Remember that when the Reverend Mother asked him if things happen exactly as he dreamed them and Paul said no. So his dreams/visions don’t always represent reality. Part 2 goes into it further
I particularly like his interpretation (and have thought it myself since Part 1 released) that in _some_ cases the visions that don’t seem to line up with what ends up happening aren’t just “another possible future” or unclear meaning, but actually internally self fulfilling. That the visions of Jamis as Paul’s teacher were directly true, even in the way events play out in the films with Jamis dying, because he does the teaching in the visions themselves. A bit like in the Matrix when the oracle asks Neo if the vase would have fallen at all if she didn’t tell him not to worry about breaking it.
It’s been too long since I’ve read the books in full to remember if that exactly lines up with how the books describe the visions working, but it seems to fit well throughout Villeneuve’s films.
Yeah it's not really a spoiler, just not explained well in part 1. Paul sees *possible* futures. They may or may not become true.
The Reverend Mother was planning the entire thing all along. She might even be - spoiler alert - Paul's grandmother, though it's not explicitly stated. That's why Jessica wasn't sure who her parents were.
In the books Gurney (Josh Borland’s character) was a slave to House Harkonnen as a child and was liberated by House Atreides so yes he is traumatized
He's basically Koba with a little self control
So was Duncan "The Stud" Idaho.
Brolin*
Hence the scar on his face.
@@MorusRubra Duncan grew up as a stableboy on Caladan. I've never heard he lived on Giedi Prime.
Jamis was his friend, and he did indeed teach him the ways of the desert: No compassion, no mercy. If you don't cut their throat, they'll cut yours. Whatever it takes to survive. Any innocence Paul had left was stripped away in that moment and he is now fully on this new path with the Fremen. I won't go into detail as to spoil anything, but it's portrayed as the pivotal moment of Paul's journey in the book. Once he kills Jamis, his fate is basically sealed and there's no turning back, with enormous consequences for the rest of this intergalactic society.
i tried to say that in my comment but your words are flawless
It’s implied that Paul is also looking into these other futures where Jamis didn’t die and is using the knowledge from lessons taught to him.
Another bit of the story I had a time getting my head around was that Jessica was supposed to have a daughter instead of a son. Due to intense mental training, the Bene Gesserit have conscious control over every function in their body, even the autonomic functions. A Bene Gesserit can alter her internal chemistry to control the development of a fetus.
He wasn't born on accident.
She gives birth to a boy because Leto really wants a son and she's desperately in love with Leto and she basically choses his happiness over her duty. She's also not supposed to train Paul in the BG ways but she does anyway
Guys you definitely need to see more amazing movies from this Canadian Director. Its not just the Dune movies and Arrival. He also directed the modern blade runner film, and Prisoners. Both great. And Sicario. And even the rest of them that are more unknown are pretty good. He simply can't miss. Worth to see all of them.
Also don't worry to butcher his name worldwide just him and his mom pronounce it right. 😂
Arrival is my fav Villeneuve film
@@mw3king11Arrival is a masterpiece
Blade Runner 2049 was good..
@@AL-fl4jk Dennis only makes amazing films pretty much. :)
I can say only one thing about Salusa Secundus: dubstep never dies.
Jamis did EXACTLY what he said he would do in the visions, he would show the ways of the desert and he did, in the desert only the strongest survives, and the rules of amtal is death, he was paul's first fremen teacher.
RIP Jamis. But no worries. He is still his mentor.
Maybe not literally. But in his dreams/visions. :)
I was a friend of Jamis!
I have read that the Spider Creature, at the Harkonnen Planet, has the head of the Doctor's wife spliced onto it. Thats why Doctor asks Baron Harkonnen to end his wifes suffering..
Yes, Yueh wasn’t naive about the situation, he knew his wife wasn’t going to be “freed” in the “let go” sense. The freedom he was seeking for her with this betrayal was the freedom from a tortured life by being allowed to die.
"How do you become Emperor of the Universe"
Me: As Written.
