In an interview with Hans, he said that he was so inspired by the vision for the first movie that he continued to Zimmer for the IP even after the first movie was released and before they had a confirmation on a part 2 greenlight. Denis would even tell him to stop zimmerming around but Hans just ignored and kept zimmerming..
I like how with the last shot, Chani is experiencing all these emotions at once and almost sheds a tear, but she keeps herself from doing so. It's like Stilgar told Jessica: "Do not give up your water, not even for the dead."
The ending was heartbreaking. This music only made the tears more bitter. I think Denis made the right move being faithful to Herbert's vision of an anti-hero.
It left out a lot of the nuances of Paul and Jessicas character, but I understand why because of the limits of cinema. At its heart it captures the tragedy of Dune and the prophecy.
I have been a Dune fanatic since I was 13 and honestly, what they did with Chani at the end of this movie is brilliant. Messiah is going to be very interesting to see
@@crunchbuttsteak8741 After at least a second viewing, I was able to understand the depth and complexity he added to Chani. Especially in light of what he had to excise and condense to convey the overall tragic point of the tale. It makes me curious and excited to see how he handles those character dynamics in the next one.
Knowing Hans Zimmer, He's probably already written the music for Messiah and I think the ending for Paul and Chani will be some of the greatest piece of work we have ever heard.
@@theprowler18 Obviously, he needed someone to be the voice of reason in this movie, so even the dumbest viewer could understand that Paul is not some sort of hero. Chani was the only option from the main cast.
And then when Jessica tells Alia the holy war begins and we see the Fremen all load up in ships ready to fly off-planet and begin their holy conquest… absolute chills
Slight correction in my eyes, I've won, but at what future cost?, He see the future, he knows how many billions will die in his name. The beauty and the horror.
A propos of lost/won or the reverse - please listen to this one, also from Zimmer, from the "Rush" movie - in my opinion also a very touching vibe! Epic movie too. ruclips.net/video/VJUO_l7vNx4/видео.html&ab_channel=rushsoundtrack
1:29 Watching the Fedaykin legions march to the ships with the Atreides banner waving in the background and Stilgar full-on fanatically chanting Lisan al-Gaib in the middle of it all... Just both epic & tragic. The Jihad begins.
I know Frank Herbert wrote Dune before George Lucas made Star Wars movies and Dune Part One and Part Two are way better than all the Star Wars movies combined, but Dune: Part Two’s ending reminds me of Attack of The Clones’ ending when all the spaceships start flying heading to war. I love both scenes. I love Dune: Part Two. I love Denis Villeneuve.
@@toasterroast7678 But I get what they meant. I also had that reference in my head when I saw it but was like, oh, this is what George was going for but here it works.
The final 10 minutes was like a shakespearean esque masterpiece. The direction, the acting, the writing, the cinematography and score was just out of this world!!!

@lucasdasilva23 Going south marks the moment when Paul stops struggling against what has to be done. It marks the beggining of his rise, ... or fall, depending on your perspective.
@@danielplainview2584very last scene. Paul forces the Emperor to kiss his ring after defeating his forces and Feyd (as the Emperor's champion for the right to rule the Empire). When the music swells is when Chani leaves and rides a sandworm alone, she doesn't believe in Paul being their Messiah and thinks its a lie to control them. Paul offered to marry the Emperor's daughter which Chani was obviously upset about.
I cry so hard when this whole scene happens, in one hand because I was very happy to be alive and been able to see such work of art, but in the other hand, that final look between Paul and Chani, I cannot, even writing this I want to cry again.
You can tell in Chani's eyes that she felt betrayed by Paul's offering to marry princess urulan for the throne, and you can in Paul's eyes that he's hurt after Chani leaving him behind because of it, he didn't want this because he have no choice he transformed into Lisan al-Gaib

@@Foxtrot5also when they kiss. I felt like when they first kissed it was a beautiful song but felt a bit bittersweet until I heard it again in the ending and I understood why I felt the way I did
Hans Zimmer’s music scores will do that to ppl his music in classic films bring so much emotions like he did in Last Samurai, Pearl Harbor, gladiator, Interstellar , inception, Dark Knight Trilogy, and now of course DUNE
What’s so deeply saddening is that we’re introduced to this theme, Paul and Chani’s theme, as they begin to build a relationship and find love in one another. Yet in a short moment, that relationship is undone through Paul’s action. It’s beautifully tragic
2:45 Last scene of Charni eyes holding back the tear just exactly what Stilgar taught her blows my mind.Same time there Charni calls a worm knowing Paul is gone and in her emotional state she now understands that its herself and her people are gearing up for war .That ending broke me to bits I was shaking from start to finish.
