pu7pl3:True that. Gunpowder Milkshake had feminist written all over it. I think Netflix is trying to tone down on their feminist nonsense now. I watched Night Teeth a moment ago and I smiled at the way they sugar-coated it. |

The Guilty (2021) 5/10 This movie is an ad nauseam, but I had to finish it because of Jake Gyllenhaal. |

Queenpins (2021) 6.5/10 It's all about the coupons. From coupons to Dinero. Bebe Rexha was awful in her parts. |

DieRich5:If you are an ardent cinephile, Dune shouldn't be giving you headache because it was pretty straightforward..there are more complicated movies that will give you more tougher time understanding than Dune. lol @ "The story was half done"...it literally said "Dune Part 1" in the opening title card, so you expected them to answer all your questions in under 2:38 mins when the movie is been adapted from a book spanning into 25 volume at least? 5 Likes 1 Share |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by DieRich5: 12:28pm On Nov 01, 2021 |
oyaskii:headache Straightforward ki yes Dem should explain everything in part 1 ND mk part 2 more action ND it's seem dat the dune story is long and dune ain't complicated bro, I just don't like wat Dem did wit it. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by oyaskii(m): 1:35pm On Nov 01, 2021 |
DieRich5:lol they should explain what? How or what they mean by Paul Atriedes is the "one"? really? are you a novice? When they said Neo was the one in "Matrix part one" i didn't need to see part 2 or 3 to know what it meant...and they pretty much explained everything in this part, the importance of spice, Sandworm, Bene Gesserit etc, so what are you on about and what aren't you clear about? Dune is a mixture of sci fi and high fantasy,breaking it all down in this first part wouldn't have been possible. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

oyaskii:the movie was incredibly slow and boring, I knew wat Dem meant he's the one ND in . Matrix part one I think Dem also told us he role too in part 1, and I don watch alot of film Dem use dat word nd the picture was clear even a novice will know it Alot of people no watch the first dune ND no even read about it........... ok now 4get about Paul Atriedes mata ND still alot is not explained in 2hrs. 1)Why are the Harkkunen evil? 2)The Mother and Grandmother have special powers, why? 3)Paul is the one, yes anybody can guess he's role but why him? Josh ND Jason both of Dem did nothing in the movie ND both re the main fighter for the Atreades Zandaya na dis wan pain me pass, she the reason why I'm interested in dune OK I only see her in the same repeated visions. action and character emotions 3/10 Who never read the book or watch the old one, would have no idea what was going on ND I'm one of Dem 1 Like |

DieRich5:The movie isn't as bad as you painted it to be, it's still one of my best 2021 movie, and from the good reviews online and the ratings, it's a very nice movie, I can't wait for part 2 though, but waiting until October 2023 for part 2 is too far. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by oyetpel(m): 5:05pm On Nov 01, 2021 |
DieRich5: I think I can answer No. 1 and 3 1) The Harkkonen are not evil, even though they rule Arrakis with a very strict and often cruel way. They preside over Arrakis with order from the Emperor. The Emperor is like the overall ruler in the universe, and anybody from a great house can become an Emperor, but House Currino have been ruling as Emperor for years. Now, Duke Atreides is becoming successful and the Emperor fear that Duke's success and developed influence may hinder him in decision making. Heck with Duke's influence in the Laadsrad (like a senate of great houses), he could overthrow the Emperor. So, the Emperor's solution to stopping the rise of Duke was planned. House Atreides and House Harkkonen have a long standing hatred for each other. So the Emperor did as if he collected dune from House Harkkonen to give House Atreides, but it was an attempt to destroy House Atreides, in that if House Harkkonen was to wage war against House Atreides it will be seen as a result of their past hatred for each other. And so it will not seem as if its the Emperor that wants to personally destroy Duke because if the Laadsrad find out the Emperor did such, they can impeach him. 3) You see, the Bene Gesserit are magical and powerful, and they are also part of government. Dune is set like 10,000 years after the current year we are in, computers are wiped out. So human beings with special powers are the ones doing the work of computers, and each are trained by different organisations and assigned to great houses. E.g Mentat (Thufir Hawat, he is like the computer brain of House Atreides) ordinary human being cannot do his work. Now, spice is a substance that heightens the abilities of these special people. Now, understand that Paul Atreides is like 14-15 years old in the setting of this movie. The parts that one cannot learn in the movie is that; *The mother Bene Gesserit is the mother of Lady Jessica (Paul's mother) *Vladimir Harkkonen is the father of Lady Jessica. The Bene Gesserit believes they have solution to their universe problems, so they started a breeding exercise to bring forth to the world a MESSIAH. In the course of this breeding arrangement, the Mother Bene Gesserit went to Vladimir Harkkonen to sleep with him but the child had deformity and it was killed. She later went to Wladimir Harkkonen to mate again, but he was under alcoholic influence I think, so he raped Mother Bene Gesserit and she placed a curse on him, which made him so obese that he had to implant endoskeleton tech to be able to move and float. Now the child as a result of the rape is Lady Jessica. Obviously Duke Atreides has a wife before, but because of their breeding program the Bene Gesserit must have made Lady Jessica seduced Duke to get entangled with him. In line with this, Lady Jessica was to give birth to a daughter whom when old enough will be married to another great house male child to continue breeding till they get that 'ONE' (Kwisatz Haderach). So assuming Lady Jessica gets pregnant, once she notice it's a boy she will have to terminate it. But Lady Jessica first child was a boy (Paul), so she decided to keep it. And she also had that personal believe that the Kwisatz Haderach was Paul reason she didn't terminate Paul. But the Bene Gesserit also saw signs that Paul had the qualities of being 'the One' but because they had not reached their full planned breeding, they believe the arrival of Paul as the ONE was too early and might cause problems for them. Reason why the Mother tested Paul with the Gom Jabber, assuming Paul could not withstand that unimaginable pain, he would have been killed right there. 1 Like |
