Dog’s Movie House: “Dune: Part 2″ Delivers. . .And Then Some!”
Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog here with a look at one of the most highly anticipated movies of the year. It’s Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune: Part 2” the second half of the adaptation of Frank Herbert’s classic 1965 novel.

As for “Wonka” I’m one of those fuddy-duddies who thinks the only worthwhile adaptation is the classic Gene WIlder film in the seventies. I’ll give this one a watch though! Enjoy the trailers and feel free to comment either down below or on my Facebook Page! So Sayeth The Kendog!
