Dune is a 1984 American epic space opera film written and directed by David Lynch and based on the 1965 Frank Herbert novel Dune. It was filmed at the Churubusco Studios in Mexico City. The soundtrack was composed by the rock band Toto, with a contribution from Brian Eno. Its large ensemble cast includes Kyle MacLachlan's film debut as young nobleman Paul Atreides, Patrick Stewart, Brad Dourif, Dean Stockwell, Virginia Madsen, José Ferrer, Sean Young, Sting, Linda Hunt, and Max von Sydow.

The setting is the distant future, chronicling the conflict between rival noble families as they battle for control of the extremely harsh desert planet Arrakis, also known as Dune. The planet is the only source of the drug melange (spice), which allows prescience and is vital to space travel, making it the most essential and valuable commodity in the universe. Paul Atreides is the scion and heir of a powerful noble family, whose inheritance of control over Arrakis brings them into conflict with its former overlords, House Harkonnen. Paul is also possibly the Kwisatz Haderach, a messianic figure expected by the Bene Gesserit sisterhood.

After the novel's initial success, attempts to adapt Dune as a film began in 1971. A lengthy process of development followed throughout the 1970s, during which Arthur P. Jacobs, Alejandro Jodorowsky, and Ridley Scott unsuccessfully tried to bring their visions to the screen. In 1981, executive producer Dino De Laurentiis hired Lynch as director.

The film underperformed at the box office, grossing $30.9 million from a $40–42 million budget. At least four versions have been released worldwide. Lynch largely disowned the finished film and had his name removed or changed to pseudonyms. The film has developed a cult following,[4][5] but opinion varies between fans of the novel and fans of Lynch's films.[6]

Prepare for a wild excursion into the heart of Belizean jungles and the ruins of Laminai as we recount an adventure that's part comedy, part thriller, and all real-life in this episode of Sounds Awesome Patreon. 🌴🐒

Join us as we navigate the twists and turns of a spontaneous journey with Fatty and his wife, Lisa, as they set out to explore ancient Mayan ruins. It's a tale of rum, unexpected detours, and a quest to uncover the mysteries of a civilization long past... but with a twist that's pure Sounds Awesome Patreon. 🍹🗺️

From the sweltering heat of the tarmac to the eerie calls of the jungle, every moment is an unpredictable ride. Picture this: a couple, slightly buzzed and high on life (and a little something else), suddenly find themselves face to face with nature's rowdy teenagers - a band of juvenile howler monkeys making a ruckus that would make any horror movie proud. 🌳🔊

And just when you think it's all fun and games, we pivot to a camping escapade with Desmond and Kelly, where a night under the stars turns into a heart-pounding dash for survival... or so they thought. What's lurking in the dark? A bear, a moose, or perhaps something a bit less... ferocious? 🏕️😱

So, buckle up, dear Patreons, for laughter, suspense, and the kind of stories you can only get here on Sounds Awesome Patreon. It's an episode that reminds us that sometimes, the greatest adventures come with a side of the unexpected - and a good dose of humility. 🎙️😂

And if you've got your own wild travel stories or close encounters of the raccoon kind, share them with us at soundawesomepatreon@gmail.com. Until next time, keep your wits about you and your machete closer... just in case. 🛶🌲

🚀 "The Weeping Angels Take Manhattan: A Doctor Who Deep Dive" 🚀

Join Desmond McNeese and Scott Lifton as they venture into the beloved universe of "Doctor Who" with the critically acclaimed episode "Blink." This isn't your typical Time Lord adventure – it's an episode that's light on the Doctor but heavy on the time-bending thrills, featuring the eerie and iconic Weeping Angels.

Carrie Mulligan stars as Sally Sparrow in this Doctor Who-lite episode, where statues move in the blink of an eye and messages transcend time. We dissect the paradoxes, the bootstrap conundrums, and the surprisingly philosophical implications of being zapped back in time. 🗿⏳

As Desmond and Scott peel back the layers of this fan-favorite episode, they grapple with the ethical dilemmas posed by the show and question the effectiveness of DVD Easter eggs as a narrative device. From the haunting "Don't blink" warning to the peculiar time loop that ensnares every character, we explore how "Blink" stands out in the Whovian canon and why it's cited as one of the series' best despite its unusual detachment from the titular hero.

