In a great affront to Sting's impact as a thespian, Paramount spent four years planning a remake of Dune. That's over now. Frank Herbert's classic sci-fi book series will not be re-imagined for the silver screen. "Paramount's option has expired and we couldn't reach an agreement," said Richard P. Rubinstein, who holds the rights to the mega-selling title. Damn it! The 1984 Dune movie is a Bad Movie We Despise, but a remake could've ended up in the Bad Movies We Love pantheon. For shame, everyone. [Deadline]