Well, the power-greedy McBeth and Richard III die at the end of the plays, while Paul Atreides goes on living, and kills lots of people. Like how Paul in later books loses his eyes, but yet sees further than anyone can see because of prophetic abilities, just like the ancient greek prophets and bards.
He was ballsy enough to risk cornballing the whole score by anchoring so much of it around ethnic singing (and it ruled), but then dude doubles down and drops big bonking christmas bells on the most intense emotional beat of the movie and absolutely crushes it. Zimmer is goated
I love how from one perspective they sound like christmas bells, signifying the birth of the Fremen "Messiah", and from another perspective they're funeral bells, warning of the death of countless innocents in the wake of the Jihad.
I really felt that shivering lips of Chani in the last shot. She is really the critical distance to the horrifiy things that are happening / what Paul unleashes. Villeneuve and Spaihts did a immensely important job in expanding and changing Chani's character and acting.
Very much so. I really appreciate the fact that Villenevue understands the nature of what Dune is communicating about the horror of false messiahs and radical fundamentalism taking root in a people. The corruption and uncontrollable nature of power.
I disagree. There were other ways they could've shown the atrocities that Paul unleashes, by using more dream visions of the future etc. Changing Chani's character completely feels like a huge disservice to her character. Why must she oppose Paul? Real world history is full of examples of women who stand behind their male partners committing horryfing acts, sometimes even enjoying it. Chani's character in the book is a fierce woman who is 100 % loyal to Paul, but this Chani feels more like a 15 year old annoying brat. Considering what happens later in Dune Messiah, I have a hard time seeing this film version of Chani doing those things because she is like a completely different character.
I mean i understand paul and the fremen. For one, the atreides were wipe ou and the fremen were oppresed for who know how many years. Paul might started as a false messiah but at the end he was the spark that saved humanity.
@@Jonipoon The story of Messiah will no doubt be changed as well. Villeneuve has stated a couple times that the film sought to adapt the thematic core of Dune first and foremost, not necessarily the letter. They used hindsight to streamline and make more accessible the message. Frank Herbert had issues with the novel's reception back in the day, observing that too many readers misinterpreted Paul as a hero, which inspired him to write Messiah to clear that up. Knowing this, seeking to avoid this problem in a way Herbert might had he been as prescient as his protagonist, Villeneuve and Spaihts made greater use of Chani as a critical voice, making the cruelty of Paul's destiny explicit.
While watching this in imax, I had the book in hand with me, during the ending around 2:04, I looked down at the book in hand and teared up at the thought that my favorite book was given as perfect an adaptation as I could have asked for.
@@jbvader721 to me at least they felt like changes that worked well with the film. A lot of the stuff that was removed would've either made this a 5 hour film (Thufir's arc, Leto I) or weird on the big screen (Paul's inner monologue (which was represented in the film through Chani), Alia killing the Baron).
@@AbhiramSaran yeah, Alia being an adult-smart toddler who kills her grandfather would've just looked a bit silly for the kind of tone and aesthetic Villeneuve went for.
This track was so powerful that when the credits rolled, nobody clapped, nobody talked, nobody moved an inch. There were families with kids that were talking towards the beginning of the movie, kind of joking around, even them, dead silent. After roughly 30 seconds of the credits, people started getting up, myself included, still not a word. I passed the cassier, he told me "Have a great rest of your evening." and I said the same back. That's it, Those were the only two sentences in the cinema since the first minutes of the film. Just complete silence from everyone, absolutely unforgettable experience. Probably the best theatre experience I've ever had.
Same. It was an amazing experience. I think it’s a combination of the beauty of the music combined with knowing the horrors that were about to be unleashed as per Paul’s visions becoming reality. It brings to mind complete submission to destiny, no matter how horrible it may be.
I havent been this emotionally moved by an individual track on a movie soundtrack since the final minutes of "The Bridge of Khazad-dûm" from Fellowship of the Rings. Bless you Hans Zimmer.
Saw this twice in IMAX, after the excitement, visuals, adrenaline rushes throughout the movie, the way the arc folds up at the end with this track leaves you so hollow. Like a gut punch but it makes you want to see the movie more because it is so perfect. I want to go back again and I’m not hesitating to say that.
