10:00 I love the way The Voice is depicted in the movies and hate the way it’s done in the show. The difference is the film uses it as a moment of extreme hypnotism. When it’s used on Paul at the beginning of the first movie, he’s told to “come here” and “kneel”. And from Paul’s POV, his eyes roll back and is pulled forward and suddenly kneeling - not because he was controlled like a puppet, but because he was compelled. The same thing happens in the middle of the second movie where Feyd-Rautha is compelled by Lady Fenring. He was almost in a hypnotic daydream as he walked through the halls. He then suddenly snapped out of it and was standing outside Lady Fenring’s room. But in the show, the character is frozen in place, forced to turn around, and listen to a mini-monologue while fully conscious. When she’s forced to stab herself, it’s as if she’s trapped in her own body and her arm moves against her will while she watches in horror. It’s supposed to be extreme compulsion and not a “control magic” spell.
Agreed! Cruically, the movie often shows the voice from the subjective perspective of the person the voice is used upon. And they use jump cuts to disorient the audience and make them FEEL the effect of the voice. In the show it is a more objective depiction and it falls flat. Also, the audio work is just not quite there
I’m worried they can’t follow complex story telling. The books and this show are trusting their audience to have the attention span to follow multiple storylines and characters. GoT was the same way out the gate and it was only several episodes in that we began to pick favorites. You can’t be on your phone and expect to understand what is going on. Lastly, I hope they don’t watch Warhammer 40,000 when it comes out because there is a 40,000 year window with essentially the same technology.
@@stuartbagley2586 got was stupid. it copied historytextbooks but otherwise it went full rtard, its like chatgpt would write a story, no deeper meaning
Show has cool visuals, nice atmosphere, acting is on point. But it’s too busy with storylines and not coherent…. Yet. Will hold off judgement untill after episode 2/3. Hoping it gets more engaging
I wouldn't say there was too much going on but it was more that I couldn't tell which character I'm supposed to root for because although Valya Harkonnen is the narrator, she doesn't come off as the focal point of this story

Really? It was pretty easy to watch.

Have you ever read the books? 😂😂😂

I feel like nothing ever changes in dunes. Like 10K years before Dune 1 and they have the same practices, set up, technology, conflicts, dilemas….
Stagnation is a part of the lore.
The new feudal system and the banning of AI would keep the world stuck.
@ for over 10K years????? After everyone is high af on spice they haven’t invented anything??
