Thank you for your support
Oh goodie another patreon I can join, just started after a raise
I think they cast Christopher walken as a reference to the Fatboy slim song "weapon of choice" where he dances in the music video, the song references the books, "if you walk without rhythm, you won't attract the worm".
I wanted to mention this when you where streaming, but I left before I had the chance. . there are more than one version of the 1984 Dune with a diffident less interesting opening. Using pictures and a narrator. It isn't particularly interesting other than cool robot pictures at the time. Essentially it is the same spiel about the two religious sects.
Also there is the miniseries Children of Dune that also goes through the same parts Of the normal Dune movies with more of what happens with the alliance of the Emperor and the Harkonnen. It also pushes in to later areas with Paul's children and his sister grow older and from stronger connections with those religious forces.
[Potential Ambiguous spoiler here because I haven't watched the new part 2: But a guy that did.. something comes back and dose something and has a more tragic something happen...]
Foreshadowing is apparent all over the Dune story. I suggest just one watch of Children of Dune. It may clear up some of the reasons why things happen. But I wouldn't call it good. Cheep CG and what not.
Pretty much had very similar thoughts about the first and also about the 2nd movie. Glad you had similar opinions.
Also preferred the 2nd movie quite a bit. I wouldn't mind rewatching the 2nd one, but definitely don't wanna rewatch the first one.
@@OniSamaGin
There were two miniseries. The first was just Frank Herbert's Dune, the second was Children of Dune which was a sequel to the first.
Normally that would be nitpicking, but the two are listed and sold separately. Someone getting the Children of Dune one wouldn't find the first story within.
Hey Adum! I’m sure you’ll never see this but I was the theatre employee who recognized you when you watched Dune 2. You were super nice and chill and I want to thank you for making my interaction with you a very positive one! Thank you for letting me take a selfie with you and I’m glad you enjoyed the film!

"The way your father saw it, that spice was your birthright; he'd be damned if some Harkonnen was gonna put his pasty white hands on it. So he hid it, in the only place he knew he could; his ass"
Underrated comment, man, lmao!
I couldn't stop thinking about that the moment I saw Christopher Walken.
I have a fever and the only prescription... Is more spice!
Are you still a marine
*talks about all the bad CGI in Dune
*me looking at the shots: “uhhhh what?”
His mention of green screen effects for part 1 is fair but yeah the CGI was pretty great in both and especially part 2
yeah, I don't get it. The only bad CGI moment is the scene where they were filling up the giant baloon to fly the spice harvester machine.
@@michellesiregar8245that was literally the only moment where I was like, "oh damn, the Harkonnens left behind some faulty CGI, too, I guess."
Yeah I can see what he's talking about with unconvincing animations, but I really didn't mind them at all
@@michellesiregar8245that's like the only part that's weird, but at the same time I couldn't think of any right way to animate that
Probably the most controversial statement of the entire video for me was him saying the cgi in part 1 was unconvincing.
There were like 2 or 3 shots that were noticeable, the rest were very well made.
But we were spoiled by BR 2049. That movie has perfect CGI. I was convinced they got a Sean Young doppelganger until I saw the BTS. And all the Joi scenes... Outstanding effects.
Some of the shots are clearly more polished than others. It's something I noticed revisiting it after seeing Part Two. Some texture details are really unfinished.
the thing is, sometimes bad CGI are unavoidable because we don't see those things IRL. I've seen some photographs that look fake, but they weren't fake or edited.
edit: for example, check out photos of Blue Mountains of Niger! that place looks like unfinished CGI.
@@michellesiregar8245blue mountains of n word
@@michellesiregar8245 I think about this with games too, the way lighting and shadows look irl I often think would be criticized as unrealistic if in a game or animated film. But ultimately the goal of special effects isn't to look accurate to life, only to look right enough to our ape brains for us not to think about it.
I want a Dune film where the narrator keeps coming back randomly, stopping the film saying she forgot something, and leaving again for another unspecified amount of time before coming back again
So Emperor's New Groove but Dune?