@@themuffinloverphysicist The film was shot according to the biblical canons, so it touches the soul. Music also has notes from ancient times that are close to our soul. I think Hans Zimmer knows the secrets of the brain and what vibrations we enjoy listening to.
I think one of the main reasons why this song makes me so emotional is because the melody is so sad, it reminds me of someone weeping, (like an outburst, a quick intake of breath or a hitch, followed by another outburst… just my own internal thoughts on it) really builds to the glorious tragedy of that scene.
i dont know why the ending of this film hits so hard, i read the books i knew what was coming. yet seeing it portrayed in beautiful cinematic glory with this soundtrack playing, the ending hits like a freight train....
I'm glad they made her character so much more significant in this way, making her the voice of reason in this madness and seeing right through the ploy of the prophecy. In the book, she's just like any other believer, and Paul receives no criticism whatsoever from anyone in his entourage for anything he does, ever. Here, Chani tells him she will love him for as long as he doesn't change, that sets up a boundary between the two - one that Paul can't even promise by simply answering "I will love you for as long as I breathe", which doesn't say anything about not changing. And in the end, she doesn't feel she can be with him as he's unrecognisable from the man he once were. I suspect this was done so it's very clear for us the audience that Paul has turned for the worse, something that wasn't that super obvious to many readers of the book originally.
@@CuttingEdges If you're a book fanatic, you should know what happens in Dune Messiah. How in the world is this film version of Chani supposed to become the character from the second book?
I think this film couldn't have a more perfect ending, Fraser's cinematography and Zimmer's music are perfect, Ferguson's, Zendaya and Chalamet's performances are excellent, it has a round closure to the religious, love and political theme, but perfectly open for a 3rd part, which if it is on the same level as this 2 parts... We could be looking at the best trilogy in the history of cinema
The scene where all the Fremen shouted in unison "Lisan Al Gaib!!! Lisan Al Gaib!!" as they are loading into the Sardaukar ships to attack the Great Houses fleet in orbit is just chef kiss.
Same here! That perfect soundtrack-ending trio of "Elysium," "Honor Him," and finally "Now We Are Free" was just incredible. I also grew up sleeping to "This Land" from The Lion King and "Lasiurus" from Batman Begins in the same way, and now I'm definitely adding "A Time of Quiet Between the Storms" to the list. So many Hans Zimmer soundtracks for every mood. His stuff is just beautiful.
My father grew up on star wars, and loved everything about it. I am growing up with Dune, and am loving everything about it. Although Dune came before Star Wars, I can still see that I am following in his footsteps... "as it is written." Lol
My mom was a massive science fiction fan and she loved Dune. This song makes me think of her face, the day she departed to the great unknown. Who knows what happens when we pass, but when it’s my time to go I hope to see her on the other end. She’d have loved this movie. Love you Momma!
You wept for Paul, powerless to fight against the prophecy. You wept for Stillgar, whose faith was twisted into blind fanaticism. You wept for the billions of lives that will be burned in the coming Holy War. But most of all, you wept the tears Chani would've shed but did not. For she is Fedaykin, and her honor would not let her waste her water for tears, not even for a broken heart.
Hans is the best composers to ever live. Every piece he creates you think to yourself "This has to be his peak. How can he get better than this?". Then another movie director calls Hans, speaks three words to him then Hans just produces the most mind blowing pieces of music to every exist. The greatest off all time with nobody close behind him. I've listened to Agape - Nicholas Brittel for years now and always thought "nothing quite moves me as much as this". I think Kiss the Ring is the first exception to this.
This song perfectly portrays the ending of the movie. Heroic, expansive, and seeped in darkness. We've just witnessed the death of a boy and the birth of that universe's greatest villain.
"It’s coming. I see a holy war spreading across the universe like unquenchable fire. A warrior religion that waves the Atreides banner in my father’s name. Fanatical legions worshipping at the shrine of my father’s skull. A WAR IN MY NAME!"
I had tears in my eyes when the credits started to roll and this masterpiece was playing. I was moved to tears by what I just witnessed, one of the best movie I have ever seen in my life.
@@AlanMartinez-bj7kwNot lies. Paul loves her, truly. He’s doing what he believes he has to. To follow the Golden Path and save humanity. It is a great and terrible fate.
1:48 as someone who has been listening to Terraria calamity mod music those bells immediately tells me Paul's going to be sitting in a throne of corpses.
