My interest and appreciation for the work of Denis Villeneuve was the reason for me to finally read the books and discover what they are really about. None of my friends ever pointed out how they are a deconstruction of the "chosen one" trope. I got tired of that trope some time ago. So I am really enjoying reading a story with a different approach. And I am really looking forward to the adaption of Dune Messiah. Great news.

[@joaquinwaters1810]

I kind of can’t imagine Dune Part Four (based on Children) not happening. There are threads lingering at the end of Messiah that the third book closes out (Alia, Paul’s ultimate fate, House Corrino’s plots, etc); it’s the true end of that phase of the Dune universe. After that, I agree that if the later books were to be adapted a TV series would be best.

Be great to see multiple dune movies made , the trouble is having read many of the books I felt the quality of the material declined with each subsequent instalment. The first book was indeed the high water mark .

[@asterozoan]

It occures to me that they've got a very interesting problem to solve here. They really do need a time skip to get the characters in place for Dune Messiah, especially since they compressed the timeline of the first book. Just having Alia be born and grow up requires a big time jump. But the last film ended on a big of a cliff hanger, so to skip over the resolution of that would feel odd. I'm sure DV has a plan, and I can't wait to see how he handles this.

[@mggardiner4066]

There’s always old reliable flashbacks /non linear narrative that’s become popular. Which Villeneuve has played with before in other films

[@lorpuz4664]

it could start with a cryptic showing of the jihad similar to paul visions of the future on part 1. but in the end you cut to an older paul. to show the viewer he is not forseeing the future he is remembering. that could be a good way to introduce the time skip and play with how paul changed 🤔 but we need to wait to see what villanueve does

[@MrBazz420]

after reading the book i was wondering how can all the events happen under 9month, since Alia isnt born at the end of part 2, in the book its like 3 or 4 years. Reading the books made the movie timeline a bit odd to me, wich i didnt really notice before reading the book but its a lot of ethings happening in under 9th, like becoming the leader of the fremon. Anyway, let me know what you think.

[@andrewolesen8773]

@@MrBazz420Completely agree. They can correct the time jump by placing Dune messiah 4 years later than it is in the books.

@@Ki_Adi_Mundi Oh, so you think 9-year-old child actors can handle the very adult dialogue and situations of Children of Dune? That's how old the Atreides twins are in that book. Alia is only 16 in Dune Messiah (even younger now that Villeneuve has screwed with the timeline so she isn't born at the correct time, nor has she killed the Baron, so that means her future development as a character won't be accurate). The miniseries' decision to use older actors for the twins was for the best, as they're still young enough to be considered underage, but not too young to handle the material in a credible way.

[@chrislubs1341]

god emperor of dune 👍👍👀

[@KonaLife]

🐛 God Emperor 😮

[@juanlove1980]

I finally went and saw part 2 last weekend… went to a 10 pm show and passed out for at least 1/3 of it… maybe even half 😖😴

[@bbunjamin]

i never knew about this franchise. only watched it after seeing the hype of the second movie. and now i am hooked literally i love this. the cinematics are amazing, the acting, the story is flawless. i NEED this

[@velociripple]

Rejoice! Minor correction (for the sake of nerdiness) - the arrival aliens were heptapods, not octopods (;

[@timbertome2443]

Was about to comment the same 😅

[@Norp-i7m]

Indeed.

[@anttiviitamaki6999]

Came here to look for this comment. I'm sure it's not even the only one. 😅

[@MikePhilbin1966]

As Paul Muad D'ib is PRESCIENT, Dune3 could drop all kinds of future hints... Leto II going worm, the Golden Path, even the Eternal Face Dancers interfacing with Duncan Idaho in Chapter House.

[@ronvansover]

Quinn do you think Part Three will include aspects of Children of Dune? I wonder if Denis would want to conclude the trilogy with Paul walking in the desert alone to die or we will already see him preaching and see his death and the film could end with the birth of the twins. I just think that if he really wants to have Paul’s arc go full circle in the end, then it should end with his death (real death not desert exile) and the birth of his children.

[@Mighty_Atheismo]

Tbh I hope they backfill some stuff from the second half of Dune -- e.g. the guild.

[@robweissman5952]

Quinn ... definitely had a part in making Dune what it is today

[@mauriciofontes]

That's high quality journalism here, Quinn. You began the video immediately sharing the source of the news and presenting a timeline of the facts (Denis merely saying he wanted to do; then Legendary confirming it). In the era of bullshit fake news that's much appreciated.

[@dianakerekes3220]

6:54 I dont remember the human face spider thing from the 1st movie, what scene is that?

[@boardmandave]

Dune is an absolute masterpiece... Dune 2 is hands down the greatest film I've ever seen, it is an audio visual triumph. Big thanks to Shai-Hulud for the worm riding scene with headphones on

[@AtamskArchadian]

I am practically vibrating with excitement at the knowledge that were (possibly, unless the next is also made a 2 part movie) one step away from the advent of the God Emperor. Addendum: That Children of Dune novel cover at 2:53 is fire.

