Besides Raven and the rest of Branch are poo poo disturbers who set off the whole Coral scramble so it wouldn't surprise me if they knew about Walter and Observer's plan to feed the fire.

Terrible Opinions posted:This dismisses Farmer Maggot being Tom's informant, despite the Tom Bambadil poems confirming that the two are at least close associates if not friends. They also establish that Farmer Maggot can speak to birds, or at least communicate through them. Though it is possible Farmer Maggot is a similar force of darkness. Listen, I'm sure the being named after entities that feed on decay is completely... oh...

The Atreides, the Fremen don't use shields in the first place (pisses off worms, iirc)

Hmm, yeah, I see your point. I always just thought it was Walter's dream to see that poo poo burn so it's all very tied up in my mind with him imo, and the way Urban delivers the lines is very much in Walter's detached cynical style. I'm not saying it's canon or whatever, mostly just the very first impression I had.

xpost from the BYOB dream journal threadkalel posted:I watched dunc 2 and it was bafflingly edited. lots of scenes ended abruptly without resolution, shots appeared out of order, characters even spoke with the wrong voices. the most coherent (yet still blatantly wrong) part was when—actual spoilers for the dune novel by frank herbert—paul tells chani he intends to make her his concubine after he marries irulan, chani (unlike in the novel) gets vocally upset about how hosed an arrangement that is and paul gets defensive and starts whining at her, affecting some kind of high pitched spoiled eight year old voice. "chaniiiii come onnnnn! I wanna be the emperorrrrr "

Someone getting hold of an editor's assembly and saying it's bafflingly edited. Lol early versions of films aren't films at all. I remember seeing Argo's editor's assembly and it was trash and mostly focused on his wife played by Taylor Schilling. The final edit of the movie almost completely removed Taylor Schilling and won Best Picture. (to be clear I like Taylor Schilling and think she's good but the point stands)

I know I'm a bit late to the discussion, but it takes more suspension of disbelief than I can muster to think that Jason Momoa would be horrified by an invitation to a muscle lady orgy so I guess that means he's not the ideal Duncan. Although from what a friend told me Momoa was apparently really enthusiastic about the role so that's cool.

He had just gotten cast as Duncan and my brother was there in the parking lot heading in to pitch a script and out comes Momoa screaming like a loving viking and understandably when you see Khal Drogo running around screaming at the top of his lungs and pushing on cars it can take you back a step.

feedmegin posted:The Atreides, the Fremen don't use shields in the first place (pisses off worms, iirc) Beast Rabban did want to use them on the Freman but the Baron was basically like "Haha, no, gently caress you." I do think one of the funnier jokes in Dune is that Rabban is right about almost everything he says and the Baron is just like "Oh, you stupid moron, you complete idiot, you don't know what you're talking about."

I rewatched the 1984 movie again in its entirety and one of the weirdest moments is where the Baron learns about Alia and starts flipping out and screaming. I swear it's one of the weird edits that must have been meant for some other dialogue or something. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4efFOCJNnLg&t=123s

i started my yearly rereading of the six books* early to prepare my balls of ibad for dunc deux and reached the part in dune where jessica is in the sietch and someone sticks their hand through the curtains and hands her coffee and she drinks it and thinks "man, i'm glad the sietch has this weird hivemind because of all these space drugs, i don't even have to worry about being poisoned by mystery gloryhole coffee" and it got me thinking do you guys think there's an inverse of that in jacurutu, where people offer you stuff and you immediately reject it because you know you're all water stealing shitheads, of course this fucker pissed in the literjon? * the only ones that exist, written by the only true duneauthor, pbuh** **