That's kind of how the book is like
Watch the lynch version
Or excerpts from in universe histories that spoil the whole plot
@@moldman5694Emperor's New Dune
6:30 when I saw this movie the whole audience burst out laughing at that part where Paul says "I'm not the messiah" and Stilgar insists "see how humble he is, he must be the messiah"
Very pythonesque
Stilgar was funnier than I would expect in this film
He's not the messiah, he's a very naughty boy.
Key difference being that scene was clearly intended comedically, but none of Christopher Walken's scenes were.
@@DirkMcThermot
Christopher’s character was the emperor of the galaxy and known for killing anyone that he may have a hunch that might pose a threat to him, so it kinda makes sense that he wouldn’t be telling jokes
Hey Adum! Im sure you’ll never see this but I was the theater employee who urinated in your popcorn. You are the first guest who has asked me for this but now everyone does since they know me as the piss guy. Just wanted to thank you for that.
Was it the promotional Sandworm bucket of popcorn?
@@jonbaxter2254 Was the piss blue?
The Piss Must Flow.
LOL KAMIIIIIIIIII LOL
Every time I saw Christopher Walken I was imagining him saying:
" I got a fever and the only prescription is more spice melange!"
"The spice....is gonna break!"
Was waiting for Cow Bells 🎉🎉🎉
Paul: "Kiss my ring"
Emperor: "...no"
Paul: "Why not?"
Emperor: "I don't want to"
“Walk without rhythm, and it won’t attract the worm.”
@@Wired4Life2 I am now convinced the only reason they cast Christopher Walken in Dune was because of that Weapon of Choice music video.
When Mr. Dune said: "what are you dune in my swamp" I cried
Who up duning they thang rn
My favorite line from the Dune in question
I hate how they made Lord Farquaad fat and bald in this movie.
I liked when the Scottish character said, "Quick! Get Dune, or they'll see ya!" while the bad guy was creeping by
I like when Dune said its Dunin time and Duned all over everyone hahahahaha so original and soooo funny hahahaha *starts crying while reevaluating all of my terrible life choices*
Personally i love the slow pacing. It gives a lot of time for us to see the cultures developed and to see how the fake prophecies influence them. Dune is not about the epic battles, but about people being deceived by prophecy. I dont think I would get that if the film went any faster.
AMEN! Dune pt.1 and Dune 1984 just do it for me with a majority of the film are people discussing the future of the prophecy. Dune pt. 2 was meh. Think there was too much Zendaya and Butler's character was just too cartoonish for me.
I think when Adum talks about slow pacing he's not complaining about too much background detail. There are just too many shots that are useless, that aren't informative or especially stylish, used to pad out the scenes.
My toes curled when he wrote it off as being a "Star Wars type movie" - it'd be like calling LotR an "Honor Among Thieves" type movie. They might have similar settings but there's a difference between a thoughtful, well-written epic like LotR or Dune vs crowd-pleasing shlock
Very odd cgi criticism ngl
Nah the shields could definitely look better and I noticed some of the sand effects could have been better
Yeah it feels like hating for the sake of hating.
I think he was just bored and didn't wanna say that
@@66something_77 He did say he was bored though.
He hates literally every movie he's ever seen
A Dunis Movie
A very duney movie
If this movie were called "Dunedoche, New York", Adum would have given it a 10/10.
Synechdunis, New York
Dunis Villeneuve.
Dunnarse VillainNewWavey
The eyebrows show that they're "mentats", same as the lip tattoos in Villeneuve's Part One
Yeah and the bag people are the Spacing Guild and those creatures Adum seemed to be confused by are the Guild Navigators. I don't blame Adum for not knowing as the modern adaptation barely touches on them. But they are actually super important to the plot as they're the whole reason spice is needed in the first place. The spice must flow.
@@dragonrings14 The new movies have told the audience virtually nothing about spice except that it inspires visions and makes you kind of psychic.
@@ThreadBombThe spice is basically the source of Paul's most powerful ability, and we see the immensity of his power, so I don't think the audiences would struggle with understanding why it would be valuable. I've definitely noticed far more book readers having an issue with it not being explained than first-time viewers.
