In the book you find out they take Paul’s threat to destroy the spice seriously. One of the reps loses a contact lens and shows the Eyes of Ibad, aka spice addiction. Paul has them all by the throat and they know it.
@@rbrearey yes because around the time Paul commenced his final attack... He told one of his Fremen, I believe it was Otheym of sietch Gara Kulon... To take a supply of the changed water of Life... And wait with it near a very large and volatile pre spice Mass. Had Otheym received a certain order from Paul... He and his men would have dumped the water of Life into the pre spice mass. From now on on it would have been the water of death. It would have caused a chain reaction that would have destroyed all melange on arrakis spreading death among the makers killing an entire cycle of life. Arrakis would have become a true desolation. Without makers or spice. Without the spice The navigators would have become blind. The Bene Gesserit would have lost all their powers. All commerce among the great houses would cease. The empire would have been lost on isolated scattered planets. Civilization itself would end. If Paul muad'dib was not obeyed spice would not flow!
Richard Patterson nah man, BotW has a fair few major problems... it's cool you love it though. Agreed that Skyrim is boring AF now. Very little replay value to me.
I know people tend to criticize this movie version, but I love it. The look, the styling, and the sense of Paul's growth. The characterizations are perfect.
Me too. I am disappointed that there are so few sci fi films that invite you to live in a really alien but coherent universe and planet. I suppose 2001 is up there and gives you a sense of wonder, scale and destiny. Everything else mostly is horror or cops and robbers set in space. And now woke preaching. Yuk!
The movie is a real mixed back. Some scenes are almost exactly how I imagined them in the books, and the dialogue is almost exactly carried over. The pain box scene stands out especially in that regard. Other's, like the "sound guns" or Paul making it rain suddenly on Arrakis were random as hell. I still think Kyle is leagues beyond Timothee in terms of his portrayal of Paul.
I love the dialog in Lynch's movie, it's so stylized and anachronistic. Everything just seems more formal and foreign. It really drives home that this is a time apart from ours. I liked the new movies and have seen them both multiple times now but I miss the dialog from the original.
@@nickthephoenix8494 Dune 2?? Why would you think it would be in the second movie. There's supposed to be a trilogy. What would be left if this scene was in the second movie?
@@flybeep1661 oh, is it supposed to be a trilogy? I didn't know that. I assumed it would be because Paul says in the trailer, "may thy knife chip and shatter", which I thought was from his duel with Feyd Rautha. Could be mistaken though. Also they'll probably cut some scenes anyway because they did in the first movie.
What people forget, or just don't know, is that the Bene Gesserit as an organization is thousands of years old and have their fingers in everything. They are essentially the Catholic Church if the Church was in every nation and every capitol in the world. Helen Mohaim is the head of the Bene Gesserit and thus akin to the Pope. She's one of the most powerful people in the Empire. Paul telling her to be silent and instantly subduing her is unprecedented in history and a major slap down of the BG.
the Church IS in every nation and every capitol. They have spies and agents everywhere. They own so much that even their agents don't know they are actually working for the Church.

Alamyst2011 , its not that, its the constant bad reviews or comments I've read over the years, which i never understood because I fell in love with it when I first saw it as a kid.
By itself, the movie is actually pretty good. But because it's based on the novel, there's certain expectations that it didn't meet. And they changed a lot of the story elements, or briefly brushed over them via a narrator. I saw the movie quite a few times before I ever read the books. I was able to enjoy the movie for what it was. But I get it... I read the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice after seeing Interview with the Vampire. Then, they decided to come out with a movie adaptation of Queen of the Damned. I couldn't enjoy the movie. It was pure crap. They changed so much of the story that I couldn't enjoy it. I couldn't get past how bad they butchered one of my favorite books.
I may be totally wrong about this, but I think that audiences were put off by hearing the characters' thoughts all the time. I love the movie, but that is a really weird choice that Lynch made. I honestly can't think of one other movie that I've seen that in.
@@SuperTonyony Actually Tony, that is one of the few things even detractors of the movie agree were needed: there is a lot of thoughts in the book that just can't be conveyed in facial experessions, and was really needed to get some points across to people new to the story. The only 'thought' I felt wasn't needed was 'I will bend as a reed in the wind!' which was a/ not from the book and b/ obvious as fuck what he did once he did it.
The Guild Envoy being there to put the emporer in his place is important storytelling in regard to the hierarchy of the universe and who is actually in control.
Right. And silencing the emperor to let Paul speak was a big deal. I wish all this was in the new movie. The silence was awesome, but they left out too much. And there are other parts of the movies where I thought they spent too much time.
For some weird reason I really like that this movie kept the inner dialogues. I consider that kinda cool. And some designs are pretty amazing, too. The sandworms were the most beautiful that I've ever seen. Unintentionally funny is still funny. If I want really great Dune, I can always read the book.
