Episode 3 of Dune: Prophecy scene around a family dinner table

Dune: Prophecy Episode 3 Review

December 4, 2024 K Kennedy Criticism

Episode 3 of Dune: Prophecy slows down for flash-back backstories. It felt quite similar to Game of Thrones, which I like, but I missed the political intrigue and pacing of the first two episodes.

Check out my review of Episode 3 at DuneNewsNet.

New podcast interview! We had a great discussion a New podcast interview! We had a great discussion about Dune on the Machinic Unconscious Happy Hour podcast.

And of course we had to talk about the recent film adaptations! ~See link in bio for different ways to access the podcast~ #Dune #frankherbert #frankherbertsdune #dune2024 #dunemovie #duna #dunabrasil #worldbuilding #sciencefiction #scifi #fantasy #scififantasy #cienciaficción #ficçãocientífica #ficcaocientifica #scifibooks #theory #poststructualism #philosophy
Teens and Dune: What did they have questions about Teens and Dune: What did they have questions about? What piqued their attention the most? Did I convince anyone to read the book? 🤓 In my latest blog, I report back after giving presentations on Dune to junior high/high school classes.

What makes Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon What makes Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon so immersive? Great world-building. I have studied how author George R.R. Martin uses names (like Stark and Targaryen) to develop separate and distinct identities for the characters and feudal houses and to build an immersive, believable world. Check out the article “Names and World-Building in George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones” on ResearchGate. #gameofthrones #houseofdragons #HouseoftheDragon #houseofthedragonseason2 #fantasy #worldbuilding #georgerrmartin #onomastics
What do teens want to know about Dune the book? I’m giving some talks at a local junior high/high school and want to better understand my audience. What are the must-haves I should definitely cover, given the limited timeframe of one hour? [more details on my blog at link in bio] Feedback welcome! 😅 #Dune #FrankHerbert #book #teenage #reading