@@ThreadBomb Its a massive failure of the film that the driving force of the entire plot is not even mentioned.
@@ThreadBombwhat? There is a whole sequence where the spice is introduced and how important it is for the galaxy
So there actually is an in-universe reason why those 2 guys have the same goofy eyebrows in Dune 1984, I don’t think they ever say it in the film but both of those guys are whats called a Mentat. Basically they are trained to be human computers, they drink this weird juice that stains their lips, and for some reason the costume designer thought they should also have fuzzy eyebrows lmao
because giant eyebrows look weird and David Lynch
It's weird how un-explained Mentats are in either film. If you're a book reader you can pick up on it and realise that the identifiable trait is what marks them (in the new movies it's the dark line from their bottom lip to their chin), but for non-book readers they're just funny looking space people and don't give the impression of basically being biological super computers.
There’s no explanation for the eyebrows other than just a visual signifier. Nor is there an explanation for the Atreides battle pugs, or the milk from the cat with a rat attached it.
Man, Lynch’s Dune is really bugnuts crazy. I love it. It would never ever happen in a million years, but I would love to see a David Lynch adaptation of the later books in the series. They start getting reeeallly weird from basically book 4 onwards.
As someone who is reading the book and hasn't watched the movie THEY HAVEN'T EXPLAINED MENTATS? wtf
@@thomasshuck3923 True, Lynch’s style would be a perfect fit for God Emperor lol
How he can watch a movie like Dune and somehow find an issue with the special effects is completely beyond me.
Just Adum shenanigans
The balloons that inflate on the carrier did stick out to me as bad when I watched it. But that was literally it. Everything else looked really great!
He explained it pretty clearly, he's not personally attacking you by saying that.
autism...
@@JT-cx2ev But he's presenting a point that challenges the perception of the regular viewer. "Wait was the cgi bad?" some may ask while hearing him. But sometimes it seems as he randomly finds things deficient with no actual consistency.
I also have never consumed any Dune media before the Villeneuve films and I found them very easy to follow along and I thought the slow pacing really helped me get into the universe. I was pretty damn hooked for all 5 hours.
I loved when paul ordered the dune popcorn bucket and filled it with the waters of life,classic
I personally also felt Timothee felt flat in the first movie, but goddamn if he didn't own the last part in the 2nd movie! The entire personality shift was really well done imo, and he really seemed like a crazed jihad lunatic just using everyone, loved it!
Thats not what Paul's character is, the whole point of his character is he wants to do everything he can to not be that.
@@user-yk2bu1en7f for a part of the first book he avoids being a Messiah however he basically gives up when he rides the giant worm once he realizes that is either that or never getting his throne so he says "Fuck it let the legend be born" and dune'd all over that poor worm back
@@user-yk2bu1en7f His character is both that he tries to resist going down that path while also knowing he can't avoid it entirely - so he ends up in an awkward, half-baked compromise where he reduced the death and violence slightly, but still become universal dictator in charge of a fanatic religious order of zealots who would die for him, who he is consciously manipulating.
Which, spoilers for the later books: is basically the worst of both worlds, since the jihad still happens, but because Paul pumped the breaks a little he no longer fulfilled the Golden Path, so the ends which were suppose to justify the means will no longer be realised (at least by his own life and actions, that is...).
@@LoudWafflenow if only he became a worm…
@@user-yk2bu1en7f yeah, up until some point then he shifts
If this movie were called "The Holy Dune" and actually directed by Jodorowsky you would've given it a 10/10
lmao
at least hodorowski had a vision
denis literally can't make a movie. or more like two movies because he makes the same crap no matter the script everything he touches is the same crap like king turdas with turden touch

@@tsartomatoYou forgot to mention how each of his movies makes you want the last 3 looong hours of your life back when you make it to the end.
The way Adam described Dune 1984 makes me think that he's never watched a David Lynch movie in his life.
"there was a lot of body horror???? for some reason???"
me: yeah lol
You have to remember that this man has seen very few movies before 2002
He has watched Eraserhead and, at least, Mulholland Drive.
