"Mama stronger than I think..." The movie really undersells Jessica. The scene near the end where Stilgar says "Why didn't you say you were a Weirding woman?!" is the only mention of the weirding way, which is one of the coolest parts of the Bene Gesserit. It's basically super-fast motion by thinking about where you want to be and, through a combination of Prana-Bindu physical conditioning and a very mild time dilation from spice use, to move there faster than others can track. When two Bene Gesserit fight without shields, it's basically a mind battle to see who can outmaneuver the other.
@@MrHartApart Possibly. But being bound would prevent its use if he doesn't know how to free himself. And Paul's spice exposure isn't really super high at this point in the story. The weirding way could have been a big part of Part 2 but is almost completely forgotten.
@@LordVolkov tbh I did not like the second movie. show a scene, start to show substance, jump cut to a new scene with new people. OVER AND OVER. I was told it's kind of like that in the books so I'm planning on doing a double dune Saturday when the new one's available on prime.
@@MrHartApart The book lingers much longer on important scenes, but speeds by a lot of small stuff at times - like there's a bunch of stuff that all happens during a time skip.
God, Villenueve's visual style is so refreshingly artistic in a world of horribly bland CGI overload. Love the way he moves the camera, and the shot composition is second to none.
I love this reaction bro; you’ve figured out the plot, the houses and organisations, you’re invested in the score, characters, writing, action, visuals, etc. It’s great to see new fans. Also you got most of the plot details that are heavily involved in the books. Can’t wait for your part two reaction!
“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn my inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
Jamis was the man from his visions who offered to teach him. Paul sees the future, but remember what Yoda said: "Always in motion is the future". The future you see today may not be the future you see tomorrow.
39:16 "Paul's first kill was a black guy" Holy moly. I almost spit my drink out!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I've watched this movie 10 times and I never picked up on that joke! 😂😂😂
Just for some context on how important the Spice fields are; space travel is so expensive and valuable, only the Spacing Guild can do it; all the Great Houses and even The Emperor himself can only _borrow_ space travel. The Atreides ships park inside the Guild super-ships to leave their star system. In the book just to put it in perspective, it's explained: Even if the Harkonnens were parked right next to the Atreides ship on their way across the galaxy, the Harkonnens wouldn't dare attack them, not in a million years; because doing so would mean getting permanently banned from your Spacing Guild privileges, which is the same thing as being banned from _all_ space travel, period. The Harkonnens may be making all the spice but only the Guild can use it to make all this space travel possible. And the Guild has the Emperor by the balls to make sure no one holds all that spice hostage. The Harkonnens have no beef with the Guild, they just want to make themselves Emperor; this means they're predictable and easy-to-control bodyguards over all that spice. Atreides, on the other hand, are too popular and close to unifying the Houses against the Emperor, so the Emperor figures "Put them in charge of Dune; Leto is a nice guy but too weak to actually do anything; the Harkonnens will predictably get salty and easily kill off the Duke. . . . Harkonnens remember I'm the boss who can take their toy away whenever I want; the Great Houses see Leto die and nope out of doing anything revolutionary for a while. Win-win." What no one counted on is that Paul is crazier than the Harkonnens.
Mongolian throat singing is what the guy was doing in the rain. Definitely check out more of it. There's a band called The Hu that does it with folk metal.
in a serious movie like this one of the funniest stuff i've ever seen is when Duncan is stealing the ship, like 5 or 6 Harkonnen soldiers approach him, he nodiffs 3 and shouts "TO HELL, DOGS !!!" and the others just walk away 🤣🤣🤣 you don't see that in action movies often, they were just like "aight bro u can have it, they ain't payin me enough to die"
@@system0fadowner251 i know that, i'm just saying u don't see that in movies often 😁 like mfs still attack John Wick after he smoked like 300 people in a row
This. It almost seemed like you paused the film when you wanted to say something. So many reaction videos they talk over the dialog constantly and miss important stuff. Great review. Subscribed.
I love that Stilgar only sheathes his knife _after_ the Duke says he can come in with it; the man was *_ready_* to kill everyone there if they tried to take it from him.
I think it was in its sheath the whole time. I think he took the knife (sheath and all) off his belt when they tried to take it from him and he was just tucking it back into the belt once they stopped trying to take it from him. It's fremen tradition that you don't sheath a crysknife unless it has tasted blood (the scene where they all cut themselves under the gloves before putting their knives away before Jamis invokes the right of tahaddi nods to this). Stilgar didn't do that in the scene where he meets the Atreides the first time.
Bene Gesserit were supposed to have only daughters. That's true so their power remained in their order. They has the powet to choose however. Jessica because of her love to Leto Atreides decided to give birth to a male child. He wanted an heir so she agreed to it.
We've seen massive ships in science fiction but rarely does the large scale stand out. Dennis Villanueva did an amazing job showing how big the scale of the Dune universe was. The ships look as massive as I imagined when reading the book twenty years ago.
Dune Part Two is already available to watch on streaming I think seen a few reactions have already been posted on TH-cam so it's out you should watch it soon as possible.
Usually visions in movies are always accurate. In Dune it's different, the visions are glimpses of different choices Paul could make. It's like having hints in a video game, what to avoid and what to aim for. But it's not perfect.
True. I’ll add that he sees possible futures. In one future Jamis survives and goes on to teach him a lot of values lessons. It’s from this possible future that Paul learns those lessons despite not following that timeline.
The name Fremen is derived from the name of the first human settlers on Arrakis’ They called themselves “Free Men”. Arrakis is located in a distant part of the Outer Rim of the galaxy. The first settlers wanted to be free of Imperial rule.
When I tell you that THIS is what I have been waiting for!!😃😃😃 Thank you for reacting to this TREASURE of a film! Thank you my friend! This meant a lot to many of us let me tell you. Dune has been a foundational core story for many folks and this was truly a pleasure to see you enjoy this. Thank you so very much 🙏🏻
"this dude duncan rose from the dead" hahahaha you have no idea Definitely Definitiely do part 2 asap! Its out on streaming as of today... "DO IT" (using the voice)
The spit and sweat is completely filtered into pure H2O with their advanced filtration technology, as this is approximately 23,000 years in the future.
4:46 - Thufir Hawat is a Mentat: a human that has been trained to act as a living computer. Humans don't trust machines since the Butlarian Jihad (the Dune series' robot apocalypse). That's why the Spice is so important: only the precognition granted by the Spice allows human navigators the foresight to replace computers with the complexity of FTL travel. 9:13 - Funny you should phrase it that way. 9:40 - Well, she IS the LEADER of the Bene Gesserit... 9:46 - That would rather defeat the purpose of the test. 9:59 - Mama stronger than the movie shows. Even cut in two, this story is too dense to be fully told, and unfortunately one of the things that was short-changed was the Lady Jessica's character building. 11:12 - You put that together pretty well. The Bene Gesserit have spent generations developing their mastery over the human mind and body (with the aid of the Spice, of course). The Voice, their combat style The Weirding Way, and the ability to control their bodies so finely that they can choose the gender of their children are just a few of the skills they've mastered. However, there is a portion of the human subconscious that they cannot explore: a dark place that strikes them with such a deep and visceral fear and revulsion that they any attempt to explore it is driven back. (It's subtly suggested that this is the masculine portion of the human group psyche). The Bene Gesserit believe that if they can breed a male capable of learning their techniques, he would be able to explore this dark place, and so they call him the Kwizacth Hadderach, He Who Can Be All Places. Their breeding program is in it's final stages, and the Bene Gesserit had planned to breed an Atreides daughter with the heir to the Harkonnen and produce the Kwizatch Hadderach, but it hit a snag when Jessica fell so in love with Duke Leto that she gave him a son instead of a daughter. The Gom Jibar test was to ensure that their powers hadn't fallen into the hands of a human based enough to use the powers for their own gain. 13:38 - Nah, the burnt hand earlier was just what Paul THOUGHT was happening to his hand in that box. He was expecting to pull a blackened stump from the box, but like the Reverend Mother said, all that was in the box was _pain._ 14:46 - They were originally planted as a symbol of the dream people once had to make Arakkis green again, but under the Harkonnen it was just a sign of extravagance. 15:21 - Hunter-seekers like this one only have limited room for sensory equipment, so they operate based mainly on movement. It was only Paul's Bene Gesserit training that allowed him to stay still enough that the device didn't strike him down. Only the momentary distraction of the Shadout Mapes gave him the freedom to act, and only the BG training made him fast enough to catch it. 17:28 - As has been said in some versions, remember how precious water is here. What more sign of respect could their be than to sacrifice some of your own water? 18:50 - Just a small note: in the novel, Liet Kynes is a man. In the '84 version of Dune he was played by Max Von Sydow. There was some small drama when it was announced that a woman would be playing the part, but like someone once said, if the role doesn't depend on being a certain gender, casting doesn't matter either. 27:10 - The Baron is a man of his word. He sent Yueh to join his wife. 27:52 - The shield slowed the poison enough for the Baron to float out of range. He only received a fraction of a lethal dose, though he would have died still if no one had come to save him. 29:11 - The filters in the tent are fine enough that any 'organic' flavor the water had would be removed, but the water would still be flat and warm, so it wouldn't be pleasant. 29:17 - Muad-dib, the teacher of children, knower of the ways of the desert. 32:49- Liet Kynes IS killed by the Saudaukar in the book, but it happens off-screen. In the movie, she gets this epic final moment. 38:14 - Well, he WAS, it's just that his trip came true. 39:32 - That's the meaning of Paul's earlier visions of Zamis killing him: killing makes someone a different person. It's as if the old person had died and a new one takes their place. Zamis 'killed' Paul Atreides so that Usul could rise.
Great job on this one. You kept up with a lot of shit. And the visions of the black guy he fought at the end. Those were like a possible future where they were friends.
Maaaaaaannnn... You should TOTALLY do Part 2, then for bonus material; do a screening of the 2000 SciFi mini-series, it is a total made-for-tv version, but it's probably the closest adaptation to the book yet. It elaborates on a LOT of things this version (as amazing as it is!!!) had to present much faster or just skip altogether. SciFi also did Children of DUNE a couple years later too! [It should be available on here for free most times!]
Mr. Video... When Paul is exposed to Spice, he can only see possible futures. So he can see a futures where he starts a Holy War, where Jamis became his Friend and Mentor, Where Chani (Zendaya) kills him... You gotta buckle up for Dune Part 2. IT IS A BANGER!!!!!!
Also speaking of movies back in theaters. Regal theaters are playing the Sony Spider-Man live action movies every Monday. The first one with Toby Maguire was yesterday. Go see the others every Monday for the next few weeks ending with No Way Home in a couple months.
When Paul was suddenly behind Jamis and killed him from there, that was the Weirding Way. Jamis in Paul's visions was going to show him the way of the desert. And by challenging him to a fight to the death, that's what he ended up doing. In the book, Paul, having killed Jamis, had to take responsibility for Jamis' wife and family. And he says in Jamis' memorial that Jamis was his friend. That is the Fremen way. One of the many things that the books go much further into than would be possible on film without a 24 hour movie heavy with exposition. The films are not perfect. But they do a far better job than either the 1984 film or the SciFi Channel miniseries. This story is massive. This film is only the first half of the first of six books.
I still wish they included the scene where Paul cries over him and everyone gathers and touches the tears on his face, in disbelief that he would give his water for a man he just met.
Damn bro ..... So glad I found this newer channel of yours . I recently found your old music reaction channel but noticed its been over a year since you posted there . I was worried something happened to you . Great to see your doing just fine !
You should watch the music video for "Weapon of Choice" by Fatboy Slim. Not even to react to it, just to see. "Walk without rhythm, it wont attract the worm!"
I highly recommend you listen to the dune audiobooks. The original 6 only. They are wild and so good. Everything from star wars to star trek to tremors to beetleguise are inspired by Dune.
Paul's visions are misleading at furst and are just potential futures and often have double meanings. So the guys speaking to him and showing him the way kind of did show him the way of the desert. Through having to kill him. But in an alternate future they could have been friends.
Lady Jessica played by Rebecca Ferguson is featured pretty heavily in the later Mission Impossible movies. You should definitely check out that franchise soon.
Paul hesitated to kill him because he knows he was going to teach him the ways in a possible future. Now that he's dead someone else is going to have to teach him the ways. 👀. I wonder who that'll be.
