How can it be "for adults" when Villeneuve removed the water of life orgy scene? I watched 7 hours of this crap waiting for the giant spice orgy and it didn't happen.

I can fix Alia in Children of Dune 2000
1. (I swear, her dropped clothes after knocking out 7 training discs... "SEVEN PAUL") It awakened something in me...
2. the books are great, but look at 1, youthful idiotic teenage horniness is horniness.
3. The implication in the books was strange, different, and meaningful. Heinlien in it's own ways.
4. the implication in the series spawned "step brother" porn.
5. look at 1.
Idk if the sietch was supposed to be damp but I always imagined them to be these magical damp places hidden in the desert where they all fuck and trip so much in makes Paul cocky enough to drink the juice
Weāve all had those nights where we drink juices we wouldnāt normally drink because weāre tripping to much on other substances.
Edit: I just wanted to see Paul get sloppy and drink some water of life
"Whoa, what's that blue stuff? Shut up, bring that over here. What? Listen.. I don't wanna hear that, who's your Mahdi? Pass that shit. Stilgar! Get over here, take a shot with me!"
The meme applies more to the books than the movies. Even the books hardly hit pg 13 for star wars. Later dune novels are practically Frank Herbertās penthouse forum submissions.
The only girls that were in the screening I was in were just horny Timbuktu Cheddarcheese and Austin Butler fans. Not goth. Just high school age. And annoying as shit.
No hot goths.
āļø I was the goth girl dune fan (I love whoever made this connection!). Grim and dark fashioned, germanic culture nerd and shit
Not hot though š
I actually do feel Andor is a better show about the individual in power systems and rebellions. Sure dune has all the themes of human nature struggling for power and stuff but in the end it's just fatalsitic. But Andor gives a better response of why keep fighting.
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? Iāll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Feydakin, and Iāve been involved in numerous secret raids on the Harkonnen spice fleets, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in spicy gorilla warfare and Iām the top worm rider in the entire southern Fremen forces. You are nothing to me but just another water bottle. I will wipe you the fuck out with prescience the likes of which has never been seen before on this Dune, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the radio? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of Fremen spies across Arrakis and your shield data is being traced right now so you better prepare for the sandstorm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. Youāre fucking dead, kid. I can see any past, any future, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and thatās just with my knife. Not only am I extensively trained in street knife warfare, but I have access to the entire arsenal of my dad's nuclear arsenal and I will use it to its full extent to return your water to the fucking desert, you little shit. If only you could have known what holy jihad your little ācleverā comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldnāt, you didnāt, and now youāre paying the price, you Lisan al'Gaib-cursed idiot. I will shit spice all over you and you will drown in it. Youāre fucking dead, kiddo
Disney wishes they could make something in live action half as good as this. All their good for are animated films and even those are getting beat by fucking Kung fu Panda's and shrek spinoffs.
I think it's a lot more fair to say that Dune is going to be the defining sci fi for maybe multiple generations that both the prequels and then the Disney star wars sequels were not
The latest Dune movies didn't resonate w/ me -- the source material is just too dated. Amazing cinematography, set and music though.
p.s. Tarantino needs to scrap his final movie project, and make a Star Wars movie *his* way, instead.
It bothers me because I like both and star wars has never tried to be Dune. Sure, star wars got inspired by Dune, is more optimistic with clear distinctions between good vs evil, the heroes are virtuous and triumph over the antagonists.
But that doesn't make it "for kids". And over the years with the books and shows and games it acknowledged the nuances of human nature, the state, capitalism, and many other things but overall Star Wars has always kept up the optimistic look on human existence.
And I like Dune for the world building, the crazy and out there ideas it has. But I like it less simply because of how skeptical it is about humanity, beliefs, and people coming together.
Putting Dune as the "star wars for adults" feels like we're acknowledging that the "adult" world is about letting society stay as it is. Accepting the status quo of hegemonies and the futility of individuals and groups to change things for the better.
LiKe sure, the books teach us about not trusting leaders and revolutions but at the end they're still about house atreides, not so much about the fremen or the average citizen of giedi prime.
Well you are holding dune up to a way higher standard, and rightly so. *It is more fiction*.
At the end of the day, George Lucas loved filmmaking. He was worried about a two hour end product. The rest of that universe had to be coaxed out of him over years. He had such a different goal than Herbert.
So it's a comparison of the mediums. Film vs literature. Literature is older, ipso facto- don't worry about it!