A few things you need to know to understand the Duneverse. There was a war with the machines. So there are no computers. Basically it's based on European history. The emperor is the king (probably of England since they were the most powerful). The Bene Gesserit are the catholic church but women. They manipulate behind the scenes and run plans over centuries or longer. The second secrete power the navigators guild are the merchant navy. The emperor appears to be the ultimate power. But if the houses( think dukes and other royals in line for the throne of England or even kings of other countries) turn against him, he falls. The emperor can be over thrown. The church can't openly take control yet but influence the emperor and everything else. Then there's the navigators guild. If the ships don't sail it all falls apart. So who really runs things?
England wasn't ever the most powerful nation for what it's worth. That didn't happen till they became Great Britain.
The Emperor is essentially the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and the Bene Gesserit is the Machiavellian version of the Catholic church while moving pieces of the chess board from the shadows as the woman are the true players of the Dune universe while doing eugenics to create a perfect being they can control by crossing bloodlines who can bridge space time to see a future where humanity survives called the golden path. George Lucas borrows heavily from the Dune novels and can see striking parallels between The Voice/Prescience = Jedi mind trick/ The Force, Dune Sandworm = Sarlacc pit, Fremen = Tusken Raiders and Jawas, Arrakis = Tatooine, Spice Melange = Spice narcotics in seedy underbelly of the Star Wars Galaxy, etc.
I wish there was some brief explanation of that for people who didn’t read the books. The strict ban on computers and A.I. is the reason why SO MUCH of the Dune universe is the way it is. It’s a really unique idea.
Many new schools of thinking and the training of the human body and mind to it’s limits had to be created to fill the gaps that computers and other advanced technology used to fill.
It’s why the spice is so ridiculously valuable.
Spice is essential for interstellar travel because super computers were used to make the incredibly complex calculations needed to travel between the stars before it was banned. This gap was filled by spice, which expands the mind and eventually unlocks prescient abilities, giving one access to which route will safely get the starship to it’s destination.
A ton of cool background lore was left out. Kinda disappointing.
Its based on the Holy Roman Empire. Neither England nor the UK has ever had an Emperor. The Landsraad is an almost exact analogue for the HRE imperial system.
Biggest influence for Star Wars was Dune. George Lucas pulled a Tarantino, and basically took an amazing story and threw his own twist on it to make it "new."
Star Wars is an amalgamation of a lot stuff George Lucas read and saw at a younger age. Foundation, Dune, Seven Samurai, A Princess of Mars, King Arthur.... so on.
Star Wars is more than different enough to not be a copy, but the inspirations are clear. But Star Wars pulls more from westerns and Samurai films for example.
And made it really bad and only for kids* fixed it for ya
Regarding the stillsuits, in the book the suits not only recycle water from your sweat, it also recycles water from your urine and feces. The tubes that plug into your nose is to capture the moisture from your breath when you breath out of your nose.
We already have some water recapture technology used on spacecraft. It works, but no where near as efficient as Fremen tech.
And it's all RECYCLED. It is clean water. Why does everyone miss this detail?
They probably made the smart decision that it wasn't too "sci-fi" to drink pee-poo juice
Paul can see glimpses of possible futures in his dreams. What he saw with Jamis (dude that died in the end) was a possibility. Even though Paul can't see exactly what's going to happen, this ability is extremelly useful. He can still learn from Jamis and even himself in future visions.
Since Arrakis barely has water. All kind of bodily moisture is sacred and should not be wasted.
So spitting is a sign of respect/gift.
The Dune world is much much bigger than what you think and this first film is kind of slow paced so we learn everything about the world. But it really gets better.
Frank Herbert has inspired so many (including Star-wars) and much more in Sci-Fi. Dune is much more than just a movie, it's a warning sign about religious motives and leaders.
Zendaya/Chani said he choose the hardest way up. He took a path Jamie was in front of. He humiliated Jamie by beating him and taking his pistol on his way up to protect his mother. If he had choose "right" and took the easiest way up to this montain, he would have only "met" Jamie on their journey to the siech and they would have become friends. Either way, Jamie teach Paul the way of the desert which is kill or be killed. And Paul can see multiple future, so Jamie can "talk" to him and teach him, even in death.
