Fun fact - at one point they were going to give these films titles other than Part 1 and Part 2. The original Dune was just going to be Dune, but Part 2 had several names under consideration. Some include Dune: Prophet and Dune: Muab’dib. However, since Paul’s transformation occurs around consuming the azure water of life taken from the juvenile sand worm, it was nearly called Dune: Blue Harvest. Coincidentally that’s the working title of the original Star Wars and to avoid confusion, they just stuck with Part 2. (Also considered: Deuxne, 2UNE, and Dune 2: Dune it Again)

Also very little real indication that he, as Kwizatch Haderach, gets access to the full racial memory, etc. I know you have to streamline things for adaptations, but in the first movie especially they could have sacrificed some of the massive sweeping landscape shots, and the scene with the "pet" for some more exposition around what the BG are and why Paul is so dangerous.

The issue with Alia killing the Baron isn't that it is a bad scene, in fact its an amazing scene in the book - really shocking and sinister. The issue is how well can you ever translate a fully aware and articulate toddler to film. Lynch's Dune tried it and it was very odd, real uncanny valley stuff. I think Villeneuve simply wanted to avoid it.

Filmmakers still use blue screens tho because green is a far more luminous color and has the negative effect of spilling a ton on the foreground when it’s lit which is not ideal.

I liked the first one, but didnt think it was great... By the time it finished, this film was quite possibly the best sci-fi film I've ever seen, I was blown away. Every bit if this film is visually incredible, the sound deaign is some of the best I've ever heard, the acting is top notch from everyone, it is just soooo good!

I really liked Christopher walken as the emperor. He was this passive, pathetic old man just holding on to power for the sake of it. I think it worked

I feel so bad for Walken, because he is a good actor and he was well cast for the role. But he did so well as an SNL host, that he can't be taken seriously anymore!

Just FYI, it was detailed exactly how one rides a worm in the books. You have to hook a scale, exposing it to the sand so the worm rotates and you ride it to the top. This also prevents the worm from submerging under the sand and allows you to guide the direction it travels.

surprisingly, the 80's version depicted that really well.

Mason discrediting Timothèe’s acting credits when he doesn’t even know his credits is hilarious.

I went out of my way to see this in IMAX, and it was absolutely worth it. The scene where Paul rides a Shai-Hulud, and I know it sounds cliche, genuinely felt like I was there. The score, the visuals, the sound design - just perfect. Probably my favourite scene of both parts.

The ending of the movie was heart-breaking. Chani coming to realise that the man she loved is gone, and all that's left is a manipulative, corrupted monster was just gut-wrenching to watch. Zendaya did such a great job.

I can confirm that the reviewers Mason mentioned are incorrect. Somehow I made it this far without seeing the first Dune. I meant to then decided to wait till just before seeing part 2. However a friend wanted to go and I just didn't have time before the day we went. I read a quick recap of the important names I needed to know but otherwise I went in almost cold. Took me a minute but it wasn't all that difficult to follow. I think it is because Denis knows how to tell a visual story. There was never a point I felt lost and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm going to watch part 1 then go back and see part 2 again and see if it makes a difference actually seeing the first one.

there is probably an in book explanation, but i dont understand why anybody lets those scheming witches hang around and doesnt go full order 66 on them.

I think walken as the emperor works fine, he is supposed to be a really weak emperor, to the point of being afraid of a single house beeing too strong at the landsraad, the atreides

Can't believe I watched Dune part 2 and didn't say it's Dunen time even once

I also saw it in D-Box but I didn't plan for it. Booked the double feature for me and my mates and didn't even see that I booked the D-Box row. I gotta say, I kept that shit on max level throughout both movies and I fucking loved it. Dune is already such a physical experience and the added impacts and shocks made the action scenes (especially that first worm riding scene) incredibly intense. The weed helped, too.

"I haven't seen anything as visually arresting since Argyll" should probably go on all the posters and physical media.

Timothy chalomet is the perfect Terry McGinnis for Batman beyond

Just got back from the theater, I’m going back tomorrow.. lmao. And probably another few times.. rarely do I watch movies multiple times on the big screen, only when they are truly spectacular do I feel that need of seeing it again and again. This was an 11/10 for me. I’m so happy you all got to feel and experience the same thing I did. The whole movie I was in awe and many scenes made my jaw drop. Can’t wait for tomorrow! 😭

Brilliant film. Technically spectacular, amazing performances. One question: What the fuck happened to thufir hawat

Okay it might have been in the appendices but the method of mounting and riding a worm is very well covered in the book.

