I just saw the first movie with a friend and the thought went through my mind. I’m not really sure what something being derivative means, so I looked it up and apparently it’s more subjective than I realized.

What are your thoughts?

    I can see where he’s coming from, since it deals with the usual “chosen one, prophecies etc” stuff. What I liked about dune was that the visions aren’t of the actual future, just possible ones. From what I’ve read on the plots to come, it gets more and more bizzarre, which probably won’t feel very derivative.

    I was disappointed with the directing in the sequel though.
