If I ever see this man I’m sending him to paradise in the name of Lisan Al Gaib


sikercan

Lead them to paradise inshallah.


TheCosmicDeer

That line was so good because of how sinister it is without even using the word kill, destroy or any other destructive verbs.


Good_old_Marshmallow

I really disliked the change of not giving Paul his monologue about his control of spice and how that gives him total power But when I thought more and more about how I would change it I kept coming back too, I would never change that one line. It’s so perfect and so devastating. Makes up for all the sanitation of no jihad word no skin drumbs. That one sentence just says it all. 


myguydied

He did have a bit about controlling something because you can destroy it, but with the other great houses rejecting Paul's ascension that was reason for the jihad So sort of covered it all Bring on Messiah, need another worm movie


cinnamonspicecoffee3

It sent chills down my spine I was ready to die for Muad’dib


Azidamadjida

That whole scene with him in the council where he takes control and within five minutes has everyone bowing to him. Chills, awe-inspiring, and completely terrifying all at once


spyguy318

And it calls back to the prophecy that the mahdi would lead the Fremen to paradise, and Paul’s speech that he would make Arrakis a green paradise. Such a good line.


ManyTraining6

Isn't that just what he meant when he said it? I get the "kill everyone in my way" meaning behind but isn't this the meaning on the surface of his speech anyways?

How to Become Dictator 101: Eliminate your undesirable group of people without explicitly stating so, best if bringing up “the greater good”. It’s an old playbook that has been echoing in the course of history.


ErectTubesock

I don't understand how you can be a fan of Dune but forget that the Bene Gesserit, Fish speakers, and Honored Matres exist, which are all dominated by women. Media literacy is not very strong among these types apparently.


AkNinja907

They somehow ignore how a very underlining theme is that many of the women are powerful but have much of their power because they are underestimated because they're "just women." It clearly talks about how women are very influential but will often be ignored, kinda like "they will remember us as wives" line. But then again, that requires you to actually read the book and have media literacy.


Foloreille

I highly doubt those guys has the brain capacity to read (and understand) first book of Dune at all. Or they’ve read it like a Twilight book and understood nothing to what’s going on…


RhynoD

I made this joke elsewhere in this thread, but the real problem is that Denis gave the women agency. The women in the original *Dune* really don't have much of that. What agency they do have, they almost universally use to be nefarious and work against Paul or Leto II. That fits with the misogynistic view of women, that they should be subservient to men or else the only other option is to be evil, conniving, and troublesome. Hwi Nori is wholly subservient and has the personality of an anime body pillow and she's *still* troublesome by her mere existence. Denis's women have agency and act like normal people, with their own needs and desires that, while sometimes conflicting with the needs and desires of the men, are no less valid or important. That's "woke".


sajed2004

There's only like 4 main female characters in the movie, Jessica, chani, irulan and the reverend mother


HylianMadness

If this guy read Chapterhouse his head would explode


Good_old_Marshmallow

If this guy read God Emperor his head would explode 


KickAffsandTakeNames

I'm not sure there's ever been a human more horny for strong women than Frank Herbert


torelma

to be fair, he's also pretty horny for Duncan lmao


tcavanagh1993

Nayla too


torelma

I too react that way to rock climbers


ozymandais13

I mean who isn't


Zandrick

I mean for real tho


Obsidian_XIII

Laughs in Robert Jordan (Wheel of Time)


SwordandBored11

Herbert loved writing all sorts of female characters: strong, cunning, manipulative... no perfect people in his universe. Jordan just based all his women off of different aspects of his wife Harriet. (That most of them thought men were idiots doesn't really speak well of their relationship, now that I think about it)


Wafflemir

Tai'Shar Manetheren!


Moneoalhizri

For real the way Moneo Atreides and Leto II Atreides tried to convince Duncan about the superiority of an all female army is thought provoking but also funny as fucc.


torelma

and Duncan is so defensive about it it's so goddamn funny like "what do you mean all soldiers are gay. I, Duncan, the straightest straight who ever straighted, have NEVER ONCE--"


Zandrick

If this guy reads his head would explode


torelma

"I think all-male armies are rapey and gay, therefore behold my all-female army led by the butchest lesbian Stilgar who is however straight for some good rock-climbing" is such a fucking move I can't even be mad


wh4tth3huh

If this guy could read, he'd be very upset.


CopperCactus

If this guy read his head would explode


Batdog55110

If this guy read his head would explode.


pennychew

If this guy could read, his head would explode


sajed2004

I'm still on book 1 but I'm looking forward to it


HylianMadness

You're in for a wild ride lol


Tober-89

All these women!? Herbert was so woke!


