Dune remake sans Sparkly Robert Pattinson Options

[Peter Everhard]

Had I not actually suffered through that idiot Twilight movie, I would be completely misunderstanding all of the references to Robert Pattinson as Sparkly.

There are a lot of really really stupid things in Twilight, the dumbest has to be 200 year old vampires spending all of those 200 years in high school. However, another one of the really stupid moments in Twilight is Pattinson's Angst Moment, that bedroom scene in Twilight when Pattinson literally turns his head in angst toward the camera suffering from that dilemma that only closet cases and sparkly high school vampires suffer from, i.e., "should I fuck the girl laying on the bed in front of me or no"?

Anywho,

The Sci-fi world has dodged a bullet and it seems that Sparkly Robert Pattinson will NOT be starring in Peter Berg's remake of Dune. It seems to me that The Lovely Lovely James McAvoy is the most obvious choice to star in a Dune remake, since McAvoy did a bang up job in The Children of Dune.

Either James McAvoy or Jamie Dornan for the lead in a Dune remake would be just fine with us.

After months of speculation that Twilight star Robert Pattinson might star in director Peter Berg's upcoming adaptation of Frank Herbert's "Dune," newbie gossip slangers Gossip Cop broke the scoop that Pattinson would be out of either the Dune role or his gig in Bel Ami, the sordid tale of a playboy adapted from Guy de Maupaussant's novel. Naturally, Twi-hards rejoiced at the news that RPattz will keep the role in which he romances ladies left and right, rather than the one in which he puts his hand in a pain box and rides giant space sandworms. Will Dune fans agree? Cinematical
