Dune. I never got why people loved Dune so much when I was kid or really even now as an adult. See when I was young I saw that movie with Sting in it, the musician not the professional wrestler and I thought that movie sucked. Spice? What are you talking about spice why is this special. You get older and you meet other people and their all like you need to read this series man it’s the best but for me it’s just that wack movie from the 80s with Sting in it that would come on before Labyrinth on local TV channels. Then I go I see this film called Jodorowsky’s Duneand I see a film that shows all of what we could’ve had by such a forward thinking artist Alejandro Jodorowsky ambitious take on Herbert’s beloved tale. This film really isn’t about Dune at all it’s more about an artist’s journey in creating a piece of only to have the gatekeepers snatch it away from him and his collaborators at the last second because of a lack of faith or fear.

bul·ly: ? ?[bool-ee] Show IPA noun, plural bul·lies, verb, bul·lied, bul·ly·ing, adjective, interjection


A blustering, quarrelsome, overbearing person who habitually badgers and intimidates smaller or weaker people.

That is what a dictionary explanation of bully is. A bully is something we all know. It’s something that has been in pop culture since post war American and invention of TV. From Leave it to Beaver to the Gooch in Diff’rent Strokes to even Peter Parker’s school life before becoming Spider-man. It’s something that has been fed to us as part of growing up in the modern world and all you have to do is just stand up and make a show of force. Well that’s easier said than done. The film Bully by Lee Hirsch shows bullying for what it is today for most kids in America.