I’m not gonna lie, this song and the ending scene of this movie make me cry. I’m amazed at how much I ended up caring about Paul and Chani’s relationship. Her leaving him to go off into the desert they both love so much while he commits intergalactic genocide really hits a soft spot for me. And Paul seems confident he’ll have her back. Maybe she’s pregnant.
This ending is proof that you can adapt and change the ending of a book for the better. Herbert wrote Dune to highlight the danger of following a false leader/profit. His following books enforce Paul's ascension as being destructive and tragic. Having the other houses deny Paul on the spot, immediately sending the Fedaykin off to war, and having Chani leave (all of which did not happen in the first Dune book) have created one of the most haunting endings I have ever seen in a film... and paired with this song...f-me.
Diune 2 is an absolute masterpiece.... The costumes, the music, and Paul's transformation into anti-hero. The love in Paul's eyes for Chani when he said that he would love her until his last breath brought tears to my eyes. Last scene.. Chills
Lead them to Paradise. The problem with religion is that it can be used as a light to help ourselves and others to see. But just as easily, it can be used as a torch to burn others down. It's up to us to use it carefully.
That's what stings. He promised to help them fight to reclaim their home. Yet at the end, they happily leave their home to conquer the stars. Liberators turned into the new oppressors.
I was just sitting there, crying and wiping my tears with my fingers as I listen this masterpiece as the cast scene goes while everyone's leaving the theater...
this was perfectly placed right in the end of the movie. it just captures all emotion from the journey we've been through and the brand new adventure yet to begin all at once.

Lord, everytime Chani looked at Paul in this music played... masterpiece.
I really felt that shivering lips of Chani in the last shot.
She is really the critical distance to the horrifiy things that are happening / what Paul unleashes. Villeneuve and Spaihts did a immensely important job in expanding and changing Chani's character and acting.
Very much so. I really appreciate the fact that Villenevue understands the nature of what Dune is communicating about the horror of false messiahs and radical fundamentalism taking root in a people. The corruption and uncontrollable nature of power.
If I recall, it’s more that power attracts the corruptible rather than power corrupts. But otherwise completely agree
I disagree. There were other ways they could've shown the atrocities that Paul unleashes, by using more dream visions of the future etc. Changing Chani's character completely feels like a huge disservice to her character. Why must she oppose Paul? Real world history is full of examples of women who stand behind their male partners committing horryfing acts, sometimes even enjoying it. Chani's character in the book is a fierce woman who is 100 % loyal to Paul, but this Chani feels more like a 15 year old annoying brat. Considering what happens later in Dune Messiah, I have a hard time seeing this film version of Chani doing those things because she is like a completely different character.
I mean i understand paul and the fremen. For one, the atreides were wipe ou and the fremen were oppresed for who know how many years. Paul might started as a false messiah but at the end he was the spark that saved humanity.
@@Jonipoon The story of Messiah will no doubt be changed as well.
Villeneuve has stated a couple times that the film sought to adapt the thematic core of Dune first and foremost, not necessarily the letter. They used hindsight to streamline and make more accessible the message. Frank Herbert had issues with the novel's reception back in the day, observing that too many readers misinterpreted Paul as a hero, which inspired him to write Messiah to clear that up. Knowing this, seeking to avoid this problem in a way Herbert might had he been as prescient as his protagonist, Villeneuve and Spaihts made greater use of Chani as a critical voice, making the cruelty of Paul's destiny explicit.
THAT ending with THIS music was like The Dark Knight.
While watching this in imax, I had the book in hand with me, during the ending around 2:04, I looked down at the book in hand and teared up at the thought that my favorite book was given as perfect an adaptation as I could have asked for.
Even with some of the changes that were made?
@@jbvader721yes, the changes didn’t bother me
@@Moviebinger1124I'm still trying to wrap my head around it.
@@jbvader721 to me at least they felt like changes that worked well with the film. A lot of the stuff that was removed would've either made this a 5 hour film (Thufir's arc, Leto I) or weird on the big screen (Paul's inner monologue (which was represented in the film through Chani), Alia killing the Baron).
@@AbhiramSaran yeah, Alia being an adult-smart toddler who kills her grandfather would've just looked a bit silly for the kind of tone and aesthetic Villeneuve went for.
Cinematic history will remember this scene as one of the most tragically epic scenes ever filmed.
