Why was Zendaya's acting just :C

At that time, this world had a Fremen name... Dune

No it was kind of cringe.

Eventually you realize that Dune is just an anime in novel format. Any story that involves some kiddo turning into a magic superhero is fucking garbage.

The edge is off the charts.

It was. Objectively the best sci-fi pics since BR2049 (by the same director).

I really like how they shot the scene in the first one with the hag doing the test with the box, emphasizing her yelling "silence" at him so it rhymes with this
both are from the book but neither are directly depicted to be call-backs

Finally, after all these years, I've become Denis Villeneuve's Dunc 2 (2024)

I like the subtlety of Brolin's Gurney. He is clearly blood thirsty and gets giddy in watching these natives getting riled up. On the other hand, Barden's Stilgar is off. Matrix' Morhpeus is a zealot, too, but at no point he's a comic comic relief. People straight up LOLed at some Stilgar's line when I saw it in cinema

Shieeeet

I didn't care too much about Dune 1 but 2 was really good.

Bull.

Dune is good, alright, but it is subpar to BR2049 or Sicario to a point it makes wonder other Villenave films were not mostly carried by Deakins. I do say second Dune is IMO significantly better than the first one.

I enjoyed one more because I thought it was going to become a rebel revenge movie not a “and so I became the god emperor lul” crap.

This scene where he addresses the Fremen was genuinely really good and made me reconsider my opinion of lil timmy c as an actor. Too bad the rest of the changes to the plot ruined the movie.

Second Dune is crap. It leaves out way too much. No spice orgy. No murdered kid. No guild navigator (I don’t give a FUCK if they’re supposed to appear later). All crap.

This scene where he addresses the Fremen was genuinely really good

Nah it was annoying. Only retarded sand people could find that cool. In real life no one would bat an eye to him. The zealot aspect is retarded and it just reinforces shit like shariah law. No wonder so many Muslims love the movie.

2 picks up when lil timmy stops being a bitch

I always said that the best way to adapt it would be to let someone in Japan make it into an anime.

is this the scene where zendaya kind of just shuffles around pouting and smacks her lips?

In real life

Autism. Bless your soul.

Any story that involves some kiddo turning into a magic superhero is fucking garbage

man goes to see Hamlet at the theatre, comes out dissapointed and says "it's been done"
many such cases

Speaking of Deakins, I think what people dislike about the movies on here has to do with the cinematography. Greig Fraser's style is too naturalistic. Deakins has different sensibilities and makes every shot stand out.

I’m serious. Humans have a massive age bias. They won’t listen to a kid.

Kyle Machlachan did it better. Chalamet sounded like an angsty teen.

Jesus was only 30 when he began his ministry

30 is a lot better than 17. 30 is a good age.

That scene in IMAX was pretty cool, the sub frequencies felt as if the Voice literally pushed everyone in the audience in that very moment

Jesus was also a bearded hippie who acted older/wiser than he was. Paul is just an angry angsty teenager appealing to violent sand people, and even his girlfriend (movie version only) knows how dumb this is.

Jesus was only 30 when he began his ministry

That was an old man back then.

And sci-fi crack junkies that suffer for eons being fed propaganda about the messiah dropping "any moment" have other biases than you.
So again, blessed be on the spectrum.

Timothée Chalamet is 29

Lynch´s Dune > Villeneuve Dunc

Simple as.

Half a century ago, a 30-year-old man would be considered a mature, fully functional member of society, not to mention thousands of years ago. Now, being that age doesn't mean shit—personality-wise, you're basically a child. What year is Dune set in?

There were legit gasps in that moment the first time I watched it at the cinema lol

Kek not even he liked the movie

You've never read a book in your life, have you?

no lol, cope harder

20,000 years from now, 10,191-10,193 AG.

Lynch was more turned off by the shit Dino pulled on him than the actual movie.
I mean the fact that it is Alan Smithee's only directors cut should tell you all you need to know.

The character he plays is 17. He’s also a dipshit pretty boy.

scene will NEVER feel the same without the IMAX ratio and the fucking sound system shattering your soul

Harry Potter is also anime.

This speech was great, I didn't really buy Chalamet as Paul before it, but he sold me. Him yelling Silence at that Bene Gesserit was the best moment though

In the movie it wasn't conveyed properly. In the book there are passages that state the Fremen have been secretly manipulated through religion in case one of the BG would have to find shelter on their planet, which is how Jessica earns the trust of the Fremen handmaiden. However, there is a greater, unnamed force at play that has further twisted the prophecy to include Paul as the Fremen saviour and he slips into that role with suspicious ease. It's mentioned that he then continues to earn their trust and respect, even admiration time and time again and the scene in the book/movie is the culminating moment where he carefully takes them over not just as a Fremen but also as the son of Leto Atreides (an "outsider" in the eyes of the Fremen yet official steward of the planet appointed by the Emperor)
