producer/creative controllers hired by the studios (ie, the case of Lynch and Frank, as an example).
Writers and their work are universally shit upon in the studio system and they are the bottom of the barrel. Just ask Frank Miller or Alan Moore. KJA and BH will be given the exact same treatment.
This is why so many film adaptations have been dragged through the dirt. If the owners knew what spawn would have come from their rights, they likely wouldn't have sold them. But then again, the studios know this and they offer top dollar. Hard for anyone to say no when the studios offer to buy your property for a million dollars
Actually, Frank Miller was one such hold out. He refused to sell any rights for his books to Hollywood. It wasn't until Robert Rodriguez came along with a short film of Sin City that Frank was finally sold on an adaptation.
Digressing, that's the way the studios have worked for countless properties and there's no way Dune is any exception. It'll get bought and paid for and Paramount will run it their way. It's Paramount's own internal and creative decisions we must fear and there is plenty of reasons to fear them. Oh gawd, the many reasons...
Besides, injecting prequel elements into Dune wouldn't be possible since (assuming the HLP is smart) the studios do not own the rights to the prequel books as yet. Now, I've never credited the HLP with an overabundance of brains, but I'd definitely count on their greed to ensure they haven't sold anything "prequel".
SourceAnderson wrote:Director Peter Berg will helm a new version of Dune. Can you tell us about it? What is your involment with this project?
Brian and I are co-producers on the film, which means we will be involved in some of the creative aspects. That's really all I can say right now.
And come to fear them we will, especially if they choose to listen to anything "creative" KJA/BH have to say. As for KJA, what did I say he'd do?GamePlayer wrote:Like I said, the studios have it now and they'll run it their way. As always, it's now Paramount's decisions that are to be feared
Bang! Dead solid perfect! And what do we have but that blow-hard KJA talking up his BS in an interview, just like I said would.GamePlayer wrote:And whatever you do, don't listen to any of the BS chest beating and back slapping that these two (KJA/BH) are going to be posting on their blogs or quoted as saying in the many promotional circuit publications yet to come. They are only merely involved in a long process, but they'll talk it up like they're hitting on a super model way out of their league at a celebrity party that they just happened to be invited to as a courtesy
Our debate of nuances aside, this latest news is black mark #... ah hell, who knows now. I've lost track. Every piece of news about this new Dune film is getting worse and worse, as I feared it would. If there's any hope for this new Dune adaptation, I can only pray I'm dead wrong.Omphalos wrote:And I don't really care what the HLP says about who owns the film now. I don't trust a damn thing that comes out of any of their mouths anymore.
