They steer the worms by pulling back the scales which exposes the soft inner flesh to the corse sand. This causes the worm to turn and rotate so the exposed flesh is at the top, thus minimizing any irritation.

Haven't seen it yet, but I don't care about spoilers for a 60yr old book. I'm here for this couple

So in the book they actually can steer the worms with the 2 tiny little hooks. When they pull the ring segments open the worm won’t go under the sand because they don’t want sand inside those segments. So if they wanted the worm to turn they move down the rings and the worm will turn. Usually they’ll ride the worms to exhaustion so it’s easy to dismount them because they become placid then. In the book they do explain it’s harder to get off if the worm isn’t ridden to exhaustion. 💜

Generally they only choose worm for transportation if they want to go long distances. They often refer to “20 thumper journeys”. Usually they wouldn’t summon a worm just to ride a few blocks.

Nick please make Joseph watch David Lynch’s Dune & review it !!

I love it when people try to explain the plot of Dune cause it all sounds so ridiculous even though its so amazing when you read/watch it😆 Its sandworm “bile” btw🤙🏻

They can’t wear protective shields in the desert, because it attracts sandworms.

Me too 🤔

I just got home from watching Dune, and I had the same question as Nick about how they get OFF of the freaking sandworms once they reach their destination.

I watched last night and really liked it. Thought Austin Butler was Bill Skarsgard for the whole movie

Note- Paul Atreides is 15 years old during this period. It might explain, in part, his lack of manliness.

Dune is not for everyone, so props for reading it. I admit I was never a fan (I read the first book and that was enough). It is very weird but admit this version kind of figured out how to do it where people are not hopelessly lost, which is what sunk the first one in the 1980's. The visuals are amazing and I actually could get what it was about just from watching the movie, which is a huge accomplishment.

"Sand worm piss" 😂😂😂😂 You two are a freaking gift! "Zendaya ...Runs off mad" 😂😂

Joseph, this is Dune and must be taken seriously. Where is Nick (hands on my hips). Thanks once again for making us smile gentlemen.

Some book context about the shields, they attract worms on that planet so you can’t wear them like out and about

“This fool is demented” 😂😂😂 You crack me up and we are of the same cloth.

I loved the little pug dog in the original David Lynch movie! So cute that they carry this tiny little dog around with them thru the desert. LOL

They live in the sietches like we saw in the movie, their lives are mostly survival, the desert leaves little else for them. They're a warrior people, so they train both males and females survival and fighting young. This is what's given in the books so you see how necessary a green world is to make their lives easier, better. The books, like history, focus on the royals and nobles, and pay pittance to the proles, but know the Fremen are great and noble people. I'm personally not a fan of the films, so I'm not defending it. On and David Lynch's shield is kinda cool, there's footage where someone put the old shields in the 2021 movie and it's looked great.

I think Villeneuve did a good job depicting mounting and steering the worms but not dismounting, which is just as cool.

Little known fact : In the books, "the spice" is actually blue. It is mentioned in the book, God Emperor of Dune. Edit : Some literature say it's brown but it glows blue.

She didn’t fall in love with him over night. This movie spans like 6 months. The pregnancy of pauls mom is one way of showing this.

It was incredibly frustrating to hear this misinterpretation. She also is clearly falling for him throughout the whole first part of the film where she’s being stand-offish. She was developing feelings and was pushing him away.

Lil' Austin Butler needs to send Vanessa Hudgen a bouquet of flowers every year he was told that he got the part of Elvis.

I saw this yesterday at a late night showing, waited for months for it to come out. I was super excited, only to fall asleep during some parts bc im just getting over bronchitis 😂 I'll definitely go again bc the cast and score/ sound were impeccable Thanks again, Nick & Joseph. 😊

I enjoy the enthusiasm people have for this story… people really love it… too much to keep up with for me Terrific review.

Thanks, now the "soap opera" side - helps anchor the many 'themes' of this plot! The 'spectacle' did not distract your attention to 'questioning' the *purpose* of this pursuit! *But* meanwhile, Messiah or no Messiah, he does end up killing his grandfather...

You guys are amazing. I have been waiting 2 weeks for this review from you and your Spoiler Review is the best one I could find in two weeks on KZread. Thank you.

