Premieres of Dune: Part Two may still be five months away—with an actors' strike currently underway—but things haven't been quiet. On this week's DUNE TALK we address the PG-13 rating and what this means for the movie. Plus, there are different runtime figures listed - which is right? Garin, Johnny, Marcus, and Simon also offer a rundown of recent Dune releases: Dune: Spice Wars 1.0, three great new books to dive into, and tons of collectibles on the way.
