Aliens? Replicants? A floating Stellan Skarsgård? SPICE?!?! As Logan and Andy try to make contact with some extraterrestrial visitors, the duo pass the time by discussing DENIS VILLENEUVE'S SCI-FI ADAPTATIONS. The boys cover the French Canadian filmmaker's take on three sci-fi works: a short story (2016's Arrival), a sequel to a Ridley Scott cult classic (2017's Blade Runner 2049), and the classic Frank Herbert novel Dune (the combo of 2021's Dune and 2024's Dune: Part Two). How does the beloved filmmaker grow in the span of eight years? What choices does he make in the adaptation process for each project? How did he convince a movie studio to fund TWO Dune films?!?! Find out on this sandy new episode of ODD TRILOGIES!
