Instead of the Hero rising above "their station in life" the Hero must learn to be their own person and reject the role they are forced into.

A true masterwork at odds with what people expected, bringing much needed questioning towards what people assume, have done, do and will still do regarding heroes, leaders and prophets. The fact that people actually complained about this book and it's outcome is the clear revelation of the deep and ingrained psyche humans have towards some special individuals that manage to shape our destinies.

Uch, completely disagree. People don't have an issue with the message about Paul becoming a tyrant, they have an issue with the book itself! You see Paul's prescience and how it unwittingly placed him at the center of a galactic bloody jihad is never properly explained. Paul insists that the path he is pursuing is better than the alternatives but we do not know what those alternatives are. And even if the point of the book was to demonstrate how it is the very existence of such immense power that causes the inevitability of such destruction, then the book did not really demonstrate this either. The book merely asserts that the atrocities were inevitable without actually showing it.

Oh man. I remember that scene at the end of the novel. I was floored at just how dramatic it was. So much build up and the tension was crazy.

It's easy to remember, but the entire litany is a bit long, and takes some practice to memorize. I just wonder if it works.

How does one win a war unless the guild is behind you.

What a completely wonderful movie. Thanx! Frank Herbert drwafs even GRRM.

Thanks so much for making these! They're so well done! You make the books so accessible.

Bro Shoutout to Quinn, this dude was the number one motivator to get me to read Dune. And it has become my favorite series of books, and for that, I thank you Quinn. Keep up the great work my man @Quinnsideas

The most powerful person in the story is terrified of losing his wife in childbirth. There’s yet another thing George Lucas stole from Dune.

Every sci-fi and story steals from things that came before it... that's how literacy works.

I think the words are "homage" and "inspired" but whatever.

@@fujocritic9603 Nah. Lucas pretty blatantly stole from Frank Herbert, Kurosawa’s films, WW2 movies and the sci-fi serials of his youth. I love Star Wars but call it what it is; pretty much everything non-SW (and roughly 1/2 of the SW films he did make) that didn’t involve Spielberg, is crap.

Hey, I found you from your GOT videos but now I am hooked on your Dune series. You have a great voice and you create a very nice atmosphere. Also your explanations are always to the point. Hopefully I am making sense here. Keep up!

I've read the series a number of times, but I love hearing someone explain it to me in their own words.

I just finished reading this book and I just can’t wrap my head around Frank Herbert’s genius, but this channel helps. I’m truly in awe of his work.
