The thing I love about this iteration of DUNE is its feeling of timelessness. It feels futuristic, yet ancient. It takes place on distant planets but echoes Earthly history like the brutal Spanish colonization of the Americas, the romantic city of Petra, exotic riches of the Silk Road. It feels like a fully realized world. As hardcore as the Fremen are, I like that we sometimes see their lighter side too... Stilgar being the embodiment of that when his humorous nature shines through.

Also, Paul legitimately didnt want that end, but having his hand forced into going South left few options other than assuming the mantle. Though his prescience is faulty before the Water of Life, he knows that the realization of his "birthright" will fundamentally change him and the universe, which is why he was dead set on staying in the North for as long as he could. There's also the realization that if Paul can see multiple futures and the one he picks still ends in immense, widespread suffering, can you imagine the outcome in other timelines? This is the true burden Paul takes on when he drinks the water. Its the trolley problem on a galactic scale; do you cause immense suffering for a large but not total group of people, or do you let the universe as a whole descend into chaos where everything burns to ashes?

Problem is that Paul could have averted it earlier, but he was too driven by revenge to do so. He even saw fairly early on where it all was headed, but deluded himself into thinking he could change it. This really is what makes Paul such a great tragic villain; you can fully understand why he takes the actions he does, even though they, in combination with some factors that are beyond his control, lead to unspeakable horror.

@@chadphelps5809: Have you read the book? The first occasion where it's explicitly mentioned that he could have gone and done something else was in the tent after the Harkonnen attack, which is quite different in the book than in the film. Already then he's aware of what the different paths ahead will bring, and yet he deliberately chooses that one because he desperately wants to believe that he can change the outcome (the jihad, the "holy war") while simultaneously getting the revenge he seeks and avoiding other things about the alternate paths he doesn't like; but he's fully aware that that those paths would be very unlikely to lead to the horror he ends up causing. And then even after that there's another occasion after he's killed Jamis when he thinks to himself that to prevent his own legend from rising whether he lives or dies, he'd have to kill everyone present in that moment, including himself. Of course an extremely hard choice to make, but if we want to go the way of the "trolley problem" as described by the comment I replied to, you'd have to consider how sacrificing yourself and a handful of people to prevent billions and billions of horrible deaths could very much be a much better outcome overall. But like I said, it's very understandable why he does what he does at every step along the way, including due to circumstances that are far beyond his control; it's really the archetypal tragic villain story, to a tee.

Sandworms grow to enormous size (specimens longer than 400 meters have been seen in the deep desert) and live to great age unless slain by one of their fellows or drowned in water, which is poisonous to them.

Fact : atomic bombs are forbidden to use directly on humans or destroying a planet in the Dune Universe, that's a agreement between great houses. If one house desobeys, all the other houses would attack this house. Why ? because past experiences, horrible ones, occured in the hystory of Dune universe, that's in the books....Earth was destroyed by atomics before the Butlerian Jihad against the machines, also Salusa Secondus home of the Sardaukars

Paul's visions are metaphorical right until he drinks the Water of Life. At that point his Bene Geserit skills and collective memories, Mentat logic and the Water elevate his visions to being true prophecy. If one knows the correct answer to every question does one have free will? The Holy War and the brutality that arises after is the least worst choice, a desperate attempt to head off an even more horrific future. And even knowing that, eventually Paul proves to be a coward and turns away from the Golden Path, dooming his own son to a living hell that he refused. And Duncan... poor Duncan. The suffering of Duncan Idaho is nearly eternal. There is a critical quote from the books that I think adds essential context to the relationship between Paul, Chani and Irulan.

A lot of people fail to glean that, this is a truly supernatural universe, and that by drinking the life water Paul has Gained "Perfect Prescience", he literally sees all futures at once with perfect clarity. This isn't him succumbing to the prophecy, this is him ignoring what he can't control, which is a holy war in his name that has already begun, this is him taking the reigns and steering it in a direction that will protect Chani, Jessica, his Sister, and give justice to the Fremen, all while minimizing casualties. Every outcome where he doesn't intervene is worse.

