The books actually fucking suck. Seriously they become worse and worse page after page. The author clearly don't know how to write and the characters are cartoonish. The world building is literally plagiarism of other books and ideas, like Asimov empire... But done badly. It was good for its time because it has the level of depth that people were used to 60 years ago and it's a blatant allusion to the war in Vietnam and shit that happened in the middle east shortly after. That is, did you read the fighting? This is literally crazy shit for a book considered so "serious". It's really cartoonish stuff that not even the Lord of the Rings. 20000 years of progress and humanity doesn't even remember the basic strategy of the early Middle Ages... In my opinion, the author has never opened a history book, nor a physics or other science book. All sci-fi books like this go through hoops to explain the bullshit. But at least books like All Tommorrow are original, even if they have an undertone against some fascist ideologies (which is what dune is desperately trying to do). That is, Dune is a series about "you shouldn't follow charismatic leaders" that poses as a serious novel when if you read it aloud it seems like a comedy. It probably would have worked as a comedy The film then seemed much more consistent and coherent than the book.

How come you are the only reviewer on yt saying this? There should be a lot more people attacking this giant bore of a franchise. Is there a campaign to suppress dissent? There are a couple of great goodreads reviews of the novel Dune that capture my views. One makes the same point that you do about Paul being a Gary Stu - perfect in all respects. The other raises the question of how come a messiah is also a great scholar, warrior and leader. That's not what real messiahs were historically. These are different archetypes that do not converge in one human. Jesus was not a scholar or warrior, nor was Muhammad.

I grew up with and love the books, sci-fi was my jam as a kid. These movies are more miss than hit for me, there's just nothing for me to invest in.

i fell asleep 3 times watching it on hbo, its very unsatisfying and kind of depressing.

I still have yet to be able to make it through Dune 1 without falling asleep. And this is coming from the person who binged The Terror overnight while on Nyquil and edibles. At this point I've just given up and will stick to Lawrence Of Arabia if I want a desert epic with minimal dialogue. That at least has palpable emotional depth. We need a new Oscar category for "Best navel-gazing pretentious cack disguised as blockbuster", it seems. Oh and I don't care how many times Tinseltown tries to foist him upon us as THE next hot ticket, Timothee Chalamet has all the rizz of soggy disintegrating newspaper.

Thank you for your service sir. Feels so good having affirmation that I'm not alone in thinking that this movie sucks and the lead actor is the worst.

I just watched it, and although I went to the bathroom a few times and kept the movie rolling, I really do agree. It's a shame because I want to like it so much. I WANT TO LIKE IT! And you know what, there were some okay parts like when he wrangles up the sand worm and rides it. I just can't enjoy it that much. The dialogue is painfully boring. Listen, my girlfriend actually wrestled the remote from me and put something else on. I wrestled it back and forcefully put it back on. She fell asleep after that, and I kept watching. Nice visuals, but I just don't know, man. I feel like as a fan of movies like this, I should sit down and watch the whole movie alone start to finish and form a true opinion about it at that point. However, I worry that the experience of watching Dune 2 alone would be really boring and really painful. I don't know. I want to wrap up my comment by just saying, has a motherfucker in this movie never heard of a shield before? There are so many scenes in this movie where people are running around with shortswords into a big, messy battle comprised of a bunch of people fighting with nothing but shortswords. Bruh, the Spartans in the battle of Thermopylae had shields, and that was in 480 BC. These futuristic warring tribes can't figure out a shield but they can figure out so much other amazing technology? Wtf. There it is I said it.

Just seen it for the third time and seen back onto back with the first one it slowly gives away its rhythm, it's pacing. There are so many details of what informs what, one thing mirrored in another person and so on, its beautifully constructed. There is a lot of story telling under the surface. The best example how this video is missing all the points is that Rautha is not the villain he is so much like a mirror image of Paul, his function is to show how bad Paul is. Who is NOT a Messiah. People say he is. So he says he is. And nothing what Paul can do can stir him from his downfall. He can't help but giving in to being a self fulfilling prophecy. It's not a bad thing that you don't like the film but how you don't get any of the major points is baffling.

I actually watched the 80s one for the first time recently. It’s much better!

