Considering at least two of those movies were much more poorly received only drives home the snub.
It’s not as thoughDune: Part Twowas overlooked by the Oscars voting body, either.
Brolin declared the film to be “masterful” and Villeneuve as “one of our master filmmakers.”
For his part,James Cameron also gaveDune: Part Twohigh praise, calling it “pure cinema.”
Surprisingly, Villeneuve has been recognized for his directorial vision only once.
Dune: Part Two continues the epic saga of Paul Atreides as he allies with Chani and the Fremen. Pursuing retribution for his family’s devastation, Paul grapples with a significant decision impacting his personal desires and the universe’s future, attempting to avert a dire destiny that only he anticipates.