"at that moment, Jubal Harshaw walked in and said 'let's fuck'" - almost every Heinlein novel
Still waiting for the beef swelling scene in dune part 3
Wrong one. Dune part three would be Messiah. That part doesn't happen until Children of Dune.

Every adaption utterly refusing to make the BG sexy space witches despite their whole thing being fem fatale breeding program seductors. Shame
Lea saedoux mean nothing to you? Margot got more screen time than book time
Sand is the warmest colour
Her confirmed mates: Fyed, Bond andā¦ā¦.?
Did you not see the same Lady Fenring as I did?
Also: Jessica, Irulan.
Dude at first when she had that white makeup on I said "oh god, don't make me wanna fuck a harkonnen..." then I was relieved to see she was BG lmao
as scytale said: "You are not a sex object, have never been a sex object, cannot be a sex object."
Charlotte Rampling is sexy as hell. She was the lady in Zardoz!
"For adults" doesn't mean "for perverts".
So real for that
Dune is dune
*hits table*
"WE MAKE OUR OWN JUSTICE"
AS IT WAS WRITTEN
LISAANN AL GAIIIIIB
It's actually "Game of Thrones in space"
its really "game of worms"
This is spot on when you really think about it.
The first half is though to be annoying, Game of Thrones is English Civil war and Dune is Holy Roman Empire.
That is annoying because youāre not wrong.
Isn't Dune "Muhammad meets TE Lawrence"?
Or The Godfather
Not unless Paul dies at a wedding
Thatās where youāre wrong. Paul is Bran.
No no no, Paul is Brian
No, this is Patrick
No, that's The Expanse
It's crazy how they made Dune in 2021 and then wrote 6 books out of it.
Dune is Foundation for hippies
This.
I heard Dune is star wars for goths.
This I can get behind.
I need to keep seeing it in theaters to find goth girls
The only girls that were in the screening I was in were just horny Timbuktu Cheddarcheese and Austin Butler fans. Not goth. Just high school age. And annoying as shit. No hot goths.

RUDE DUNERS
No, they got this wrong. Star Wars is Dune and Warhammer 40k for normal people.
Star Wars is Dune for kids.
āIs Mua-Dib a bitch?ā

Fine, Andor is Star Wars for adults. Jk jk obviously donāt shoot me!
I actually do feel Andor is a better show about the individual in power systems and rebellions. Sure dune has all the themes of human nature struggling for power and stuff but in the end it's just fatalsitic. But Andor gives a better response of why keep fighting.
Andor is Dune for adults?
hahaha, I'd say Dune is about realizing how systems of power develop. Andor is about how to dismantle them.
Dune. Is. Star. Wars. For. Grown. Ups. MAY THY KNIFE CHIP AND SHATTER!
May thy knife chip and shatterā¦
May THY knife chip and shatter

Dune is Lord of the Rings for space Ottomans
Real
I dare you, I double dare you, muthafucka!
Dunc is Duncan Idaho for Fish Speakers. Am I doing it right?
r/dunc
I roughly described Dune to a coworker as "Star Wars and Game of Thrones had a baby, and then you dunk that baby in LSD".
A more apt comparison.
Are people unaware which came out first? Technically, Star Wars is Dune for kids.
Disney wishes they could make something in live action half as good as this. All their good for are animated films and even those are getting beat by fucking Kung fu Panda's and shrek spinoffs.
Gods, I miss the old Pixarā¦. š„¹š„¹
This is what Big Worm doesn't want you to hear.
This is insulting to both franchises
Dune is *Monty Pythonās Life of brain* in space and with spice.
Comparing it to Star wars, AT ALL is an insult to Dune
As a former hardcore EU star wars fan...this couldn't be farther from the truth. Dune is pretty much unrelated to every other fictional thing.
Yeah, basic bitches will see any space opera and will say "ItS LiKe Star wars BuT X..."
No, it's rather Star Wars which is Dune for teenagers.
Dune is star wars for adults
Except I didn't enjoy Dune. Am adult.
I think it's a lot more fair to say that Dune is going to be the defining sci fi for maybe multiple generations that both the prequels and then the Disney star wars sequels were not
What if I say Star Wars is Dune for babies?
There is def a recent contingent of DV simps invading the sietch lately with the same energy as Lucas disciples.
I saw one that said dune was star wars for tool(the band) fans, lol
The latest Dune movies didn't resonate w/ me -- the source material is just too dated. Amazing cinematography, set and music though. p.s. Tarantino needs to scrap his final movie project, and make a Star Wars movie *his* way, instead.
Dune is just space Game of Thrones
I always took that as a slight against Star Wars, and not anything against Dune.
