Nobody ever pays me in Florence Pugh
If I had to settle for Florence Pugh, I feel like things wouldn’t be too bad.
Would she do the sarcastic Yelena accent from Black Widow, though? I’m torn between whether the sarcasm is sexy, funny, or absolutely the best accent to sarcastically read all the world news, and maybe sarcastically is just how I need my news from now on.
If you’re going to quote something, at least don’t screw up the quote.

That Wonka prequel sure did get weird.
I apologize if this has already been addressed. What is the movie on the left?
little women (2019)
I think it’s Little Women but I could be wrong
That woman looks relatively appropriate sized
This stupid comment made me laugh so fucking much. Thank you.
Love you too boo
Is it a coincidence or is it the sort of old fashioned pairing like Rock Hudson and Doris Day, Claudette Colbert and Clark Gable, or William Powell and Myrna Loy?
I’m going to say it’s the latter regardless because I think that’s a tradition that should have continued.
man’s juliette
Wow. Thanks a bunch for that spoiler. Really thoughtful, dick.
I mean the book has been out for 59 years…
More importantly, you can know this and it still won’t spoil the movie. If your knowledge of Dune is only the first movie, then whatever you think this detail means is probably wrong.
Worm God told me to spoil.
Ok, good to know, thanks. I forgive OP.
wait till you find out what happens to Paul’s son.
Who, Leto or Leto?
Baba ab ababab shhhhhh
Spoilers!
Thanks for ruining the movie idiot
Ah yes, romance, the biggest part of Dune plots
Dune is two love stories; Leto and Jessica, and Paul and Chani. Without Jessica’s betrayal of the Bene Gesserit because of her love for Leto there wouldn’t be a story. Or at least not this story.
3 love stories. The third is between a worm and his spice.
Four? Dr. Yueh’s live for his wife produced the betrayal of the Atreides.
But I stan the Worm/Spice ship.
Fifth. Later in the novels you have ghola Duncan’s weird, kinky love/hate relationship with Murbella.
Jessica’s betrayal of the Bene Gesserit
is it a betrayal, or did she do exactly what was meant to happen and made it so the kwanzaa hashden was produced at exactly the right generation, that even the mothers superior didn’t see coming?
The book covered this. Jessica was supposed to have borne a daughter who would have been paired with Feyd Rautha to produce the Kwisatz Haderach. Paul was a wildcard who was outside the Bene Gesserit control - remember when the Reverend Mother was angry that Jessica was teaching Paul BG secrets? The BG had Lady Fenring seduce Feyd to maintain the bloodline in case they wanted to have another crack at it.
Spoiler: they did not want another crack at it by the time Leto II was done with them.
Right, but I’m saying that Leto 2 (or 3) is the kaketown homeboy because he saw the golden path , turned into a worm and ruled for a bajillennium.
Edit: and the Benelux confederation suck because they didn’t realise this.
I’m pretty sure there can be more than one, in the books it talks about how others tried too. Sounded like the Bene Tleilax had at least one.
that’s a good point
kwanzaa hashden
💀
kwanzaa hashden
lol i assume autocorrect fail?
Nope, I made a joke on purpose because I didn’t want to look up how to spell kornfed hashbrowns. It’s a made up word.
All words are made up.

Hearing all these weird words and jihad references since the film was released has considerably curbed my enthusiasm about seeing it.
nah, dune sucks because it’s basically a feudalism simp and a story about space power plays. It’s basically game of thrones but in a space desert instead of a frozen wasteland.
the film kicks ass because it combines a kickass soundtrack with (mostly) cool visuals.
Though I remember Dune 1 being better on that front than Dune 2, the visuals and music seemed fresher and more varied; the sequel re-used too many things, and the tripping balls sequences did not go hard enough. I wanted to see Paul and his mum actually trip balls as the pierced the veil of time, not a few cutaways here and there.
TL;DR : treat it like nightmare before christmas or something, check it out as an audiovisual experience.
EDIT : the jihad references are before the increase in islamic terrorism, Frank Herbert just based a lot of the stuff off arabian culture because he wanted it to match the desert feel. Jihad just means struggle.
Kwisatz Bacharach
🎵What do you get when you drown a worm? You get enough spice to make a Kwisatz .🎶 🎶 But is it enough to be last batch I-I-I don’t want run outta spi-i-ice I don’t want to lose the spice🎵
Spoilers for a 59 year old book
Florence Pugh was in the book as well? I have to read it again at some point.
She’s the narrator
Didn’t sound like her when I read it
Try looking into that place that you dare not look. You’ll find her there, staring back at you.
Liar, Florence wasn’t behind that one shelf I never moved off the wall because there’s so much dust (and probably spiders) behind it :(
Tbf this isn’t really a spoiler per say in the way you think it is
per say
And a bone apple tea to you too!
Holy shit til per se thanks!
Riddle me this Batman, In Dune Messiah, who is the mother of Paul’s kids Leto and Ghanima?
Thanks for ruining that book too. I didn’t even know Batman was in it
Batman is one of the ancestors Alia is talking to, but that will first be made clear in Children of Dune 🤫
technically the wedding/marriage is not even in the movie.