"If I want really great Dune, I can always read the book" I couldn't agree more with this statement. And yes, watching this movie is always an amazing and surreal experience, despite it's flaws.
The beauty of actually using the medium. Creators cannot completely deliver the experience the original material can provide to the reader in an adaption. But, they can certainly make their own. Lynch’s Dune is so deeply flawed, yet undoubtedly a cinematic experience.
@@trazyntheinfinite9895 did Paul have a grown man's voice tho? I can't remeber how old he was at the end of the book, but at the start he was just a teenager.
We caught a glimpse of this scene in the latest Dune trailer, looking forward to seeing it EDIT - After seeing the movie, I can gladly say watching Timothee Chalamet yell at people was one of my highlights.
It's also one of the few places it straight up improves on the book. Except for the rain of course. Take that away, just have Alia screeching that Paul is the Kwisatz Haderach, and it's gold. Certainly much better than the book's actual last line: "Think on it, Chani: the princess will have the name, yet she'll live as less than a concubine - never to know a moment of tenderness from the man to whom she's bound. While we, Chani, we who carry the name of concubine - history will call us wives.”
Correction: The STORY is epic. This original MOVIE is a poorly edited "Cliff Notes" version. They tried hard with the costumes and cinematography and special effects (worms) but it just utterly failed, in my opinion, to capture the sweeping epic of the book, nor its underlying messages about technology and the corruption of power.
This movie is and was awesome, for 1984, effects are good and Lynch did as good a job as possible cramming the entire story of the books into 3 hours. You may not have a nuances of the books, but the overall integrity of the story was captured. Not to mention this epic scene, hope this and Paul’s soul crushing weirding of Fade is included in the new movie in some form. This was a superb movie!
Find the Spicediver 3-hr fan edit of this film (DUNE 1984). He manages to gives us a true glimpse of the masterpiece that this movie could have been. Forget all the other so-called “official” versions of this movie. The Spicediver version is the absolute definitive version of this film. He fixes so many issues with the editing of the film that it almost makes David Lynch himself to want to come back and re-embrace his estranged child (this film) and give it the proper director’s cut it deserves-along the very lines that Spicediver has laid out for Lynch. I mean with such a cast, it’s impossible to think that this movie ever was a flop. Spicediver will show you why it should have been a true cinematic classic!
Try looking into that place you dare not look amd you will see me staring back at you. Ball tingle commencing after I hear that. This whole movie gets me jacked up.
Everything was great. Acting, effects, music... I guess its only flaw is that it is one movie tackling that enormous universe created by Frank Herbert.
I describe David Lynch's 'Dune' as his greatest movie ... but, sadly, his greatest tragedy ... That was not his doing, per-se ... he was undone by taking on a massive universe contained in the first novel alone , which, as someone above suggested, really ought have been three, 2hr, movies, instead of cramming it into just one ... On top of that, the inevitably meddling of a studio too stupid to understand the masterpiece that Lynch was creating ... if I had it my way, he would have been given a $150 million budget (a massive amount of money for a movie in those days ... even Titanic, by David Cameron, was just shy over $100 million ... ), and simply told to get on with making it ... and have the patience to wait until he had finished it ... There is another version, floating around, which David Lynch used a pseudonym instead of his own, which contains a different opening, and various other scenes not in the orginal. In fact, someone did splice the two together in the scene where the Third Stage Guild Navigator meets the Emperor, but could not overcome the changes in aspect ratios, which makes it a tad jarring to watch ... Hence my dream of winning the American Powerball; buying the rights to both versions; digitally restoring both; then splice them together, using the best aspect ratio ... it will create a very long version, of possible 4-5+ hrs long, but such a heroic faliure needs to be given the full dignity it deserves ...
I can not wait to see this scene in the new Dune movie. No doubt it will be more accurate to the actual conversation in the book, but it must be at least as epic and powerful as this.
i dont know if this was the most epic part of the movie, i always thought the part where Paul hears a fremen use his fremen name and it accidently turned out to be a killing word, was pretty epic.
Ζήνων i care! Watched the movie, loved the movie but those sounds they make when shooting seemed idiotic. Then, watched the movie again. Then, read the first book. I didn't see any stupidity like that in the book and I relieved.
Try the scene from the original Conan the Barbarian film, with Rexor, Thulsa Doom and Thorgrim standing beneath the black sun/black moon standard. It's just before Thulsa Doom kills Conan's mother.
I always laugh at this scene because it's basically just multiple people being told to shut up.
In the most epic way possible.

The beauty of actually using the medium. Creators cannot completely deliver the experience the original material can provide to the reader in an adaption. But, they can certainly make their own. Lynch’s Dune is so deeply flawed, yet undoubtedly a cinematic experience.
