Like the piscine Guild Navigator who gets wheeled out in a tank at the start of the movie, David Lynch‘s adaptation of the Frank Herbert novel Dune is neither fish nor fowl. Lynch gets to play with some rather dense world-building, but Herbert’s critique of charismatic leaders gets pushed to the side while the demands of ’80s sci-fi fantasy don’t allow the director to create what would later become his signature dream states. As a result, Lynch’s Dune pleased no one, least of all Lynch himself. And while the film has its fans, especially in light of Denis Villeneuve‘s more faithful blockbuster, it remains an outlier in both Lynch’s oeuvre and in the history of Dune adaptations.
Still, the legend goes that if studio meddling and post-production issues not come to bear, Lynch would have been able to put more of his stamp on the sequel Dune II.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may have walked away from royal life in March 2020, but they continue to utilize some of the perks that come with being a member of the House of Windsor. One of these perks is using their duke and duchess of Sussex titles. One writer claims this is the “only currency” they have left.
A royal writer says Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s titles are the ‘only currency’ they have left
Writer Kara Kennedy spoke to GBNews about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s use of their royal titles, despite exiting their roles as senior royals. She claims the royal link is the “only currency” they have left as they navigate life outside Kensington Palace.

Meghan Markle’s name has been in the headlines nearly every day for the past few months. But it hasn’t been for reasons the Duchess of Sussex would like.
In May, her and Prince Harry’s story about a “near-catastrophic car chase” through Manhattan was disputed by the NYPD, the city’s mayor, and a taxi driver. The following month, Spotify chose not to renew Meghan’s Archetypes podcast, and one of the company’s executives publicly labeled the Sussexes as “f****** grifters.” Then, the luxury brand Dior quickly refuted a claim that the fashion house was signing the former Suits actor to be the face of its brand. Moreover, the couple’s Netflix docuseries titled Harry & Meghan failed to receive any Emmy nomination. In addition, there’s been no shortage of rumors that the pair’s marriage is in trouble and they could be headed for Splitsville.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have apparently been exiled by the Hollywood elite. At least, that’s the claim in the British press after the former royals were majorly snubbed by their new social circle.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex — who moved to a multi-million dollar mansion in the luxurious community of Montecito, California, after stepping down as senior working royals — didn’t score an invite to Oprah Winfrey’s recent 69th birthday party. Three years after Megxit, it appears that leaving the royal family hasn’t “paid off” for the couple.

One year after stepping back from their roles within the royal family, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sat down for a bombshell primetime special with former talk show host Oprah Winfrey.
Lady O also attended the Sussexes’ royal wedding in 2018, worked with Harry on his Apple TV project The Me You Can’t See, and today they reside in the same Montecito neighborhood which has led many to believe that they are pretty close. Meghan has even referred to the journalist in the past as a “friend” and “confidant.” So questions were raised when the duke and duchess weren’t on guestlist for Oprah’s recent bash.

In the last few months, there’s been more public discussion than ever about fairness, transparency, and opportunity in the music business.
If you’re willing to read on for a couple of minutes — and trust that this middle-aged white guy awkwardly quoting 2020 protest songs is worth listening to — I’m going to make a commitment to invest in that improved music business. A commitment with real dollar bills attached to do it.
“It can’t change overnight, but we gotta start somewhere.”
First, some background: I’m not a Vc.
