If anything could make steampunk jump the shark, it just might be Steampunk Palin. Ugh.

I just watched David Lynch's Dune again, for the first time in many years (It was actually a decent fan-edit using footage from the "TV version" to bolster the theatrical release, but I digress).

Two things occurred to me:
- The costume and set design are so amazingly steampunk. It was really a pleasure to look at them.
- The movie was much stupider than I remembered.

Worms. Spice. Is there a connection?

The concept is just stupid. Palin loves oil.

Lynch's Dune is an aesethically beautiful movie best watched with the sound off.

This is what the set looks like for "Around the World in 80 Days" here:

Speaking of the sexiness of steampunk... This reads kinda steampunky to me (the faucet and the background), and it's definitely sexy:
