Mate, ypur videos would be a lot better and easier to watch if you didn't constantly have this self hating attitude. I noticed you ascribe to the colonist bad thing. Which is fine, but I noticed you was missing points of the movie with ypur attitude about that. Putting it onto the good guys. The emperor owns the whole know universe. Every planet is his. Weather the people of the planet want it or not. Secondly the movie shows us to be aware of figures like jesus and the whole power corruption thing. But you seemed to miss it by going on about colonists over and over again. 😂 Are you aware of the good britian did for the world or do ypu just think we are bad and stole resources? Like the point of the whole series is to be aware of these things but the strides are not the bad colonist tyoe guys that's the harkonens
@EMPERORSPROTECTION-TERRA4LIFE Lol It's not self hating, its just being historically literate and linking the story being told in the voice-over to real world comparisons. Comparisons the author was obviously very familiar with. I think you're putting too much into a few facts spoken over mere seconds during the course of 155 minutes, which directly correspond to the story being told. you seem to have missed a lot of what I did say by focusing in too much on my off the cuff colonial comments. I went into part 2 being very suspicious. I didnt expect such wording to trigger anyone. I thought it was funny. I used britain because im british. If i was French, I would've used France.
54:20 'Why isn't the shield stopping them?' Shields vibrations attract sandworms and drive them frenetic. In Arrakis desert a shield turned on is a death sentence. Those Harkonnens shields are turned off.
funnily enough, when you say "im never going to financially recover from this" youre actually super right in more ways than one lol. the Harkonnens spent so much money transporting troops to arrakis (because the spacing guild decided they wanted to extort them) that they would have to spend all the money they make harvesting spice for 50-60 years combined to pay for it
Villeneuve also fails ever to explain that shield technology uses the same subparticle technology as lasgun technology. If you hit a shield with a laser you get an atomic explosion on both ends. This is why they don’t use lasers on the spice harvesters until after the security aircraft has been taken out. Need to ensure there are no shields active in the area.
The movie also makes Jessica much more ruthless and coldblooded than she was in the book-In the book she and Paul become unspokenly estranged, because she is disturbed by his weaponizing the Lisan-Al Gaib myth to the extent that he does-She sees the danger, Paul does too, but he does it anyway. In Paul’s mind the tragedy is that his mom is in her heart a Bene Gesserit, and the Bene Gesserit have become his enemy. Jessica was far from the mad cult leader she is in the movie-Book Jessica supports Paul enthusiastically in the beginning, but later only begrudgingly, because she saw the deadly implications of becoming a religious figure.
@@killerlock666 I agree, and I also prefer this version of Chani. Both characters are a lot more active and it injects conflict into their dynamic, whereas in the book the conflict comes moreso internally from Paul which is harder to do in a movie without internal monologue
this is my take: Chani being mad at Paul for drinking the Water of Life feels unfair and contradictory. Before heading to the south, Paul explicitly voiced his fears about the transformation he might undergo, worrying he’d become something destructive, like a false prophet. Yet, Chani insisted he go, perhaps not fully understanding the weight of what Paul would face. Paul’s actions-drinking the Water of Life and embracing his destiny-weren’t entirely his choice. His visions, which show past and future events, essentially trap him in an unavoidable fate. Anyone gaining such immense power and knowledge is bound to change their mindset and behavior-it’s the natural result of carrying the weight of universal truth and responsibility. For Chani to insist Paul take steps toward this transformation, only to turn around and blame him when the inevitable happens, feels hypocritical. If she truly loved and trusted Paul, she’d recognize that his changes weren’t a betrayal, but the cost of fulfilling the destiny she urged him toward.
She urged him, trusting him because he made promises. It's not her fault that he betrayed himself and turned. Hypocritical in what regard? She loved and trusted Paul but all his actions proved her right, why would she support her people's destruction when she's always been against the interference of outsiders. Contradictory how? She supported him to the extent he made promises to her about remaining true to her and himself, so how precisely is she being contradictory? What is she contradicting? Paul changed and she dipped, rightfully so. Paul's actions not being "his choice" has nothing to do with Chani, she may have supported him but she didn't push him to doing anything, that is as much on Paul as it is on Jessica's influence. "Anyone gaining such immense power and knowledge is bound to change their mindset and behavior-it’s the natural result of carrying the weight of universal truth and responsibility."--Right, and if that change in behaviour results in him turning into the very thing she has hated from the beginning, why would she contradict herself as she watches her people be led into a war? As she watches Paul take on the lie and push her people into war? I am not understanding how Chani is supposedly being contradictory when in fact, she is being consistent to her values. At first she thought Paul was everything he'd become by the end and when he proved himself to be different, she gave him companionship, when he drank the Water of Life and changed into the very thing she's always been against...how is she contradicting herself? "If she truly loved and trusted Paul, she’d recognize that his changes weren’t a betrayal, but the cost of fulfilling the destiny she urged him toward."--She truly loved and trusted Paul, that Paul died when he drank the water, a decision that ultimately left to him and for a character as strong as him, I don't buy into this idea that Chani's word was the deciding factor for him, that was on him as a rational, autonomous agent. The changes were absolutely a betrayal of himself, the self that Chani loved, what he'd become was not what she'd come to know. He knew more about the potential of fulfilling that destiny through his visions, she didn't, whatever conversations she had with him were based on the person he'd proven himself to be. "For Chani to insist Paul take steps toward this transformation"--again, Paul wasn't coerced or even all that persuaded by Chani, that was mostly Jessica and himself, his own fight for his father, his own motivations. I am not understanding how his decision is being framed as having been ultimately up to Chani, when it absolutely was not. Even with Jessica's influence, it was down to Paul. He had his own gains to think about when making that decision, I think it's much more on that than Chani. But ultimately, Paul convinced Chani to trust him, every step of the way, he made promises to her and she trusted in that so if she had any major influence on his taking the poison, it was based on the immense trust Paul earned. But none of this matters because in the books, Paul promised fidelity to Chani and made it clear that it would be a political arrangement between him and Irulan. I do understand the motivations of movie-Chani as well though, I think she's an incredibly strongly written character, with strong convictions and the ending punctuated what they had been trying to communicate about that iteration of Chani.
@allbutperfect Really??? Did you not watch when Paul woke up after drinking the Water of Life? He said, *"The visions are clear now. I see possible futures, all at once. Our enemies are all around us, and in so many futures they prevail. But I do see a way-there is a narrow way through."* He did it because it was the only way for them to survive... the Emperor and the Harkonnens were going to kill the Fremen.
Shai-Hulud is referred to by Fremen as "Old man of the desert" So when Paul says "I recognize your footsteps, old man." He wasn't necessarily referring to Gurney approaching.
About why exactly Paul is Kwisatz Haderach. Bene Gesserit's plan was that KH will be the son of Atreides and Harkonnen. They wanted Jessica to make a daughter - so she could marry Feyd-Rautha. But because Jessica is baron's daughter, Paul is already a male who is from both bloodlines.
The Bene Gesserit wanted Jessica to have a female baby to, as they put it, "seal the breach" between Atriedes and Harkonnen as they were afraid of losing either, or both lines, and so they could better control their breeding program, there is nothing in any of the books to suggest they were specifically looking at a mix of the two bloodlines to create the KH, they had one failure that we know of from the books and that was Count Fenring, all we know of his bloodline is that he was a distant cousin of House Corrino. The film may give that impression but that's more an indicator of how poor an adaptation the films are, though in Villeneuve's defence it clearly states in the credits they are based on the series of Novels. Jessica's conceit born from her love of Duke Leto made her think she could make Paul the KH, the fact that Paul is descended from both houses is incidental as even Jessica herself didn't know she was the daughter of the Baron, and because the Bene Gessirit themselves were not looking to make another attempt at the KH in that generation, if anything they were looking to breed out the mental defects of House Harkonnen, Paul wasn't even what they envisaged the KH would be and turned out way more powerful and impossible to control and as we find out in the later books the Bene Gessirit realized the breeding program was a failure that ultimately lead to the God Emperor.
The Baron isn't fat because he floats, he floats because he is so fat. the reverend mother was raped by him and for revenge she poisoned him, it didn't kill him but did make his bloat up so much that he literally couldn't walk so they put suspensor blocks into his back (the red lights mark where they are) so he could float to get around.
And the original books not the words written by the son but by the Father The barron was fat because she was just such an unpleasant gluttonous man who couldn't control his base impulses I don't really think the son needed to add the whole rape thing to the story the Barron was gross enough already
@@wackyvorlon I do kind of like the BH take on it, shows us that the Baron really is beyond evil as well as gluttonous and his gluttony didn't only extend to his food appetites but to other people (IYKYK) and he was punished for what he did to Helen.
“i recognize your footsteps old man” also is paul talking to the word, because in the books, and even in part two, shai hulud is called grandfather and old man many times.
Denis Villeneuve and his team made also Arrival, Prisoners, Sicario, Ennemy, Blade runner 2049, and in french Incendies and Polytechnique. I must say am a fan of him.
I remember watching Arrival in cinema back in the day and being surprised that most normies hated it. I guess most people went into it expecting an alien blockbuster and not appreciating the beauty of it. I didn't realise he was the same director when I watched this!
@@RyanCarringtonArrival is one of my top 5 science fiction films. I always thought sci-fi was a means to convey a human story, be it political or personal, without being encumbered by the trappings of current society. I’ll never forget when my dad discovered Isaac Asminov (my dad was in his 60s) and was delighted by the plot. Arrival was that for me. A very beautiful insight about what it means to experience life.
So... i read the books in the 90s. I had to touch up on it over the last 2yrs. So... here it is: they follow a different calendar. Instead of before or after christ they follow after the space guild which is approximately 10k yrs into the future. Before AI was a word they had smart computers and robots. They colonized 10 thousand planets until they found spice. Which allows them many health benefits such as fast evolution, safe passage through the starts and etc... however you have a complex system where you have the major houses and the smaller houses throughout 10k planets. The space guild is the dominant force... they expedited they human evolution by using spice 24/7 as gas form. That's the only way to travel and manage 10 0000 colonized planets. At some point the great houses banned the use of smart machines and robots. Nowadays it's called AI. Back then they did not have a name for AI which makes the lore even more amazing. The dude that rolls his eyes white is a human fast evolved computer by use of spice and training since childhood. The sisterhood is another type of fast evolution where they can use the voice and control their birth which is only female allowed...the prophecy is also based on that spice driven evolutionary paragon
It’s interesting, the scene with the palms-In the book the Fremen hated the display of water wealth displayed by the ruling class-To water those trees while the people thirsted. In the movie they flip it, and the palm trees become a symbol of hope for the Fremen.
"How do you get off" Its kinda good/bad.. they basically ride them till the worm is too exhausted to fuck off and be a probllem. Guiding them to circle around so they are wind-ward to the 'storms' they also provide shelter if need be before the worm recovers and fucks off back into the sand.
The language of The Fremen is called Chakobsa. It is a completely fictional language, although Frank Herbert has drawn so many influences from the languages and customs from across the Middle East, it could easily be an amalgam from across the region. Great reactions to both. Thank you
There are a couple of professionally recorded Audiobooks of this novel , I would recommend both . Each offers something slightly different , about 21 hours of listening .
Seems like he was pretty much forced to though. You can see how reluctant he is when he says "Lead them to paradise" at the end. Obviously this might change later on but as of this stage in the films people are too hard on him, he saw every possible option and knew this shitty way had to be the one. I'm sure he'd rather just kick it with Chani on Arakkis for the rest of his days but knows how crucial he is to this holy war and what he needs to do.
@@jacobyoung729 Well, he said he believes in revenge. And he got it. So maybe all the possible futures he saw did not get him the revenge and that's why he chose this path. He did not say "in all the possible future, only one will bring the Green paradise to the Fremen". He maybe was not ready to do the ultimate sacrifice of not getting revenge for his Dad, Duncan and all the others.
@@ladykat637 I still don’t feel like that makes him a villain, just not a hero, most would choose revenge over utter benevolence in those circumstances
Chani is Paul’s concubine, like Jessica was to Leto. That’s his love. His marriage to the Princess is a political one. Chani, having every right to be upset, doesn’t see the bigger picture…for now.
Not so sure it is all about the love they shared. Could be as well about the fact he swore to her he did not want power. She could feel used. And for what ? Not even the purpose he sold to the other Fremen but for his own revenge. They are going to die by millions, blindly following a leader's agenda whereas they dreamed about a green paradise.
On arrakis in the desert and warm territory you can't activate shields because they drive worms into a killing frenzy. They're like a thumper at supersonic speeds
Also if you really like Dune Part one and two, don't miss out on HBOs spin off TV series "Dune Prophecy" currently airing. Set roughly a thousand years before Paul Atreides time and about how the Bene Gesserit get so powerful. I'm curious how many spin of seasons we will get because during this period in the Dune world, after the war with the Thinking machines (AI), the Bene Gesserit were not the only "mind" schools that were formed. There's others like the Mentats and Guild navigators as well. So much Dune world to explore 😊 32:34 Director and Sound decided to make the voice sound like generations of bene Gesserit ancestors. When you tap into the "powers" it's tapping into your heritage. Remember Paul is the result of generations of breeding. Bene Gesserit women are placed into the royal houses and sometimes as concubines and produce children (mostly girls) for the bene Gesserit breeding program. A lot of the time not knowing who their parents are. In the HBO series in episode one we are introduced to the voice. But it's a new skill and therefore isn't as layered with many voices yet.
My two cents worth. 1 Thumbs up. 2. No-one talks about the Sardaukar, but they are on a prison planet and in that environment because of the harsh conditions become the best military in the Empire. One interpretation of the upside down blood letting in the first movie is that of new prisoners sent to the planet they are the ones that didn't make the initial combat test. 3. The Fremen live in an environment that is even harsher than Salusa Secundus and through that are eve more potent than the Sardaukar. 4. the atomics are used to destroy the shield wall so the worms can get access to the city. 5. The Sardaukar have never forght an adveresary like the Fremen and hence are totally suprised and overwelmed. 6. Many reasons from the book for not using Nukes, lasers etc. that are not well explained in the movie. The whole story and why they need to use blades is very tight.
"I wasn't expecting that we'd get the emperor to yield, I thought that would be the complete end goal." Me who has been reading the books: "Oh," *laughs maniacally* "Oh sweet one, no. No, that was the introduction"
There are only two ways to guide a ship faster than light. Advanced computers or Guild Navigator using spice to see the future and using that to find a safe path through hyperspace. For reason s all computers are illegal and carry a death sentence to even posses one. So interstellar trade requires large amounts of spice to operate. And the Imperium is so old that virtually every world specializes it's economy. So no Spice equals mass starvation and civil war.
@Carrington -- You will never regret reading the original "Dune". The sequels don't come close and are really only useful as money magnets aimed at the compulsive finishers. Go on. Surrender the minutes and read it. No spoilers. It ends where the second movie does.
The old movie is good as it has extra stuff in it that helps fill in some world building gaps. You might want to watch it after you react to Dune Part Two as the 1980s film crammed it into one film. If you are going to watch Lynch's 1980s version you may want to watch the enhanced redux TH-cam version. It has an added narrated introduction that helps to understand the Dune world better and a couple of added cut scenes that rounds out the story a bit better. Those cut scenes might be of lesser quality as a result but worth it.
I was using one throught. I always have one in front of me. Sometimes, people think I'm using my phone. For a household, we have far too many notepads 😂
the spice is in everything all the time water sand air so if you live on arrakis you are on spice all day everyday paul was supposed to be a girl to be married to feyd routha and their son would have been the hopeful but since she had paul the one was born earlier
Even though movies did a great job at showing pauls visions but he sees all possible futures and essentially chooses the best possible future. His son leto II is " THE ONE" 😅 love that character! Both are not bad to say but if you can see all the possible futures where humanity goes extinct and you have the responsibility to change that lol im sure that would change anyone a little bit lol! Paul couldnt go through it but leto II does. Obvsly there is alot more to this as political intrigue is one of the best in dune universe. Such a deep and interesting lore
Dave Bautista is not just a great actor for a wrestler. He is an incredible actor, period. I actually think this is one of his weaker roles, but the problem has more to do with the way he’s written than his performance.
1:26:02 "Why don't these people take spice?" .. said as the Baron is smoking spice and bathing in a tub of spice I know the movie doesn't make it super obvious and this is far from the first reactor to say that - I just think it's funny timing
@@RyanCarrington yeah it takes a long time of low exposure to get the blue eyes, or less time of higher exposure. Living with the Fremen out in the desert, spice is everywhere, in the air, in their food, in their clothing and tools, and in part of their rituals, so Pauls eyes go blue more quickly. Jessica's go immediately after the Spice Agony when she becomes a Reverend Mother (its a massive dose). Also in the books its explained that spice becomes addictive, and if you stop taking it, you can die. So the elite try to be slow and deliberate with spice usage, keeps the addiction and severe withdrawal at bay for longer.
Not sure if this was added by Frank Herbert or his son but apparently the Baron was a bit of a young nephew enjoyer, a PDF file, if you catch my drift :/ might have done some pretty nasty things to his nephews
There are some great videos on You Tube that explain things about the story and the whole Dune universe that the movie only alludes to. Stuff like the Bene Gesserit, Mentats, the Fremen, the various houses involved, the Spacing Guild, the life cycle of the sandworms, and so much more. Quinn's Ideas is my favorite. That guy knows a ton about all the Dune books. Nerd Cookies and The Lorebrarians also have great Dune content. I very highly recommend checking some of them out. Dune is a pretty complex story and there's a lot to know and it just makes the story given to us in these two movies even better. 🖖🏽
"What if he isn't the one, ever thought o that?" He isn't. That's the point. Literally all of it is manufactured by the bene gesserit for their gain and manipulation. Then subsequently manufactured and manipulated by Paul (reluctantly) and his mother (not reluctantly) for their gain.
Loved your reaction as always. You should check out society of the snow. It's a great movie and I would love to hear what you have to say about that one. If you do watch it I recommend the original language with subtitles, the acting was amazing
Now that you have enjoyed the movies it's time for the sleeper to awaken. Every question you asked is answered in the book "Dune". The Bene Gesserit combining the blood lines to produce a man that can see where a woman can not look. The plans of the mutant humans of the Spacing Guild. The Mentat, human computers that make the perfect assassins. The religion of the Fremon. The reason Jessica gave birth to a son instead of the daughter she was ordered to. The time taken to read the book will not be wasted. Bye the way. Paul is not who you think he is.
What a cute sexy dude...New favorite reaction channel😅 I saw these movies waaaay to many times in theaters and at home. So good. Love how sharp this dude is catching everything
Can the Bene Gesserit determine their children's sex? Yes. It is a matter of the application of certain hormones at certain times or lack thereof. A Bene Gesserit can have conscious control over bodily function, even the autonomic ones.
A hillbilly man taught me when I was 9. He also taught me how to whistle with my fingers as well. He later went into witness protection. For being was too aggressive at an estate party in an area of more aggressive people. I can't really say what I saw as a 9 year old because the graphic nature would breach YT ToS
Say it with us-“Ben-eh Jez-er-it.” I don’t get how in the first movie, the Reverend Mother takes the time to test Paul, and counsels the Lady Jessica on how to take advantage of their myths, to survive amongst the Fremen-Then in Dune Part 2, she offhandedly says, yeah, “we told the Emperor to kill them.”
@ -She was hardly certain Paul and Jessica would live, The Reverend Mother made that very clear in Dune part 1-And in Dune part 2, her words seem to go against what she said in Part 1, she seemed to mean that all Atreides needed to be killed. Of course in the book this contradiction doesn’t come up-Because in it the Bene Gesserit didn’t plot the Atreides’ murder.
how are they gonna reconcile estranged paul and chani to give birth to the real god emperor? Cuz in the books chani was down for the Cause even when paul married princess irulan
these movies are all of book 1. the next movie is book 2 Dune: Messiah. Dune is just to long and detailed to do as one movie so you have look at 1 and 2 as one HUGE movie. "Is Paul going to move to the dark side..." Oh man Messiah is going to blow your mind...
Dune is an amazing must experience sci-fi story from an era when brutal hopelessness was in vogue. As such it leans heavily into ideas of predestination and free-will being an illusion... which is pretty depressing. I don't love this story, but you need to experience it to be culturally literate. The original theatrical film does some things better than this one. There is also a made for TV mini-series that does some things better than the other two.
It is possible to ramp up your metabolism. Takes a specifically focused exercise regimen. I'm +50 and mostly maintain my weight through pushing up my metabolism because I want to eat what I want to eat.
My problem is that I had a crazy metabolism up until my mid 20s by doing absolutely nothing and eating rubbish. I had to take weight gainers back in the day and was still stick thin. Now, because I grew up with no health discipline, I can't get used to not eating exactly what I want and getting away with it 😩😂
I take serious issue with the end of Dune part 2-It totally misunderstood the book. Firstly, in the book the Great Houses accepted Paul’s ascension to the Golden Lion Throne, and his betrothal to Princess Irulan, his rule was legit. The movie has him spare the Emperor and force Irulan to wed him, only for the houses to reject it. This makes no sense. It makes Paul sparing the Emperor nonsensical. And it means his future foresight is lacking. Which it isn’t! He is the Kwisatz Haderach, he knew what they’d do. Secondly, he threatened to blow up the Spice fields. No way the Great Houses would risk their Spice supply because they didn’t like Paul. Moreover, this highlights a larger problem in the movie. It minimizes the role of the Spacing Guild. The Guild has a monopoly on all space travel, not just interstellar. A House cannot even orbit satellites over their own planet without the Guild’s consent. Hence why Arrakis had no satellites-Fremen smugglers bribed the Guild to disallow satellites-So their numbers could be hidden. The Guild has more power than the Great Houses, the Emperor and the Bene Gesserit-It would never allow the Great Houses to oppose Paul’s rule-The Guild is only interested in Spice production and access. The book got this, the movie did not. By the way, the book called Paul’s war The Jihad-PC wimps chickened out for the film.
I personally love the end of this movie. Every adaptation will take some freedoms with the source material, and the changes here are relatively minor from the book. They also set up events much better for Dune Messiah. It can easily be assumed that the Great Houses assumed the spice fields would be safe as long as they didn’t attack directly, and that Paul had actually foreseen all of this. I do agree more about the Spacing Guild tho, but since the decision was made not to really introduce them for real until the next movie, I think this ending works beautifully
40:00 minutes in, and I'm not sure if I'm enjoying the reaction, its seems the dialogues are constantly cut, especially at the most important times. No attention whatsoever in this reaction is given to the dialogues and its meaning, the characters and their interactions. Bit of a shame to be honest.
I just can't show all the dialogue, and if I want to show any monologues, I have to speak at some point in order for me to show the scene at all because of copyright. In the full-length version, I'm not continually talking. I'm listening for the most part. There's a lot to take in with regards to dialogue that I was still catching across multiple viewings and while editing. There is definitely a lot of intentional layering for repeat viewings. And a movie as detailed as this will always cause problems for reactions because you have to react and you're always in danger of doing at the wrong point. But I largely grasped and understood most of it. At least, that's what I've been told. I've been largely praised with regards to what I've picked up on, so this is a humbling comment 🙏
@@RyanCarrington I didn't expect an answer to be honest, so thank you. Deniz Villeneuve once said he would do a movie without dialogues if he could get away with it, because he hates dialogue in movies - not sure if that is a true quote. The original books contain a lot of dialogue, especially inner dialogue (monologue), which he thankfully managed to avoid, something David Lynch wasn't able to in his 80s version. So the bits of dialogue left now in this version are the absolute bare minimum and most important bits to understand the characters and their motivations. There is no superfluous dialogue whatsoever. Every single line is so full of meaning for understanding what is going on, you'll only ever fully understand if you've read the books. I don't want to bore you with the details, but a line of dialogue in the movie can easily convey/summarize whole chapters of the book. So your editing and cutting of some of the most important bits makes me sad. Sorry mate, maybe I will watch the rest of your reaction once I get over it...
You sound like you might be a man who doesn’t have faith and perhaps that keeps you from wanting to get behind Paul and see a bigger picture face has a big part in this movie I read thewhole book and you understand better if you listen closely, less talking !everything has a place in the movie,including faith
When the central themes are colonisation and the dangers of messianic figures, all tied into a fuedelist social, economic and political system, it's good to inject some humour. If you want something slightly heavier, maybe read some Noam Chomsky and give silly reactions a miss.

Mate, ypur videos would be a lot better and easier to watch if you didn't constantly have this self hating attitude. I noticed you ascribe to the colonist bad thing. Which is fine, but I noticed you was missing points of the movie with ypur attitude about that. Putting it onto the good guys. The emperor owns the whole know universe. Every planet is his. Weather the people of the planet want it or not.
Secondly the movie shows us to be aware of figures like jesus and the whole power corruption thing.
But you seemed to miss it by going on about colonists over and over again. 😂
Are you aware of the good britian did for the world or do ypu just think we are bad and stole resources?
Like the point of the whole series is to be aware of these things but the strides are not the bad colonist tyoe guys that's the harkonens
@EMPERORSPROTECTION-TERRA4LIFE Lol It's not self hating, its just being historically literate and linking the story being told in the voice-over to real world comparisons. Comparisons the author was obviously very familiar with. I think you're putting too much into a few facts spoken over mere seconds during the course of 155 minutes, which directly correspond to the story being told. you seem to have missed a lot of what I did say by focusing in too much on my off the cuff colonial comments. I went into part 2 being very suspicious.
I didnt expect such wording to trigger anyone. I thought it was funny. I used britain because im british. If i was French, I would've used France.
54:20 'Why isn't the shield stopping them?'
Shields vibrations attract sandworms and drive them frenetic. In Arrakis desert a shield turned on is a death sentence. Those Harkonnens shields are turned off.
Also because they all are using laser weapons. One stray shot and they're all going boom.
funnily enough, when you say "im never going to financially recover from this" youre actually super right in more ways than one lol. the Harkonnens spent so much money transporting troops to arrakis (because the spacing guild decided they wanted to extort them) that they would have to spend all the money they make harvesting spice for 50-60 years combined to pay for it
Oh wow!
Villeneuve also fails ever to explain that shield technology uses the same subparticle technology as lasgun technology. If you hit a shield with a laser you get an atomic explosion on both ends. This is why they don’t use lasers on the spice harvesters until after the security aircraft has been taken out. Need to ensure there are no shields active in the area.

In Paul’s mind the tragedy is that his mom is in her heart a Bene Gesserit, and the Bene Gesserit have become his enemy. Jessica was far from the mad cult leader she is in the movie-Book Jessica supports Paul enthusiastically in the beginning, but later only begrudgingly, because she saw the deadly implications of becoming a religious figure.
Not gonna lie but I prefer this version of her
@@killerlock666 I agree, and I also prefer this version of Chani. Both characters are a lot more active and it injects conflict into their dynamic, whereas in the book the conflict comes moreso internally from Paul which is harder to do in a movie without internal monologue
this is my take:
Chani being mad at Paul for drinking the Water of Life feels unfair and contradictory. Before heading to the south, Paul explicitly voiced his fears about the transformation he might undergo, worrying he’d become something destructive, like a false prophet. Yet, Chani insisted he go, perhaps not fully understanding the weight of what Paul would face.
Paul’s actions-drinking the Water of Life and embracing his destiny-weren’t entirely his choice. His visions, which show past and future events, essentially trap him in an unavoidable fate. Anyone gaining such immense power and knowledge is bound to change their mindset and behavior-it’s the natural result of carrying the weight of universal truth and responsibility.
For Chani to insist Paul take steps toward this transformation, only to turn around and blame him when the inevitable happens, feels hypocritical. If she truly loved and trusted Paul, she’d recognize that his changes weren’t a betrayal, but the cost of fulfilling the destiny she urged him toward.
She urged him, trusting him because he made promises. It's not her fault that he betrayed himself and turned. Hypocritical in what regard? She loved and trusted Paul but all his actions proved her right, why would she support her people's destruction when she's always been against the interference of outsiders. Contradictory how? She supported him to the extent he made promises to her about remaining true to her and himself, so how precisely is she being contradictory? What is she contradicting? Paul changed and she dipped, rightfully so. Paul's actions not being "his choice" has nothing to do with Chani, she may have supported him but she didn't push him to doing anything, that is as much on Paul as it is on Jessica's influence. "Anyone gaining such immense power and knowledge is bound to change their mindset and behavior-it’s the natural result of carrying the weight of universal truth and responsibility."--Right, and if that change in behaviour results in him turning into the very thing she has hated from the beginning, why would she contradict herself as she watches her people be led into a war? As she watches Paul take on the lie and push her people into war? I am not understanding how Chani is supposedly being contradictory when in fact, she is being consistent to her values. At first she thought Paul was everything he'd become by the end and when he proved himself to be different, she gave him companionship, when he drank the Water of Life and changed into the very thing she's always been against...how is she contradicting herself? "If she truly loved and trusted Paul, she’d recognize that his changes weren’t a betrayal, but the cost of fulfilling the destiny she urged him toward."--She truly loved and trusted Paul, that Paul died when he drank the water, a decision that ultimately left to him and for a character as strong as him, I don't buy into this idea that Chani's word was the deciding factor for him, that was on him as a rational, autonomous agent. The changes were absolutely a betrayal of himself, the self that Chani loved, what he'd become was not what she'd come to know. He knew more about the potential of fulfilling that destiny through his visions, she didn't, whatever conversations she had with him were based on the person he'd proven himself to be. "For Chani to insist Paul take steps toward this transformation"--again, Paul wasn't coerced or even all that persuaded by Chani, that was mostly Jessica and himself, his own fight for his father, his own motivations. I am not understanding how his decision is being framed as having been ultimately up to Chani, when it absolutely was not. Even with Jessica's influence, it was down to Paul. He had his own gains to think about when making that decision, I think it's much more on that than Chani. But ultimately, Paul convinced Chani to trust him, every step of the way, he made promises to her and she trusted in that so if she had any major influence on his taking the poison, it was based on the immense trust Paul earned. But none of this matters because in the books, Paul promised fidelity to Chani and made it clear that it would be a political arrangement between him and Irulan. I do understand the motivations of movie-Chani as well though, I think she's an incredibly strongly written character, with strong convictions and the ending punctuated what they had been trying to communicate about that iteration of Chani.
@allbutperfect Really??? Did you not watch when Paul woke up after drinking the Water of Life? He said, *"The visions are clear now. I see possible futures, all at once. Our enemies are all around us, and in so many futures they prevail. But I do see a way-there is a narrow way through."* He did it because it was the only way for them to survive... the Emperor and the Harkonnens were going to kill the Fremen.
Shai-Hulud is referred to by Fremen as "Old man of the desert"
So when Paul says "I recognize your footsteps, old man." He wasn't necessarily referring to Gurney approaching.
About why exactly Paul is Kwisatz Haderach.
Bene Gesserit's plan was that KH will be the son of Atreides and Harkonnen. They wanted Jessica to make a daughter - so she could marry Feyd-Rautha.
But because Jessica is baron's daughter, Paul is already a male who is from both bloodlines.
The Bene Gesserit wanted Jessica to have a female baby to, as they put it, "seal the breach" between Atriedes and Harkonnen as they were afraid of losing either, or both lines, and so they could better control their breeding program, there is nothing in any of the books to suggest they were specifically looking at a mix of the two bloodlines to create the KH, they had one failure that we know of from the books and that was Count Fenring, all we know of his bloodline is that he was a distant cousin of House Corrino. The film may give that impression but that's more an indicator of how poor an adaptation the films are, though in Villeneuve's defence it clearly states in the credits they are based on the series of Novels.
Jessica's conceit born from her love of Duke Leto made her think she could make Paul the KH, the fact that Paul is descended from both houses is incidental as even Jessica herself didn't know she was the daughter of the Baron, and because the Bene Gessirit themselves were not looking to make another attempt at the KH in that generation, if anything they were looking to breed out the mental defects of House Harkonnen, Paul wasn't even what they envisaged the KH would be and turned out way more powerful and impossible to control and as we find out in the later books the Bene Gessirit realized the breeding program was a failure that ultimately lead to the God Emperor.
Stilgar wasn’t lying when he said he was ready to lay down his life for Paul😂 “nah he’s just too humble…as written”
The Baron isn't fat because he floats, he floats because he is so fat. the reverend mother was raped by him and for revenge she poisoned him, it didn't kill him but did make his bloat up so much that he literally couldn't walk so they put suspensor blocks into his back (the red lights mark where they are) so he could float to get around.
Note: the rape thing is an invention of Brian Herbert.
In the original book he is fat because of gluttony, a reflection of his greed for all things.
And the original books not the words written by the son but by the Father The barron was fat because she was just such an unpleasant gluttonous man who couldn't control his base impulses I don't really think the son needed to add the whole rape thing to the story the Barron was gross enough already
@@Aeolusdallas collected diseases for fun
@@wackyvorlon I do kind of like the BH take on it, shows us that the Baron really is beyond evil as well as gluttonous and his gluttony didn't only extend to his food appetites but to other people (IYKYK) and he was punished for what he did to Helen.
@@IndySidhu88 I mean we can see he is absolutely evil even without that added rape. I agree that it was absolutely unnecessary.
Was waiting for these. My all time favorite book. 10/10 filmmaking, 9/10 adaptation
IMHO.
“i recognize your footsteps old man” also is paul talking to the word, because in the books, and even in part two, shai hulud is called grandfather and old man many times.
Denis Villeneuve and his team made also Arrival, Prisoners, Sicario, Ennemy, Blade runner 2049, and in french Incendies and Polytechnique.
I must say am a fan of him.
I remember watching Arrival in cinema back in the day and being surprised that most normies hated it. I guess most people went into it expecting an alien blockbuster and not appreciating the beauty of it.
I didn't realise he was the same director when I watched this!
@@RyanCarrington The same thing happened with Prisoners and Sicario. They are actions movie but not hollywoodian. They worth watching.
@@RyanCarringtonArrival is one of my top 5 science fiction films. I always thought sci-fi was a means to convey a human story, be it political or personal, without being encumbered by the trappings of current society. I’ll never forget when my dad discovered Isaac Asminov (my dad was in his 60s) and was delighted by the plot. Arrival was that for me. A very beautiful insight about what it means to experience life.
23:48 this is some CRAZY foreshadowing right here. these movies are genius
Oh wow, I really like that description of the shield effect, 'visual reverb'
🫡
So... i read the books in the 90s. I had to touch up on it over the last 2yrs. So... here it is: they follow a different calendar. Instead of before or after christ they follow after the space guild which is approximately 10k yrs into the future. Before AI was a word they had smart computers and robots. They colonized 10 thousand planets until they found spice. Which allows them many health benefits such as fast evolution, safe passage through the starts and etc... however you have a complex system where you have the major houses and the smaller houses throughout 10k planets. The space guild is the dominant force... they expedited they human evolution by using spice 24/7 as gas form. That's the only way to travel and manage 10 0000 colonized planets. At some point the great houses banned the use of smart machines and robots. Nowadays it's called AI. Back then they did not have a name for AI which makes the lore even more amazing. The dude that rolls his eyes white is a human fast evolved computer by use of spice and training since childhood. The sisterhood is another type of fast evolution where they can use the voice and control their birth which is only female allowed...the prophecy is also based on that spice driven evolutionary paragon
The spiciest meat-a-ball movie(s) served from the Hollywood kitchen this decade.
Just amazing.
It’s interesting, the scene with the palms-In the book the Fremen hated the display of water wealth displayed by the ruling class-To water those trees while the people thirsted. In the movie they flip it, and the palm trees become a symbol of hope for the Fremen.
That's interesting!
That is indeed a reversal. But I thought it was a clever way to hint at the Fremen dream that once Arrakis would have water.
This was great, thanks! The normal sized cup cracked me up.
"How do you get off" Its kinda good/bad.. they basically ride them till the worm is too exhausted to fuck off and be a probllem. Guiding them to circle around so they are wind-ward to the 'storms' they also provide shelter if need be before the worm recovers and fucks off back into the sand.
The language of The Fremen is called Chakobsa. It is a completely fictional language, although Frank Herbert has drawn so many influences from the languages and customs from across the Middle East, it could easily be an amalgam from across the region. Great reactions to both. Thank you
Oh wow, editing recordings of 7 hours total must be quite a task. Well done.
Probably about 50/60 hours 💀
There are a couple of professionally recorded Audiobooks of this novel , I would recommend both . Each offers something slightly different , about 21 hours of listening .
My new favorite movie series.
It helps when you watch it on a 120” projector screen with 7.2.2 sound.

Movie wise and herbal
@@justwatching6186 are mushrooms in the herbal category?
At the end paul basically had turned to the dark side by starting his holy war
Yeah, that's the vibe I was afraid I was getting
Seems like he was pretty much forced to though. You can see how reluctant he is when he says "Lead them to paradise" at the end. Obviously this might change later on but as of this stage in the films people are too hard on him, he saw every possible option and knew this shitty way had to be the one. I'm sure he'd rather just kick it with Chani on Arakkis for the rest of his days but knows how crucial he is to this holy war and what he needs to do.
@@jacobyoung729 Well, he said he believes in revenge. And he got it. So maybe all the possible futures he saw did not get him the revenge and that's why he chose this path. He did not say "in all the possible future, only one will bring the Green paradise to the Fremen". He maybe was not ready to do the ultimate sacrifice of not getting revenge for his Dad, Duncan and all the others.
@@ladykat637 I still don’t feel like that makes him a villain, just not a hero, most would choose revenge over utter benevolence in those circumstances
@@ladykat637 But I see your point
Man ! there are 6 original books of Dune saga, the movies are just the first book.
Chani is Paul’s concubine, like Jessica was to Leto. That’s his love. His marriage to the Princess is a political one. Chani, having every right to be upset, doesn’t see the bigger picture…for now.
Not so sure it is all about the love they shared. Could be as well about the fact he swore to her he did not want power. She could feel used. And for what ? Not even the purpose he sold to the other Fremen but for his own revenge. They are going to die by millions, blindly following a leader's agenda whereas they dreamed about a green paradise.
Plus there was no real discussion or explanation about it prior to. She could just see this as him leaving her for power.
On arrakis in the desert and warm territory you can't activate shields because they drive worms into a killing frenzy. They're like a thumper at supersonic speeds
We are definitely just getting started.
30:23 idaho uses his suspensor to glide to the guy, it's quick but it's the same tech used by the harkonnens at the beginning of part 2
Wow ive rewatched this too many times to count and never caught that. So many interesting details.
I'm so glad you got to watch Paully Wonka and the Spice Factory!
Carrington- I can feel myself getting really nerdy about this movie..

Shield + Energy Weapon (like lasers) = Big💥on both sides (shooter & target)
OMG, you got me with the "Someone lick it up!" 🤣🤢
Also if you really like Dune Part one and two, don't miss out on HBOs spin off TV series "Dune Prophecy" currently airing. Set roughly a thousand years before Paul Atreides time and about how the Bene Gesserit get so powerful. I'm curious how many spin of seasons we will get because during this period in the Dune world, after the war with the Thinking machines (AI), the Bene Gesserit were not the only "mind" schools that were formed. There's others like the Mentats and Guild navigators as well. So much Dune world to explore 😊
32:34 Director and Sound decided to make the voice sound like generations of bene Gesserit ancestors. When you tap into the "powers" it's tapping into your heritage. Remember Paul is the result of generations of breeding. Bene Gesserit women are placed into the royal houses and sometimes as concubines and produce children (mostly girls) for the bene Gesserit breeding program. A lot of the time not knowing who their parents are. In the HBO series in episode one we are introduced to the voice. But it's a new skill and therefore isn't as layered with many voices yet.