He has Eraserhead and Mulholland Drive rated. Not sure about any others.
Same feeling I got lol. I get why most people prefer the modern version. To me, Lynch's feels much more uncomfortable and strange to watch, which adds to the alien world. But this is a very specific taste that I know a lot of people don't share.
Kyle Maclachlan could play Paul Atreides but Timothee Chalamet could never play Zack Carey in Showgirls!
Tea! But I’d love to see it though
Adum must have the best eye for cgi, cause even part 1 looked amazing to me and I was always immersed and never taken out by thinking anything looked super computer generated.
Edit: I did forget about the scene where his helmet comes up. I remember that sticking out like a sore thumb.
It was that shot where the helmet opens and you see tim's face that looked uncanny valley, and maybe the textures on the carryall's balloons also looked unpolished, other than that the visuals were excellent
I don't think so, I think it's some sort of misinterpretation of what he's seeing. Dune 1, when it came out, was the most visually advanced movie to date in terms of the quality of the visuals and CGI.
Nah I wouldn’t say it’s a best eye for CGI that’s kind of silly and ridiculous. He just makes things really hard to please him
No. His eye is sometimes inconsistent.
Honestly I have no idea what Adam is talking about because dune part 1 overall has some of the most believable vfx in any modern movie.
Christopher Walken being the emperor is basically a reference to the Weapon of Choice music video
weapon of choice is literally a reference to dune
I liked it when they were all pal-ing around and doing the dance together in the closing montage
@@iamcoolalot that's why him being in the movie is a reference.................duh
I dont like how people just praise his presense and hide behind memes. He was dragging the movie down. He was totally miscast. I wish it was someone else and at very least middleaged to keep some of the point of him looking half his age in the books. Jude Law someone else about his age would be much better.
Paul’s personality in the book, being so controlling and confident, contrasts so much with his physical presence as a 15 year old teenager. That makes it really hard to cast well. You have to have him either look believably teenage OR have the commanding domineering aura. Dune 1984 went for aura, New Dune goes for looks.
Yeah I have yet to see the second film yet, but from the first one my impression of the casting is that he looks wayyy too boyish and innocent to play Paul. Plus I really hate the haircut, it's one that emphasizes aesthetic over practicality - at least they could have had him shave it once he integrates into the Fremens, IMO.
But Adum praised his transformation near the end of the film so I'm holding off on final judgement, perhaps he really does pull it off ultimately.
@@LoudWafflethe twink goes Chad pretty believably
@@LoudWaffleso? How was it
@@castrelspirit Just saw it, I still think he wasn't the perfect cast for the lead but Chalamet's "stage presence" was significantly better in this one.
Not sure how much of it was Chalamet growing into his role (the haircut didn't bother me now, even though I still wish it was different), Villeneuve just pulling off the adaptation process better now, or the second half of the book lending itself MUCH better to the format of film - probably some combination of all three.
Paul having much more to do - both in terms of action and characterization - was a very big boon. In the first half of the story he's very much a passive actor in the plot. The first film probably would have been better if they did something bold like refocusing the PoV and treating Duke Leto as the main character (up until Paul needs to escape the invasion, of course). Would allow Paul's character to be established on the sidelines while he's still just an untested boy without it making the plot stumble, and Oscar Isaac did a great job in the role of the Duke already, much better stage charisma than Chalamet in the first film.
@@LoudWaffle Calm down
Wait, but you said that you hadn't been exposed to any Dune related media until Dune Pt 1 (2022), but also had review on Jodorowsky's Dune nine years ago. Which is it Adumb? GOTEEM
YMS has been real quiet since this expose dropped. Not a new video since. Suspicious.
Credibiity: out the fucking window now
that is a documentary about a film that never came t be is not actual Dune content/ no one watches that and suddenly understands Dune
@@deusexmachina9776I heard about that documentary and never heard of the franchise either aside from it influencing sci-fi.
Some really overestimate how mainstream Dune really was before Part 1 came out. Like the last major production anyone talked about was nearly forty years ago when that movie came out. And exactly forty when Part 2 was released.
