Sand invading the Dune: Part Two red carpet in London inspired plenty of jokes

At the London premiere of the hotly anticipated sci-fi sequel Dune: Part Two, the Arrakis-themed red carpet display, well, made a bit of a mess.

As the dunes of the planet Arrakis are understandably covered in sand in the movie (hence the sandworms), the film’s premiere featured a sandy walkway for guests to get the full Dune experience.

As Anakin Skywalker reminded us in another sci-fi sequel, sand does tend to get everywhere, and one of the dutiful workers staffing the event broke out shop vacuum to make sure the red carpet wasn’t too sandy.

It feels like a mundane bit of procedure, but it is kind of funny that the red carpet at the premiere of Dune: Part Two got sand all over it.

Some censored NSFW language to follow. 

As you can imagine, the sands of Arrakis getting all over the Dune: Part Two red carpet inspired plenty of jokes.
