Sapho is in the book. I haven't gone to the trouble of finding a specific quote or page but it's in the glossary in the back of the book and definitely says mentats claim it's brainroids. Also mentions the red staining of the lips.

I'm pretty sure there's a passage somewhere that mentions it in the text too but I ain't gonna go hunting for it. I can't imagine it's in the glossary if it wasn't.

Now I need to know if Lynch came up with the line "it is by will alone I set my mind in motion" because if so he needs to write the Dune extended universe novels instead of failson.

I can't imagine it's in the glossary if it wasn't. quote:Paul looked at his father, back to Hawat, suddenly conscious of the Mentat's great age, aware that the old man had served three generations of Atreides. Aged. It showed in the rheumy shine of the brown eyes, in the cheeks cracked and burned by exotic weathers, in the rounded curve of the shoulders and the thin set of his lips with the cranberry-colored stain of sapho juice.

Lynch is credited with the screenplay at least.

Hey I’m a film industry type! Ok I watch maybe half the films I work on. It’s demonstrably less for union types like the tatted up crew who smoke everywhere and nobody has the balls to ask them to stop even in 2019 Los Angeles.

Taking into consideration they work on a shitload of different movies all the time and most are by the numbers garbage, not surprising.

I don't see the problem. I also don't watch most of the movies industry types make.

I am a film industry type and there's no point watching films/tv shows you've worked on, at least for me. I find it difficult to not just constantly relate what's on screen to what it was like shooting that scene: oh they chose that take instead of the other one, hmm they only used three angles on this scene when we did twelve set ups, this actor was a real dick I hope I never work with him again, oh that's what the guy in a green suit looks like with the CGI, didn't we shoot this scene on the day they served that terrible lasagna for lunch everyone hated? etc. etc. etc. It's pointless and I don't engage with the story.

Liquid Dinosaur posted:And then he fucks his mom and gets bullet time? I think? Bullet time was unrelated. He got bullet time from getting electro-waterboarded. The rape was to revive the original from his ghola and iirc it was Sheeana. Lucilla was the one that was going to rape the Duncan ghola, and that's not Teg's daughter, just another BG of the Siona line that looked a lot like Jessica, as did Odrade.

It was mostly this reason they gave, also that they just don’t really care about movies other than a job. And many movies are just crap. Oh and one guy who hated Hollywood because it’s run by the Illuminati for evil mind control and child sex slavery and world dominance. That guy was interesting. Didn’t stop him collecting a paycheck from it.

Murray Mantoinette posted:Bullet time was unrelated. He got bullet time from getting electro-waterboarded. That said, I do confess I like that part, as well as the bits with Duncan and Murbella on the slums of Geidi Prime since they’re the only real looks we ever get of how average schmucks live in this universe. And it’s got some cool stuff, and there’s a lot more I can’t even remember. There’s sewer workers who have been bred to lack a sense of smell, there’s roving gangs of street kids who’ll lynch anyone who doesn’t accept Leto II as their lord and savior, etc. Oh and that is also the part of the book where Murbella acts all high and mighty about her superior sexual knowledge, and then whichever BG Sister is there is like “excuse me bitch, while it’s true that the HM sexology corpus is far in advance of our own, you’re just a HM novice where I’m the premier Sexologist in the entire Bene Gesserit and have written multiple treatises on how to [various kinky poo poo only Old Frank would think to write] etc.” Edit: unrelated (I think), but I just remembered that there’s furries in Heretics, genetically engineered to fight the Honored Matres. But I think the Honored Matres’ Mother Superior has one as a cabana boy? God, if you cut out or at least heavily toned down the sex stuff, Heretics of Dune would be what I’d expect and want from Dune EU licensed fanfiction. Like at least it has the feel for the world, and doesn’t have robots fighting a conventional war against humans because somebody yeeted a baby out a window.

When I have a free moment at work I can find the entire passage on Kindle and post it. Is that allowed if I use citations? Okay I was wrong about which characters were involved. It's someone named Sirafa? I have no loving idea who she is, and the wiki turns up nothing. Kindle says it starts around page 330 and goes till 334, because it's a dialogue exchange, but Ebook pages are weird. "Herbert, F. (1984). Heretics of Dune. Of. 332-334. New York: Putnams Sons. posted:Lucilla nodded curtly. “Very good,” Sirafa said. “May I presume you can administer vaginal pulsing?” On one hand it's extremely , but on the other this is one of the most organic conversations in the series. Because Frank doesn't know what it's like to be a psychic space-bedouin warrior who doesn't bathe, but he does know what it's like to be extremely horny.

I though he was joking so I laughed along but he was deadly serious. At the beginning of the playoffs he correctly called 3/4 teams in the NFL championship games and who would win the Super Bowl...because it was obvious which teams the Illuminati wanted to win just by their names. E: If anyone is curious it was 2011. He picked: Saints (because the Catholic Church and Mardi Gras are actually Illuminati Saturn/satan idolaters) Patriots (because the Illuminati want to create nationalistic sentiment in order to get people ready for the next global holocaust) Giants (who are actually named after the biblical nephilim) Ravens (animal that ate the bodies of the dead after the great flood) Phil Moscowitz fucked around with this message at 14:49 on Aug 2, 2019 |