The fact that our boy wears the bulls head hat actually ties into the book, because it makes reference to the bull statue, or rather the bulls head on the wall. I forget exactly why in the book, but it’s specifically shot in the movie for a couple seconds I think before the bene gesserit training and they also make another specific shot of it getting boxed up. It’s a reference to House Atreides and the father, but someone here will correct me, I’m sure. I just find it funny that Leo’s wearing a hat with the Bull on it too.
Loved watching your reaction man. You understood and kept up extremely well. This and Part 2 are movies that you have to let yourself become lost in because every dialogue, every scene, every facial expression has a purpose and with the music it's such feeling experience to keep up. I hope you watch Part 2 soon because it's even better and more intense and emotional. Looking forward to watching with you.
One of the best sci fi I've seen since end game hands down. Seen this movie like 5 times, par t2 done watched it 4 times now just came out on streaming lol Saw in theater two times! Mr video is in luck as part 2 came out today!
My GUY this is a good one, you gotta see part 2 and there is a part 3 in the works You seem like they type that reads and if so i HIGHLY advise reading the series by frank Herbert 💯💯
I had a theory when I first read the book that use special breathing practices to make their body alkaline or acidic to get the acquired gender of their babies. 11:34
30:22 they’re distilling their water. You might not know this about stillsuits but they can 💩 in their suit and it can distill the water and moisture in it. As drinkable water 🤢
They did an excellent job of showing how deadly the sardaukar are. The atreides were easily killing the harkonnen, showing clear superiority over the harkonnen soldiers. However the moment the sardaukar joined the fight, they wiped out the atreides with relative ease, demonstrating their superiority over the atreides.
when you said “Pauls first kill…. and it was a black guy” caught me so off guard during that emotional scene I couldn’t help but laugh lmao. But I’m glad you were able to understand pretty much the whole plot of the movie.
Dude, the way you notice things and interpret them is really impressive. You keep up, get the plot, the tone, the motives... It also means that the movie and the filmmaking are well done. Good on you nonetheless :)
I know you don’t really react to any documentaries but I would recommend Jodorowsky’s Dune considering how influential it was in today’s culture despite that version of Dune never being made for being too ambitious at the time
PART 2 IMMEDIATELY 🤘🏻🔥🍻
THIS!
SILENCE!!! (BASS)
But the aspect ratio 😢😢
Isn’t it still at the movies?
@@misskatlee It is streaming now.
"Using the Voice on me and I'm not even in the move." That's why I watch your reactions! You have really good reactions.
best reaction from the voice among all reactors
"Mama stronger than I think..."
The movie really undersells Jessica. The scene near the end where Stilgar says "Why didn't you say you were a Weirding woman?!" is the only mention of the weirding way, which is one of the coolest parts of the Bene Gesserit.
It's basically super-fast motion by thinking about where you want to be and, through a combination of Prana-Bindu physical conditioning and a very mild time dilation from spice use, to move there faster than others can track. When two Bene Gesserit fight without shields, it's basically a mind battle to see who can outmaneuver the other.
I like what they did with her character in Part 2.
wait so at around 25:20 where we zoom in to see Paul "shaking" is that him weirding?
@@MrHartApart Possibly. But being bound would prevent its use if he doesn't know how to free himself. And Paul's spice exposure isn't really super high at this point in the story. The weirding way could have been a big part of Part 2 but is almost completely forgotten.

God, Villenueve's visual style is so refreshingly artistic in a world of horribly bland CGI overload. Love the way he moves the camera, and the shot composition is second to none.
Even DVs cgi looks practically shot
You really gotta credit that to his cinematographer. Greig Fraser. Every movie that Greig Fraser has worked on looks incredible.
I love this reaction bro; you’ve figured out the plot, the houses and organisations, you’re invested in the score, characters, writing, action, visuals, etc. It’s great to see new fans. Also you got most of the plot details that are heavily involved in the books. Can’t wait for your part two reaction!
It took me a min plus explanation by my friend who’s a dune fan to understand the first part. I got the 2nd part easier 😂
The real test comes with how he interprets part 2 but hes picking up the plot much quicker than many ive seen
He is the Lisan Al-Ghaib!