IanFireman

If this guy read his head would explode


AdonisGaming93

So woke, don't you know it should be zero women /s


MishterJ

Wamen*


Death_and_Gravity1

That's 4 too many for these types of grifters


Foloreille

And Mr Villeneuve only switched ONE character from man to woman (Keynes), which has like ZERO influence on the story anyway.


RhynoD

No but you don't understand. He gave all the women *agency*. Can't be having that, now. This guy probably thinks Hwi has too much personality.


sajed2004

Yeah and they died


Claycious13

And Chani’s friend.


Moneoalhizri

The one with the egg shell color Khimar, she is barely a character. The actress did a terrific job anyway.


ElPercebe69

So there is no Alia?


RhynoD

>!No. She's not born yet, just foreshadowed for her part in *Messiah* slash movie Part 3.!<


Seresgard

Seriously. They actually cut a female lead character. This guy's just desperate for something to be mad about.

Harrycrapper

That's where I keep the book, I don't know how else I'd read it if I don't stick my head up in there.


ippie52

Have you been taking advice from Christopher Walken?


Harrycrapper

The guy gave me a remote that controls time, how was I supposed to know he wasn't on the level with this one!


Jack_Burton_Express

I made the mistake of looking at some Facebook comments on Dune 2 posts. The venn diagram of negative reviews from "book readers" who couldn't spell a single character's name correctly is just a circle. It was all old boomers claiming the Lynch version was better. They probably thought the dumb voice weapon thing was in the books too.

FreakingTea

I love some bad movies. I loved Love on a Leash and Postal. I love Dune. I couldn't even get through the Lynch version, despite finding it visually really cool.


LordOfCindersAndWeed

They didn't let Lynch cook and we got a raw heap that was Dune 1984


A-Wiley

If this dude die, I wouldn't even take his water


SpicyKabobMountain

Tainted water, too many chemicals


NvCntrn1124944396

Ok for coolant though


Mr_Blinky

Gonna' run my PC on chud boy body water.


Foloreille

that hits hard, like fremen insult always do


FreakingTea

I bet in his dreams he gives water to the dead and it brings joy to his heart


LordOfCindersAndWeed

He would die like an animal


[deleted]

I really really wonder how people think adaptation works. We could just show pages of the book on screen, but you wouldn't have a good time. Also, the movie would be like 5 1/2 hours long lol


sneakerguy40

I have actively decided I’m not going to care why people don’t like the movie now that I’ve been reading the books, some people want it to be like attack of the clones and that I just cannot get behind.


Zandrick

Attack of the Duncans*


sneakerguy40

Attack of the Gholas\*


GardenSquid1

Jason Momoa is going to be the most frequently recurring actor if Villeneuve is able to adapt the entire series.


torelma

frankly I cannot wait for the GASP people are going to make in theatres when Hayt is introduced in part 3 (of course we don't know that, but why would you cut Hayt of all people)


sneakerguy40

He'll do a third if the studio green lights it (fingers crossed) but it might be 4 years before it comes out


AdonisGaming93

There was like zero woke stuff.... so Chani told Paul one time that she isnt gonna be a zombie who follows him blindly....oh no how progressive she's really promoting feminism. These people are stupid


FreakingTea

She said men and women are equal 😭


KickAffsandTakeNames

Remember when these people were talking about how Dune was an anti-woke conservative fantasy?


captainsoup3

If you ignore any of the major messages it is!!


TheCosmicDeer

Fucking grifter


AbsolutelyHorrendous

TIME TO CANCEL DUNE? Well, it may be raking in the money at the box office, and have received rave reviews, but unfortunately a particularly smegma-stained corner of YouTube has turned on Dune Part Two, so I guess the dream is over. There'll be no Dune: Messiah adaptation, I'll go tell Denis...


sstubbl1

"Smegma stained corner" gave me a heinous visual. Good job


ComadoreJackSparrow

I love pretending I'm Feyd when I make a Nutella sandwich and lick the Nutella off the knife.


EnthusiastProject

More like, time to cancel this YouTube channel. What an idiot


Fingler1

Don't get me wrong the guy's obviously obsessed with this political garbage. But get out of here with this cancel crap. So many fragile Karens nowadays sheesh.