This wasn't a movie. This was real for me.Thats all i gotta say in a short sentence. No more words needed to describe a masterpiece.
relax
This track was so powerful that when the credits rolled, nobody clapped, nobody talked, nobody moved an inch. There were families with kids that were talking towards the beginning of the movie, kind of joking around, even them, dead silent.
After roughly 30 seconds of the credits, people started getting up, myself included, still not a word.
I passed the cassier, he told me "Have a great rest of your evening." and I said the same back.
That's it,
Those were the only two sentences in the cinema since the first minutes of the film.
Just complete silence from everyone, absolutely unforgettable experience.
Probably the best theatre experience I've ever had.
Same.
I’ve read the book and still I was in shock. I felt numb when I left.
Same. It was an amazing experience. I think it’s a combination of the beauty of the music combined with knowing the horrors that were about to be unleashed as per Paul’s visions becoming reality. It brings to mind complete submission to destiny, no matter how horrible it may be.
I just kept mumbling praise for it over and over walking out. I was dumbfounded.
Dude beside me let out a big sigh of relief, it was definitely out of awe and being overwhelmed by such a masterpiece.
A few people laughed
A few people cried
Most people were silent.
To those who haven't watched dune 2 yet, this is one of the greatest experiences you can ever get in a cinema/theatre
I havent been this emotionally moved by an individual track on a movie soundtrack since the final minutes of "The Bridge of Khazad-dûm" from Fellowship of the Rings. Bless you Hans Zimmer.
I'm thinking back to even Braveheart. I totally agree though. This is next level!
Lotr soundtrack: composer Howard Shore? 😍
@@neilmurphy966 hansard zimshore
I’d recommend watching Kingdom of Heaven then, the score for that movie is incredible as well.
I don't know why, but Hans Zimmer always hits the heart with his music.
Saw this twice in IMAX, after the excitement, visuals, adrenaline rushes throughout the movie, the way the arc folds up at the end with this track leaves you so hollow. Like a gut punch but it makes you want to see the movie more because it is so perfect. I want to go back again and I’m not hesitating to say that.
@@themuffinloverphysicist The film was shot according to the biblical canons, so it touches the soul. Music also has notes from ancient times that are close to our soul. I think Hans Zimmer knows the secrets of the brain and what vibrations we enjoy listening to.
I think one of the main reasons why this song makes me so emotional is because the melody is so sad, it reminds me of someone weeping, (like an outburst, a quick intake of breath or a hitch, followed by another outburst… just my own internal thoughts on it) really builds to the glorious tragedy of that scene.
It reminds me of the ending of Inception. It hits almost the same.
If 90 bn people being murdered by a clan following faith and patriotism had a song. Utter grief for one side, pure rise for the other
Dune 2 is one of the best experiences ive ever had in a theatre. Absolute CINEMA
bro, the evolution of paul from a hero to an anti hero, it was amazing
One of the most beautiful yet terrifying endings I've ever seen in a movie
i dont know why the ending of this film hits so hard, i read the books i knew what was coming. yet seeing it portrayed in beautiful cinematic glory with this soundtrack playing, the ending hits like a freight train....
This is stunning just left the cinema searching for this theme. “Lead them to paradise.”
SPOILER:
I just loved how Paul looks back at Chani to only see fear/anger in her eyes. To her, Paul has changed from the person she once knew existed.
"I love you Paul, but where you're going I can't follow. I can't be a part of this."
"You will never lose me as long as you stay who you are", feels
I'm glad they made her character so much more significant in this way, making her the voice of reason in this madness and seeing right through the ploy of the prophecy. In the book, she's just like any other believer, and Paul receives no criticism whatsoever from anyone in his entourage for anything he does, ever. Here, Chani tells him she will love him for as long as he doesn't change, that sets up a boundary between the two - one that Paul can't even promise by simply answering "I will love you for as long as I breathe", which doesn't say anything about not changing. And in the end, she doesn't feel she can be with him as he's unrecognisable from the man he once were. I suspect this was done so it's very clear for us the audience that Paul has turned for the worse, something that wasn't that super obvious to many readers of the book originally.
@@xen0bia Thank you. As a book fanatic, the changes to Chani are superior in every way.
@@CuttingEdges If you're a book fanatic, you should know what happens in Dune Messiah. How in the world is this film version of Chani supposed to become the character from the second book?
