"it just feels off when it comes to vibe of what Dune IS, at least this modern Dune that Denis crafted" that's your problem, you are comparing it to an adaptation of the books, which ARE NOT the books. In my opinion Villeneuve's film feels off when it comes to what Dune is, most of the fantasy vibe and aesthetics that comes with the sci-fantasy genre of the books are lost. If they were to adapt the last 3 books I can't see how Villeneuve's vision would fit in those settings, God Emperor leans a lot on fantasy aesthetics, heretics and Chapterhouse are more like space operas and action that would be more fitting in the hands of the people who produced Andor and Rogue One. I like the contemplative feel of his movie but it is overdone (the second film is way better than the first tho, even aesthetically). There's no clutter in his movie, no texture/noise, the settings feels too desolate even when they are in the cities, it lacks everyday life scenes, Arakeen is barelly there even tho in the books it feels like another character.

Also it might resemble Foundation because Dune is inspired by that very series of books, you are comparing Dune book1 which is set tens of thousands of years apart from this show, mostly in Arakis to a story that shows other societies and settings, God emperor is VERY different from the precious 3 books, and the next 2 books are VERY different from the previous 3 books, every couple of books the style changes, the scope changes, the societies feel different and even the writing is different (and I'm talking about the 6 books writen by Frank only)

Frank Herbert's son who wrote the last three

@@anomaly217 all 6 of them

@@JosephMarchione It is the only Dune thing to directly reference the tyrant, and specifically mentions arafel - the cloud darkness of holy judgement; both a god emperor and heretics reference...I really liked the tone and aesthetic, really felt like dune to me. Also, this isn't a direct adaptation of brian herbert's sisterhood of dune - they are definately doing their own thing; which I like! More Dune! Loved the scene where Javicco and duke Richese are talking while thier truthsayers are in the background scheming against both of them lol. Also liked seeing the acolytes doing prana-bindu training. Really intrigued by desmond hart, my guess is he's and Ixian spy with Tleilaxu eyes or something - very intrigued by this mystery. I thought episode was solid and a good start for a 6 episode miniseries. They even quoted the Orange Catholic Bibile: "thou shall not disfigure the soul." Don't really understand all the hate and apathy from so called Dune fans, especially the ones who have read the whole saga; but to each their own I guess...episode two could be a snooze for all I know.

@@anomaly217 dune fans who read the books ages ago and don`t remember anything but keep criticizing this show for no reason other than ~it doesn`t look like Villeneuve`s Dune~ which doesn`t look like the book anyways. They put the books on a pedestal as if they are holy and flawless, They aren`t, and neither are the adaptations and it`s completely fine. They also like to compare with GOT, as if they weren`t sh1t1ing on it a couple years ago as well. This one episode got more Dune lore than the movies (includin Lych`s)? Homeworlds, bene gesserit training, hand talk, Sharing, Buttlerian Jihad, a better way of depicting prescience, production design that looks both sci-fi and FANTASY (which Vileneuve disregard by making everything so sterile and minimalist), small folk and actually showing us cities and everyday life, possible Tleilaxu and Ixian plots, Truthsaying, the music score not drowning everything else on screen etc. These fans should reread the books

@@PedroRodrigues-fh1ku well said!

😂

it reminds me of 'Foundation'.

😂

So you block people with opposing view points... lame

I dont know, I liked the music. I liked the vibe of it. I liked the God emperor reference. I dont this type of negative shit. I just came here to oppose him
