Denis Villeneuve doesn't miss. A master of science fiction at this point but I'm excited for anything he does.

2024-09-03 20:55:26 +0000 UTCHow do we tell Arianna that the books become more and more crazy to try and adapt, and that Villi has even said he's only doing book 2, maybe book 3

2024-05-29 06:44:27 +0000 UTCI think Frank Herbert would love this reaction video as the perfect way to take the story.

2024-05-29 06:11:34 +0000 UTCMy only solid complaint of this adaptation is keeping Alia in the womb...I would loved to have seen how Villi would have presented a child Alia. And I would get a kick out of seeing people react to Alia as well.

2024-05-23 00:44:01 +0000 UTCIf you can find it in theaters somewhere still, it MUST be watched in a theater, in IMax if possible. Its the only movie Ive ever left and had to watch again because the sound was putting me into some kind of overload/shock. Like missing entire plot points or the visuals just being a blur because the sound was frying my brain. And yes, the black sun on the Harkonnen planet bleaches out all color while in the direct light. They get a little color back when in shadow or indoors.

2024-05-06 14:08:09 +0000 UTCFun fact I'm sure someone else has mentioned: If Paul had been born a woman as intended by the Bene Gesseritt, the plan was to convince Leto to marry femPaul to Feyd Rautha to end the Atriedes-Harkonnen feud and potentially give birth to the Kwisatz Haderach. So that sexual tension between them is HILARIOUS. Also, incredible credit to Timothee for making Paul feel like a entirely different, and somehow darker, person after he takes the Water. Kinda feels like you can even see him pause to check possible futures a few times before he responds or acts afterwards too.

2024-05-06 05:02:28 +0000 UTCFrank Herbert was inspired by the film Lawrence of Arabia when he wrote Dune. You guys should watch that film. One of the best ever made.

2024-05-06 03:03:36 +0000 UTCI would love a discussion vid if you think there is stuff to talk about. Personally, I find Dune so interesting because of the influence it had on sci-fi and also its a very unusual kind of story. "Beware charismatics leaders" and Paul ends up kinda the bad guy. Not a typical heroes journey for sure. The film is just a clinic in blockbuster movie making, I could gush but I think its pretty obvious.

2024-05-05 23:03:26 +0000 UTCHonestly, watching the movies before going to the books helps build the world even more since it’s a pretty dense read first time through. The first two movies finish the first book so you won’t have to worry about spoilers. Also would take a look into more Denis films. I know you’ve watched quite a few on the channel already but would take a look at ‘Incendies’ if you ever get the chance.

2024-05-05 16:15:47 +0000 UTCThis has to be their best reaction really entertaining all around!

2024-05-05 11:56:29 +0000 UTCHilarious that you mention the sexual tension between Feyd and Paul since, as stated in Part 1, Jessica was supposed to bear a daughter to Leto. The Bene Gesserit wanted to marry a female Paul to Feyd, bringing Atreides and Harkonnen together, and their child presumably would have been the true desired Kwisatz Haderach of the Bene Gesserit.

2024-05-05 11:28:42 +0000 UTCHerbert complained that many readers thought Paul was the hero. To make Herbert's original aim clearer, Villeneuve changed Chani's character so that she acts as the moral view of the audience . But it's so heartbreaking that she loses basically everything. Her love, her people, her idealism. I'll be interested to see what path, if any, Villeneuve creates for Chani in Messiah.

2024-05-05 07:13:10 +0000 UTCHi ladies, as someone who also didn't really have any clue into any Dune lore, I would seriously recommend finding some time to watch 'The Lorebrarians' Dune lore breakdown. It's 45 minutes and gives a really nice breakdown of the events leading to this timeline in the universe, and you can always stop watching when it's caught up to the end of this film. It helped me a lot in learning and understanding things. Awesome reaction, nonetheless!

2024-05-05 06:26:27 +0000 UTCAgain it's all personal preference but dubbed has come along way in it's years. The latest stuff being outstanding compared to older dub.

2024-05-05 01:25:52 +0000 UTCJapanese voice acting always goes way harder, and maintains the more adult theme of most of the shows. I feel like the English dub actors don't really get the memo on a lot of this stuff and default to Saturday morning cartoon. One Piece is a great example of that, I tried watching the dub and it ruins the entire vibe. The only dubs I've seen that aren't so bad they detract from the source material are One Punch Man, Attack on Titan, FMA and My Hero Academia.

2024-05-05 00:34:27 +0000 UTCMaple, so beautiful but in love with Arianna! Lol. Yall, this was a great reaction! Lol. Third time watching but watching along with you two was great! Lol. Love the content Chad and ladies
Zech
2024-05-04 22:52:25 +0000 UTCyes please! do a longer discussion!

2024-05-04 22:38:01 +0000 UTCTo me Stilgar (Paul’s hype man) is such an interesting character in this movie. At first he is played for laughs with his “as written” but when Paul first rides the worm, you can see the religious fervor in his eyes and you can tell from that moment on he would do anything for Paul in a very bad way. It’s scary for me to see given some current events in the world👀
Julian Avila
2024-05-04 21:39:44 +0000 UTCMaple: "I want to ride your worm"--I almost spit out my coffee on the keyboard!!!! LMFAO. jeez, these two are absolute fire when they get together to react!!!!
Chris Bruneau
2024-05-04 19:05:33 +0000 UTCImo I'd say the dubbed is better, but hey ho it's all personal preference. Probably better for anyone new to anime to watch the dubbed though otherwise it can be a little overwhelming
T.wiley
2024-05-04 18:56:30 +0000 UTCAbsolutely. If they do watch it I hope they watch the Japanese version, the acting is so much better than the English version
Jesse S
2024-05-04 18:25:17 +0000 UTCHave either of them seen attack on Titan or has it been mentioned yet on the channel? Would be a great watch when we eventually got to it
