It's a shame that Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson have essentially taken hold of the stories of Brian's father and actually told their fans that they will continue to write books "as long as there are fans to appreciate it." So instead of leaving it at the "Sandworms of Dune" as Frank had intended, they basically said that Dune is now a terrific cash cow from which they will milk until there isn't any purpose any more.
I just found out WARNER BROS isnt going forward with PART 2. Soooo fcked up, i thought the movie is top 3 in sci fi movies of all time. Imo,i think its better than star wars
@@vperkv6554 I don’t know how credible that actually is. Variety, GQ, Gizmodo, etc all stating it most likely happen. They’re just anxiously waiting on green lighting it.
I've been a Dune fan for ages. Read every book connected to it. You've done an excellent job on the history of the Bene Gesserit... Wish you had included Brian Herbert's "Prequel" additions to the saga. The origins of the "witches" is also fascinating.
If you've been a Dune fan "for ages" and read EVERY book connected to it, you must have read the Dune Encyclopedia by Dr. Willis McNelly. This book had Frank Herbert's approval, and it contains the REAL account of the Butlerian Jihad, not that crap tossed out by inferior authors who have abundantly demonstrated that they don't understand the source material, so they decided to spit on it and turn it into a piece of cartoonish drivel. The Bene Gesserit existed long BEFORE the Butlerian Jihad. This is also explained in the Encyclopedia.
The Bene Gesserit are eugenicists, if you still didn't got the message. “original Bene Gesserit school was directed by those who saw the need of a thread of continuity in human affairs. They saw there could be no such continuity without separating human stock from animal stock-for breeding purposes" Gaius Helen Mohiam
yes but the actual term Eugenics (/juːˈdʒɛnɪks/ yoo-JEN-iks; from Greek εὐ- 'good' and γενής 'come into being, growing') is a set of beliefs and practices that aim to improve the genetic quality of a human population, I would argue, is the BG goal, for the improvement of the human population?, OR for just a powerful puppet that they control? I would say they are Manipulators
@@mrburn6119 Not all humans, only those in power : "Humans must never submit to animals" as Gaius Helen Mohiam said. Dune is basically Gattaca in space (and future), a feudal system, based on Eugenics
@@mrburn6119 Genetic quality is improved when diverse tribes mix together to form the Universal Human (who can then travel to Space, among other things). So the BG's beliefs are the total opposite of that, only focusing on "bloodlines" that have separated from what they otherwise call "animals" - the answer is the puppet, of course. But life has a way of circumventing unnatural intervention, just like in Jurassic Park... Now it could be argued that the idea of this failed Messiah figure having any flesh-and-blood descendants ("future of our house") is in itself unnatural, but I think there was a pact with nature behind that.
To be fair, God Emperor Leto's golden path was the only way to ensure the survival of humanity should they fail against the 'outside enemy'. It's a pretty simple plan. Oppress everyone for thousands of years so that when he dies, everyone scatters as far as they can go so they never have to be oppressed anymore. Making it so that even if all the empire is glassed, there will be surviving humanity somewhere out of reach.
Dangerous indeed, but to whom? Who decides what is a "flaw" or not? It all looks like the only danger is to the social norms in place, to the few who want to rule in the absolute. This absolute is rendered null and void by the fact that there is someone who can always see alternate worlds.
I like when you guys make this particular type of content. Questions about certain topics in movies or shows that we've all wondered. Thanks for this 👍👍
What they don’t explain in the movies is how much spice extends life. Most of the main characters could be centuries old. Also why Paul is special, and looked at favorably by his teachers.
Ooh! Ooh! I know? Because he is a man who has the combined power of women and was expected to be born a girl? 😏 “You are the future of our house” “Err... what if I don’t feel like it?” “You will find your own way.”
So the bene gesserit are trying to create a super psychic human that can fight and defend humanity against machines. The whole premise of dune is mankind fought a huge war with Ai and almost lost until they started to consume spice so they no longer had to rely on machines. The whole premise of dune is a messiah figure uniting mankind to finally defeat Ai once and for all. That crucial part is not really touched on in the first novel hence a lot of newcomers to the series are confused by what’s going on.
It's not touched on in the first novel because that has absolutely nothing to do with Dune at all. It's just bullshit that Kevin J. Anderson and Brian Herbert made up because neither of them can understand the original six novels. FH made the assumption that his readers were intelligent enough to understand things like philosophy and history. KJA/BH don't even credit their readers with the intelligence to remember what happened half a dozen pages ago.
Good synopsis. I wonder: how much (if any) of the broader "future history" of the BG will form part of the "Dune: The Sisterhood" series? Or will it focus on the "prior history" of the order in the centuries or millenia leading to the events of Dune and its sequels?
You missed the whole story of the Duncans, a critical role that threads its way through the entire universe after Caladan. There is also the Atreides ancestor, Vorian, and what started the feud between the Harkonnens and Atreides. The movies lack the details of the books, as it would take a long series to cover all the important points raised. Power corrupts no matter where it comes from. Read the books from the very beginning to the end, Sandworms of Dune. Brian Herbert grew up with the Dune lore and finished the series based on his father's outlines and notes. They follow the backstories and ending very well. I recommend reading them all in story order.
@@Shan_Dalamani The Duncans are part of the original novels. I'm not mixing anything up. I know which are the prequels and which are the original novels, I've read them enough times.
@@joubess In that case, you will have no problem citing where, in Frank Herbert's novels, he mentions Vorian Atreides. Oh, you can't find anything? Gosh, what a surprise. Vorian is a character made up by KJA/BH, and I very much doubt that anything even vaguely resembling the Titans and Cymeks was ever mentioned in Frank Herbert's "notes", if those notes even existed at all. Given how much KJA/BH have changed and embellished their story about the "notes" over the years, I'm inclined to think that they just made them up. After all, people have been asking them to publish the notes for 20 years, and they've refused, coyly claiming that there really weren't that many and can't imagine why anyone would want to read them. This is in contradiction to the claims that there were boxes and boxes of notes. So don't presume to lecture me about Duncan Idaho, or what is and isn't part of the Frank Herbert novels. Vorian is not, and therefore cannot be claimed as an Atreides ancestor that FH created.
@@joubess Nope. The Bene Gesserit already existed when the Butlerian Jihad started. And I have read the prequels. I've read better fanfiction than that crap.
@@Stephensouraski The moment that sucked the worst was when Paul killed the Fremen challenger while hearing "You have to do it so that you become that Messiah bs thingy.