We're talking about a choice made by Leto II, who was a sociopath, and no one else. An entire galaxy filled with humans, and one person decides what happens? In essence, the series says that humanity didn't take one step forward in human development since the days of Gilgamesh.

So, "technically" speaking, in the Fremen culture the Mahdi is the messiah that will lead them to paradise, while the Lisan al-Gaib is "The Voice from the Outer World", that is a foreign figure that will come to Arrakis and become their Mahdi. So, those two words are a reference to slightly different concepts and roles but according to the prophecy the Fremen were exposed to, they will end up pointing to the same person. The exposure of the Fremen to the prophecy was the work of the Bene Gesserit that over the centuries spread some kind of variation of that prophecy to basically every "primitive" world whose population they had a chance to indoctrinate. The purpose was to prepare the local cultures to accept Bene Gesserit agents and manipulation.

He is following the path of survival. I dont get why people see him as evil. The holy war would happen anyway, he chose the way for it to happen that benefits the fremen. He saw the future, he knows what hes doing. Chani never even believed Paul had visions. But she also didnt want the bombs power. I dont know what she was expecting. Remember Paul said "She'll understand. I've seen it."

Dune as a story is more about power and about how power isn't free. If you don't do what is necessary to keep and maintain power then you die, your family dies, and even worse someone else has power to abuse it. If Paul isn't in power then Feyd-Rautha would have power and you'd have the entirety of the fremen wiped out in the Harkonnen genocide, or you'd have them turned into a Harkonnen military force like the emperors sardaukar guard. Or you'd have Feyd-Rautha controlled by the bene gesserit witches using lust and humiliation like they said earlier in the movie. In the universe of Dune at least, with the lessons the books choose to support, the Emperor wasn't wrong when he spoke to Paul at the end. Paul's father died and failed because he was too weak to rule. Paul is trying to walk the line and not make the same mistakes his father made and tow the very narrow path as well that he's foreseen.

In the book Paul has water caches planted over every pre-spice mass on Arrakis, and releasing them would destroy the life cycle of the worms and disrupt the entire ecosystem of the planet. Spice production would end forever and the universe would die in isolation and darkness. It's a much more credible threat than 'nuke the spice fields' but requires a bit of not ignoring the book to set up.

Second, populations and civilizations would crumble without space travel delivering food from food-rich worlds to worlds that produce other commodities, true...but it wouldn't result in the extinction of humanity. They'd go back to pre-space travel populations, unable to ever contact each other again...so they'd be like our technology level now, just without computers, and if there was no one to enforce the "no computers" law without space travel, then I'm sure people would eventually go back to using them.

hey hey. i'm just doing my nightly dune 2 reactions and your super cool intro made me comment! nice stuff, love it

Sorry to break it to you, but it's going to be _some time_ before the next film in the Dune series. Which gives you plenty of time to have another go at reading the book! I'll keep saying it to anyone and everyone who enjoyed these films because of the political intrigue, the religious prophecy, or the lore of Arrakis - there's a lot more where that came from, the book. The first part was a struggle for me the first time, and I gave up on it too. Granted I was like 12 at the time, but I got a good few books under my belt over the next year or two before I tackled it again, and I got through it that time. It's really just the first part before the invasion that's the toughest, it gets easier after the actions kicks in. That said, you've watched the films now, so you should find the book a lot easier. Highly recommended, but obviously stop after you finish the first book, since the next film is about Dune Messiah, and I'm assuming you wouldn't want to spoil your reaction to that film. In any case, I'm sure you'd find the ending much more satisfying.

Ok ! you want answers, not waiting for the newt movie : so read the books ''messiah of Dune'', ''Children of Dune'' and you will have the important answers, BUT the Dune Saga is far rom over with these 3 books... OR watch the TV mini serie Dune 2000, and the sequel 2003 Children of Dune (4h30) which incorporated the Messiah of Dune, these TV movies are very close to book story, so important to watch thirst the Dune 2000 TV miniserie (4h30)

Frank Herbert took the plot from “Lawrence of Arabia,” worked in a lot of philosophy and comparative religion from Campbell and Toynbee, and produced “Star Wars” for literate adults. In this universe, civilizations are built on myths that are all inevitable and false, all eventually fall because of human weakness, absolute power corrupts absolutely, and history repeats itself in cycles of birth and destruction. Grim stuff. And speaking of religion, I’ve seen a number of Muslim channels that are thrilled by this film. Little do they know …

I will let you know that you are not stupid. Most people don’t realize that that’s Jamis’s body at the start even though they had it at the end of the last movie

They change Chani so much in this, but other than that, it's great.