A Scifi Channel mini series (with Paul literally dressed like the Karate Kid and a young James McAvoy. Look it up. Paul and the Spacing Guild are hilarious.) and a few references in cartoons around the same time isn’t mainstream.
It took a few more attempts by other studios until Denis Villeneuve got it off the ground. I’m just glad WB didn’t sabotage it like Disney did with John Carter.
The Shai Hulussy was too much
Yeah I couldn't handle the hulussy
Harkonnen bussy on the other hand...
Timothee fucking blew my mind with his big speech at the war council
Hell yes!! He was so great
I'm a huge fan of David Lynch's Dune, it functions really well as a B-movie, especially if you already know the plot they're telling (although it's not necessary). The soundtrack was done by Toto (yes, the group that made "Africa") and the production history is just a trainwreck. This film is a major reason why David Lynch now hates science fiction and demands final cut on his films. David Lynch originally wanted to make the film 4 hours long, but the studio stopped filming before they could finish and just patched the footage together, which is why the last act is .. like that. It also makes it a lot funnier any time there's just narration over B-roll because they just didn't have footage for those plot points.
For any David Lynch or even Twin Peaks fans: this is the project where David Lynch met Kyle McLaughlin (whom he thought was perfect for the role ... I don't know how).
Also the "garbage bag people" are wearing modified body bags that the production team cleaned and used as materials before use. The behind the scenes are fascinating on this film, and I find they make the experience a lot more enjoyable since you can squint and see what they were going for (the villain's death is also hilarious).
Would highly recommend David Lynch's Dune, I've seen it 12 times and can't see myself slowing down any time soon.
I just caught the re-release in theaters, and so much of it works better on a big screen. It looked great.
Oh yeah the sets are beautiful
austin butler did such a good job that for a little bit I was afraid I was enjoying a jared leto performance
Duuuude, it really gave me Suicide Squad Joker vibes too haha

@@jofall91 that's a perfect comparison 🤣 i'm sorry but i just couldn't take his character/performance seriously
when i started laughing at irulun's floating exposition head on my first watch of '84 Dune, my partner yelled from the other room "DID YOU GET TO STING'S KNIFE FIGHT?" which is how i learned that Sting was in '84 Dune
I was pretty mind blown when he said he CGI in part 1 was distracting. I was incredibly impressed with the CGI, I thought it was the most well excecuted CGI I have ever seen. Interesting.
i think some scenes had to be changed late in the process so they weren't quite up to par. But overall the cgi was great and it didn't bother me at all.
Part 1 literally won the Oscar for best VFX lmao idk what Adam is talking anout
@@towelzz9873 As someone else pointed out: just classic Adum shenanigans

Nah bro Adam just has intense autism and gets distracted by the dumbest shit on the face of the planet
@@towelzz9873
Because Adam is an actual critic and the Oscars are not.
You watch this channel, right? How are you not aware of this?
I personally didn't notice any of the issues with part 1 CGI, but that's more because I wasn't paying attention to them so much as something else in the scene. If I actually look at them, yeah, they're not on par with the rest of the visuals.
Adam's not wrong, it's just I don't think the CGI was an issue for anyone except those both familiar with visual effects and those who are looking for it.

I genuinely appreciate that you just randomly threw in a review of the Lynch version. made me smile
genuinely how could you possibly watch dune pt. 1 and think the effects are bad? that’s so crazy to me
i think the scale of some of the cg objects is so massive that people reactively think it looks unrealistic when really imo people have trouble suspending their disbelief enough to see that the ships etc. are beautifully and accurately rendered and are just overwhelming in the detail they suggest
bc good cgi can look....................CGI. It was distracting
FYI, David Lynch disowned the 1984 film after the producers made their own changes in the final cut. The TV edit is credited to director Alan Smithee, and the script, credited to Lynch in the original, is credited to a pseudonym, "Judas Booth".
