One of the things I find interesting about the sandworm scene, is to try and imagine it from the onlookers point of view. From what I can tell, given the editing, Paul basically runs into the sandfall of the passage of the worm, and is swallowed by the dunes, vanishing from sight. That he's literally under the surface of the desert, basically in a pocket of displaced air/sand from the passing of the worm. So then he plants his hooks, and then rises up. So, from the viewpoint of the Fremen watching, and given their religious lens, it would seem as if Paul was either swallowed by the desert, or dove into it (a more likely interpretation, given they established the idea of swimming in the opening scene with Chani), and the he swam through the desert like Shai-Hulud himself. Only to rise up from the depths of the sands, born upon the back of Old Man of the Desert! It feels very much the kind of interpretation of the events, from a mythmaking standpoint. And the kind of thing that would propel Paul into the status of legend in their culture.

Hope Denis gets to make Dune:Messiah to complete the trilogy ... Paul's story isn't really complete without it.

In 6 years, the Dune will become a cult hit! And that makes it easier to make Messiah eventually!

My grandma got me into Dune when I was 8 by showing me the David Lynch version. As silly as it sounds, I think the campiness made the movie more accessible to me as a kid. I sat through it all in one go, mesmerized. Getting into the books and having these adaptations as an adult makes it feel like the story grows and evolves alongside me as I comprehend more, which is really comforting. I just introduced my partner to Dune and seeing his face light up makes me wonder if my grandma was feeling the same way I was in that moment when she shared Dune with me.

My guess is Paul won't have blue-in-blue eyes for much of the film while Jessica will because she endured the spice agony. He'll probably have normal eyes throughout the film up until his own spice agony; that shot of Paul awakening with blue eyes was probably going to be a big reveal.

Classic Frank Herbert: at first you think those Irulan’ chapter intros are just building backstory, but then you realize even she’s become a fanatic, or is at least helping the fanaticism grow. Gives the entire book a sense of utter inevitability. Also, loved you pointing out Stilgar’s religious experience.

Greatly said. I know it’s way too early to hope but I really would love Messiah made soon after Part 2 release. Hard to really capsulate what FHs message was without telling the story of Messiah. Despite its flaws, it’s one of my favorites in the series and I think it’d make for a great slow burner film for an “explosive” ending that would leave the audience questioning their own beliefs. Loads of people like myself saw the film before reading the books and I sort of understand their discourse with certain aspects, especially before reading the books. I feel Messiah would really wrap up the message for those that aren’t too familiar with source material. Cheers

Yeah, Dune is a cautionary tale, not an instruction manual for aspiring White Saviors

Thank you for this. I hate the fact that the “white savior” is bandied around when talking about Dune. I agree with these comments. Thank you!

I am fascinated by the symbiotic relationship of Baron Harkonnen and Judge Holden, I am pretty convinced the Baron was part of the inspiration for the Judge and seeing Villeneueve's depiction of the Baron as a towering, ultra violent, hairless albino who spends alot of time naked doesn't seem accidental at all.

Noticed a clear inspiration from Colonel Kurtz in Denis' Dune, too

@@Zlarel the actor said he was the inspiration. Hell the scene where he's coming up out of the oil is almost a shot for shot remake. Even the mannerisms and the way he talks is totally Kurtz.

Been watching for years, really love your stuff thanks!

Your reminders to like the video are the best, for some reason. It actually does remind me to like when I'm maybe too engrossed to remember.

I'm sure fanfiction writers will find lots of ways for Paul and Fayed to mate.

Yeah, it's true... Like the 'thilbo' (Thorin + Bilbo) fanfics...

I’m hoping they will finish Thufir’s story. I always felt he was given short shrift in the previous two productions. He was such an interesting character. It would be a shame not to see him forced to serve the Baron while covertly trying to manipulate the House from within.

The fact that she is scholar and writer is mentioned in the miniseries but very briefly and at the very end.

I just hope one day we get to see a live action God Emperor of Dune, definetly the most profound book in the series

Me too. It's my favourite book of the series. I want to see the god emperor on screen and I'm sure Denis would make him look awesome.

It appears to have more political intrigue as well. That's the one thing I thought we didn't get enough of in Pt. 1 given that they had to establish world building and character arcs. Also love the parallels to Lawrence of Arabia like the shot of the figure walking through the desert, Paul raising the crysknife to the crowd of Fremen, etc. It's all so beautiful.

Alia is so critical to later books, I just don't see how Villeneuve can leave her character out of Part 2. The 'That's not hope!' scene made me think more of Paul's resistance to the Golden Path, moreso than an outcry against the Bene Gesserit Missionaria Protectiva. It's been a minute since I've read the books, though, so maybe I'm misplacing that in the timeline. All said, though, I am totally stoked for this second film. I really need to reread the books, it's been at least seven years since I last read the original series.

Love your vids Quinn, you gotta fan for life.

I wouldn’t worry about Alia not being in Part 2 given that we literally see a glimpse of her as a baby in Part 1. The question moreso is how they execute her portrayal.

I think Stilgar's look is also partly him knowing that Paul successfully riding his first worm will give him the status among the men to challenge Stilgar for leadership. And he knows he wont stand a chance against Paul. That is a religious experience mixed the knowledge that he is going to die because of that religion.

Thank you Quinn for your work and dedication, you're awesome : ))

I love your excitement for Dune, thank you for sharing with us

I think the Count Fenring might be Tim Blake Nelson's character, I can see that being a thing