Paul's motivations are vague at best and the build-up towards the rest of the story's revelations is clunky.
In the book, Paul looks at the reverend mother and tells her try staring into that place where they dare not look and he will be staring right back at them. I always thought that was the future.

I believe Part 2 is already in the can. Imagine the cost of reassembling the cast and returning to those locations! Nah, they can release it next week if they wanna.
If we apply a crysknife to the word "Dune", we get the French word "d'une", a combination of the French partitive article "de" (english for "of") and the indefinite article "une" (english for "one") before a feminine noun. Translated, we get "of the feminine One".
The original story abruptly ends as the known universe is devoured by the Old Ones. Laying the foundations for a new fresh universe to come into being. _Or any other Scenario that isn't written by a certain Brian Herbcashgrab._
The original story ends on a cliffhanger. FH was in the middle of writing Dune 7 when he died. As for the claim of the "notes"... KJA/BH have changed their story on that so many times, and retconned the story so many times, that I honestly do not believe them.
so did anyone miss the fact reverend mother is the grand mother of paul and she saved him also baron harkonen is his grandfather and father to his mother and the two harkonen cousin are his relative. Later on his sister embraces the wickedness of her grandfather and tried to kill her nephews,paul's children. This is very much a family quarell that have turned to the dark side and it gets even worse in Children of Dune
they're cannot see the future only the past; for the female line only. but the Kwisatch Haderach alone can see the future and the past of both male and female line. thats the god emperor and paul. you guys miss that.
The unknown threat is not "thinking machines".....it's a face dancer threat who have overcome the Atriedes lines prescience and no-ships. In a sense, the spawn of the accursed Tlielaxu will attempt to become the masters at last!
No, the problem is the audience not thinking hard enough. I've read the books and I can confirm the movie did everything to explain the basic concepts to non-readers. My friends who never read the books understood the movie fine.