Currently watching that with my Mrs on our down time away from reactions.
It's interesting so far
It’s 10,000 years before!
1:56:57 - Get him a body bag!
Nice reference
My two cents worth. 1 Thumbs up. 2. No-one talks about the Sardaukar, but they are on a prison planet and in that environment because of the harsh conditions become the best military in the Empire. One interpretation of the upside down blood letting in the first movie is that of new prisoners sent to the planet they are the ones that didn't make the initial combat test. 3. The Fremen live in an environment that is even harsher than Salusa Secundus and through that are eve more potent than the Sardaukar. 4. the atomics are used to destroy the shield wall so the worms can get access to the city. 5. The Sardaukar have never forght an adveresary like the Fremen and hence are totally suprised and overwelmed. 6. Many reasons from the book for not using Nukes, lasers etc. that are not well explained in the movie. The whole story and why they need to use blades is very tight.
"I wasn't expecting that we'd get the emperor to yield, I thought that would be the complete end goal."
Me who has been reading the books: "Oh," *laughs maniacally* "Oh sweet one, no. No, that was the introduction"
Fun fact, the word jihad is actually used in the books.
3:02 dude heard hallucinate and perked up. 🤘👍🏻🤟😂👌
👀😂
I grew up with the original movie and is pretty awesome for it's time.
I'll give it a watch at some point!
There are only two ways to guide a ship faster than light. Advanced computers or Guild Navigator using spice to see the future and using that to find a safe path through hyperspace. For reason s all computers are illegal and carry a death sentence to even posses one. So interstellar trade requires large amounts of spice to operate. And the Imperium is so old that virtually every world specializes it's economy. So no Spice equals mass starvation and civil war.
The language the Fremen are speaking is called Chakobsa.
@Carrington -- You will never regret reading the original "Dune". The sequels don't come close and are really only useful as money magnets aimed at the compulsive finishers. Go on. Surrender the minutes and read it. No spoilers. It ends where the second movie does.
The old movie is good as it has extra stuff in it that helps fill in some world building gaps. You might want to watch it after you react to Dune Part Two as the 1980s film crammed it into one film. If you are going to watch Lynch's 1980s version you may want to watch the enhanced redux TH-cam version. It has an added narrated introduction that helps to understand the Dune world better and a couple of added cut scenes that rounds out the story a bit better. Those cut scenes might be of lesser quality as a result but worth it.
Here’s a little tip if memory isn’t your strength-Grab a notepad, pick up a pencil and write down stuff. 📝 ✏️
I was using one throught. I always have one in front of me. Sometimes, people think I'm using my phone. For a household, we have far too many notepads 😂
@ Oh well done. I like when reactors approach reactions with some commitment
Farming me for more views and I’m all here for it
the spice is in everything all the time water sand air so if you live on arrakis you are on spice all day everyday paul was supposed to be a girl to be married to feyd routha and their son would have been the hopeful but since she had paul the one was born earlier
Dune written by Frank Herbert and was released in 1965
Damn you! Now I have to watch both movies again!
You're welcome 😂
The Baron is played by Stellan Skarsgård
The orange catholic bible in the universe of Dune, that's the book you saw.... 20 000 years in the futures from us ! in the books of Dune saga
Didn't expect him to sound like he grew up around road man lol
Never heard this before in my life 😂
I guess that's the Croydon in me coming out 💀
Even though movies did a great job at showing pauls visions but he sees all possible futures and essentially chooses the best possible future. His son leto II is " THE ONE" 😅 love that character! Both are not bad to say but if you can see all the possible futures where humanity goes extinct and you have the responsibility to change that lol im sure that would change anyone a little bit lol! Paul couldnt go through it but leto II does. Obvsly there is alot more to this as political intrigue is one of the best in dune universe. Such a deep and interesting lore
1:41:50 Yeah that dude and what he did was an "inspiration" or whatever you call it for the book and Paul
Dave Bautista is not just a great actor for a wrestler. He is an incredible actor, period. I actually think this is one of his weaker roles, but the problem has more to do with the way he’s written than his performance.
1:26:02 "Why don't these people take spice?" .. said as the Baron is smoking spice and bathing in a tub of spice
I know the movie doesn't make it super obvious and this is far from the first reactor to say that - I just think it's funny timing
😂 It's because at the time, I was looking for the blue eyes to identify spice users 😅
@@RyanCarrington yeah it takes a long time of low exposure to get the blue eyes, or less time of higher exposure. Living with the Fremen out in the desert, spice is everywhere, in the air, in their food, in their clothing and tools, and in part of their rituals, so Pauls eyes go blue more quickly. Jessica's go immediately after the Spice Agony when she becomes a Reverend Mother (its a massive dose). Also in the books its explained that spice becomes addictive, and if you stop taking it, you can die. So the elite try to be slow and deliberate with spice usage, keeps the addiction and severe withdrawal at bay for longer.
Not sure if this was added by Frank Herbert or his son but apparently the Baron was a bit of a young nephew enjoyer, a PDF file, if you catch my drift :/ might have done some pretty nasty things to his nephews
Yes it's the same director with the latest Bladerunner
It's crazy when a directors style is so obvious you can immediately identify it.
I feel like that's an achievement.
Blade Runner 2049 has the same director, good catch
There are some great videos on You Tube that explain things about the story and the whole Dune universe that the movie only alludes to. Stuff like the Bene Gesserit, Mentats, the Fremen, the various houses involved, the Spacing Guild, the life cycle of the sandworms, and so much more. Quinn's Ideas is my favorite. That guy knows a ton about all the Dune books. Nerd Cookies and The Lorebrarians also have great Dune content. I very highly recommend checking some of them out. Dune is a pretty complex story and there's a lot to know and it just makes the story given to us in these two movies even better. 🖖🏽
"What if he isn't the one, ever thought o that?"
He isn't. That's the point. Literally all of it is manufactured by the bene gesserit for their gain and manipulation. Then subsequently manufactured and manipulated by Paul (reluctantly) and his mother (not reluctantly) for their gain.
Loved your reaction as always. You should check out society of the snow. It's a great movie and I would love to hear what you have to say about that one. If you do watch it I recommend the original language with subtitles, the acting was amazing
Now that you have enjoyed the movies it's time for the sleeper to awaken. Every question you asked is answered in the book "Dune". The Bene Gesserit combining the blood lines to produce a man that can see where a woman can not look. The plans of the mutant humans of the Spacing Guild. The Mentat, human computers that make the perfect assassins. The religion of the Fremon. The reason Jessica gave birth to a son instead of the daughter she was ordered to. The time taken to read the book will not be wasted. Bye the way. Paul is not who you think he is.
Next Movie will be Dune Mesiah and then the rise of God Emperor of Dune aka (The Worm god).

1:01:13 Loop it through Jones?
