spoilers abound
- I am now caught up on Dune: Prophecy, just in time for tonight’s episode
- (which I may very well wind up watching next weekend at this rate)
- This was another oddly-paced episode, with a lot of characters standing around talking about how dire their various situations are and then promptly…walking around a bit (sometimes to a different room!) and then continuing to talk
- And for a six-episode series, it doesn’t feel great that this was so much filler
- It does have a really cool (and horrifying) expansion/alternate version of the Bene Gesserit genetic memory thing that is suitably haunting
- Oh, and of course the prominent Atreides is secretly involved in a rebellion plot which includes a Fremen woman because the Atreides can’t actually be evil and classist. Oh and also the Fremen woman is secretly a member of the Sisterhood because 1) plots on plots on plots and 2) this universe is approximately the size of a food court.
