Tony Stark is just a pez dispenser that says witty Whedonisms. If his character's "development" is being a recovering alcoholic with a fusion reactor in his chest, well, I don't think there's any point in pretending he's anything but a rocket that shoots smaller rockets. Then again, I can't compare anything to Denis V.'s stuff because I have seen absolutely none of it.

Yeah, Dune isn't at all a character study. None of the characters really have personalities beyond how they act and react to the plot, and their ability to problem solve. The ones that do have personalities are basically presented as zealots or insane people, or we're told that they're heroic but never shown any evidence of it. Concept and intrigue is really all we really care about.

@D-n---th-r in one sentence: "gently caress you, dad!!!!" in a 17 book series (I think I might have gotten the idea from this thread, in which case I won't apologize because I'm just following the theme of ripping off a predecessor's work.)

duneauthor seems less "gently caress you dad" and more "I dedicated my life to emulating the man I see as a deity"coupled with a surface-level understanding of his dad's works

I've only read one of his books but turning famous ancestors and animals mentioned in his dad's books into robots and poo poo is so laughably idiotic I don't know where to start.

How about those deathstills then? Do Fremen drink the blood of their enemies? Or do they actually have some kind of device that takes purified water out of corpses and leaves behind all the biological bits? Is the spice just worm poop? What other things that get danced around in the novels are probably very gross and depraved?

Did any of the fremen's enemies ever try to send contaminated soldiers against them? I could imagine the Harkonnens and/or Sardaukar poisoning some of their own troops in the hopes of contaminating the water reserves.

I assumed this wouldn't work because of the stills evaporating the water and leaving behind anything else. (Granted with actual distilling it's a little more complicated than that but we're talking sci-fi tech here so I just assume there's ways around having to throw away potentially contaminated portions)

Fremen feet probably look like burnt hangar steaks. They probably jerk off to videos of offworlder water fat harkonnen feet.
