    Hi everyone, I'm a designer working in sports presentation/entertainment. I've been working at the US Open for the past 6 years and there's a really cool hallway that has posters up for every event year going back to 1978. Obviously I have a ton of thoughts on my own but I would love to discuss what you guys like or don't like or talk any kind of design'y talk here on tildes if you feel like it!

    I read somewhere that they were thinking about making a new adaptation a series rather than trying to fit it into a movie. The old Sci-Fy channel show I guess did it okay, but tv in 2020 is kind of a different animal. I'd be into it because it would keep me in the house and kill some time

    I can understand why the journey to make this into a film is so convoluted. I'm not sure I've ever read anything so dense and epic. I was always sort of keen to the series, and always thought the worm god was just cool imagery. So I did have kind of an internal motivation to get this far, but now that I'm about to dive into God Emperor, I just feel bad for anyone that called it quits after the first book. Frank Herbert had a lot to say, and faithfully adapting this to any kind of screen, I think, is impossible.