🎙 Listener Debate: Is it better to be sent back in time against your will or to face a more traditional demise? And does "Blink" truly deserve its place in the pantheon of great time travel stories? Email us your thoughts at timepoppod@gmail.com and join the temporal discussion.

Prepare to loop back into the time-twisting world of collegiate chaos with Time Pop's latest episode, where we dive headfirst into the mind-bending sequel "Happy Death Day 2U"! 🎂🔁

In this episode, Desmond McNeese and Scott Lifton dissect the 2019 follow-up to the slasher-meets-Groundhog-Day hit that defies genre boundaries. Join us as we unravel the quantum conundrums and existential enigmas that Jessica Rothe's character, Tree, faces when she's flung into another dimension where the stakes are higher, the science is wonkier, and the deaths are... well, just as inventive. 🧬🔪

From the Sisyphean struggles with a quantum cooling reactor to the heart-wrenching decision between love and family, "Happy Death Day 2U" leaps from horror to sci-fi, with a sprinkle of comedy for good measure. We'll explore how this sequel manages to up the ante on the time loop trope, all while keeping us guessing who's behind the baby mask this time. 👶🎭

🎧 Bonus Content: We debate the merits of the film's deeper dive into the mechanics of its time loop and how it sets up (or doesn't) a potential third entry in the franchise. Plus, we share our thoughts on the film's balance of humor and horror, and whether it stands up to its predecessor.

💌 Listener Engagement: Got a time loop tale of your own or thoughts on the film's multi-dimensional mayhem? Email us at timepoppod@gmail.com and join the time-traveling conversation.

Get ready for a wild ride through the mystical underbelly of San Francisco's Chinatown as we unpack the cult classic "Big Trouble in Little China" on this thrilling episode of Sounds Awesome Patreon. 🐉🏮 Join Desmond McNeese and the crew as they reminisce about the good ol' days of VHS tapes and family movie nights with this 1986 John Carpenter gem. Starring Kurt Russell as the swaggering, wise-cracking Jack Burton, we explore the movie's chaotic blend of action, fantasy, and a truckload of 80s cheese. 🚚🧀

From underground mazes to questionable potions, we dissect the bizarre world where ancient Chinese sorcery meets modern-day machismo. With each plot twist and karate kick, we're transported to a realm where nothing is quite what it seems, and where the real hero might just be the sidekick. 🥋✨ Dive into the debate over whether Jack Burton is the true white savior or just a lovable buffoon in the right place at the wrong time. And let's not forget the unforgettable showdowns, complete with lightning bolts, floating eyeballs, and a monster that gives new meaning to "hairy situation." 🌩️👀

As we unravel the layers of this awesomely terrible flick, we also share personal tales that rival the escapades of the film's characters, with a chilling real-life connection to a notorious serial killer that hits too close to home. 😱 Unearth the original script's western roots and join us for a hearty laugh as we recall the film's most cringeworthy one-liners and scenes that defy explanation. 🤠🎬

So, dust off your VHS player, pour yourself a mystery blender drink, and let the nostalgia wash over you like dirty alley rainwater. Remember, in the labyrinthine streets of Chinatown, adventure (and a bit of absurdity) lurks around every corner. 🍜🕶️ For more epic film discussions and off-the-wall anecdotes, stay tuned to Sounds Awesome Patreon.

🎬 "Synchronicity: A Love Story Across Timelines" 🎬

In this mind-bending foray into the world of indie sci-fi, we dissect the 2015 film "Synchronicity" - a tale that weaves together time travel, romance, and the chilling consequences of playing with the fabric of the universe. Join Desmond and Scott as they unravel the complex narrative where every choice spins a new thread in the tapestry of reality.

Directed by Jacob Gentry, "Synchronicity" takes us on a journey with physicist Jim Beale, played by Chad McKnight, as he grapples with the discovery of a wormhole that leads to parallel universes. But when love enters the equation, Jim finds himself in a deadly race against time itself. Featuring the legendary Michael Ironside, this film is a low-budget gem that punches well above its weight class.

As our hosts navigate the murky waters of alternate realities, they confront the haunting idea that somewhere out there, another version of yourself might just be your greatest adversary. Will Jim's quest for scientific breakthrough spiral into a vortex of self-destruction, or will he find solace in the arms of the enigmatic Abby (Brianne Davis)?