Wonderful insight, and yet you get his name wrong.
@@arong4906 English isn't my first language and subtitles are sometime funny on UA-cam. So you have to forgive me on that and some more. If I am not mistaken it's from the book. I remember a passage about Paul's grief about having to kill Jamis* and the knowledge it could have been different if he had chose another path, literally and metaphorically.
The next one is probably the best movie I've ever seen.
Agreed.
Don’t worry this guy will surely talk over the entire movie missing 3/4’s of the plot
20:51 - You'll see the Emperor in Part 2...and he won't have a cowbell.

Cody: "I don't think it belongs to either of us...i think we're just guests here" *The god emperor of dune appreciates and will remember this* 😂
His visions are of possible futures, not necessarily exactly what will happen. And the line about when you take a life you take your own, its not literal its more like you kill the person you were before (innocent and naive) and become a new person, having lived through that experience. etc
Shields attract worms because it pulses extremely quickly and worms are drawn to rhythmic noises so they respond extra aggressively to an incredibly fast rhythm
The worm wasnt talking to paul, paul was actually talking to the worm. When he says "i recognise your footsteps old man" hes not actually talking to gurney, hes in a vision and isnt aware that gurney is behind him. Shai Hulud literally translates to old man of the desert
"Those look like hairs not teeth" wait until cody fings out about whale baleen 😭
The nose tube on the still suit is to collect moisture from the body not to provide oxygen.😄
Now this is great monday surprise!
Dunes are masterpieces.
The shields didn’t help them against the attack because they were deactivated by the doctor as part of his betrayal of Atreides working for the Harkonens. Since they didn’t expect any aerial attack could penetrate the shields (which was true), they were completely unprepared for an attack without the shield to save them.
Enjoyed your reaction as always!
The ship shields (on the ground) weren’t deactivated, but they still weren’t “useless” in context. For one, they make it impossible to use lasers in the initial attack, but also would have stopped any weapons that didn’t go very slow on reaching the shield. That limits what types of weapons could be used to likely much more expensive/limited availability weapons and also to ones that have to go much slower giving (in theory) more time to shoot them down.
Normally that would help substantially if they had the city shields working to buy them time to respond, and the communications that would’ve let them immediately alert everyone and send them to fight. Of course in this case it didn’t accomplish much in the moment because they were so completely caught off guard with none of the warning they would expect to have had if the doctor hadn’t sabotaged their systems, though it probably did drive up the difficulty and cost of preparing for the attack.
They don’t go directly state it in the movie but the assault cost the Harkonnen an absolutely immense amount of both money reserves and political capital. They do imply it a bit, when Baron says to immediately start selling their spice reserves after the attack. Of course it doesn’t matter much to the Atreides how much it cost their enemy once they’ve already lost, but it does act as a deterrent making any attack less likely and slower to be ready (had the Emperor not directly aided the Harkonen invasion.
5:32 “How do you become Emperor of the Universe, by the way?”
Simple. You control Arrakis, you control the Spice.
He who controls the Spice, controls the universe.
First words of the second movie - "Power over Spice, is Power over all"
While it was absolutely emphasized just how important Spice is, it could perhaps have been emphasized even more.
"We might watch Dune 2 with subtitles"
Why are you not watching EVERYTHING with subtitles?
;-)
I feel like if you do a reaction, you have to because quite often I see reactors talk over key moments because obviously they don't know that it's coming.
@@joits Yeah, great point :)
His visions are only paths that his life can lead. He controls where they go.
When he talked to the reverend mother she asked if all his visions come true and he said, “not exactly.”
This will change in the second movie.
You NEED to see the 1984 movie directed by David Lynch...just for camp purposes.
The directors name is Denis Villeneuve (pronounced de-knee veal-noov) and he's done a marvelous job of adapting an almost unadaptable movie.
