OMG, I can't wait! I love his other movies. I grew up watching Dune on VHS. I picked up the Blu-ray in the $7.88 Walmart bargain bin a few years ago, and I was pleasantly surprised at how well it held up. I mean, how can you go wrong with Sir Patrick Stewart rocking a quasi-mullet?

I own both the David Lynch version and the mini-series from 2000 on Blu Ray.

Just one of the many reasons I cyber stalk you, Pie. Which reminds me, I need you to move that plant you recently placed by your kitchen windows.

My cousin/room mate in college was a huge X Files fan. I tried to like it at the time, but I couldn't get into it. I should probably give it another go. I think they finally remastered the series and released it on Blu-ray, which would be the way to go.

its on disney plus if you don't want to buy it

I need to just break down and subscribe. Before you blink, it will be up to mid double digits per month to subscribe, lol.

Originally posted by Silky Johnson I recently read the Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy (hard sci-fi, Chinese author, BEST fiction I've read in ages), and one of the technologies in the series is "hibernation", cryogenic tech they use to skip through time. Very cool stuff.

I have that sitting on my Kindle but I've not had time lately to get stuck into it. I've heard it's excellent. Obviously good enough that Netflix are making a series based on it, with the GoT showrunners.

It's next on my list. Probably. I at least have to read them by the time the show comes out so I can be one of those smug dickheads and be like "oh, you haven't read the books? It's explained so much better there" like I definitely did a few times with The Expanse.
