in the film they barely talk (in fact I don't think they exchange one line of dialogue before hooking up, Chani says some quote from the book and then Paul thinks "I love her")

that's pretty accurate to the book as i recall. he sees her a couple of times and decides he loves her, then smash cut to two years later and he has a one-year-old baby. she barely has any lines.

the weird sex thing that always gets me about dune is that paul and chani are 17 and 15, respectively, when they have their first baby, leto II the elder who is killed in the sietch raid. he got her knocked up when she was 14.

i know they're supposed to be space tribespeople and all but gross. gross

huh, i hadn't thought about their ages before. i guess because my mental image is always of the movie actors, who are definitely not that young lol

i mean i guess paul has been having visions of chani for a while so maybe when he sees her he's just like "welp this is who i marry"

I could believe that but literally everything else in the film works the same way. Just about the only thing they "show" is the shield fight stuff, which doesn't matter at all, and the bad guys being bad which is pretty effective tbh (it's easy to tell who's bad because they're ginger)

The King is King Arthur. I'd say literally nothing else is relevant, and the film diverges from the end of the source material.

I feel like if you're trying to make a live action version of an animu, copying the exact costumes (and maybe copying the visual style too closely in general) is an extremely bad idea but what do I know.

i'd rather they go too close then do the "realistic costumes" thing where everyone is wearing the same grey and black jackets

i feel like if it's going to be extremely bad it'll be because it's a netflix production and they don't have the budget or skill to pull it off. looking at the promo stills there, i'd say they've perfectly captured the look of "low budget cable production" or "cosplayers on an instagram set"

either way is probably fine. theres no canonical version of the story and the movie is its own thing. it makes sense without the foreknowledge of the story.

faye's costume is not really accurate to the anime because you can't see most of her skin. spike's costume is just a suit which is fine. jet is the only one who doesn't really work irl
