So which AD character am I?

It's been Dune before

From CHUD, a Dune remake is in the winds? Maybe? It seems very early in the piece to believe anything and given past attempts, I wouldn't rely on anything actually happening. In the end, Dune isn't a very visual story, I think. Don't get me wrong, there are some absolutely iconic images which will always look spectacular if done well - the eruption of a mature sandworm from a dune comes to mind - but the meat of the story is a very internal one. I love the world of Dune, just in case you wonder, it's just not good material to adapt to movie, in my opinion. We shall see - or not as the case may be!

Descent 2 on the way?

According to Moviehole's interview with Neil Marshall, director of the first one, there will be a sequel but not with him as director. I loved the book that the movie was (loosely) based on but managed to miss Descent when it was in the movies. Must put it on my To-be-seen-very-soon-on-DVD list!