Dune is a HUGE universe in the books, comparable to Lord of the rings (From Tolkien) or Foundation (from Isaac Asimov), they are masterpieces in SF literrature. So they are very complex books. The two movies are only the first book of the orignal 6 books from Frank Herbert (written 1963 to 1985), and expanded by his son Brian Herbet (and Kevin J. Anderson) with 16 more books. These movies can be appreciated without reading the books, but you miss A LOT of background facts. Also there are some details in the movies different from the books.

Brian is just a fanfic writer who basically made it a cash cow. It’s just he is his son. Still a fanfic level and VERY bad writing without any inspiration on the level of Frank Herbert. So let’s not mention it on the level of them. Who did that is Steven Erikson by the Malazan Book of the Fallen. That book series actually is on the level of Tolkien himself especially together with Ian the co-writer to that world. Now those books are masterpieces of literature and advanced fantasy, breaking tropes, bringing up themes and ideas to question at least on the level of dune/asimov.

Oh, very good. Great reaction. Maybe this will be interesting - Constantine (2005), Hellboy

The Bene Gesserit order ! nothing religious in this order.....watch soon the TV serie ''Dune: the prophecy'' about the origin of this order, adaptation of the book ''Sisterhood of Dune'' 2015 from Brian Herbert, the son of Franck Herbert, and Kevin J. Anderson (very good Star wars writer). We will know more about these Bene Gesserit plans.

24:44 To be fair the Atreides family like most of the Great Houses in the Landsraad have tremendous weapons of mass destruction in their possession. But 92 atomic warheads is nothing compared to what exists in the real world. The United States and Russia have thousands of warheads and a large number of them are nuclear not atomic. The warheads are described as atomic not thermonuclear. Which means these are fission bombs not hydrogen bombs. Atomic bombs split atoms and to release masses of energy. Nuclear or hydrogen weapons use an atomic fission process to trigger the fusion of atoms and release even greater energy. So when you detonate a hydrogen bomb you are creating a small short lived star. The most powerful fission bomb ever detonated was 500 kilotons. The most powerful hydrogen bomb ever detonated was 50 megatons roughly 100 times more powerful. Sure Paul has firepower but compared to our real world he has a collection of pea shooters. And every moment of every day these horrfic devices are pointed at all of us. That is truly an abuse of power.

I had to comment for the stilgar love count guess. My guess...9 times? I'll be honest and add an edit with the result, when I watch

Rabban is a bad boss. Stilgar was my favorite. But you loke the Goth planet!

This rendering does NOT do the books justice

The sister can NOT be the messianic figure...unless they change that from the books. PAUL IS THE KWISATZ hadarach.....and so is his son The kwisatz hadarach came a generation too early

Feyd Rautha Harkonnen is bad, very bad, much more bad in the books than in this movie.

Please react to the sadness 2021 movie..

Can someone please explain why people (mostly women) just drip when they see Florence Pugh? I'm not saying she's a bad actor or she's unattractive. She is neither, but the fawning is just ... odd and over done.

like the first film, everything seems more than good, except for just one "detail": the protagonist, who continues to appear insignificant, insipid and without any charisma, quite the opposite of what the Kwisatz Haderach should to be. to the problems of Paul's non-existent sister and much worse, the death of the Baron, one can also pretend nothing happened, but unfortunately what should have been one of the main characters of this second film, Chani, turned out to have been developed in completely wrong way, so much so that it seems to go against not only Paul but the entire struggle supported by his people.

Chani, at the end of this film, is the one who goes back to living in a Fremen way. Also someone had to point out that he's not the Messiah, just a very naughty boy, and Villeneuve picked Chani.