Shields are vibrational in nature, and as the worms track things through vibrations the high-frequency vibration of shields on sand drive them insane. Walking without rhythm is key to making your way across the sands without drawing a worm - unless you hit drum sand in which case you need to hoof it.
I loved this version of Dune. I'm excited for the 2nd one. I wanna answer some of your questions but worry that might spoil some things that might be said outright in the next one. Cuz some of what you had questions about were answered in roundabout ways in conversations & actions, but they will probably explain some things out better in the 2nd.
The thing about forcefields in Dune is although they are really advanced they’ve also existed for thousands of years, so in that time warfare has also advanced to account for forcefields. A good example of how forcefields can be beneficial is that no one uses guns because bullets are too fast to get through the shields.
P.s. The Kriss knives are a real thing, but they have a very different and distinct shape. It's dagger with a blade that is wavey, idk how to explain. High af. The reason that woman starts screaming "aaahhhww" the moment Jessica says "maker" is because she thinks Jessica means the worm, which the Fremen call the Maker aka Shai Halud. But if you notice Jessica wasn't done talking, she says "It's a maker o---". What she meant to say is "It's a maker of death" But the moment the Fremen woman hears "maker" she thinks Jessica means the worm (the blade is made from the tooth of a worm). Which convinces her that Jessica and Paul are the ones from the prophecy. When the woman starts screaming it interrupts Jessica. If Jessica had said the wrong thing the woman would have tried to kill her, it's why she signalled the guards.
God... I couldn't watch a movie with this dude talking eeeevery sentence with something "funny". Please, enjoy what you are watching, give good insights but stop talking nonsense.
I think subtitles are good for all reactions even if it's to something in English
I thought the movie did a bad job at explaining what the Spice does. But, I don't think the writer/director thought it very important to his movie version of Dune. And that is okay. The Spice is the most valuable item in the universe. The Spice can extend a human's lifespan (for the uber rich). It is used by the Guild Navigators to guide ships traveling (warping) between star systems. The Sisterhood uses it in their process to change one of their order into a Reverend Mother, those who have access to memories of all their female ancestors. The Spice can only be found on the one planet as it is tied to the Worms. The Worms cannot survive on other planets.
The worm part in the end is a spoiler for those who did read the books or watch the sci-fi channel shows back in the day!
I'm from 50 years in the future, when the thing everybody remembers most about this movie is Cody saying, "Wormin' my way downtown."
My favorite scene in both movies. Is when he stares down the reverend mother hand in the box. “Kwizats Haderach is a power to strong to control”. You can see it in her face when the music drops. Best foreshadow in film history
The audiobook is Great for a Road Trip . It is 20+ hours and can be found with supplemental info included. There is also a Dune Wiki online .
The franchise certainly died in Aquaman 2.
I wish the movie explained it a bit more. I watched the movie, then read the comic, than the books. It's very easy to explain, Paul can see possible futures, so he saw himself learning everything with his friend in a possible future, and then ended up having to kill him. That's why you thought he'd be his friend. Because he was, in another path.
My country-man, Stellan Skarsgård, (Alexanders and Bills father) had to wear a fat suit for this movie.
Oscar Isac said, that when he was naked, on the chair; and Stellan came close.... he scared the S-it out of him. The tear is real! 😆
😅😂
The "main Harkonnen" (Stellan), was always creaping up on people, scaring them at set. 😂
Ps: Rebecca Fergusson, Paul's mother, is ALSO a Swedish/Skandinavian fellow country man/lady.
She played "The White Queen"... if you recognized her.
46:18 The vision says "Paul Atreides must die, for the Kwisaz Haderach to rise." What that means is that the "boy" that is Paul through this movie must die, so that he can become the fremen he needs to be.
Fun fact for those who are not gonna watch Fallout😛, main girl's father first role ever was same as Timothée's just 40 years ago.😂 Also just remembered Jackie from Yellowjackets is in it, she is main girl. Hope they catch this comment. 😉
As written
Hah! I KNEW I remembered him from something sci-fi, but could not place it! I was one of the relatively few that had a soft spot for the insanity that was Lynch’s Dune (hell, he tries to disown it himself) and now when I watch the rest of Fallout I won’t be able to unsee the overseer’s past life and wonder when Sting will show up!
