Timby posted:I believe it's been confirmed that Feyd is not in Part 1. That's ridiculous if true. I saw one report that Tye Sheridan was temporarily listed before it was quickly removed from IMDB. I've seen other speculation that they are trying to keep it under tight wraps. With Sting playing him in one rendition.....and Mick Jagger supposedly set to play him in the 70's Jodorowski version.....that they want it to be a surprise.

He's the Baron's heir and a large part of the plan devised in the first part of the book. I'd think that Rabban would be the one who could be absent for the first movie.....not that it really makes sense for either to be. I'm I off base here?

a real adaptation of dune for our time should definitely play up the appeal of the fremen way of life where simplicity and connection to nature has both mystical meanings based on the place of humanity in their environment and scientific meaning in their long term ecological terraforming project so yeah give us like two solid hours of paul and jessica being fremen

I've started to think maybe the hardest part of adapting Dune is the action. So much of the imagery requires epic scale, insane visuals, etc., but then you get to the way fights work and everything turns into a kung-fu scene where multiple characters are making decisions in a tenth of a second and someone kicks someone so hard that they die instantly. Honestly this is the thing I'm most worried about with Villeneuve's version... has he ever really tackled a fight scene like this? The brief glimpses of melee combat we've seen in the trailers have felt kind of basic to me, and I think it will lose a lot if the punching and sword fighting feels generic and sterile rather than visceral and crucial to revealing the way the characters think.

Obviously hasn’t stopped millions from reading it but it is nonetheless I played the Westwood Studios game Dune 2000 when I was a kid, and it had all the art direction from the Lynch movie combined with Command and Conquer gameplay and full motion video briefings with a bunch of the same actors. I had zero trouble reading Dune after I played that game haha

Assuming Part 2 is made, I'd agree with you that this is a great way to do it. Keeping in mind what we know about Part 1, it seems like we're going to see the Harkonnens really wreck poo poo and basically win at the conclusion of the film. I'm super stoked to see them show us all that insane stuff going on with them once they've established what villains they are

Just wish they wouldn't pronounce it Harka-Nin. It sounds soft af. HarKONEN is way better. (It's also how Frank said it.)

(Yes, I know there was a sizzle reel for it. And it's a crying shame we didn't get a film or three out of it.)

deoju posted:What happens to her? Or what does she do? I can't remember. Becomes possessed by the Baron as the result of her undergoing spice agony in the womb, and kills herself in a moment of clarity. Frank Herbert had a lot of trouble writing women who weren't Lady Jessica. He strongly idealized other women (saving him from misogyny through an ultimately essentialist conception of women as morally superior to men), making me suspect that Jessica is on some level a pastiche of his mother and his wife. Or more broadly, of women in his life he was able to conceptualize as equals without putting them on a pedestal. e: Actually, thinking of the sheer variety of interacting Lady Jessicas in the later (post God Emperor) books, and there being a few whole books with only one male PoV character in an environment dominated by these powerful women, I kind of suspect Herbert was raised in a similar environment.
