Finally explains Ben Shapiro: he married a Fremen woman. Not really; she would've rendered his water fat rear end for the good of the sketch by now.

Cacator posted:Spotlight was clearly nobody's first choice, but I'm glad the Revenant didn't win because Innaritu's a prick (refused to applaud for any awards that Fury Road won). Really? That's terrible. Was there some kind of long running feud there, or was he just being a massive snob?

I was openly cheering for Fury Road despite being with my coworkers at an Oscar party where we all worked on the Revenant campaign and specifically the academy campaign for it.

Riot Bimbo posted:getting a newbie to drink the highly viscous spit coffee is the "the bong water gets you high" of sietch life Is this part in the book - possibly in the Dune Encyclopedia - or was it made up for the Villeneuve adaptation? Additionally, since I'm on the topic, Chani stabbing Paul in his visions is also something created for Denis' film, right?

Mister Speaker posted:
prescience is described as emerging from mentat-like training and information processing combined with the psychedelic mystic elements of Spice use to sort of spit out possible futures. but like, showing that on a screen is hard. So you show little flashes of single possibilities. We know Chani doesn't ever harm Paul, narratively, so the depiction is just a theoretical possibility. There are a few that are like this. Where Jamis is shown being friendly to Paul, might've been a literal possibility if Paul had followed some path to that outcome. with the way the book is, something like this fits in the idea of what prescience is, even if the scene itself is never depicted, and honestly idk if it was or not.

Riot Bimbo posted:prescience is described as emerging from mentat-like training and information processing combined with the psychedelic mystic elements of Spice use to sort of spit out possible futures. what's cool about how dv chose to depict prescience is not only that it's consistent with the book's description (as much as it can be in a linear visual medium), but it also works as a visual metaphor for what actually comes to pass. Chani stabs Paul in the vision because she gives him the means through which "Paul Atreides may die so the Kwisatz Haderach may rise." Paul befriends Jamis in the vision because "he will show him the ways of the desert." much like a lot of dv's dune, several readings are supported. it can work both as an externally-dependent element of adaptation, and as a self-contained element of filmic language. the visions could be possible futures (a reading explicitly confirmed by the text but not explicitly in the film) or they could be a diagetic metaphor (a reading impossible to show in the book but which the film implies through the language of the visual medium).

EDIT: ^^^ drat, thank you! Exactly what I was thinking of and more concise. And you remembered the line!Riot Bimbo posted:prescience is described as emerging from mentat-like training and information processing combined with the psychedelic mystic elements of Spice use to sort of spit out possible futures. I know, I actually thought it was a really elegant way of depicting the uncertainty of prescience onscreen. Also, there's a line in the film, it may be Paul or it may be one of the voices speaking to him in his visions... this reminds me, I think one of these voices is still unaccounted for, and some are speculating that the voice actor credited may end up being our Ramallo or whoever the RM in Sietch Tabr was. Anyway, there is a line I'm trying to find during one of Paul's visions of Chani killing him - it strongly implies that the 'killing' may just be a metaphor for her changing him into what he must become. Similarly, in light of this we can see his visions of Jamis' lessons being things that he 'taught' him immediately in mortal combat. It's kind of frustrating because so far I haven't found a screenplay that actually reflects what we saw and heard in the theatre, but I know the line is there. An interesting perspective; the visions are both alternate future possibilities and symbols that Jamis does teach Paul lessons; that Chani (and the Fremen in general) do end up 'killing' him in a sense. But yeah I don't think the actual stabby-stabby part is in the book at all. Traded it out for "tell me of your homeworld, Usul."
