I've seen a lot of people (mostly men if that's a factor) focus on how Chani was heart broken by Paul choosing Irulan. Am I the only one that thinks she's mostly upset that he's lost himself, is embracing/using the prophecy and waging war? She definitely cries as she summons the worm and is quiet and alone but in the room she's angry and staunch and doesn't bow to him. Their conversation about him not wanting to lose himself or lose her before they left for the South felt very important. Maybe I'm misinterpreting but I definitely felt like it was more nuanced and deeper than her just being his love interest. I think Zendaya and Denis made some really cool and powerful changes to her character.

Well, I didn't love absolutely everything about Dune Part II, but I did love itty bitty Alia. Enough to make a whole new blog and name it after her. Also, I didn't have a Dune blog before. Here is where I shall put all my Dune post/reblogs from now on, I reckon. Even though I will probably always and forever continue to put EVERYTHING on main as well.

this feels canon to me

Paul: here’s to the love of my life, my soulmate, my heart of 5000 years, the mother of my legacy!

everyone on Arrakis: ….

Paul: and then here’s to my wife, Irulan

IM SO FUCKING EXCITED FOR SPACE CRIME: IMPERIALISM METAPHOR FOR WESTERN EXPLOITATION OF OTHER COUNTRIES THE MOVIE

You guys don’t understand. He’a good and he’s evil. He’s a white savior. He’s a genetically engineered bioweapon spreading a false religion. His mere existence creates a religious fervor that culminates in a relentless jihad across the galaxy as millions are killed. He’s tortured by the unavoidable knowledge that he cannot control the genocide committed in his own name. His influence lasts millennia and culminates in his only son becoming a horrific worm god king man who abolishes incarceration and rules on sheer religious extremism alone. By saving the Fremen from their oppression and terraforming Dune into a paradise he undermines their entire cultural foundation of water scarcity via white saviorism. He’ll become a shell. His son will become a horror. The Fremen will become a ruined remnant of what they once were. All in the name of Muad’dib.

Guess who finally watched Dune Part II :D

!SPOILERS!

Ya'll, this movie sigle-handedly made me realize again just how much I love movies. It was so fucking awesome. Every littel Part about it

Let's start with the acting. And Oh boy, Every single actor and actress did their job perfectly. Everything felt so real. The Moment Paul drank the Water of Life??? You could literally see how he changed, how he embraced the fact that he is the Lissan Al-Gaib, the acting was literally perfect. And then there is freaking Austin Butler

This man has portrayed Feyd-Rautha so perfectly. When I read the Book, that was literally how I imagined him, it was awesome

Talking of Feyd-Rautha, the fight scene between him and Paul??? It was so good, my jaw literallly dropped when I saw it. The moment they stabbed each other being a reference to Part I where Gurney and Paul trained together, just chefs kiss.

Also, hear me out on Lady Jessica. I was so exited to see her become the Sayyadina. That transition from being a loving Mother to an Almost cult-like religous leader that pushes Paul into a direction of her wishes. It was portrayed beautifully. Let alone her character and Costume design. It was breathtaking.

Another thing that really blew my mind again, was the Soundtrack. Seriously, who let Hans Zimmer cook this hard?? The Soundtrack was literally one of the reasons I was so exited for Part II and was not dissapointed.

Let's also not forget the Scene where Paul rode on Shai Hulud for the first time. My jaw was literally on the Floor the entire Time. That was also one of the scenes, I was most exited for and man, I wanted to stand up and clap after it because it was so fucking awesome. The fact alone that the Fremen ride on the Sandworms has me giddy like a little kid.

And of course, the End, the beginning of the holy war. I must admit, I have not read past the first Book yet, but I am most exited to start now and I really hope that the Franchise gets continued. The final scenes just had so much power in them, you could almost feel the tension in the air, with Paul becoming the Emporer and leading the Fremen into battle. It was just mind-blowing.

As a long term reader of Dune (I have read up till Heretics of Dune), it warms my heart to see the words Bene Gesserit and Kwisatz Haderach now being used by many more people around the world, and people walking into zoos' kangaroo mouse / jerboa habitats and going Muad'Dib.