Lady Jessica is throwing gang signs, and the Fremen are C walking
😂😂
Messing with the Baron's Spice is like messing with his emotion.
“I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn my inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.”
That burnt hand you saw was what Paul's hand felt like in the box.
Jamis was the man from his visions who offered to teach him. Paul sees the future, but remember what Yoda said: "Always in motion is the future". The future you see today may not be the future you see tomorrow.

38:14 - Well, he WAS, it's just that his trip came true.
39:32 - That's the meaning of Paul's earlier visions of Zamis killing him: killing makes someone a different person. It's as if the old person had died and a new one takes their place. Zamis 'killed' Paul Atreides so that Usul could rise.
Dude, trust us when we say.. DRINK THE WORM JUICE!!!
PAUSE!

“They tried and died.”
Great job on this one. You kept up with a lot of shit. And the visions of the black guy he fought at the end. Those were like a possible future where they were friends.
“Arrakis runs on Duncan”
The entire galaxy runs on Duncan lol
Maaaaaaannnn... You should TOTALLY do Part 2, then for bonus material; do a screening of the 2000 SciFi mini-series, it is a total made-for-tv version, but it's probably the closest adaptation to the book yet. It elaborates on a LOT of things this version (as amazing as it is!!!) had to present much faster or just skip altogether. SciFi also did Children of DUNE a couple years later too! [It should be available on here for free most times!]
Great reaction ❤😊
Oh dang. So excited that you watched this and looking forward to you watching part 2.
Mr. Video... When Paul is exposed to Spice, he can only see possible futures. So he can see a futures where he starts a Holy War, where Jamis became his Friend and Mentor, Where Chani (Zendaya) kills him... You gotta buckle up for Dune Part 2. IT IS A BANGER!!!!!!
“Spice gave him premonition?”
lol, I’ve been re-reading this book for 30 years. I love seeing how new people respond to the story.
Part 2 is streaming now
Denis Villeneuve is a SciFi Jedi.
DUNE IS SO FARKING GOOOOOD!!
Yes sir.
That mouse IS trying to tell em.
The sleeper has awakened!!! Don't wait on Part 2. You'll enjoy it, especially on the Melanjuana Leo 😉
After Part 2, watch the 1984 Dune. It's crazy.
you walk on a new world every day it's never the same as the day before and neither are you
Also speaking of movies back in theaters. Regal theaters are playing the Sony Spider-Man live action movies every Monday. The first one with Toby Maguire was yesterday. Go see the others every Monday for the next few weeks ending with No Way Home in a couple months.
Dune Part 2 is out and you're gonna love it
"That ain't cool Harkenen!" This dude so adorably likeable! No Diddy.
Not the Sardookie😂
When Paul was suddenly behind Jamis and killed him from there, that was the Weirding Way.
Jamis in Paul's visions was going to show him the way of the desert. And by challenging him to a fight to the death, that's what he ended up doing. In the book, Paul, having killed Jamis, had to take responsibility for Jamis' wife and family. And he says in Jamis' memorial that Jamis was his friend. That is the Fremen way. One of the many things that the books go much further into than would be possible on film without a 24 hour movie heavy with exposition. The films are not perfect. But they do a far better job than either the 1984 film or the SciFi Channel miniseries. This story is massive. This film is only the first half of the first of six books.
I still wish they included the scene where Paul cries over him and everyone gathers and touches the tears on his face, in disbelief that he would give his water for a man he just met.
A movie with hundreds of amazing costumes, but ol' Harold of the Change is the smoothest of all of 'em.
Whacking off the black guy!
Priceless
Seeing this in IMAX was dope. They've confirmed part 3 is now in development... 🎉
Damn bro ..... So glad I found this newer channel of yours . I recently found your old music reaction channel but noticed its been over a year since you posted there . I was worried something happened to you . Great to see your doing just fine !
Other channel?
Wut???

You should watch the music video for "Weapon of Choice" by Fatboy Slim. Not even to react to it, just to see. "Walk without rhythm, it wont attract the worm!"
Starring the Emperor himself
I highly recommend you listen to the dune audiobooks. The original 6 only. They are wild and so good. Everything from star wars to star trek to tremors to beetleguise are inspired by Dune.
