Artist: Hey, Blue! Check out this banana squash!
Blue: It reminds me of Paul Atreides and Stilgar riding a giant sand worm across the desert planet in Frank Herbert's novel Dune.
Artist: Or Ishmael and Captain Ahab conquering the great white whale in Herman Melville's classic novel Moby Dick.
Blue: Or the great white shark in Jaws.
Artist: Do you think Steven Spielberg was channeling Herman Melville when he filmed Jaws?
Blue: No way! Change the desert of Arrakis to the aqueous regions of Earth, and you've totally got Dune. Steven Spielberg was clearly channeling Frank Herbert. Even the Cybermen know that.
Artist & Blue