@@RocketSurgn_ Age hit him different. 😂
@@marcosbobvery recognizable now that I know it, it’s just been so long since and he was so young then!
Thank u. I'm not a gamer so I had no plans on watchin it
Since you haven't read the book, you wouldn't know. But in the fight scene with the fremen where it seemed to you (and to the fremen) that Paul was toying with him, he wasn't. It was a remnant of his training where you fight with shields. Shields will deflect a hard blow but a slow moving blade is allowed through. So they trained to swing hard but go slowly in the last inch.
Stoked for u to see the 2nd one, SO damn good, I can’t wait for the 3rd!!!!
There is another fact about the shield technology in the Dune universe that makes the inability to use shields in the desert convenient. If a lasgun (the beams shown a few times) impacts an active shield, the reaction is not unlike a nuclear explosion.
Put simply, Paul sees a bunch of *possible* futures in his visions. Almost like the multiverse - branching paths based on a million little choices. So in *one* of those possible futures, Jamis became his close friend and taught him the ways of the desert. Sadly, that's not the future that Paul actually gets to live in. So all he'll ever have are his visions of a deep friendship that can never exist.
"Theres something about worms... and drugs..."
Frank Herbert is turning in his grave right now Cody... what a way to sum one sci-fi literature most cherished masterpieces 🤣🤣🤣
1:00 Dune influenced some lesser know small franchises,
some a few nerds might know, Star Wars, I think it's called, and Game of Thrones. No big deal.
Part 2 is amazing as well.
On Jamis - the visions says that Jamis will "teach (Paul) the way of the desert", and the desert is brutal and unforgiving. The vision showing Paul dying is a metaphor of sorts. It will be explained more in Part 2, but as simple and spoiler free as possible you could say that by taking a life, Paul has killed his own innocence and it (inevitably) changes him completely as a person.
Loved your reaction, but yeah, subtitles might be a good idea for part 2 - personally, I find it easier to keep up with everything if I have subtitles on (although that could be at least in part due to English being my second language, and being from a country that doesn't voice dub anything aimed at an audience older than 9). The films are pretty story dense.
Also! Did you recognize the Baron? :D You have absolutely seen him before - he has a part in the MCU, and he has also been in Pirates of the Caribbean. ;)
WHOOOO!!! I can't wait for part 2. Loved the vid!
I saw the tweet asking if you should go in blind and I'm glad you guys enjoyed it. But yeah, this first film is only about half of the first book lol. When this came out in 2021, I was a huge fan of Timothée Chalamet so I went in blind too because I only wanted to see him and another Denis Villeneuve film but went and read all of the Frank Herbert Dune books. I saw this like 6 times in theaters. Since this was a simultaneous drop, it probably didn't do the numbers they hoped for it to make but it did decently for a Covid-era movie.
Paul's visions are of possible futures. What's the point of visions if u can't change anything. they become redundant otherwise.
There are many fantasy stories that include various levels of prescience. The more accurate the visions, the less freedom is enjoyed by the seer. That's the trap of precognition.
The Fremen recycle their bodily fluids and don’t waste water. They don’t even cry. So to waste fluids by spitting is a sign of respect among the Freman.
This is actually my favorite of the two - which is not the popular opinion but it’s really - to me - the more truthful of the two so far by Den V.
What I mean is part one feels very relatable- the relationships feel heartfelt and real - very natural in the character portrayal and their motivations are believable
In part 2 - it feels like these characters are characters. It seems more campy
----
Also I LOVE that you have snarky reactions all through this
Please don’t ever change
I’ll admit the first few minutes the snark was a bit much for me personally, but they were settling into a movie not knowing the tone and all- Overall it was a great balanced amount of snark, haha.
