Sandworm
Sandworm
Has there ever been a giant sandworm on the playa like in Tremors or Dune? (If not, why not?)
Not like I'm able to create such a thing, but man would I like to see it!

I remember a camp on the fringe of town that resembled a huge slug....It was made from PVC and shadecloth, and there was a "slugmobile" mobile unit too.
I really like the idea of a GobblerMobile that eats people as it goes.....Like a cross between a Sandworm and the Spectre capsule-eating spaceship from "You Only Live Twice." I can see the drill- As the vehicle overtakes a pedestrian, those already on board begin screaming, and then throw plastic bones out the back....cue loud, prerecorded "BURRRP!".

It's that time of the year for dragons. I love them and think a playadragon would be wonderful.
As if group would be willing to walk around like that.

From what I read, it's less of a "remake" and more of a go back to the original source and redo it. Which might be interesting. There was a thread in General Discussion, but I've forgotten the name. If I have time I'll link it alter.robotland wrote:...I'm a little concerned about the Depp/Burton remake.
