    We need to re-learn how to hold 2 or 3 or 4 contradictory thoughts in our heads at the same time. Somehow it’s gone missing recently. Watch E.T. or Close Encounters or Schindler’s List or Minority Report and then say what you said. Bad father? Ok, fine. Good filmmaker? Yeah, ok fine. We can do better when thinking about these things and people. Because, after all, they’re just people. Practice some grace

    "And that scene surfing the sandworms is one of the greatest things I have ever seen. Ever!" Now if that ain't some of the highest goddamn praise you could get as a filmmaker, when the man who made JAWS and JURASSIC fucking PARK tells you you blew his mind on the genre he damn near mastered before you could walk. Denis has to be floating on Cloud 9 even days afterward. And hearing Spielberg speak _Dune_ facts just makes me giddy AF.

    I wonder how they could possibly convey Paul's prescience, and while they are actual visions, the most effective moment for me in this regard was purely Chalamet's acting in the scene where he says, ". . . a narrow path." As much as Villeneuve dislikes dialogue, everything about that shot sold what Paul had become as Kiwsatz Haderach so much more effectively than any direct depiction of his subjective experience.

The original film is so 80s nostalgic for me I can never hate it, even with a super happy celebratory ending. The sci fi series has some good dialogue and acting. Since it lasts several episodes, you can really see the gradual character arc for Paul that you don’t see in the feature films.

    Wow, two masters. I love them both. I think Denis is already one of the best directors of all time. He's in my top five, and he's only just begun making great films. I love the cinematography of Greig Fraser, but I can't help but wonder what this all would have looked like if Deakins shot it. I really think Deakins is the absolute most wonderful DP of all time, and his work is stunning. Blade Runner 2049 was top three most beautiful films of all time. Dune is gorgeous, but WWDD? I don't mean to be negative. I can't help but fantasize.

    What was your top 3 scenes or moments in Dune part 2, for me they were, when Paul had his first speech’s s the kwizzatzaterach/Lisan Al Qaib to the foremen in the south, as well as Jessica becoming the new reverend mother I have a new found respect for her performance in this film, the Geidi Prime scene where feyd is “followed” and ofcourse the “kiss the ring scene” where EVERYONE BOWS man so so good , honourable mention is the ornithopter attack when Paul attacks rabben’s troops

    In no particular order: - Sandworm attack: most epic thing I’ve seen in ages! - Giedi Prime sequence: never seen anything like it. - Stilgar on the ship taking off: starting the Jihad/starting the events that lead to Messiah. Gave me chills. Honorable mention: The Bene Gesserit scheming. Right out of later novels.

    If anyone hasn't seen Dune 2 yet, then go and see it. It's once in a lifetime achievement. The last great film in the same league (in my opinion) would be Lord of the Rings. I really didn't like Dune 1, I thought the acting was wooden with a bunch of cliched character types, the editing clunky, sometimes rushed, sometimes boring. Dune 2 is a completely different animal - perfect editing, outstanding acting by all the cast (Zendaya wow) and breathtaking photography and action sequences. Very close to being the best science fiction film I've ever seen.

    I remember that dialogue in Lawrence of Arabia I always liked Lawrence saying "because it's clean" and I remember Alec Guiness playing the arab prince saying something (not in the same dialogue) like "you are one of those europeans in love with the desert we don't we love oasis and water" or something like that. Anyway the little I saw of the film some scenes reminded me a lot of Lawrence of Arabia and Villeneuve himself cited it as an inspiration.

    Frank Herbert designed the spice trade around the oil industry but also the Bedouin spice trade, which is how they came to prominence in Arbia. To me the spice has a dual aspect: it represents a confluence not only of material power but also political and psychic/psychological (as distinct from and far mor profound what we normally call "religious power," which is really just political power as wieled by the Bene Gesserit.) Spice greases the military-industrial gears of the universe and it's bureaucracies which, aas a plot devise, allowed it to become a far greater barycentre of influence than any material commoditiy could ever be in our world, but it has a secret and that's prescience. It conveys that the very stuff of the human mind that messiahs are born out of is even more precious than physical energy -- it's a very subversive statement about that actual nature of religion and the mind and is likely the reason Tolkien disliked the series. On the one hand Herbert denies that God is metaphysical, which is an obvious affront to the sensibilities of organized religions, while at the same time he doesn't dismiss it as fairy stories. What this all points to is that the spice's physical form is like the breadcrumbs leading to the proverbial Philospher's Stone: the crux of the human soul. And if a man could get to that fulcrum -- even if it took a hundred generations to breed and cultivate a person capable of it -- you could give him a lever and a place to stand and he could move the universe. _That_ is the real danger. The danger is not that messiahs aren't what they're cracked up to be; that they're fake. It's that they're _more_ than they every bit what myths say about them and more. They are real and radically different than what we understand and we meddle with these forces at our peril. Anyone who thinks they want Jesus to save his soul ought to read the Book of Revelation. Herbert evidently did.

    Paul still is a Messiah though albeit a bred/created one, he remains a kwisatch haderach 😉 and through those ancestors memories he surpasses just being a single person and it allows him to follow the golden path of least harm, as it will prevent the end of humanity, and needs to become mature enough that this path comes with the cost of billions of deaths to save all 🤷‍♂️

    But part of the reason why it needs to cost billions is because he chose that specific path to get his revenge. Once it is set in motion it is the only way forward (although dooms the Fremen ) . In the book he saw other ways early on but they didn’t include revenge so he took the risk hoping he’d find a way around the rest. Only to find there is no way around it once started
