[QUOTE]Originally posted by Masao: [QB] Does anyone remember a Saturday morning cartoon from the mid or late 1980s called "The Mighty Orbots"? It was about a group of five robots who combined into a big robot at the end of each episode to fight the villain of the week. It was a sort of Americanized anime, but had some good SF stories. I used to watch it every week (I was a college student at the time). Re: Lynch's Dune. I think that most fans of the book were expecting something like Lawrence of Arabia. At least that's the picture I had when reading the book. Instead, Lynch gave us his vision colored by his obsessions with physical deformity, bodily secretions, and decayed industrial technology. I like his movies, but in retrospect, he was the wrong guy for such an epic story. I suppose he was chosen on the strength of "The Elephant Man," which is a completely different type of movie. I thought the technical design was also pretty bad: none of the ships or other tech made any impression. We can all lament the failed attempt by Jodoworsky to film Dune with designs by Moebius and HR Giger! Maybe someone will try to film this story again in a few years (but hopefully not Devlin and Emmerrich!) [/QB][/QUOTE]