Long post incoming. 1. I like the whole concept of Dune, I like the first movie, the sequel was nice, but I can understand your criticisms. When it comes to the main protagonist Paul, I can understand why somebody would consider him a Mary Sue (Gary Sue is the male version). In the Matrix series Neo was the Messiah, but even he made some errors because he’s still human. But when it comes to Paul he got everything right the first time. The humans in the Dune Universe train themselves to the peak of human performance, but they’re still not deities. 2. As far as Dune Part 2 being boring, sometimes I like long slow science-fiction movies like Unbreakable & Blade Runner 2049 that isn’t just full on action. I like more of the story to be fleshed out. Those are 2 sci-fi movies that people consider boring. I think Stephen King’s novels get called boring because he does the same thing. 3. And when it comes to Zendaya being casted, I think the filmmakers wanted well-known actors in this movie so that they can sell more tickets. That’s probably the only reason they had Dave Bautista & Jason Momoa in this series.

It fell way flat. Very disappointing. The original movie was much better. This version lacked the hair raising end the original had.

I agree paul is a mary sue but the only reason a mary sue works is if they have some kind of anti hero transformation that contrasts their perfection. And thats exactly what happens to paul. Infact it was foreshadowed multiple times in his visions and diolog in both movies. When i watched Rey in the new starwars movies back in 2015, i was sooo excited to see her become the villain. Because she was a mary sue i felt this is naturally what would make sense for her character. When kylo Ren asks her to join the dark side i was ready to see her transformation and what an interesting character she would have been if her writing actually took ger down that path. But nope. She barely flinched and was just a one dimentional perfect mary sue for the rest of the 3 movies. Huge disappointment. But with Dune, paul does actually follow the character ark i wanted to see for Rey in starwars; he becomes the anti-hero... and im here for it. WE, are here for it. If you werent sleeping through the movies you would have caught this detail too...

​@@YourVideoEssaysSuck In the books it's elaborated on a bit more but, when he says "he sees a narrow way through", he wasn't talking about saving the fremin here, he was talking about revenge. there was one path to revenge. that's why in the beginning of the movie before Jessica drinks the water of life and becomes one mind with the sisterhood's plans, she warns paul that his father did not believe in revenge but paul responds with "well i do" it shows what actually drives his actions, and its not to "liberate" or "free" the fremin. Paul becomes conflicted though as his love grows for Chani, but after he too drinks the water of life in the end; he picks the path of revenge over Chani because it best serves his goals for revenge and subconsciously serves the Benegeserit's goals which is what the water of life awakens inside him. In the books and im sure Denis will elaborate more on this in the next film paul's actions pretty much ruin the fremin in the end. But you dont need to take my word for it, both Frank Herbert and Denis are on recording confirming paul is the Anti-Hero of the story of Dune and Herbert wanted this story to be a cautionary tale against charismatic leaders like Paul, an allegory warning against cult leaders we encounter in our own lives; Trump, Putin, Biden etc.

@@hardnewstakenharder A Mary or Gary Sue is someone who is inherently super strong and perfect at what he does without a logical explanation for how she/he becomes so good. It makes no sense how Rey can beat Kylo Ren who has been training in the Jedi arts since he was little when she never had used a lightsaber or knew about the force a week prior. Paul is the complete opposite. He is the product of hundreds of years of selective breeding to achieve the perfect warrior and on top of that, he has been trained by the very best swordfighters, mentats, and bene gesserit ever since he was little. His powers make sense in the context of his life.

Sounds about right

I hate these movies with a passion. Every single character is very annoying and the stupid "deep" rambling constantly is the nail in the coffin. The most overrated and overhyped franchise in recent film history. The visuals are spectacular, thats it. The original was better.

Not Relatable. No Emotions. No Struggle. No Failing. The Badasses just fade in the End. None. Sardukar? Harkonnen? Badasses just... ok you win. WHAT?????

The only moment I felt 100% engaged was when they were fighting a helicopter thingy. I hated nukes deus ex machina.

I agree with you but knew what I was getting into as I read the first book decades ago. I never understood the hype of the book, and from what I recall the movies follow that book pretty close. It just wasn't a story that appealed to me, but I guess other people do justifying making multiple movies on this thing. I'm giving up on trying to understand why people like this story

"Honest and objective" What a joke. He went into the film expecting to hate it and ignores several key pieces of information. The arguments that Paul is a Mary Sue or that somehow he triumphed at the end are ridiculous.