Whether or not it's really his, as opposed to that of producer Dino De Laurentiis, or someone else entirely, would probably require a good look at production notes that are unlikely to ever see the light of day. I think it's fair to say it's less "his movie" than Eraserhead, Blue Velvet, or Wild at Heart.
Just watched Lynch's Dune for the first time this week and I have to say - the corniness is VERY endearing to me. While I don't think it's a good movie by any stretch of the imagination, I had a BLAST watching it and will probably revisit it more than I do Villeneuve's films.
Dune part 2 is the definition of the word Epic. It's worth seeing in the biggest screen possible more so than whatever the fuck ghostbusters frozen empire is

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" - Baron Harkonnen (1984)
As it is written.
I really liked Dune Part 1, but I totally understand people's criticisms of it. I think part of the pacing issues comes from the fact that the movie's structure is nothing but setup for Part 2. They were also very faithful to the book. They didn't create any original characters or make up any side plots to make the first movie actually feel complete, and I'm really grateful for that. I do agree that the ideal experience would be a single movie, 4 hours is a little too short for me. 4.5-4.75 hours maybe. I just enjoy being in that world so much that I honestly struggle with trimming it down. That's me, though.
yeah I honestly dont see how it could be trimmed down any more than it already was. I know it would be a lot for people to take in one sitting but it needs that run time
Dune Part 1 is a very slow movie, but I loved trying to piece together the setting. I was never bored.
because it does a horrible job establishing the world, lore and character motives.
The spicediver cut of Lynch's Dune is kind of good I won't lie. Like it's still got all of the cheese but the extra 40 really fleshes out some of the character relationships and that tacky ass ending gets fixed to be a little more menacing!
I guess you already aware of this, but David Lynch was in a lot of fight with the hollywood over this film, and they changed a lot of things he didn't want to.
There's a reason why he never want to talk about the movie or barely even recognize it.
To my undersanding, he wanted to do more, but neither the budget or the time allowed him along with the pressure from the hollywood.
So in the end, he just said, f*ck this, completed the movie and then never worked with hollywood again after that.
I can’t believe he forgot to mention the epic soundtrack of the David Lynch film was made by rock band Toto.
Yes, the band who played Africa.
Truly inspired
True contrast of the Creative ARTS.
Dune OST by Toto, banger! They blessed the sandworms down in Arrakis
Lmao, very much right
The way you described the first Dune is the way I remember it from watching it when it came out. But rewatching it now and I must say, it flows like spice. One smooth continuous waving resulted in quite ecstatic resonations at times. I wasn't bored because the whole time my mind was occupied by trying to make sense of the world of Dune and peace together motivations of characters, I like puzzles and for me, it was very delightful. And all the sounds and visuals and designs were just a blessing. Also love the mom representation in a movie, don't often you get to see a positive illustration of mother-son relationships.
Very much agreed! Dune Part 1 is a very slow movie, but I loved trying to piece together the setting.
I think adum has ADHD =(
David lynch thought he was gonna get to make a really weird sci fi film that was loosely based on the book. The studio had different ideas.
I am glad someone else thought the same thing. CHRISTOPHER WALKEN?? I really enjoyed the movie but that took me completely out of it whenever he was on screen.
Had the same reaction to Anya Taylor-Joy. I already just saw her as Furiosa in the previews, and now I'm expected to just buy that she's also a character in Dune? It just doesn't work.
Because he did some comedy in the 2000s? Dudes a great serious actor.
@@siphillis she's the perfect choice for Alia tho
Hard same. It was extremely distracting.
@@stonecrestcounty342that may be, doesn’t change the fact that his cultural role is extremely well established at this point. You act like he’d have trouble finding other serious roles if he didn’t have this specific sci-fi emperor job
Bro really said Dune: Part One's VFX weren't believable💀
it wasn't. It was good CGI, but it was too much CGI
@@itscrossfaded oh yeah you're right, they should've gone out to Arrakis for real and filmed Ornithopters and Sandworms in their natural environment.
@@Poreanstupid take. acting like practical effects aren’t real.
