      I'm just fascinated that anyone watched the entire dune movie. I'm about an hour in and it is one of the worst films I've ever seen. There is no actual plot or point just a bunch of people talking about nothing at incredibly low volumes while awful (intended to be suspenseful?) music blares over everything so you can't hear the boring, cliche, and predictable dialogue.

      Paul was one generation early. Lady Jessica was supposed to bear a daughter for her husband the Duke.
      Bene Geserit could magically choose the sex of their children at conception. That child's progeny was supposed to be the Kwisatz Haderach.
      But, yes, Paul was the next best thing. He was the result of the Bene Geserit breeding program and a massive overdose of Spice.
      Duncan Idaho, or his Ghoula clones at least, had to die countless times at the hands of God Emperor Leto over his reign, until his genetic memories unlocked the potential of the Kwisatz Haderach.
      Maybe I'm misremembering, but wasn't Miles Teeg awakened to Kwisatz Haderach status through an extended period of torture?
      I thought he was the one who merged with the machine empire to become the new Omnius? Maybe he was there and provided the distraction for Duncan Idaho³⁸⁰³ to accomplish it.

    I vaguely remember somone telling my that the "spice" gave you lots of abilities and almost immortality but if you stopped taking it you die quickly and its actually some kind of poison. That once you start taking it, you can never stop. I only read one book years ago cant remember much about it. Really enjoyed this video. Well done

    • @JamesTAdams
      @JamesTAdams Месяц назад +1

      Yeah, he summed it up fairly well. Spice prolongs life, grants immunity to most known diseases, and generally improves health. It can also awaken prescience, or future sight, in those with the inborn talent. However, should you ever be deprived of it for any extended period of time, you’ll die from withdrawals within hours. It’s a poisoned gift; valuable for all that it can do, but should a world ever miss a shipment, millions would suffer.

    I think you read the Dune Encyclopedia summary of old Earth history and assumed it was literally correct in-universe.
    I assumed it was implied that they simply lack the language/understanding to describe in detail what was going on on earth way back then, so they just assume there was always an empire, it just changed locations over time and occasionally disappeared. My take on it was from the start that our history happened, it was just forgotten and misinterpreted over thousands of years into what ended up getting printed in the Encyclopedia.

    Pretty sure Dune is set in our universe's future with our timeline.

It's an interpretation of history contemporary to the events of the book. Thus it distorts true history into a political schema that legitimizes the social structures associated with the period of the history's composition, which again is contemporaneous with the events of the books.
    That is to say the version of ancient Earth history that is a series of successor empires more or less representing the greater part humanity collectively, is the popular understanding of history at the time of the Galactic Padishah Emperors, but it is only accurate as an interpretation of our actual history.

    I feel like Dune is a good example of why knowing when something is done is an important aspect of writing. It really goes off the rails imo. I've never been able to finish the series because it just takes me out of it completely. The main plot should have ended when Paul goes into exile. Its a fitting conclusion, and one thats nice and well-rounded. After that, it honestly feels like Herbert started to write his own fan fiction. That, or do too many psychedelics. Or both.

      that where your wrong Herbert planned one Book but ended making the first trilogy instead of condensing it into one book, so he always planed to at less have a trilogy but was ready to make it one book if publisher where against it, he then while making the two first sequel also started written part of the second trilogy, so no he knew when to stop and that was 6 Books. He's son later on expending the universe.

I’m only early into reading about it etc but it’s just such a cool perspective to take and time period to focus on. Like going from “present day” through all the drama would be interesting enough but to start the story so deep into the process is such an amazing act of imagination and intelligence ❤️ written like 50-70 years ago as well??

    This is a great video, but I think you should have stated that some of this comes from the Brian Herbert books. It's not something that will be obvious to most news fans, and I think they deserve to know that there's a difference. While I think anyone's free to enjoy them, they changed a lot of Frank Herbert's story through retcons and I think Frank's books deserve to be regarded on their own.
    To me, and a lot of fans, Dune and Expanded Dune is not the same thing. Although Dune is obviously part of Expanded Dune, I don't think it's unfair to consider Expanded Dune not a part of the regular Dune canon.
    I would love a video like this that only includes the original Frank Herbert story as well!

Or was it the Fremen with the worship of the sand worms that helped Leto come to power, be a legit prophecy? On one hand, Leto 2 wasn’t possible without Jessica while on the other hand, BG’s were manipulating a savior, but did not account for the worship of sand worms?

    In the shadowed sands of Arrakis' domain,
    Where the Spice Melange holds an empire's reign,
    A tale unfolds, a grim reflection we find,
    Of our world's struggles, cast in Dune's design.
    For "Dune," a saga of depth untold,
    Weaves religion, environment, and greed's stronghold.
    Imperialism's grip, a venomous plight,
    Echoes through Arrakis, shrouded in night.
    The Spice, a substance of power untamed,
    Mirrors our oil, by greed inflamed.
    Without it, the universe of Dune would fall,
    As with oil, our nations stand tall.
    In a world where leaders vie for control,
    O'er desert lands where riches unroll,
    We glimpse our reality, stark and cold,
    As Dune's narrative unfolds.
    Navigators fold space, bridging vast divide,
    Much like oil's reach, where empires bide.
    A nexus of power, both dark and bright,
    In Dune's universe, and our world's plight.
    Alternative fuels may rise, but still,
    Oil reigns supreme, with its grasp to fulfill.
    In Dune's tale, as in our reality's weave,
    The link between Spice and oil, none can deceive.
    Frank Herbert's vision, a story told clear,
    Of a world where greed reigns, and hope's near,
    Arrakis, a mirror to our own fate,
    In Dune's darkness, we contemplate.

      I would say it’s less about the threat machines *in and in itself* actually posed, and more that they were deemed as an irreconcilable element upon no other reaction but a complete war of extermination became to “go-to” answer. It’s a testimonial to the theme of the Empire getting itself into these quagmires due to the mindless adherence to their self absorbed ideology. Of course that by then shit was pretty much irreversible, but imagine if, for once, it had interpreted technology as something to be understood, respected, instead of something to be explored as one does a commodity. But that’s not how to empire thinks. They see a resource and extract it according to what immediate use they can put it into. Like, you know, a fitting analogy to illustrate the atitude they have regarding *that other thing*. Talk about “history repeating itself”, the empire clearly grasps very little regarding the full scope Melange and it’s potential - well, the Bene Gesserit non included, of course - and once again lies depending upon something that their own society relies on. Erroneously, they assume it to be dependency on Arrakis, instead it’s dependency on Melange itself. To break said dependence would require a complete overhaul of the whole civilizational modus operandi. That’s not how things normally go… I mean, the squashed “thinking machines” and that shit was gone, they were incapable of replicating it and improving. It’s a testament to how the main antagonistic force to a set civilization forms precisely within the gaps said civilization inadvertently created for itself - And well… The Muad’dib is as the Butlerians before him, except he *fucked shit* hard… But in all seriousness, how interesting is that! What’s best, the novel doesn’t present as a one note subject. As Herbert put it “we all inherited our ancestors violence”. In the end of the day, there’s little we get to do about it… but to try and understand it.
