Ladies.
Yeah Messiah is definitely not getting made into a movie. Seriously, I’ll bet next month’s mortgage on it. Villenuve has some stroke, but what Hollywood exec is going to green-light a major film based on that book? This a 2-film series, period. Dune novel “happy ending,” we’re done.

I wouldn't be so confident that they would close out the opportunity to extend monetizing a brand that has been reasonably successful in its new incarnation so far. People who know anything about dune know that the brand expansion prospect becomes more and more questionable the more you adapt, but I think warners guys would let that slide pretty easily given two successful movies and enough coke

I don’t see why this is so unlikely. Hollywood is obsessed with antiheroes.

Also, WB will be happy to make if Part 2 does well. Plenty of shittier movies get undeserving brand extensions every year.

Now that WB has lost Nolan, I wouldn’t be surprised if they are looking to Villeneuve to fill a similar role in their arsenal.

Unfortunately after the first book I would think the failson’s works would be the most likely targets for adaptation.

Which sucks because I want a couple God Emperor movies by Denis so bad.

Yeah I think assuming movie 2 is successful, it's more likely they boot denis for being a pain in the rear end and continue the brand with eg failson stuff than just do nothing. Get the hollow shell who directs fantastic beasts to do them, boom you got a warners style plan

quote:

This follow-up film will explore the mythic journey of Paul Atreides as he unites with Chani and the Fremen while on a warpath of revenge against the conspirators who destroyed his family. Facing a choice between the love of his life and the fate of the known universe, he endeavors to prevent a terrible future only he can foresee.

Exactly!

I don’t think Denis would be super keen on doing the whole saga anyway but I could dream.

They already hosed up all the intricately woven plot (by not including any of it), why do you expect it to get better in the sequel?

It's a pretty movie with passable soundtrack and a few well cast actors, nothing more.

No, it’s in there. Paul has this moment right before he confronts the emperor, or maybe even during their meeting, where he realizes that he’s completely failed to stop the jihad and that even if he lets the emperor’s champion kill him now, it will just happen anyway in the name of his martyrdom. It is missable though, which is why Messiah basically has Paul spell out in monosyllables that he’s objectively worse than Hitler.

Way before that. In one of the first sietches they reach after joining Stilgar, right after the Jamis fight, he realizes the whispers of him being the messiah have grown so strong that nothing short of the death of himself, his mother, and everyone else in the troop will prevent the Jihad.

It's wild how you get that and HYPNOBONG in such a short stretch.