@@Poreanjust film it all in the middle of saudi arabia bruh
Dune 1984 is amazing. Funny as hell still epic
One thing i have noticed about the dune movies is why it gpt its title as an unfilmable film. Spoliers for dune 1 but when paul is threatened with the gom jabar, Jessica sights phrases from the fear speech which makes sense from a show don't tell perspective but dune has always been a tell dont show story. Where the plot that is happeneing in front of you is not important but the context it has within the story is. This has always made the books both complicated and wordy, which doesn't translate well. However, i felt that the palm tree scene perfectly embodied how dune should be filmed. With a lot more nuance to their conversation. Dune strikes me as a game of thrones situation where it gets critical praise until it decides to do something away from the source material and stumbles.
Denis talks about how he doesn’t like dialogue and likes film to be as visual as possible - which is quite literally the opposite of what the books are. It’s all talking and almost no visual descriptions. It’s an odd contradiction that I think works surprisingly well but still leaves a lot to be desired for some fans of the book.
@@URBONEDi absolutly agree and overall i think that for those just enjoying the visuals of the film thats all thats needed. however like the change to the mentats having a tattoo instead of the stains again misses the point of spice and its addictive nature. an its never properlly adressed as a change so it feels like it lacks any weight beyond asthetics. where as the book uses what few discriptions it gives to make a point about the over all story. its those changes that on the surface seem small but change a lot of the context of the overall story that i feel need somthing like an internal monolouge or maybe subtitles for thoughts.
How did you forget to mention the cat milking machine?! Scoot will never forgive you for this! :O
I really want to forget about the cat milking machine.
Speaking of Dune: Part Two, we're still waiting for The Lion King review: Part 2 😅
My favorite scene in dunc part 2 was when Al Pacino was rapping in a Dunkin’ Donuts.
A dunka dunka dunka dunka dunkacino!
"It's not Paul anymore, it's Dunk!"
"Dunkatreides?!"
"Don't mind if I Dune!"
Christopher Walken saying Muad dib was the funniest shit ever
I watched Dune 1984 because I loved Dune 2 so much that it made me curious because it’s a somewhat running joke in RedLetterMedia content that Dune 1984 is a nightmare to watch. I watched it high with friends and it was a lot of fun. My friends who were familiar with the books did have some praise for it though. They claim that the Harkonenns in the new movies capture the intimidation and power they represent but fail to showcase their depravity and disgustingness which the David Lynch movie does much better.
We all know dune part one and two should've been Rated R but Denis/Warner wanted pg-13
So that's where Alex IHE got his eyebrows
The Reverend Mother dropped a new Dune review.
Dune: Part DEUX: End of Book One
This guy watch 2 Dune Movies and he can't remember the main villains name is Baron Vladimir Harkonnen. Hell he could have just remembered Baron Harkonnen or the fat Harkonnen. I get he hasn't read the book but at least remembered characters names from the 2 movie you watched with the exact same characters
They are not interesting enough to remember. Its fat floating guy and bald guy
@@tcrvo01 Nah, they are
I honestly think that Lynch's Dune would be a good candidate for an Adum & Palz watch-through
My uncle and I arrived much earlier than expected and had an hour wait for Dune 2. We had thoroughly overeaten as well, when we finally got in and I realized our seats reclined I was like oh shit we're both gonna fall asleep guaranteed. But nope the movie was so exciting we both perked right back up. The moving cover scene was the best one.
I loved this movie but I don't understand how they're going to adapt the next book, they left out so many important plot points. They're going to have to do a lot of retconning but I trust the director
"The Slow Blade penetrates the shield" line that Patrick stewart says was the exact line used by Josh Brolin, and is directly from the book too
Hilarious how the Baron being able to fly is just something they made up for the 80's one and they've just kept doing it ever since
10:59 Alongside random weird Lynchian things, Toto's soundtrack is what kept 84's Dune in my heart all these decades. Don't care about the inaccuracies to source or how aged the effects may be, the grandiosity and nerdiness of prog rock sensibilities is the most fitting accompaniment to space operas and planetary romances. Graeme Revell and Hans Zimmer really had no chance, especially with the sort of irony that is inherent in having the band that blessed the rains in Africa tackling a universe where rain is a socio-economic apocalypse.