16:15 The shift to green-screens is mostly because digital cameras tend to have twice as many photosensors for green as they do for blue (Bayer patterns) so green screen is less "noisy" and error prone than blue-screens. Green is also closer to the centre of the human perceptual range so it tends to have more balanced lighting (particularly under lighting with black-body profiles where red is overlit, blue is underlit and green is just right).

Giancarlo Esposito woulda been great as the emperor. I didn’t mind Christopher Walken tho

Star Wars is literally based on Dune.

Walken took me out of it unfortunately and my question is how do they get off the worm especially when you got lots of old people and those baskets. How do they get all them off without being brutally hurt. Jump and roll I guess lol

I doubt it will be that long honestly. From 2013-2017 Denis did 1 movie every year up until blade runner 2049, and probably took a few years to convince the studios to let him make dune as a 2 parter after blade runner lost them so much money, plus both dunes were hampered by the pandemic. Honestly, if Denis is feeling up to it, I could see it releasing in the next 2 years

Thats incorrect, Denis said he hadn't realized Walken did that until after the casting.

As someone that was also put off by Christopher Walken, after thinking about it I've begun to suspect that we're meant to not take the Emperor seriously as he's shown to be an unwitting pawn of the machinations of the Bene Gesserit sisterhood. Not sure if that's the actual motivation, but it helps me accept it more.

the detail on how to get on a sandworm is as good the film as in the book. its just visual.

Christopher Walken was perfect, that scene with him and Skarsgård together was great

He’s Duke Skywalker

Denis villeneuve : "I don't remember movies by their dialogue Movie: "I am your father"

I'm so excited to see where this series goes, I cant wait to see what Chaney does and how they portray Paul

I think James needs to understand that Walken was destined for this role since he starred in the music video for Fat Boy Slim's Weapon of Choice and the lyrics are literally about Dune.

The first time I saw it, I was like yeah this is great. The 2nd time, omg I couldn’t believe how amazing it was. Almost flawless. Definitely one of the pillars of Sci-Fi from now on.

Big book fan, and I still loved the movie. Part 1 stayed mostly true to the book, while part 2 definitely ventured off more. The changes are more intriguing to me to see how he’s going to wrap this up, since they definitely have future ramifications and he’s only doing 1 more movie. Most of the changes, other than the ending, revolved around not having the small time jump so I can understand why they were made with that in mind. Cant wait for part 3!

@@Phoenixflame87 Looking more into it, I think I get the Harkonnen reveal more in that it was Paul's que to put aside Leto's "" lead with your heart" example and use more brutal tactics to win the war like a Harkonnen would. Without the reveal, Paul may have relied on more diplomatic means and failed.

Honestly I found the last act kind of weird, becuase Paul just feels like a completely different character. Is he a different character becuase the weight of war has taken its toll on him or du(n)e to the responsibility he feels as a messiah to the Fremen? Has his quest for revenge taken him down this dark path of which there is no going back? No he's different becuase he drank some magic worm water and now he can see the future clearly and thinks this is the best path I guess. Just very hard to feel emotionally invested when essentially a totally new character just arrives 70% into the movie and he's our new protagonist.

I have now watched it an absolutely loved it. Also loved your review so double ruddy whammy

I think the problem with dialogue isn't dialogue as a tool itself but some writers using it as a crutch. It can't be the only point of interaction between the film and the audience. And thats why awful movies usually have awful dialogue. They just use dialogue to deliver exposition and shitty lore dumps. "THIS IS KATANA, SHE'S GOT MY BACK. I WOULD ADVISE NOT GETTING KILLED BY HER. HER SWORD TRAPS THE SOULS OF ITS VICTIMS" Like come on, Rebel Moon and Netlfix The Last Airbender. Stop giving the audience wikipedia articles for dialogue. It should be used in conjunction with film language to deliver ideas and emotions. Case in point: Literally any Tarantino movie but ima single out the opening scene of Inglourious Basterds for a masterful display of tension, blocking, and character in whats literally just a 10 min conversation. The push and pull between the Farmer and Hans is just pure kino. I'd take 10 minutes of that any day over Rebel Moon expousing how great a leader General Titus is every 5 minutes then never showing it.

I hope that DV does Dune messiah and has a crazy flash forward in a vision of the future that Paul has where he sees his son as the titanic worm god emperor

I think that after Dune 3 maybe it’s a good way to stop there or have a little break between movies as everything after 3 means that you’ll get a whole new cast as it all takes place much after the third film.
