Kinda disappointed Feyd Rautha isn’t played by a contemporary musician

Trailer is excellent. I'm probably going to be pelted with rocks for this, but I don't quite understand what y'all see in Pugh. I know it's just a trailer, but her delivery here was very straight-forward. No mystique. She seems way too plain for such a sci-fi epic.

The protagonist is named Paul.

Characters either have some wacky sci-fi name, or something like "Paul" or "Duncan Idaho". There's no in between.

According to IMDB, it’s only 4 hours long.

Hoping for 6 but getting 4 seems to be a common issue here.

It's biblical.

Do you like her in other things? I do not get her hype.

She's fine. I certainly don't hate her. Just not convinced that she's the right fit here is all. I'd love for her to prove me wrong!

I get I am 100% the target audience for this, but that looks spectacular. Every shot is perfectly composed.

That's one of the best trailers I've ever seen. And it looks like they are using Walken in a perfect way. Part one was almost entirely a setup for this movie; looks like such a goddamn extravagant pay-off.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