Such a wonderfully flawed gem, this version of Dune. Kyle is perfect as Paul and this scene is one of the best in the film.
The actors are fantastic
Dune 2000 was my first game on pc. Great memories!
Same!
Long live the insidious Ordos, Lol!
Anyone else coming back to this clip after seeing Denis Villeneuve's version of this scene? The "SILENCE!" hits so much harder
which silence hits harder?
new one more intense @@salman_3833
"Usul no longer needs the weirding module"
XD this shit never was in the book so stupid
ME: [flipping back through novel] Wait...the what?
@@gospelofrye6881 I still love those. I read the book way later. Grew up with the extended tv version,
Can't wait for Timothé to shout at that old lady in Dune Part 2
With a bit of luck he will have grown a voice by then.
@@trazyntheinfinite9895 did Paul have a grown man's voice tho? I can't remeber how old he was at the end of the book, but at the start he was just a teenager.
It was intimidating
We caught a glimpse of this scene in the latest Dune trailer, looking forward to seeing it
EDIT - After seeing the movie, I can gladly say watching Timothee Chalamet yell at people was one of my highlights.
Silence - he said calmly
This is probably the most badass scene in the entire movie. Muad'Dib putting the Emperor of the entire known universe and his lackeys in their place.
It's also one of the few places it straight up improves on the book. Except for the rain of course. Take that away, just have Alia screeching that Paul is the Kwisatz Haderach, and it's gold. Certainly much better than the book's actual last line:
"Think on it, Chani: the princess will have the name, yet she'll live as less than a concubine - never to know a moment of tenderness from the man to whom she's bound. While we, Chani, we who carry the name of concubine - history will call us wives.”
There're a lot of people basically telling each other to shut up in this scene.
Now I want to read the book and see the movie again. Thanks Internet.
Here after Timothee did this, even if it was just in the trailer
"He'll know.. he'll know.. that it is I.. BARON VLADIMIR HARKONEN who encompasses his DOOM! HAHAHA.. HAAAAA"
Spoken from inside the gut of a worm!
🤣👍
I always took the, "Hahaha haaaa" as laughed by the Beast Rabban, not the Baron.
And he wound up being a Scooby snack for a sand worm.
God DAMN what a commanding voice and presence. Imho much more regal than the new version.
God this movie was so underrated the dialogue was amazing
This film was heavily criticised but it is an epic. I could watch it a hundred times and find something new every time.
Correction: The STORY is epic. This original MOVIE is a poorly edited "Cliff Notes" version. They tried hard with the costumes and cinematography and special effects (worms) but it just utterly failed, in my opinion, to capture the sweeping epic of the book, nor its underlying messages about technology and the corruption of power.
"And his word shall carry death eternal to those who stands against righteousness"
Cue...Sting. Righteous!?
This movie is and was awesome, for 1984, effects are good and Lynch did as good a job as possible cramming the entire story of the books into 3 hours. You may not have a nuances of the books, but the overall integrity of the story was captured.
Not to mention this epic scene, hope this and Paul’s soul crushing weirding of Fade is included in the new movie in some form.
This was a superb movie!
the whole movie is an epic moment
This scene actually fits the book, despite it’s many problems, it’s got that same tone
how dare you speak to me-
STOP SPEAKING
you mustnt be-
SILENCE
Anyone else come back here after the 3rd trailer? lol
So happy to see DV is adapting this scene
Me🙋♂️
"Try looking into that place you dare not look. You'll find me there staring back at you."
Sting: "Is he that little black spot in the sun today?"
Me: "Yes."
LMAO!!!
Saw this in theater when it came out. The days of an intermission when movie was long.
And they handed out a playbill.
When I found out that Dune was directed by David Lynch I suddenly realized that Kyle Mclaughlin is the lead in both this and Twin speaks
and they're both GREAT!
He also played the lead in David Lynch's "Blue Velvet"
Twin Speaks feels intentional and if so, I applaud you for it.
the looks on the faces of Fremen in the background before and after the word, "Silence!' - subtle piece of great direction
Find the Spicediver 3-hr fan edit of this film (DUNE 1984).
He manages to gives us a true glimpse of the masterpiece that this movie could have been.
Forget all the other so-called “official” versions of this movie.
The Spicediver version is the absolute definitive version of this film.
He fixes so many issues with the editing of the film that it almost makes David Lynch himself to want to come back and re-embrace his estranged child (this film) and give it the proper director’s cut it deserves-along the very lines that Spicediver has laid out for Lynch.
I mean with such a cast, it’s impossible to think that this movie ever was a flop.
Spicediver will show you why it should have been a true cinematic classic!
this is better that what we have now :(
Patrick Stewart running into battle with a pug under his coat is more epic.
best scene in the movie
Who ever thought Patrick Stewart was ugly enough to play Gurney?