Thanks for the review, guys! I felt a sense of detachment initially after Dune 1, but it improved on a second viewing! I think these movies need to be rewatched. Dune 2 was a great experience with standout moments like the gladiator fight and the Harkonnen storyline, and I wanted less of Paul/Chani, and more focus on the female characters too, like Joseph :)

This movie actually sounds so interesting

Tim-O-Tay got a battery in his back, baby and said I'm THAT guy..boy if you don't sit down somewhere & drink some milk 😂😂

I stopped the first installment 20 minutes in, so I'm only here for your lively banter. 😂

Dune 2: Tim-o-tay drinks the juice

Nick and Joseph you guys need to have a baby. Maybe he or she will be the messiah. LOL! Joseph you are already a Joseph. Nick would make an excellent Virgin Mary equivalent. Of course Sigourney Weaver will be the Goddess.

This is my favorite review of this movie hands down!

I have not seen Dune 2 yet... I wanted to hear your reviews first...and as usual... you two never fail... loved the review! I will be seeing the movie....oh and Joseph ...please check out Dune (1984)...you WILL laugh....in fact one of my favorite scenes in the original is when they are rushing into battle and Gurney (Patrick Stewart)....has his dog (a pug) in his arms.

Was waiting for this review. Searching for when you guys would take it on. Now I can save myself the trouble😏

I'm going to see it tomorrow, I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!

The sandworms have scales, when the Fremen jump on the sandworms, they pull up the scales with hooks, causing irritation to the sandworms. The Fremen control the sandworms, by how much they pull up on the scales. You are supposed to feel empty, because the profit has no cloths.

Don't remember the exact quote, but there is a line about the Shai-Hulud figuratively bowing to the messiah. So I wonder if Paul is able to communicate to the sandworm in some way after he drinks the life water.

Give me some of that blue juice. Lol 💙

Yay! I was waiting for y'all.

Finally a balanced analysis without the silly hype! Thanks!

Awesome review, fellas! Also, yall Mea Culpa review was hilarious lol. Watched it twice ❤ Are yall going to review the movie Parallel (2024)?

I watched the first film and couldn’t take the lead character seriously when he made that noise when he put his hand in the box. Thanks for explaining the film plot. Great review

You guys have to do a reading of the book where you keep calling Paul Tim O’Tay and Chani, Chobani. 😂

PLEASE REVIEW "Incendies" by Denis Villeneuve. It's his best film in my opinion.

@LynneJordan11

2 ай бұрын

Loved Incendies! One of the first movies I downloaded into a digital collection.

Y’all know the reverend mother who was dying was in the 1984 version as the bene jesserate* who tested Paul with the box. Just a little tough I thought was cool

I liked Timothee post water of life but when I saw the shot of him storming into the Fremmen gathering, I kept thinking "It's Fashion Week In Arrakis..." Something about the lighting and the intensity of the strut made me think he was owning the catwalk.

I love how many scenes of this film are described as “cool” despite being in the desert 😉

Overall, I really enjoyed the movie and it was a lot better than the first one. I totally agree with you all about Timothee’s performance after he drank the water of life feeling off and almost unbelievable because it was such an abrupt switch from how he was previously.

Happy March 🎉 keep up the great content 😃

The spice must flow-spice is oil, and presumably (given when he wrote the books) Herbert is interested in critiquing the relationship between the post-1945 imperial USA’s relationship with west Asian states with oil resources in their territories. 🤷‍♂️

I enjoyed it. They spent too much time on Paul learning to fit in with the Fremen and most fights went on too long. In the book this happened over a couple years. They could have just jumped ahead. They completely omitted Count Fenring, a character who was a sterile dead end of the same breeding program. The emperor wanted him to kill Paul after Feyd failed, and Fenring refuses because of the quiet scorn he has felt snd his kinship with Paul. Thufir is completely absent. In the book, Alia, the little sister is a small child and poisons the Baron. The people kill Rabban(Batista) rather than Gurney(Brolin). The Water of Life is condensed and altered spice excreted from a dead little maker (baby worm). Feyd is Rabban's brother. The plan originally was for Rabban to be very brutal to th locals and when Feyd took control and was less oppressive, the people would love him for being less oppressive.

thanks lads!

This movie was amazing I just hate when a movie gets so hyped, the reviews I was hearing for this made me very critical going in but it was amazing but def had lots of holes and def not one of the best movie ever lol

Lol, sandworm urine. 😂 The film is a master class, but I like the chill perspective. That is fair criticism too about the ordinary life of the Fremen! You do get some depictions, but an extra few minutes seeing the community would have been welcomed.

Hey Nick and Joseph - I hope you saw this in IMAX !!