7:38, yes Duke Leto is Oscar Isaac who played MoonKnight in the MCU and Poe Dameron in the Star Wars franchise. When Dune was first released, Denis Villeneuve publicly mentioned his disdain for superhero movies particularly the MCU. I just find it ironic that his cast is chock full of people who have been the primary or supporting characters in MCU and DCEU movies.
Can you imagine watching Dune for the first time and having this guy sitting next to you making stupid comments every 5 minutes?
rage. unlimited rage and a strong backhand
Paul’s parents never married, though they were genuinely in love Jessica remained his Concubine for political reasons. It left open the possibility of a political marriage, to be able to cement an important alliance with another of the great houses if there was ever an opportunity. It’s the sort of thing nobles would do, even if they never intended to go through with another marriage, because at least outwardly keeping it as a possibility leaves options in negotiating.
49:26 I'm not a dune expert but the Visions are possible futures. All The visions Paul has been seeing throughout the movie or at least most of it can't become true because before fighting with Jamis, he saw himself fighting Jamis and dying . So, it's an impossible future and that's why he had to kill Jamis.
.
Correct me if I'm wrong Book readers.
Paul was seeing his possible futures. Which was why he saw himself get stabbed. Being trained by Jamis etc etc. when the reverend mother asked him if his dreams became true he answered no. Not always. As he’s seeing not what will happen but what might happen
Thankyou for the membership ❤
The movie was reserved about the stilsuits. In the book they explain they recycle ALL moisture excreted from the body into drinking water.
The Fremen woman who gives Lady Jessica the Crysknife before the wailing, is no other than Golda Rosheuvel who's Queen Charlotte in Bridgerton and the Queen Charlotte spinoff on Netflix
Paul's visions are not visions of the future. They're visions of POSSIBLE futures. That's why he sees Chani stabbing him and Jamis philosophizing with him.
Y’all should definitely consider reading the first book, it’s amazing. And these movies really did the book justice, BUT they kind of rush through some things, especially in part 2 and they aren’t given the attention or adds weight to certain things happening. The book will be able to help to understand things you may be confused about.
I was afraid I’d get way more “WTFs” out of Cody during this reaction, I was certain y’all would like it as long as you gave it a chance ☺️
Paul’s described as having a dancers body, so yes strong but lean. So, cut but make it Timothée Chalamet.
Everyone who is a part of House Atreides by choice loves the Duke & his family as much as they loathe the Harkonnens, (which is at least as much as Gurney hates them-yes, they were all traumatized by the Harkonnens in one way or another, and based on the screams you can sometimes hear in the background of Harkonnen scenes you can use your imagination.)
Duncan escaped the Harkonnen homeworld as a child after they killed his sister, for instance.
The visions are possibilities, I always roll my eyes a little when they have the “the one” conversation, but I get most people need that shorthand. By bridging “time & space” he can see future potentialities. So there is a timeline where he is killed by Zendaya, a timeline where he is killed by Jamais, a future where he is fighting in the Jihad, a future where Duncan dies in that hallway…🤔 That one came true tho, didn’t it? To understand who Paul is we must at least question why he chose to go down one path and not another.
Anyway, yes Bene Gesserit sisters can decide the sex of their children because they have so much control over their bodies a fully trained sister can stop her own heart if need be. So why dod the Lady Jessica choose to have a son? It’s touch on in the film but more fully addressed in the book: The Duke wanted a son and The Lady wanted to give him what he wanted, because love.
The Lady & The Duke are not married because she is not nobility, they love one another and so you don’t see an actual wife anywhere but Jessica can only be his concubine-Or they could’ve married and said to hell with tradition 🤷🏻♀️.
They also do not do a great job at indicating where “worm territory” begins and ends, literally every reacter has made comment about how they should be sand-walking after they land the ornithopter.
I would have liked to have seen more sand-walking, I remember friends who were also into Dune complained about that after the film came out. Pretty much the only thing any of us complained about.