Can the Bene Gesserit determine their children's sex? Yes. It is a matter of the application of certain hormones at certain times or lack thereof. A Bene Gesserit can have conscious control over bodily function, even the autonomic ones.
If a shield and a Las-gun hits there will be a pseudo -nuclear explosion, not good 🙂

1:41:12 - I don’t trust chicks is what I heard.
Right there with you.
Say it with us-“Ben-eh Jez-er-it.”
I don’t get how in the first movie, the Reverend Mother takes the time to test Paul, and counsels the Lady Jessica on how to take advantage of their myths, to survive amongst the Fremen-Then in Dune Part 2, she offhandedly says, yeah, “we told the Emperor to kill them.”
It's called a sucker punch, which is completely believable in this universe.
That is because where Part One tried to stay true to the book, Part Two deviates a lot, reversing a lot of roles.
The Reverend Mother was killing Leto, not Paul. She had no doubt Jessica would be able to save them both if possible.
@ -She was hardly certain Paul and Jessica would live, The Reverend Mother made that very clear in Dune part 1-And in Dune part 2, her words seem to go against what she said in Part 1, she seemed to mean that all Atreides needed to be killed.
Of course in the book this contradiction doesn’t come up-Because in it the Bene Gesserit didn’t plot the Atreides’ murder.
Must watch. But maybe after prophecy at this point!
Hurry!

Dtf down to fremen.
these movies are all of book 1. the next movie is book 2 Dune: Messiah. Dune is just to long and detailed to do as one movie so you have look at 1 and 2 as one HUGE movie. "Is Paul going to move to the dark side..." Oh man Messiah is going to blow your mind...
Dune is an amazing must experience sci-fi story from an era when brutal hopelessness was in vogue. As such it leans heavily into ideas of predestination and free-will being an illusion... which is pretty depressing. I don't love this story, but you need to experience it to be culturally literate.
The original theatrical film does some things better than this one. There is also a made for TV mini-series that does some things better than the other two.
It is possible to ramp up your metabolism. Takes a specifically focused exercise regimen. I'm +50 and mostly maintain my weight through pushing up my metabolism because I want to eat what I want to eat.
My problem is that I had a crazy metabolism up until my mid 20s by doing absolutely nothing and eating rubbish. I had to take weight gainers back in the day and was still stick thin. Now, because I grew up with no health discipline, I can't get used to not eating exactly what I want and getting away with it 😩😂
@@RyanCarrington I'm not a big fan of diet myself. In my observations it is only useful for short term changes.
Another "Carrington event".
I take serious issue with the end of Dune part 2-It totally misunderstood the book.
Firstly, in the book the Great Houses accepted Paul’s ascension to the Golden Lion Throne, and his betrothal to Princess Irulan, his rule was legit. The movie has him spare the Emperor and force Irulan to wed him, only for the houses to reject it. This makes no sense. It makes Paul sparing the Emperor nonsensical. And it means his future foresight is lacking. Which it isn’t! He is the Kwisatz Haderach, he knew what they’d do.
Secondly, he threatened to blow up the Spice fields. No way the Great Houses would risk their Spice supply because they didn’t like Paul. Moreover, this highlights a larger problem in the movie.
It minimizes the role of the Spacing Guild. The Guild has a monopoly on all space travel, not just interstellar. A House cannot even orbit satellites over their own planet without the Guild’s consent. Hence why Arrakis had no satellites-Fremen smugglers bribed the Guild to disallow satellites-So their numbers could be hidden.
The Guild has more power than the Great Houses, the Emperor and the Bene Gesserit-It would never allow the Great Houses to oppose Paul’s rule-The Guild is only interested in Spice production and access.
The book got this, the movie did not.
By the way, the book called Paul’s war The Jihad-PC wimps chickened out for the film.
I personally love the end of this movie. Every adaptation will take some freedoms with the source material, and the changes here are relatively minor from the book. They also set up events much better for Dune Messiah. It can easily be assumed that the Great Houses assumed the spice fields would be safe as long as they didn’t attack directly, and that Paul had actually foreseen all of this. I do agree more about the Spacing Guild tho, but since the decision was made not to really introduce them for real until the next movie, I think this ending works beautifully
7:30 Bruh he s in sauna
Exactly. Whenever I try to take meetings in saunas, I get reported
Again? Mmmmkay.
Thought I'd bring together both reactions into one full-length monster.
Also, I completely overhauled the sound in this cut.
@@RyanCarrington That explains it. Just checked Dune 3 release date: December 18, 2026
edit: sound is superb 👍
40:00 minutes in, and I'm not sure if I'm enjoying the reaction, its seems the dialogues are constantly cut, especially at the most important times. No attention whatsoever in this reaction is given to the dialogues and its meaning, the characters and their interactions. Bit of a shame to be honest.
I just can't show all the dialogue, and if I want to show any monologues, I have to speak at some point in order for me to show the scene at all because of copyright.
In the full-length version, I'm not continually talking. I'm listening for the most part.
There's a lot to take in with regards to dialogue that I was still catching across multiple viewings and while editing. There is definitely a lot of intentional layering for repeat viewings. And a movie as detailed as this will always cause problems for reactions because you have to react and you're always in danger of doing at the wrong point.
But I largely grasped and understood most of it. At least, that's what I've been told. I've been largely praised with regards to what I've picked up on, so this is a humbling comment 🙏
@@RyanCarrington I didn't expect an answer to be honest, so thank you. Deniz Villeneuve once said he would do a movie without dialogues if he could get away with it, because he hates dialogue in movies - not sure if that is a true quote. The original books contain a lot of dialogue, especially inner dialogue (monologue), which he thankfully managed to avoid, something David Lynch wasn't able to in his 80s version. So the bits of dialogue left now in this version are the absolute bare minimum and most important bits to understand the characters and their motivations. There is no superfluous dialogue whatsoever. Every single line is so full of meaning for understanding what is going on, you'll only ever fully understand if you've read the books. I don't want to bore you with the details, but a line of dialogue in the movie can easily convey/summarize whole chapters of the book. So your editing and cutting of some of the most important bits makes me sad. Sorry mate, maybe I will watch the rest of your reaction once I get over it...
You sound like you might be a man who doesn’t have faith and perhaps that keeps you from wanting to get behind Paul and see a bigger picture face has a big part in this movie I read thewhole book and you understand better if you listen closely, less talking !everything has a place in the movie,including faith

You’re a bit immature with your teenage comments left and right how old are you
When the central themes are colonisation and the dangers of messianic figures, all tied into a fuedelist social, economic and political system, it's good to inject some humour.
If you want something slightly heavier, maybe read some Noam Chomsky and give silly reactions a miss.

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

Chani is definitely going to be the one to kill Paul at the end of the 3rd movie.

That would be an absolutely wild departure from the source material