Spice is an orange dust. The water of life is a blue liquid taken from a small young sandworm. Men and women can ingest spice. Before Paul, only Bene Gesserit women who had received the proper training could survive drinking the water of life. Every other man that tried it before Paul died in the attempt.
The Harkonnens are the second important family to them. Remember when the reverend mother talked about the quizats hadarat or whatever? Well they also schemed to make a Harkonnen one of them. They were supposed to have an Atreides daughter marry a harkonnen or son to make a quizats hadarat.
Yesss, I did see those direct references in the movie (I read only a little bit of the books years ago). The Atreides look and feel Catholic, Arrakis is basically the Middle-East, etc. The original Messianic mythos is actually about destroying the Messianic mythos as it is an evil design, so it will be interesting to see how they’ll handle this in future installments.
READ THE BOOKS people. That is what we ALL did in 1984. When the first version(the better of the two...) came out. The books are AMAZING. Kind of like a spacefaring Tolkien novel. Or maybe more like O.S. Card's Ender's Game (& Speaker of the dead), in the philosophical, HUMANITY sense of things. Like Star Wars, those books build a HOLE universe and political system... It's like Warhammer meets Wolfenstein (the latest ones), meets Games of Throne.
The Bene Gesserit are not prescient in and of themselves. They see into the memories of their ancestors, not the future. Their goal is to produce someone who is prescient. The continued incorrect use of prescience in this video, kind of makes it unwatchable for someone who's actually read the series.
It was very slow and sooo long! I know it's supposed to be part one but the ending was not climactic at all. The cinematography, set design and score are brilliant. The movie as a whole was just alright. I am glad to see that people are enjoying it.
This isn’t a backstory. This is a summary of Bene Gesserit all the way through to the last of Frank’s books, so spoiler alert folks.
I wouldnt worry as it is not a very good summary
It’s neither. It’s very inaccurate. The bene gesserit aren’t prescient. Whoever wrote this didn’t even read the cliff notes version.
right? i went in only knowing what happened in the Dune 2021 movie. now i feel like i know the whole series.
It’s not even true. The Bene Gesserit rarely had any prescience until like everyone did
Yeah I am having difficulty getting through chapter house. Just not the same.
that's not just backstory. Its forward story. The whole story.
Dune was so good. I really enjoyed it. Can’t wait for the next installment.

What they don’t explain in the movies is how much spice extends life. Most of the main characters could be centuries old. Also why Paul is special, and looked at favorably by his teachers.
According to the Dune Encyclopedia, a lifespan of two or three centuries was normal, with regular consumption of spice.
Ooh! Ooh! I know? Because he is a man who has the combined power of women and was expected to be born a girl? 😏 “You are the future of our house” “Err... what if I don’t feel like it?” “You will find your own way.”

The Bene Gesserit are not prescient in and of themselves.
They see into the memories of their ancestors, not the future. Their goal is to produce someone who is prescient.
The continued incorrect use of prescience in this video, kind of makes it unwatchable for someone who's actually read the series.
I did enjoy the recent Dune movie chapter but this is way too complicated.
Do you have a cold? 😂 “Dube”
Read the books
Original is better. Cgi makes it boring
So they are basically women….describing my wife and all my friends spouses.

"Ultimately successful in bringing the sand worms to the new planet." Get the heck outta here....
If the worms could be moved freely, then Arrakis would not be the sole source of Milange in the entire Galaxy...
Remake of the fifth element

Nothing new under the sun...
slow, simple plot, predicted story, i think its overrated
It was very slow and sooo long! I know it's supposed to be part one but the ending was not climactic at all. The cinematography, set design and score are brilliant. The movie as a whole was just alright. I am glad to see that people are enjoying it.
YUP
Felt longer than Titanic
the film (which one?) or the books?
@@curtismichael4703 Why would the ending be climatic? The movie literally covers half the book
"I think a book and movie series that I know absolutely nothing about is overrated"
