1905 Movie Network News Recently, at the screening of the 70mm film IMAX version of "Tenet", two famous Hollywood science fiction film directors, Christopher Nolan and Denis Villeneuve, had a conversation. Nolan revealed that he has watched "Dune 2" and gave high praise to the film.
As we all know, Nolan is a fan of Star Wars. One of his favorite "Star Wars" movies is "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back". During the conversation, he said that "Dune 2" is like "The Empire Strikes Back". Nolan also revealed: The film is super immersive and has a grainy feel. "Dune 2" is an extremely exciting expansion of the content of "Dune 1".
Villeneuve replied: This is a huge compliment to myself, because watching "The Empire Strikes Back" was one of the most intense movie-going experiences in his life. Villeneuve, who was about 11 years old at the time, rode a bicycle 25 kilometers to see the film, and the cinema owner allowed them to watch the film twice in a row that afternoon. Villeneuve also praised Nolan as, in my opinion, the best and definitely the most important filmmaker of our time.