The Ending just made me root for the sequel even more, Dune Messiah will be total blast
"Lead them to Paradise"
I got goosebumps all over me.
this song tapped into a part of my brain in a way no other movie score ever has
I feel the same.. very profound
I think this film couldn't have a more perfect ending, Fraser's cinematography and Zimmer's music are perfect, Ferguson's, Zendaya and Chalamet's performances are excellent, it has a round closure to the religious, love and political theme, but perfectly open for a 3rd part, which if it is on the same level as this 2 parts... We could be looking at the best trilogy in the history of cinema
I thought Timothee, Austin, Florence and Rebecca were the highlights. Zendaya.. *NOPE.*
Idk about complete best, but potentially tied with LotR. As long as it sticks the landing on movie 3 unlike many other trilogies before.
Won't jump over LOTR, but will be in the golden hall of history for sure
@@thedarkone9552the 3rd one will be the determiner of that. All rests on that now
100% agree with you
One of the most perfect endings to a movie I’ve ever seen. Zimmer and villeneuve are a dream team
The scene where all the Fremen shouted in unison "Lisan Al Gaib!!! Lisan Al Gaib!!" as they are loading into the Sardaukar ships to attack the Great Houses fleet in orbit is just chef kiss.
Im without words, i as a child used to fall asleep to Hans Zimmers "Now you are free" from Gladiator! Im now 37 doing the same to this mastarpiece!
Same here! That perfect soundtrack-ending trio of "Elysium," "Honor Him," and finally "Now We Are Free" was just incredible. I also grew up sleeping to "This Land" from The Lion King and "Lasiurus" from Batman Begins in the same way, and now I'm definitely adding "A Time of Quiet Between the Storms" to the list.
So many Hans Zimmer soundtracks for every mood. His stuff is just beautiful.
This. Music and movie ending felt like gladiator.
This soundtrack legit almost made me cry especially this piece
Me too, when the credits started to roll I was moved to tears by what I just witnessed and this incredible song, such a great experience.
Same, i never cry, but this song makes me want to cry. Its crazy. What an epic ending of the movie.
I love how everyone is looking serious while Stilgar is just basking in the comforting aura of the prophesied LISAN AL GAIB
I was stuck in my seat for 5 minutes after the movie ended...... STUNNED.
Same. I couldn’t stand up.
Soul left my body hearing those last 48 seconds.
2025 oscars: Hans Zimmer wins the oscar for best motion picture soundtracks, as written.
“You will never lose me as long as you stay who you are.”
and so, he lost her...
The last 10 minutes of this movie, had me holding my breath, goosebumps all over my skin, my heart torn between wonder and sadness.
It's so amazing how Hans Zimmer manages to create music that sounds medieval and futuristic at the same time!
My father grew up on star wars, and loved everything about it. I am growing up with Dune, and am loving everything about it. Although Dune came before Star Wars, I can still see that I am following in his footsteps... "as it is written." Lol
I like star wars, I like Dune. Both have strengths and weaknesses. The peoplr who do fandom wars need to chill.
My mom was a massive science fiction fan and she loved Dune. This song makes me think of her face, the day she departed to the great unknown. Who knows what happens when we pass, but when it’s my time to go I hope to see her on the other end. She’d have loved this movie. Love you Momma!
Why am I crying when hearing this song?
I cried thinking about Paul's face to Chani during that scene. Said everything while saying nothing.
Because you believe brother. Paradise is waiting for us. ✊🏻🥹
Because in this moment, the fate of 60 billion souls is sealed
☝@@AuroraAustralis_
You wept for Paul, powerless to fight against the prophecy.
You wept for Stillgar, whose faith was twisted into blind fanaticism.
You wept for the billions of lives that will be burned in the coming Holy War.
But most of all, you wept the tears Chani would've shed but did not. For she is Fedaykin, and her honor would not let her waste her water for tears, not even for a broken heart.
One of the most beautiful pieces Hans has ever done and that’s really saying something. It reminds me of waking up to a paradise after death.
you have done that?
@@SpetalskBKHSBS yep I'm speaking from Heaven. I'll meet you at the pearly gates when you get in bruh.
Hans is the best composers to ever live. Every piece he creates you think to yourself "This has to be his peak. How can he get better than this?". Then another movie director calls Hans, speaks three words to him then Hans just produces the most mind blowing pieces of music to every exist. The greatest off all time with nobody close behind him.
I've listened to Agape - Nicholas Brittel for years now and always thought "nothing quite moves me as much as this". I think Kiss the Ring is the first exception to this.