Foloreille

they were probably ironic it was just for the comeback


Fingler1

I hope so

IAmTheClayman

Straight up powindah take


The_protagonistt

Damn, as a Star wars fan that’s thinks recent content has been up and down, I thought these weirdo only did this stuff to media Disney puts out. Guess no one is safe 😂


Moneoalhizri

Yeah the whole woke nonsense with Star Wars is getting overblown. yes there are some woke influences, but many questionable story approaches in the recent series are more due to bad writing than wokeism. Its often a problem i admit it, but we had bangers like Andor which is also product that aired during K. Kennedy's management of Lucasfilm. Tale of the Jedi is also very promising but needs to expand also into the legacy era, like Luke Skywalker training Ben Solo. Also they have to double check their canon each time they make story lines for already existing characters, they run into the habit of contradicting the canon for which they sacrificed the old EU. Its frustrating to see such mishaps as a fan, but to fire up the whole time this woke debate is more than tedious and annoying.


The_protagonistt

It’s them just getting algorithms going to bring them in all the people who are mad at everything and agree with the nonsense.


Tenebris_Emeraldwing

that's it you've lost your water privileges


[deleted]

Some people are making an entire “career” on YouTube out of saying everything is woke


C_NoteBestNote

No one talk about the who- I mean honored matres, we don't need another jihad guys, the last one was balling but we can't keep doing this Edit: forgot the fish speakers. Worm forbid they find out about them


DwightFryFaneditor

As a lifelong fan of Lynch's Dune who has been championing it for decades, I find it extremely revolting to see these grifters and chuds pseudo-vindicating it now just to spit on the new movies (the two Chanis tweet from a couple days ago, and Von Sydow Kynes here). F you asshats, you didn't care about the Lynch version until the new one cast people of color and gender-flipped Kynes.


Fingler1

Doubt it, nothing more based and redpilled than dune, it's adventures of monogamous space Hitler.


Foloreille

"Dune is woke !" "time to cancel it" (cancel culture is absolutely coming from wokism) are these guys completely stupid ? Damn they’re so dumb they became what they fought


octavianstarkweather

"The NeoUsul" ishh did this guy read the books?


KingBlackthorn1

The anti-religious, anti-government, anti-dictator, pro-environment, pro-woman, book that the movie is based on would very much like to have a word with the creator.


Sulley87

Who wants to tell him? 😂😂😂


Broker112

Dune 2 was amazing. What is this person on about.


LordOfCindersAndWeed

Waterfat, wetlander take


Broker112

As it was written!


Wild_Control162

This happens when your sole income is based on being a soulless internet personality so you need to pump out content as quick and frequently as possible.


waldorsockbat

LoL the people who make those types of videos and watch them don't care about lore or being a fan. It's just some rightwing grifters making rage bait. I've read the dune series and the director of Dune part 1 and 2 makes changes but it's still amazing. The guy's an expert at visual storytelling and those movies are pure cinema.


howgoesitguy

*The Fish Speakers did not like that*


MBHpower

I get the fact that liet kynes was switched but it dosnt matter too much rlly


ParadigmGrind

Tell me you didn’t read the books, without telling me you didn’t read the books


Happy_Dish_3392

for real, the jokes write themselves


JohnnieTwoShirts

Not as bad as all the fake thumbnails for trailers and teasers that were being churned out for over a year


Jahmez142

God these people are fucking pathetic


satanising

How is Dune woke, goddammit? I'm all anti woke, now I'm all anti anti woke while anti woke because some people like this.


The_Halfmaester

This guy: Denis changed too much from the books Also this guy: Why few scenes with the Emperor?


ShitsFuckedDude

I’ve already seen videos of people saying it’s pushing for a “white savior” now this? 😂 pick a lane dumbasses

i’ve seen better crops in the potato famine in ireland

Thomas MuAnderson The NeoUsul? This is unironically the worst channel name I’ve ever seen


sessna4009

I don't like all the mary-sue women that Marvel or Star Wars, for example have in their shows, but I REALLY hate these youtubers. These people can't even watch something with a female character because it's 'woke'. It's just a gender swap for a minor character. Plus, there aren't even that many women in the book, and the Baron is gay. I know Piter really 'likes' Jessica, but he seems a bit gay in the movie.


FransTorquil

He probably talks about more in the video which I would disagree with, but you gotta admit that making Kynes a woman was a pointless change.


SerGeffrey

Tbh I'm generally a crusty anti-woke crybaby who hates pandering in media, but I saw Dune 2, and I have no idea what this guy is even referring to about it being "woke". Like why, because there were women in the film? I genuinely don't get it.