Thank you for the realistic review and rating. I agree with the 3.5/5 rating. Yes, the film looks and sounds spectacular....truly an epic achievement in film-making which I think is somewhat clouding a number of issues with the film. The biggest being the pacing....too much time is spent with Paul in the dessert learning the ways/falling in love/etc. which then made the last half (and especially the last quarter) feel very rushed which is unfortunate as there is far more information to convey in that part of the film. The film was 30 minutes too long, Denis loves to linger on beautiful images and revisit flash-backs/visions (again and again) which obviously looks great but it eats up time and kills momentum and pacing....this was the same issue he had with Blade Runner 2049. There were a number of plot-holes or questionable editing choices where scenes were cut off or not followed through. More micro criticisms....Chalamet under-acts and then over-acts, as an actor he needs to find more of a balance...Zendaya over-did the anger in many scenes, esp the end....Bautista's acting was very poor....Walken was mis-cast and pulled us out of the film.

I really enjoyed the film and actually appreciated them not getting to in the weeds and how everything crashed together in the end. I was actually able to follow along with who was who which for me is saying something lol. I do agree that Walken was dreadfully miscast.

I was waiting for this review. I read Dune when I was 15 and as crazy as it may sound I love David Lynch's Dune even though it has obvious problems. The new versions are great, but they have their own short falls. Dune 2 is excellent.

Love the review. What were your thoughts on Austin Butler's accent since he basically copied Stellan's accent and didn't tell Stellan he was going to do that. Also what were your thoughts on the infrared world of geidi prime.

I am going to watch Lynch's again then go see this tomorrow. Fun review!

The fourth book, God Emperor is probably one of the weirdest, funniest, and most interesting books I've ever read. Bene Gesserit is a semi homophone for Jesuits.

have you seen & reviewed the film Cabrini directed by Alejandro Monteverde ? Just saw it , what a surprise, was really good.

I haven’t read the books in a bit but it does explain how the books control the worms. By hooking and pulling back the scales you expose these gills or air vents. And while pulled open the cannot submerge back under. And in the movie you see when pulled back there are holes exposed.

The Friedman actually do in control of the worms when they connect their lead lines to them. As you can see in the movie that they control steering with those lead lines once they're hooked in.

Wait did I miss the pull quote 👀

Saw it earlier today & loved it! I wish it was another 30 min long ❤

They are fighting for Freedom from exploitation. BUT Joseph had (as usual) a great point. I wouldn’t have minded seeing them living.

Fast forwarded to the end for your rating and then will come back for full spoil after I see it tomorrow. ❤

This movie is great. Going to see it again. Love you guys.

I read the dune books back in the 70’s. This movie was impressive to me. I also wished they had subtitled Javier. 😂

I definitely enjoyed this second one more than the first. Although seeing it in IMAX makes a huge difference. I felt way more immersed in the visuals and the world then when I saw the first one on a tiny ass flat screen.

I had no interest in watching either of these movies. I don’t care for either of the lead actors, but you all made it sound so interesting that I need to watch the first one now. Will you review the first one if you watch it? Great video as always 🥰

Your pronunciation of Timothee may be correct, but now I can't get Timotei out of my head! 😂😂 kzread.info/dash/bejne/kY2TxJOzpaismaw.htmlfeature=shared

I thought Austin Butler was Bill Skarsgard for a good chunk of the movie 😂 but I LOVED Dune Part Two ❤ if the Last Jedi had the same twist as this, it would of been EPIC 🔥 and I’m watching baby blood immediately! 😂

David Lynch’s Dune is camp I swear. I actually did a “toe in” of 1984’s Dune! My friend was managing editor of Cinefantastique back in the 80’s so I had a hook up.

Just saw dune part 2 !!! Holy crap it was amazing!!!! It is now my favorite Dennis villeneuve film !!! This film is a masterpiece in filmmaking!!! The Hans zimmer score 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Saw it opening night iMax was sold out. Still prefer 84 movie because it was way more cray. I've read all of the books except the 2022 one Dune: The Heir of Caladan. I just ordered it. Saw both miniseries also. Dune is why we have the space soap operas like Star wars. Dune is og for Space politics. I imagine many more movies and tv. When I saw this the first thing I did out of the theater was youtube search" fish jelly dune 2" glad the review is up now. Please do a review of Lynch version.

I just want to say the director hates dialogue he's more of a visual director

Your Madame Web review was the only one I wanted to see! But it’s okay, I think I already heard plenty of them to the point where they all sound the same

I’m not interested in these dune movies because of timothee so the closest thing to that for me is watching ur review on it

Tim o tay!

Only 3,5 ?! Ok, then it would be nice to have a wrap up video at the end of the year or whatever with the movies you rated 3,5 and above !

I was wondering how all the old elderly disabled in children get on the worm as well. How do they get on or off?

With the worms don’t they find getting the sand between their scales painful? That’s why is they have someone riding them the worms will not dive back into the sand and keep the area where the scales are apart as far away from the ground and sand as possible.
