    Just finished reading the second novel. Never would have guessed that Duncan Idaho had such an important part to the story. If the film series takes off, Jason Momoa can cost on this series for a long time.

      @FatalxBlade  2 роки тому +12

      Yes I'm interested in seeing where they decide to go if the movies continue doing well. Whether they stick to the canon or not. Personally I think some of this story would be better suited for HBO Max. You're right though Jason Momoa would have a significant role in a God Emperor of Dune film.

      @@kesardogra5529 It's perfectly fine to not like it after 2 or 3 since your main cast is essentially gone. And most consider 3 the end of a trilogy.
      If you're looking for a point to the saga as a whole I would say it's about the survival of the human race, and the influence of these worshipped leaders. With the through line of the saga being the Atreides bloodline.

      I have only read a few. They aren't bad, but they are drastically different from the 6 Frank Herbert wrote. They read more Young Adult and tend to over explain and are much longer than they should be. If you liked the original books for their complexity you will likely be disappointed in the Extended Universe Dune books. I'd say try one and go from there.

    I feel like I stopped caring when Paul died so like, idk I think if they decide to move from house Atredes in the 4th movie I’m going to be pissed man🤦🏻‍♂️

      @FatalxBlade  8 місяців тому

      Yes, I agree you would lose a lot of people after book 3. Probably before that even if they didn't alter anything. Book 4 and beyond does still have House Atreides. It's just later bloodlines.
      I wouldn't worry too much though there is no announcement to continue anything after the third movie which will be based on Dune Messiah.

      My series summary just hits the main plot beats. There is a lot to love with the series, but it definitely does go in a direction you're not really expecting after the first book.

    I think the movies are only gonna cover up until book 4. Book 5 and 6 feel like the author was milking the very last drop of the success of the previous books to keep the money coming; they feel like a whole new plot altogether...one he sadly never got to finish.

    It's probably good to read the first 2-3 books to get Paul's complete story. I assume that they may stop after Dune Messiah for the movies because Paul goes off into the desert to die. Good cinematic ending. I wonder if Messiah will be two movies..would make sense to flush the story out.

    • @FatalxBlade
      @FatalxBlade  8 місяців тому +2

      Yeah the plot does kind of go off the rails, but I found all Frank Herbert's books to be very enjoyable.
      You'll probably still be able to like the Dune movies because the director is only committed to a trilogy right now. Which presumably will end on Dune Messiah. If they take some liberties with the source material they could make it an ending. And that would be before most people think the story takes a really odd turn.

      @@AJ-pc5ln yes, haha seeing Jason Mamoa's Duncan interacting with the God Emperor would be something. Granted it might kill the franchise, but I think it would be entertaining.
      If they were gonna adapt the whole thing seriously I think you do two more movies for Children of Dune. Then I actually think the back 3 books could all be done as a HBO max series.

    Honestly, after "Dune: Messiah" , for me anyways, it's no longer "Dune" (even if "Children of Dune" has Paul in it).
    .
    Maybe it's because to me it seems like the guy didn't know how to end a story so he kept on changing the goal post, but Dune 3,4,5,6 sound stupid. Maybe they are the best books ever written, but, they are different story riding in the popularity of the name "Dune". Basically, although it's still hard work, it's easier to expand on existing lore, rather than starting from scratch.

    • @FatalxBlade
      @FatalxBlade  8 місяців тому

      I mean it's a fair take. I don't think Frank Herbert was trying to bank off the success of the first book though. Pretty sure he just just enjoyed doing his own thing. If he was writing them for success he would've given the people what they wanted.
