    For some reason, people were worried about Momoa's Duncan Idaho. Let me just say, he nailed it, and you don't need to worry.
    The man is Duncan Idaho.

      Sure, he might not be up on the same level as Javier Bardem or Josh Brolin, but then again, noone else was either. But, you know, other than the two *living legends*, he did as well as anyone else in the cast.

      Jason makes you believe he is Duncan Idaho, by the scene where he faces the Sardaukar. He knows that on the other side of that door, the deadliest, cruelest, most well equipped warriors in the Galaxy (he hasn't seen the Fremen fight as a group against the Sardaukar) are going to be coming and all he can think of is to get his gloves off, draw his weapons and get out there to stand between them and the people who he loves. You totally believe it and not for a moment do you think of Jason Momoa, all you see is Duncan Idaho the epitome of loyalty, courage and skill determined to kill these Sardaukar and buy time for his Duke and Jessica to escape.

    Couldn't have pictured anyone else more perfect to cast the role. In fact, I could already see Momoa as the "ghola" version of Duncan Idaho in "God Emperor of Dune" especially when Leto II party got ambushed on the bridge and Momoa came back stark naked.