These movies need to be seen on the BIG SCREEN, my friend
I have a 50 inch I watch them on
Can't wait for you to watch Part 2!
Gotta get a Dune part 2 popcorn tub lol.
this movie was really good love the videos
Perfect timing with part 2 releasing today
Lol "This dude Duncan rose from the dead" 😏
Leo says something, Paul says it a few seconds later😮 LEO IS PAUL and I'm here for it 💯❤
Paul's visions are misleading at furst and are just potential futures and often have double meanings. So the guys speaking to him and showing him the way kind of did show him the way of the desert. Through having to kill him. But in an alternate future they could have been friends.
I have Dune Tooth. Every time I watch that scene i bite down
Glad you got around to this please do part 2 soon
Lady Jessica played by Rebecca Ferguson is featured pretty heavily in the later Mission Impossible movies. You should definitely check out that franchise soon.
Paul hesitated to kill him because he knows he was going to teach him the ways in a possible future. Now that he's dead someone else is going to have to teach him the ways. 👀. I wonder who that'll be.
The fact that our boy wears the bulls head hat actually ties into the book, because it makes reference to the bull statue, or rather the bulls head on the wall. I forget exactly why in the book, but it’s specifically shot in the movie for a couple seconds I think before the bene gesserit training and they also make another specific shot of it getting boxed up. It’s a reference to House Atreides and the father, but someone here will correct me, I’m sure.
I just find it funny that Leo’s wearing a hat with the Bull on it too.
12:44 well I mean; I remember my first shroom trip... that counts in a way.
I tell you right now, ON JESUS, I wouldn't stick my hand in that box.
Loved watching your reaction man. You understood and kept up extremely well. This and Part 2 are movies that you have to let yourself become lost in because every dialogue, every scene, every facial expression has a purpose and with the music it's such feeling experience to keep up. I hope you watch Part 2 soon because it's even better and more intense and emotional. Looking forward to watching with you.
Loved this reaction Leo 💜 cant wait for part two!
I think your reaction to the 1984 version of Dune would be highly entertaining!!!
One of the best sci fi I've seen since end game hands down. Seen this movie like 5 times, par t2 done watched it 4 times now just came out on streaming lol Saw in theater two times!
Mr video is in luck as part 2 came out today!
May his passage cleanse the world.
Call me impressed, Mr Video. i did not think you could follow much of this story, but you did great.
The Original Movie was Amazing a Masterpiece for it´s Time love it since i saw it this one looks pretty nice too
U should have done the ORIGINAL 1ST SMDH @ ur patreons🍷
D84 is meh
My GUY this is a good one, you gotta see part 2 and there is a part 3 in the works
You seem like they type that reads and if so i HIGHLY advise reading the series by frank Herbert 💯💯
Yes!!
Glasses got you fooled huh?
I had a theory when I first read the book that use special breathing practices to make their body alkaline or acidic to get the acquired gender of their babies. 11:34
new to the channel, I LOVE Dune, thanks for reacting! loved it. please do part 2!
Where the fear hs gone ,there will be nothing . Only I will remain.
30:22 they’re distilling their water. You might not know this about stillsuits but they can 💩 in their suit and it can distill the water and moisture in it. As drinkable water 🤢
They did an excellent job of showing how deadly the sardaukar are. The atreides were easily killing the harkonnen, showing clear superiority over the harkonnen soldiers. However the moment the sardaukar joined the fight, they wiped out the atreides with relative ease, demonstrating their superiority over the atreides.
when you said “Pauls first kill…. and it was a black guy” caught me so off guard during that emotional scene I couldn’t help but laugh lmao. But I’m glad you were able to understand pretty much the whole plot of the movie.
Dude, the way you notice things and interpret them is really impressive. You keep up, get the plot, the tone, the motives... It also means that the movie and the filmmaking are well done. Good on you nonetheless :)
I know you don’t really react to any documentaries but I would recommend Jodorowsky’s Dune considering how influential it was in today’s culture despite that version of Dune never being made for being too ambitious at the time
Jodorowsky's attempt would have been gloriously bizarre, like everything he does 😅
