Your gripes about the movie?

no tufir hawat? you must be kidding me! seriously. as someone who loved the arena scene in the book the most. seriously WTF?

vilanvue is a retard

you liked it because you never read the book

Even at that length, it only had a fraction of the book in it.

TV series are the future for adapting books to the screen. Ten hours would handle the depth of the book, probably

Ever watch The Queen's Gambit? Eight episodes, very good adaptation. the only big change was details about her addiction.

It was like they invented a new character for Paul to interact with, then named her Chani. While part 1 was a good adaptation of the book, part 2 was nearly an adaptation in name only.

That's for Dune Messiah which is in Book 2 if I recall. They only covered Book 1 in two parts. Chani in the book was indeed always beside him, even when he took Irulan as his bride to be. This one looks like she hates the Lisan al Gaib prophecy so she goes off to do girl boss stuff. I wonder if the movie continuation will make some redemption arc for her since she has a sad ending after having the children.

The Fremen were not hunter/gathers. They had their own industrial base and education system. The book talks about it very little, and the film even less.

The hooks they used to open up a scale and expose the sensitive tissue underneath stopped the worm from going under again. The book explained that a worm that was forced to stay on the surface would go back down and sulk for a while after being released.

They store extra clothes in the caves? I keep belongings in three states and two countries so I don't need to check luggage all the time.

The Fremen were not the only ones who were not shown with showers/toilets. Why not assume they exist anyway?

-I'm surprised they didn't quickly harvest his water right there in case he succumbed. The real joke is pulling the blades out after being stabbed because reality is, if you take it out instead of leaving it in, blood just gushes out from the gaping wound. This is why when you're stabbed you leave it in until EMS then hospital can deal with it.

-Maybe it has to do with opening those air holes under the hard carapace that directs them not only to turn but to stay above ground? My biggest issue is how they were able to propel themselves straight forward so fast without any form of movement (ie: snake or earthworm). They eat a shit ton of sand so do they shit them out just as fast to propel forward?

-As you said, they change when they're in caves so those caves probably have them stored in places they frequently access. Sometimes they wear the hijab over their suits as well.

-If you've even been to Saudi Arabia or any other Middle Eastern nation in the dessert, this isn't such a uncommon thing to do. Hell, they even wear fully clothed during volleyball and in the summer to boot.

-Diet there is different and the spice keeps everyone high so the stank is just gunja with a twist. If cavemen were able to fuck back in the day so can those in Arrakis.

Considering how all the houses would've ganged up on the Emperor, I don't see why not. He was on his YOLO stage once they found out he ordered House Atreides eradicated at the behest of the Benne Gesserit.

Agree. Part Two was breathtaking and a visual feast. I actually preferred it to Part One.

If its true that there will be no extended edition, that is sad to hear.
If any movie would benefit from an extended edition, that movie would be Dune

Yeah, feels like a missed opportunity to not do longer versions to be released to hardcore fans.

My only real complaint was Chani turning on Paul and leaving at the end. I can only assume it's setting something up if he gets to do Dune Messiah, but even that feels hard to square with how that book goes.

I thought a lot over the last couple of years about how you do Alia without it looking ridiculous. I am not sure it's possible. A 2 year old running around stabbing people and being wiser than almost everyone else. I think the change they made worked. No complaints about it.

Drinking the poison aka Water of Life did indeed alter their way of thinking into deceit, manipulation, the suffering of others and death.

Watching it twice then checking the wiki helps understand more of everything.