Correct…that’s probably the most gnarly bit of warrior’ing I’ve ever seen…
and his baliset playing!
Lynch is a genius
Can't wait to see this in the modern adaptation
Reverend Mother: You mustn't speak!
Paul: Silence!!!
Reverend Mother: Meow...
Try looking into that place you dare not look amd you will see me staring back at you. Ball tingle commencing after I hear that. This whole movie gets me jacked up.
Reminds me of that Futurama episode where the robot council kept shouting “SILENCE” even if the other person finished speaking.
SILENCE! Well, speak up!
0:30 silence!!!
"And his word shall carry death eternal to those who oppose the righteous!"
Feyd: The righteous?!
@@Megaspartan23 Try to keep up
Every part of this movie is badass.
Everything was great. Acting, effects, music... I guess its only flaw is that it is one movie tackling that enormous universe created by Frank Herbert.
and lady jessica was super hot
I describe David Lynch's 'Dune' as his greatest movie ... but, sadly, his greatest tragedy ...
That was not his doing, per-se ... he was undone by taking on a massive universe contained in the first novel alone , which, as someone above suggested, really ought have been three, 2hr, movies, instead of cramming it into just one ...
On top of that, the inevitably meddling of a studio too stupid to understand the masterpiece that Lynch was creating ... if I had it my way, he would have been given a $150 million budget (a massive amount of money for a movie in those days ... even Titanic, by David Cameron, was just shy over $100 million ... ), and simply told to get on with making it ... and have the patience to wait until he had finished it ...
There is another version, floating around, which David Lynch used a pseudonym instead of his own, which contains a different opening, and various other scenes not in the orginal. In fact, someone did splice the two together in the scene where the Third Stage Guild Navigator meets the Emperor, but could not overcome the changes in aspect ratios, which makes it a tad jarring to watch ...
Hence my dream of winning the American Powerball; buying the rights to both versions; digitally restoring both; then splice them together, using the best aspect ratio ... it will create a very long version, of possible 4-5+ hrs long, but such a heroic faliure needs to be given the full dignity it deserves ...
@@nigelft you damn rigth☺️
@@jeanmichel8919
Why thank you, and I do mean that sincerely ... 😊🤗
I was waiting for this scene in the new movie😔
I want a clip of "SILENCE!" as a ringtone.
"And his word shall carry death eternal"
“And his word will bring death eternal to those who stand against the righteous”
This makes the dune reboot sound like a highschool musical for teens on Disney channel
Anyone here after watching the new version?
I can not wait to see this scene in the new Dune movie.
No doubt it will be more accurate to the actual conversation in the book, but it must be at least as epic and powerful as this.
EPIC! I love Paul Atreides.
i dont know if this was the most epic part of the movie, i always thought the part where Paul hears a fremen use his fremen name and it accidently turned out to be a killing word, was pretty epic.
except those weapons weren't in the books...
@@bluegrassreb1 who cares, nerd
Ζήνων i care! Watched the movie, loved the movie but those sounds they make when shooting seemed idiotic. Then, watched the movie again. Then, read the first book. I didn't see any stupidity like that in the book and I relieved.
@@msinaanc It’s an adaptation. Who cares, nerd.
@@-.-.11 It's more of a watered-down bastardization, really. Not that someone who still uses "nerd" as an insult in 2021 would understand that.
The throne room scene in the new movie is just as awesome, and I love that they added Paul snapping at the reverend mother again. 🤣 “ABOMINATION”!
Can't wait to see Villeneuve's take on this one, but damn does he have a high bar to meet
Still have to wait,part 1 ends after death of Jamus
When Paul says that he can kill with a word he isn't kidding you! 🤯
the most heavy metal scene in any movie ever
I think the guy falling from space in a Camaro at the beginning of Heavy Metal (1980) beats this...but that's just me
@@quantum_immortal69 Thumbs up just for the reference.
I feel like that's a massive stretch
Try the scene from the original Conan the Barbarian film, with Rexor, Thulsa Doom and Thorgrim standing beneath the black sun/black moon standard. It's just before Thulsa Doom kills Conan's mother.
It's the spice acting up again!
It´s a technique called the Voice. In this case, the student surpassed the masters.
Aquel29 Its a technique called The Autism.
I was at something like this one time, only Paul was my uncle, the Spice was alcohol, and it was basically just an intervention
This scene was ok in the new Dune but I actually preffer this one since he mentions her Gom Jabbar and the rest
😂
That is the most epic "Silence" I've ever heard
I still love this movie. I thought the new Dune moved to slow for my taste.
Looks like The Overseer of Vault 33 has trained by Paarthunax 😂
That's Agent Cooper
Can't wait for the SILENCE in Dune Part 2
One of my all time favorite movies the casting is full of great actors many of which are gone now
That hair was hairing!