Don't understand why some ppl are making a big fuss about these movies. They are long and boring and made me feel I don't want to know anything about the books or the universe of it.

Yes. Wish I’d watched it at home so I could have taken a break a few times. The whole plot seemed dated - so in 8000 years people still believe dumb shit and people clearly manipulating them?! So much sand worm stuff that didn’t make sense. Some good visuals and audio but ultimately repetitive and no compelling plot.

I just saw it, sorry to say it was soooooo boring! Not only that, but it was also shot way too dark, some scenes I couldn't see a thing. This movie was just a cinematographer’s wet dream (beautiful shots for sure), with no substance or story...

I agree this movie was was not good.

I liked the first, this was slow in pace and boring af, 3/10 bc it has nice visuals

Yeah, I feel the same way. I can't understand why a bunch of weird and hard-to-understand things and details in the movie are considered a 'masterpiece.' It's all just bullshit (and I don't really know why all the people love it??? I really said "WHAT THE FUCK" after watching this fucking boring movie)

Sounds like u didn't pay attention warching the first film, and therefore didn't really pay attention the 2nd film ether. Paul isn't a Mary sue. He has been biologically created by the bene gesserir to fit into the proficy to become the Fremens Meassiah. Films theme is how people are easly manipulated through religion and propaganda, and how bad a Messiah is. Paul is the opposite of a Mary Sue, he literally is genetically modified and trained by the biggest most skilled warriors in the universe to become the ultimate weapon. Story is how he realizes that it's all a hoax and him struggleing with the morality of it. Film is literally telling u in your face how stupid Mary sues are, how stupid the heroes journey is and how stupid Messiah figures are. Because those tropes easly sway people are blinded to follow these leaders. U thought the films were boring because u didn't pay attention to them at all

A guy that can’t lose and is perfect at everything. Sounds like a Mary sue to me. If the movie is telling you being a messiah is bad, then why is that the reason they win in the end??? They literally win because he assumes the role of messiah and unites everyone. Stop defending trash stories with your dumb head cannon. Oh and for a guy that’s a “genetically perfect warrior”, why does he look like a scrawny little bitch?

@@YourVideoEssaysSuck Paul technically wins at the end but he also loses on both a grand scale and personally. On the grand scale he unleashes the Jihad, a holy war, on to the galaxy which kills billions on hundreds of worlds. This is referenced in both movies and is the reason he's reluctant to go south. It's the price he knows he has to pay to get his revenge on the Harkonnens and try to create a better future. On a personal level he loses his mother as a motherly figure (she is essentially possessed by the spirits of her female ancestors), his father was ofc. killed in the first movie along with Duncan and many others he knew, and he loses Chani who rejects him for becoming the messiah figure. This will all probably get explored more in Dune Messiah, and as I understand it (haven't read the books) if Dune 1 and 2 are Paul's rise, Messiah is basically his fall. In terms of genetically perfect it's less physicality and more bloodline and mentality. The Bene Gesserit were more interested in enhancing the mind and skills of their messiah because they knew that the messiah person would essentially be able to see the future once their powers fully developed. Combine that with training from some of the best money trainers money can buy and you get somebody very skilled, almost unbeatable. It's notable that he still struggles to beat Feyd even with his visions of the future, and in Part 1 can't beat either Duncan or Gurney. It's also a little different to typical Gary Stu/Mary Sues in that they are usually plucked literally from the street with no training and then are unexplainably exceptional. Paul is given pretty good reason to be exceptional, and like the comment above says his exceptionality as the messiah figure who struggles against a future mass slaughter in his name that can't be prevented is the main theme of the movie and books. I will say not liking it is fine, everybody has different tastes and I'll agree both movies are pretty slow and take their time. If there wasn't to be a third one to wrap it up I'd definitely have agreed the second wasted too much time in certain areas given there was other stuff to show.

i agree

Technically impressive, but not compelling or exciting, which is mandatory in this type of film, and I don't mean that it has action scene after action scene, but that the characters are interesting and the conflict is exciting. Ran and Kagemusha from Kurosawa are better than this one.

The three worms coming over the dune, is actually the ONLY good scene in the whole thing. Though I did kinda like them doing Geidi Prime as "Black And White World" - that coloseum was kinda cool.