BTW, in Dune there is no magic and there are no aliens-If you can do massive amounts of math in your head it’s because you’ve been trained to do that; if you can check someone’s vitals with your fingertips, it’s because you’ve been trained to do that. The bulls are not only symbolic of Paul’s grandfather’s death but a foreshadowing of Leto’s end as well, and also a symbol of their house’s Mediterranean lineage, (Atreides, pronounced like Pleiades.)
Lineage is important-Bene Gesserit’s work has been focused entirely upon their eugenics program, specifically directing the specific individuals to breed with others until that line produces “the one,” (as the Reverend Mother points out tho, it’s not “the one,” but the one right now, the one closest to producing their desired result.)
this was a great start to my day, need you guys to react to part 2 immediately! :)
Oh! That Duncan Idaho jump I remember noticing that he turns on something on his back before he jumped. Realized that must have been a suspensor belt. The same tech that allows the lamps and Baron Harkonnen to float. And those Sardaukar troops to slowly descent from the sky. It's wild, such small details are everywhere in the movie, but blink and you miss it and since it's never explained it might be confusing. In the books they don't use suspensor tech like this in combat, but it's a really cool adition and suspensor tech is a very common technology in the world (in book).
There is a lot of unexplained stuff. Like that hunter seeker, why doesn't it just take Paul out? Because it works on motion. That's why Paul stands still. They shouldn't have made it move so close to Paul for no reason. In the book Mapes opens to door and then it shoots towards her, Paul who's near the door catches it before it takes her life. In the Dune world they do not have computers, silicon chips etc. Those are illegal because in the past AI ruled humanity and then an anti AI war called the Butlerian Jihad started which wiped out all thinking machines and ever since then they do not use such technolgy. That's why they need mentats, space guild, the BG etc
12:02, the Bene Gesserit look at most human beings as little more than animals to be controlled. So the Reverend Mother calling Paul "a young human" is a compliment.
BTW, the Reverend Mother is actually Jessica's biological mom and therefore Paul's grandmother. The Dune universe is an odd one. My grandmother made cakes and cookies. Paul's grandma inflicts painful psych tests. 🤣
Jessica's maternal lineage was brought up in later Dune books that act as prequels to the first book. I'm not sure if Jessica was ever made aware of their familial connection. Some fans don't consider this canon I do.
Congrats on the 100k subs! 🎉
So yeah part 1 is a lot of table-setting but part 2 cracks off. As good as I think this movie is, part 2 is like 300% better. Legendary announced that Dune part 3 is in development, Denis is currently writing the script. He has two other films that he's making, I think one that he's co-directing with Christopher Nolan (about sentient, alien cows), so who knows--my guess is they won't go into production until 2026 or 2027, if the script pans out. The guy doesn't miss.
Paul’s visions show him possible futures but not necessarily the real future. That’s why he saw Zendaya and Janis killing him and Janis being his friend
They keep it in the water because the Atreides rule by power in the air and sea. So I guess in the movie their ships function as ships on land and sea, and underwater as a submarine. The giant thing in space has a hole in it, because it's basically a teleporter. The space guild folds space for the families to travel from one planet to another, to do trade etc. They are the most powreful faction in the universe at the start of the book and are vital to the story. Unfortunately we barely ever hear from them in the first or second movie.
You guys are the best. You figured out how Paul's visions work. He sees possible futures. At the moment...... Great reaction all around. Dune has many layers. You understood that and took it all in. Again. Is rare among reactors to this movie. Can't wait to see you react to Part 2. Thanks again for the most enjoyable video I have seen on the subject.
Great reaction with funny insightful commentary while actually paying attention the whole time!? Reactions can be disappointing if there’s too much focus on making too many jokes at the cost of missing stuff- which is not what was happening here! Loved the video guys, excited for Part 2!
(In reference to them NOT joking too much and missing stuff)
Oh thank freaking god my dude because I gotta say that I’m like 10 mins into this reaction video and I was getting quite frustrated.
Cause I mean like I was seriously considering if I should just stop watching at this point, which is why I’m in the comments looking for the tell tale signs of the fact that the near constant jokes come off as them just not taking anything seriously and therefore likely missing stuff as they are too busy taking jabs at the movie was what I had to look forward to if I was to continue watching.
