    Frank Herbert's point was never to discuss whether Paul was a Messiah or not, he was, the real point was that Messiahs are bad for society. Actual quote from the book - "No more terrible disaster could befall your people than for them to fall into the hands of a hero."

      Herbert was a genius. The story is very complex and I think Grace once again missed the point. But I am glad that she at least didn't "fall asleep" on this one. I loved both part One and Two. I think Chalamet was able to portray the inner turmoil that Paul has to push through. Thanks!

    There is just a lot of nuance to so many of the scenes. For example, when Paul defeats Feyd, it's in the same way he loses to Gurney during the first movie. Paul thinks he has landed the killing blow on Gurney but Gurney's knife is already pressed up to Paul's stomach below. Feyd thinks he has Paul checkmated but then gets stabbed through the stomach.

    Paul is not the Messiah. He is not any messiah. He is a perfectly curated disaster to the culture of the Fremen. He fits the Fremen religion which is as a result of propaganda. I mean look at Stilgar. In Part One he's a somewhat regal naib of the Fremen. I don't know if this is intentional but in Part Two Stilgar is basically destroyed by belief. He loses his individuality, becomes even comedic sometimes, a microcosm of the Fremen. It's really tragic to me. Paul is a warning. I love that the movie makes this really clear.

    Having read the book version of the gladiator scene, I thought they adapted Feyd’s whole approach to fighting so well. Cause in the book it goes into how Feyd very much respects valiant fighters and touches on the idea that if he wasn’t raised in the brutal Harkonnen world where he was taught to deal with tragedy violently, he could’ve ended up more like Paul as a more controlled patient, less impulsive figure. Also loved the way he kinda respects Paul fairly in the end, cause despite the violent front he actually might very much be the most respectful and understanding of the Harkonenns

    Paul turned full-Darth Vader by the end. I mean, the robe switch from brown to dark brown is kinda of a gimme. Dune 2 is ABSOLUTELY the Empire Strikes Back of the soon-to-be trilogy.
    The way Paul acknowledged the Baron as his grandfather, cemented his truth that he was Harkonnen, destined to be one with the enemy of his father and his family. I'd like to think that the Baron died in shock with the realization that even with all his scheming, a grander scheme was in place, even greater than he realized, and he dying with that knowledge. I LOVED the change that he was the one to kill the Baron vs. Lynch's Dune.

This could speak to broader trends around shorter attention spans and accessibility standards in media, though also highlights the challenges in adapting such a sprawling novel series.
      While Dune has resonated critically and with whole generations of audiences, its philosophical and political depth may not be as accessible for viewers accustomed to more straightforward plot dynamics and worldbuilding unfortunately.

    Paul cannot be a real messiah because, as far as I'm aware, there is no God in the Dune universe. Paul is the result of the Bene Gesserit's careful crossing of bloodlines, mentat training (human supercomputer) and sword training by some of the best fighters in the universe. Over the centuries, the Bene Gesserit have popularized a profecy that says there will be someone like Paul coming in the future. So when Paul comes to Arrakis and the spice boosts his mentals capacities and visions, he becomes the Kwisatz Haderach, but it's the result of planning and training, not intervention from God. Although it is hard to see how the tear situation could be engineered, I agree

      Although I do understand your distinction - Paul is not divine, he is in fact the Messiah for the Fremen. The Bene Geserit created him and created the prophecy only be could fulfill there. He is the fulfillment of their political aspirations, but also this fulfills the religious aspirations of the Fremen. We see the distinction because we are outside observers to this universe.

    One detail the movie took out was that Chani was the daughter of a Fremen woman and an imperial planetologist. Her part in the prophecy could have been pre-arranged by the Bene Gesserit, and Paul seeing her in his vision could be his genetic memory from a past Bene Gesserit seeing one of Chani's ancestors.

    BABY GOATS! What a colorful and important point Grace, I think this cast really will be looked back on as a collection of acting GOATs all in their early shine.
    A couple of story points you might find interesting:
    1. Chani's name had originally come from "some stupid prophecy", so in a way her fulfilling the prophecy can still be seen as a Bene Gesseritt manipulation - this might point to why Jessica was so insistent on her being the one to revive Paul.
    2. The sand compactors were shown by Duncan Idaho in the first movie and explain how the Fremen hide in the sand and build their tents in them - it sense out sonic vibrations in the sand that cause it to become liquid -like. The sandworms use a version of this to move through the desert - it's based on real physics!
    3. This is strictly a book detail but in the novel, the Fremen have actually developed the ability to heal cuts quickly to preserve their bodies' water content - a mix of evolution and one of the health benefits of the spice melange. This is why book readers were not surprised to see Paul survive several cuts at the end.

  • @Dunybrook

    I think having Feyd-Rautha fight mostly drugged oppoenents kind of cheapens his eventual duel with Paul. Should have made him more of a threat.
    Paul definitely used his visions to manipulate the Fremen and he's not really their messiah but something more powerful in a way since he has the ability to affect the entire fate of the known universe.

      I mean that literally is how it is in the book. the two knife that he have in the arena the short white blade is supposed to be poison and his opponent are supposed to know that but he cheat so that the long black one is poison instead. Feyd is a character that will manipulate everything to get his way. The Atreides that wasn’t drug was to show if he could really thrive in a fair fight.

    He is the messiah, but the messiah has nothing divine attached to it, it's manufactured by the Bene Gesserit, which also explains everything you discuss during the "he is the Nexus, at the right time", that's not by chance, even if it happens 1 generation too soon.

Instead of quickly ending Paul when he had the upper hand he slowly approaches and wants to make the whole thing intimate almost. Whereas for Paul pain is purpose: he knew he had to get close to Feyd, pain be dammned, so he can deliver the killing blow. Fascinating stuff

    Zendaya’s Chani is my favorite character. She’s the most grounded character to me. She falls in love with Paul when he shows his sincerity in wanting to fight with the Fremen. But once she sees that Paul’s ambitions are outgrowing her desires to free her people, she abandons him, choosing not to follow him. She sees through all the Bene Gesserit manipulation and constantly questions and pushes back against the “miracles” she witnesses.