Oh god, kazoo man from 80s Dune is imminently memeable
Adum: 7/10
Everyone: Oh brother this guy STINKS
YMS be like "This is the greatest movie of the year, 7/10"
I'm convinced Walken was cast purely for the Weapon of Choice reference, which itself references Dune.
The best version of Lynch's Dune is a 3-hour fanedit. It's on RUclips somewhere.
@11:47 David Lynch decided that the Eyes of Ibad should be expanded and gave each aspect of dune their own facial recognizer. The Bene Gesserit are all bald, the Harkonens all were ginger and gross, idk why they didn't go with the stained lips of the Mentats from the book (you can see they kinda tried) but they landed on big bushy eyebrows. Still silly, but that's why they did it.
I think the hyper-serious despite having goofy elements tone of Part 1 perfectly matches the books. They have these deep philosophical cuts in the same book where fish people take worm drugs to tell rich people in spaceships where to go
Coming from someone in the exact same boat as you (never seen anything and never read anything) I saw the first movie hours before I went to see the second in IMAX and I completely disagree with most of what you said about the effects in the first movie Adum.
Completely agree with you about second movie.
Love ya!
Adum: drops it from a 6 to a 5
Lisan al gaib as it was written
Honestly thank you for mentioning Timothee Chalamet's performance. People kept saying he was amazing, but I had a hard time taking him seriously with some of his line delivery, especially in the first movie like you mentioned. Admittedly he was much better in Dune 2.
I’m convinced he’s just a bad actor at this point… the only passable performance he’s given that I’ve seen was in CMBYN
@@lamikiminach9503 I think he's got great acting chops, and Elio was a role that suited his style but also one where was able to express himself more. Since then he's almost exclusively worked on blockbusters where I feel they've reigned in and narrowed what he does with a character to maximise his star power.
@@lamikiminach9503 He was fine in Interstellar.
He's a timid, confused, and reluctant hero throughout the first arc. It isn't until his dad is killed that he changes.
If his performance in Dune 1 was exclusively him past the halfway point, Adam would eat it 😂
So does that mean Lion King 2019 part 2 is coming soon? Adum did say at the end of the first one that he was “pulling a dune part 2” with it lol.
Wish u had said “I just watched a dunie movie” like u said in the first video
Finding the CGI from part 1 to feel dated now is understandable for someone exposed to so many movies, but to say it was dated for the time is silly
it has been two years, what
If you want a good version of Dune under five hours, maybe you’d like the Syfy miniseries? The costumes and effects are funny-bad, but the story is excellent. There is an extended version of the miniseries that I have trouble hunting down, which is different from the uncensored version, which is actually cut down. Yes, it is very annoying to find in good quality online (presuming you don’t want to watch it on the RUclips freeboot)
I tried it and made it 30 minutes into the first episode. Made the worst parts of the Star Wars prequels look like pure poetry 😅 I respect that fans of the novel get something out of it though.
I agree the miniseries from 2000 is pretty good. I think the look of it, in terms of lighting and set design, along with its somber tone, is spot on.
Hey Adum! I’m sure you’ll never see this but I was the theatre employee who recognized you when you watched Dune 2. I put novichok inside your popcorn! Thank you for letting me take a selfie with you and I’m glad you enjoyed the film!
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
Frank Herbert, Dune
About to Dune so hard
What the hell you Dune dude
A "movie guy" who hasn't seen Lynch's Dune? Look at this joker
Point and laugh everyone!
Far as I know he hasn't seen mulholland drive or blue velvet either.
Just watched this yesterday. Great timing Adum
I'd like to see your thoughts on the 2000 miniseries and the 2003 sequel series.
THANK YOU! big fan of the miniseries and drives me crazy that no one ever mentions it. Not even in a negative way.
the 2000 miniseries is str8 gas.
so good.
Christopher Walken was the only wtf moment for me 😂
Is it just me or is just about everything repetitive to you?
i almost choked on my dinner when you brought up Tourettes Guy
