| EWJ/Dune Analysis |
| Perhaps some of you EWJ fans out there have noticed a pattern...a continual barrage of references to a series of books written before many of us were born. The books are grouped under the collective title of "Dune," and have been the subject of a movie and a TV miniseries. Just what is the connection between our beloved Earthworm Jim and the insane adventures of a bunch of guys ten thousand years in the future? First let me present the evidence. |
| Firstly, there's that "I will not fear" chant that Peter recites. For more info, click here. Also there's the fact that Jim is a "great worm," although bearing little resemblance to the Shai-Halud in the books. Of course, there's also the slogan of EWJ 2: "The worm has (re)turned!" The phrase "The worm has turned" was used in Dune occasionally. Also, the archvillain is really, really fat. If you can think of anymore, mail me! |

| What's the point?! |
| Furthermore, just what is the point of the Dune/EWJ connection? Is it meant to prove that one can both like an incomprehensibly complicated, 500-page long book and a silly cartoon? What do you think? Submit your opinion here and it will be posted. |
