I am going to limit myself to one Dune meta rant per 24 hours but while I work up the longer 'Bullfighting imagery in Villeneuve's Dune' breakdown post I am slightly obsessed with the thought of one of Goya's much lesser known pieces:
La Tauromaquia No. 18: Temeridad de Martincho en la plaza de Zaragoza
Which shows a famous Matador showing off for the crowd in the arena by meeting a charging bull head-on at short distance, while calmly sitting, with his feet shackled together so he cannot run.
And I uh... I dunno. I have just been thinking about this piece. And if anyone wants to draw or write or otherwise create anything inspired by it please DM me. I may have nothing but every Matador, painter, & poet needs a patron.

For those who are not hard Sci-fi fans, to help you understand just how monumental of a triumph Dune Part 2 is,
This is the Lord of the Rings of Sci-fi. The Empire Strikes Back of sequels. I haven’t been this impacted by a cinematic experience since The Return of the King. Every Sci-fi film made after this will likely be compared to it. It will inspire a generation of filmmakers. I know someone is sitting in the theatre experiencing this movie who now realizes they have a passion for film and sci-fi, and that is a beautiful thing. This is what the experience of seeing a film should be. Movies can change you—long live cinema.

"There were a couple of scenes [in Dune (2021)] that were all about the training technique. There was one scene that I was quite sad they cut away. There are physical training methods, where Jessica teaches Paul the art of fighting with the knives that he later uses on Jamis [the Fremen warrior played by Babs Olusanmokun]" - Rebecca Ferguson for The Hollywood Reporter