Meanwhile, I also hope that in spite of the similarities - ie house versus house and politics - Dune is not A Song of Ice and Fire. There is a poignant difference, while ASOIAF was historical fantasy fiction, while Dune is a massively, sprawling story across not just years and kingdoms, but millenia and galaxies. Additionally, Dune is Herbert's nuanced attempt at tracing the possibilities of not only human exploration and colonisation of non-Earth planets outside of the Milky Way Galaxy, but also a tracking of how human history, politics, religion, cultures and languages would grow and converge and diverge and develop over time. You will see the characters speaking in variations of Arabic, of French, of English, of course - and with vestiges of Latin and Hebrew. The religion is a converged and developed mixture of Buddhism, Catholicism variants and Buddhism; you see Hadith being referenced, you see Bible books being referenced.

BOOK SPOILERS AHEAD ------

------------------------------------

Dune: Messiah is one of my favourite books because there is Duncan Idaho, there is Chani and the twins, Paul's blinding and sight at first and then the emotional pain of Chani's loss making him lose that sight, and then Paul walking away into the desert. Alia Atriedes, Jessica leaving in full realisation of the horrors she has unleashed and so damn much. And Paul being increasingly aware of the Tleilaxu plots.

It probably goes without saying but rewatching Dune 1 makes watching Dune 2 so much more rewarding because you notice all these little parallels between the 2 movies and how these moments are recontextualised after Paul's character journey through the Arrakis deserts. Much have been said about this topic already but I thought I'd list the parallels I found too:

"Father, I've found my way"

In Part 1, Paul shares his worries with Leto that he might not become the heir Leto hopes he would be, to which Leto says that he believes Paul will find his own way when he is called to lead. When Paul says this line in Part 2, he has made the decision to embrace the title of the Lisan Al Gaib. Obviously his late father would never have imagined his son leading a Fremen army against the Emperor as his "way to lead". Ironically though, he has inherited and executed far more successfully the same strategy his father aimed for: form an alliance with the Fremen and harness desert power against the other Houses and the Emperor himself.

"I recognised your footsteps"

Paul says this to Gurney in the training room, the first time they interact onscreen. It shows how familiar they are with each other. Gurney also raises the point that in battle, an enemy may imitate his stride. When Paul says this line in Part 2 they meet each other on the battlefield. Ironically, Paul recognising his footsteps is what saves Gurney from the Fremen's knives. (Also, it's worth pointing out that the first time Paul has a vision in the desert in Part 1, he utters this line too as Gurney comes up behind him. It's a direct parallel to when they meet each other in the deserts in Part 2.)

A frame-by-frame parallel between Paul and Chani on the battlefield

At the 1:38:55 mark, when Paul has his first vision of the Holy War, we are shown a snippet of Paul fighting alongside his army in the battlefield. He flips over several enemies as he decimates them and rises up, taking his helmet/mask off to reveal his blue-within-blue eyes. There's a shot for shot parallel of Chani doing the same thing on the battlefield in their assault on the Harkonnen's Arrakeen fortress in the last act of Part 2.

"The Emperor has no sons. His daughters have yet to marry."

This is less a parallel and more foreshadowing. Actually it's not even foreshadowing, this is the film telegraphing exactly what Paul's plan will be in Part 2: marrying Irulan to make a play for the throne. The fact that he still decides to go through with this plan, a strategy that belongs to imperial court politics and not among the Fremen fedaykin that he's come to represent in Part 2, despite the life he builds with Chani and his total assimilation into Fremen ways and customs, shows just how much his transformation into Muad'dib has and hasn't changed his path towards total dominion over the Known Universe.

"May thy knife chip and shatter."

Both films end on a duel with many parallels between the 2 duels. Part 1 ends with a fight where Jamis challenges Paul & Jessica on their place and acceptance among the Fremen. Paul volunteers as his mother's champion in this duel, just as Feyd-Rautha volunteers as the Emperor's champion in the duel for the throne at the end of the second film. In Part 1, Jamis says the famous Fremen 'battle cry' (so to speak) to Paul. By the end of Part 2, Paul who has fully assimilated into the Fremen's ways says the line to Feyd. Despite all that has changed about Paul though, he still does the Atreides salute (knife raised against his forehead) before the fight with Feyd-Rautha, just as he does in his duel with Jamis.
