alexandralThe Children of dune
I am feeling rather down – there is something wrong with my eyes. At first I thought that I am just tired as I have been working long hours overtime on the computer but yesterday I had to admit that the eyes should have gotten better already. They are red, teary, swollen and feel like they are full of sand. I had a prayer at the church yesterday and they are much better today but still feel like I better have some rest. But how one has an eye-rest? Anything even remotely interesting involves eyes! (and this is the source of Alexandral's feelings of deprivation!)
But I swear I'll have some eye rest just after I post "The Children of Dune" screencaps. :D I started watching these mini-series from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
baleanoptera's rec and though they are flawed "The Children of Dune" are intensely, insanely beautiful. I used to be a huge fan of the books with their mind-boggling complexity and "The children of Dune" is probably the best adaptation so far. I haven't finished watching it yet (see – EYE REST!) but I made some screencaps, I just could not stop. I am not usually not a fan of intense yellow colour but it all changed after I beheld golden Leto Artredis (aka James McAvoy) and his sister..So iconable !

A lot of beautiful pics... "Children of Dune" - is it the 2d novel of the series? Where Duncan Idaho comes back? Well, I've read some novels of the "Dune" series, but never liked them so much, I confess. The stories were too cruel for my taste. The only novel I liked was the second one...may be because Idaho was the only character in "Dune" I really liked.

Date: 2007-09-28 09:41 am (UTC)"Children of Dune" miniseries cover two books - "Dune Messiah" (2nd book) and "Children of Dune" (3rd book) . The second one is where Duncan comes back and it is the first episode in these eries. Duncan Idaho is sooooo fabulous !(See the last picture).
