Just another Friday.
Oct. 29th, 2021 11:03 am++ While I still haven't seen it yet (soon, very soon), Dune has been greenlit for getting its second part, which honestly thank god. It would have been hilariously disastrous if the movie didn't do well enough to warrant the second movie to complete the adaptation of the book, thereby continuing the ongoing curse of Dune adaptations. I know the director seemed confident that it would succeed, but it just seems odd to not secure that possibility prior, or even bother with filming the entirety of it before splitting it into two films. I know it might be an industry thing, perhaps he couldn't have negotiated any other way, but still. Nevertheless, I'm glad that its happening, especially since the second half of the book is where shit gets even more wild and interesting.
++ Critical Role started its third campaign, and while it's only been one (now two) episodes I'm digging it so far. It's too early to tell what's going to happen, but I like how they're bringing in familiar characters (from one-shots and EXU) with newer ones being created, so I'm curious at how it's all going to come together in that sense. Furthermore, I love the new setup they have. They're finally back sitting together at a table! They've been safely socially distant since they came back after months from quarantine last year, and you can tell that they've missed sitting next to each other. So yeah, I'm excited to see what they have planned.
Additionally, I mentioned before that I was starting to watch Dimension 20, and I've been really enjoying myself with Fantasy High. I love the way Brennan Lee Mulligan DMs, his players always seem to have fun and I really like the rapport they have with him and each other. Which is why I want to share a particular clip, in spirit of Halloween. You don't need any context for it, just the way things are described setting up the scene, the tension that builds up, the creepy voice Brennan has and the player's reactions to it all, especially the ending where they beg him to move onto something else (as Lou Wilson says, "We even went to Hell and it wasn't that bad"). So, enjoy!