This is the theme of Paul and Chani, and when it plays at the end, y'all know why it's so sad
“A great man does not seek to lead, he is called to it, and he answers”
Dude just wanted to be a pilot.
@@kevindeanschroodershow ironic is that? Instead, he is the Kwisatz Haderach, Lisan al-Gaib.
I almost cried man. The whole ending almost pushed me to do so, a film never made me that sad ever
This song perfectly portrays the ending of the movie. Heroic, expansive, and seeped in darkness. We've just witnessed the death of a boy and the birth of that universe's greatest villain.
"It’s coming. I see a holy war spreading across the universe like unquenchable fire. A warrior religion that waves the Atreides banner in my father’s name. Fanatical legions worshipping at the shrine of my father’s skull. A WAR IN MY NAME!"
This has the gladiator soundtrack at its core.
This track brings so many different emotions. Motivation. Tragedy. Beauty. Euphoria. Vengeance.
This drops so hard! Hans cooking for the oscars again
I had tears in my eyes when the credits started to roll and this masterpiece was playing. I was moved to tears by what I just witnessed, one of the best movie I have ever seen in my life.
"As long as I breathe"
LIES
@@AlanMartinez-bj7kwNot lies. Paul loves her, truly. He’s doing what he believes he has to. To follow the Golden Path and save humanity. It is a great and terrible fate.

Ghola Paul: "Chani, I've loved you for 5000 years."
I love how they use bells to embody his victory and ascendancy to Emperor. So haunting when mixed into the otherwise tragic music...
Recently visited Morocco and went to Sahara. Walking on the dunes at sunset while listening to this was one of the most amazing moments of my life.
1:48 as someone who has been listening to Terraria calamity mod music those bells immediately tells me Paul's going to be sitting in a throne of corpses.
Bells in cinematic music are usually put to signify religious significance. Same in game music. And usually its not a positive connotation😂.
I unofficially rename this track to "Lead them to Paradise"
The Academy better be polishing up that Oscar for Hans Zimmer. He has it in the bag.
the movie is barely a month old but but this track already feels nostalgic.
it’s some of Hans’ best work ever, up there with Lion King & Interstellar
I’m not gonna lie, this song and the ending scene of this movie make me cry. I’m amazed at how much I ended up caring about Paul and Chani’s relationship. Her leaving him to go off into the desert they both love so much while he commits intergalactic genocide really hits a soft spot for me. And Paul seems confident he’ll have her back. Maybe she’s pregnant.
for me, the melody itself is like the sound of somebody crying... i feel so much intense longing in it
"What is happening mother?" and "Lead them to paradise" Must be some of the most iconic lines in history
I love how all the music accommodating Paul's ascending to power is more tragic than heroic.
Never has genocide been more magnificently scored.
This ending is proof that you can adapt and change the ending of a book for the better. Herbert wrote Dune to highlight the danger of following a false leader/profit. His following books enforce Paul's ascension as being destructive and tragic. Having the other houses deny Paul on the spot, immediately sending the Fedaykin off to war, and having Chani leave (all of which did not happen in the first Dune book) have created one of the most haunting endings I have ever seen in a film... and paired with this song...f-me.
whatever
I love the books and this is facts
Diune 2 is an absolute masterpiece....
The costumes, the music, and Paul's transformation into anti-hero. The love in Paul's eyes for Chani when he said that he would love her until his last breath brought tears to my eyes. Last scene.. Chills
Lead them to Paradise. The problem with religion is that it can be used as a light to help ourselves and others to see. But just as easily, it can be used as a torch to burn others down. It's up to us to use it carefully.
That was frank Herbert’s message.
@@ciaranbrk religion is a beautiful, dangerous thing
@@RedBoko2017any religion is evil, created to control and enslave.
That's what stings. He promised to help them fight to reclaim their home. Yet at the end, they happily leave their home to conquer the stars. Liberators turned into the new oppressors.
I cant stop playing it. Its a part of me now😢
I was just sitting there, crying and wiping my tears with my fingers as I listen this masterpiece as the cast scene goes while everyone's leaving the theater...
Same here today 👍... In France.
Me too, man.... and I'm going back to do it all over again.
Me too, when the credits started to roll I was moved to tears by what I just witnessed and this incredible song, such a great experience.
this was perfectly placed right in the end of the movie. it just captures all emotion from the journey we've been through and the brand new adventure yet to begin all at once.