Cause like don’t get it twisted my dudes…I’m all for jokes and a few jabs, but when it’s a movie like Dune, that is overall a quite serious and kinda banks on the audience’s attention span being a hell of a lot more than a big dumb action movie would require, and it also uses dramatic music and immense scale to sorta immerse you in the world/universe of Dune to give you the sense of awe while watching……too many jokes and jabs just basically nullifies all of those things that the movie depends on! Imo 🤦♀️😉🤷♀️😬
So I’m super stoked to see that there isn’t a lot of comments about how they are in fact…not paying attention &/or joking too much, tho I’m slightly worried that yours is the only one that tells me they aren’t and I was also worried a bit cause almost every comment is (seemingly)packed with people correcting them on things they got wrong.
Now yes, it’s typical to see tons of explanations in the comments but it’s normally more about trivia or expanding on lore etc… but these comments sound more like corrections of things they totally missed or misunderstood.
But whatever…your comment gives me hope at least😅👍😉
@@sandrakiefler4649 the comment you replied to is definitely sarcasm lol. Dude yaps the whole movie making cringe jokes every 5 seconds, I'm pretty sure they're deleting all the top level comments criticizing him
The cinema experience of this movie was insane. The soundtrack and the cinematography are magical.
100K Subs, congratulations. About time
no subtitles
music production fact: The sound of the bagpipe is a guitar. The chorus of bagpipes are bagpipes.
6:04 "Jason Mamoa :3"
The visions aren't an absolute. If you know the future. You can change the outcome.
Haha don't worry about the visions it gets a little more clarified in the 2nd movie. I think it would be better explained to you once you have the context of the 2nd movie and if you still don't get it I'm sure people are willing to explain!
2:00 Well that would be Tuvan Throat singing.
70% stupid comments from the bald guy. 30% main dialogue
edit: make it 80/20
Bridgettes LAUGH IS ICONIC😂
the reverend mother isn’t Lady Jessica’s actual mother. she’s a leader in the bene gesserit.
The original Dune movie was great. You should check it out!!!
The hairs/teeth of the worms work like with whales, filtering the sand.
Second film will bring this all together and Im sure youll love it.
Incredible Epic
It’s kind of Game of Thrones in Space
Dune 2 reaction now, lets go!! Great reaction
Hope you guys will do part 2 soon. I loved this movie, but all the setup and world building really pays off in the second movie.
Reverend Mother is a title denoting a status/rank within the Bene Jesseret for those who have survived the spice agony ritual...think Cardinal in the Catholic Church. He wasn't calling her Jessica's actual mother. (iykyk)
23:38, the sand worms like all of that metal helps them grow up to be big and strong. LOL.
Yeah, I would say watching with subtitles is a good idea. I'm a huge fan of the books and even I watch with subs. It really helps with the visions and the Voice.
Denis Villeneuve is genuinely a master
If you haven't seen most of his works, please do your eyes and ears and brain a favor and watch more of his stuff:
Sicario
Enemy (this one will confuse you, just let it)
Blade Runner 2049 (watch the original Blade Runner first to understand the world)
Prisoners
YES LFG. The world & story building in Part 1 sets the tone and intensity for Part 2.
Lol yes the Exorcist (or Scary Movie 2 😂) reference is on point with the voice.
I was a friend of Jamis.
Aww man I almost forgot how many signs the first movie throws at you that Chani will become an anti Paul character in the second movie. Kinda really dislike what they did to Chani. Also.. why the FFFF is Lady Jessica constantly crying and getting emotional. She's a BG. I get it, they want to show her internal struggle but it diminishes the power of a BG, they don't lose control over their emotions. The only time Lady Jessica cries is when she mourns Leto in the tent
forgot how funny you guys are. I'm trying to stifle laughter late at night, well done ; ).
“Is that the worm talking to him?” 😅
"He" came out because they ran onto rocks and "he" can't burrow through rocks
