I liked the New Sun books and the frankly challenging use of antiquated terminology in it but the protagonist is sort of just Guy Stuff Happens To. I feel like Terminus Est had more character than he did. I also remember the "Ascians" being cold war racist horseshit.

Except that the Ascians were actually Americans? Not sure you read the book enough.

Weird, I did a Bing Video search for “whale fur,” but I didn’t get any Dune-related results.

Why can't he just faithfully adapt the book now that he's shown he knows how to wield the attitude of the knife that Arrakis teaches, instead of making GBS threads all over the source material like 90% of other science fiction movie adaptations of books?

As I recall, Jessica and Paul each spend like 10 or 20 pages tripping hard on Spice and/or seeing the future in the back half of the book.

The book is quite bare bones from here to the end, lots of things happening off camera or being internal

Same but with that trick with a joint, a chilled pint glass of ice and a straw. And with a busy dim sum restaurant instead of a movie theater

of a full load.



In the movie, when Paul had the vision in the tent where he has the master chief looking gold suit on, is that showing where he gets the idea for taking over as emperor? The suit he’s wearing kind of looks similar to the sardukar suits.

Also every time I hear the wailing in the soundtrack it reminds me of the stillsuit poop video and it’s amusing as all hell.

stillsuits remind me of poopy suits from that 60s airforce mst3k movie where the entirety of the plot is a series of training missions mostly focused on refueling

and then there was an interview with an astronaut talking about training for spacewalks inside the pool and one day he decided to poop in his space suit as a test and everyone was like wtf dont ever do that again

The new Dune def. deserves the oscars. I'm really glad it got recognized.

Really hard story to adapt and it's just visually ace and it does have shortcomings but I can't really fault most of them vOv it's a good rear end movie.

Ghanima once said
As I walked the open bled
That the worms would hear the sound of my boots
She was looking kinda sad
With a crysknife in her hand
In a sheathe on the belt of her stillsuit

Well the spice starts flowing and it don't stop flowing
Eat too much and your eyes will start glowing
Didn't make sense to live in the past
The Empire's a tripod, you know it won't last

Open up
The eye within
Let the sandtrout crawl over your skin
Then just look forward and see
The future that therefore must be

Hey now, you're Duke Leto, the second of his name
Hey now, you're a sandworm, with a man’s face and brain
Guilt belabors the dead
Only lonely worms cross the bled

It's a dry place
But it could be wetter
The vision of Liet was to make this world better
But the visions I see in my head
Show me a galaxy with billions dead

The Ixians will make a device
That might someday wipe out all life
And so to save humanity
I'll enslave them so they'll someday be free

Hey now, you're Duke Leto, the second of his name
Hey now, you're the Tyrant, putting worlds to the flame
Guilt belabors the dead
Only lonely worms cross the bled

My father once asked
When I saw the Golden Path
If I felt I was too scared to try
I said "No"
"You will not go"
"So I have to walk the Path myself"
And then a stone burner burnt out his eyes

Well the years fly by and the years fly by
Three thousand later, I can finally die
Didn't make sense just to live enslaved
To a dream of humanity finally saved

No more to do, no more to see
So I let Duncan Idaho kill me
Supports on the bridge go crash
The world disappears with a splash

Hey now, you're Duke Leto, the second of his name
Hey now, you're a sandtrout, ruling beyond the grave
Guilt belabors the dead
Only lonely worms cross the bled