[@awesomehpt8938]

Can Dune messiah be turned into a good movie that a wider audience can enjoy? Messiah doesn’t have that build up to an exciting climax that Dune has. Messiah is mostly just secret plotting and philosophical discussion amongst the characters. Everything has gone wrong and Paul has kinda become the bad guy despite his best intentions. There’s no final battle or any major action it’s just a lot personal drama for Paul and Chani and the other people he knows. That might be good for book readers but how will a general audience experience it after how Dune part 2 ended. Sure messiah is a shorter book which makes it easier to fit into one movie. But I dunno. Dune messiah is more like soap opera than space opera.

[@fruitygarlic3601]

Who can even say? That's the fun. To add action without taking away the impact of the slower moments, we may see more of the Fremen's journey, like their adaptation to naval warfare or the atrocities.

[@mr9ine138]

There's the stoneburner scene, and Paul walking around with no eyes flying the ornithopter like a boss. The final fight with Scytale when Paul uses Leto II as his eyes. Alia overdosing on spice and getting her stomach pumped. Alia practicing with her knife in the nude. There's enough there to make some interesting scenes besides the talking scenes.

[@equigs]

I've watched dune 2 a few times and then bought it and watched it maybe four more times. It's soooo good.

[@bigsarge2085]

Yes! I just read an article about this!

[@tabithawolf6077]

Bless the maker and his water! May the spice flow! I CAN’T WAIT! Villeneuve’s got this!

[@jaelinbrown2849]

youtube says “no views” and i feel like Lisan Al Ghaib

[@Grimmance]

2:15 Dune: someone charismatic will always come along and mouth your beliefs while taking hold of the reins of your religious belief Dune Messiah: your chosen messiah will lead you down the path of useful self destruction culling your number rendering you less destructive to him but also bonding you further to his cause outside your religious purview. Herbert knew how politicians were willing to use radicals for their own ends.

[@vng]

It would be great if Denis took in an "apprentice" who shadows him throughout the production of Dune Messiah, then go on to become the next director to create Children of Dune and God Emperor of Dune. And then the next "apprentice" does the same shadowing during production, and creates Heretics of Dune and Chapterhouse: Dune. This should ensure some kind of continuity and consistency while allowing each movie to have a bit of freshness in style and ideas to make them relevant and exciting.

[@ellugerdelacruz2555]

3:29 NO. THERE MUST NOT BE *ANY* ADAPTATION BEYOND GOD-EMPEROR. Such a thing is a bad idea on all levels and if the Star Wars Sequels have shown us thing. It's that such continuations will *always* suck.

[@FeannaFey]

Only if he cares about the story the later books are telling. It's one thing to tell a story about being weary of heroes and deconstructing the chosen one trope and commenting on religious fundamentalism and religious wars. It's another thing to want to tell a story about how humans need to become invisible to prescience to escape extinction via hunting robots. These two things are not better or worse, but the same creator isn't necessarily inspired to tell them. Even if, given the current state of "AI" and "AI-art", there could be a fascinating topical story in there.

[@erichagen8053]

I agree with you on the tv ideas. That's a great idea! With TV, they can explore the dialogues more than they can in the cinematic theatre. The social commentary that Frank does will spawn some crazy comments! Buckle Up!!

[@tcironbear21]

I think Herbert's message resonates so much with us because we have seen the dangers of charismatic leaders combined with poorly planned mythologizing. If the Bene Ghezerit hadn't planted myths, Paul would have died to the first Fremen band he encountered. If the thwarted racists had not spent 50 years sprinkling heresy in Christianity, Trump would just be a retired reality star.

[@WeyrleaderZor]

With how good they did with Part 1 and 2, I am VERY excited for this! I HOPE they keep up the great work.

[@darrylflynn1400]

Fantastic news finally going beyond on a big scale

[@TonySalazar933]

I honestly thought the first part would never get made. I'm so glad it's been done so well that there's demand for more.

[@Blawatowski]

We are on the Golden Path right now

[@PeloquinDavid]

You do realize the "Golden Path" is a hugely ironic term, right?

[@Blawatowski]

@@PeloquinDavid it's an only way we can make it

[@orion7873]

This gives me hope for America ... I first read Dune back about 20 years ago and at the time I thought "nah, they'll never make another Dune movie, people are just too stupid to get it". Yet, here it is. It is good... and people seem to like it and get it. Although, I took my father-in-law to see Dune part 2 after he watched part 1 at home. After the movie, he asked me "so, what is spice?" I just laughed...

[@nickyqcarter.q9208]

I don’t see any reason why they can’t make the last 4 books into movies without Villeneuve. I’d love to see other visionary filmmakers tackle this world, with Villeneuve as a Producer and a guiding hand. I’d really love to see Dune as a 7 film saga in total!

[@thebozzIDW]

Just finished watching Dune part two, literally a few minutes ago, I’m definitely invested in seeing where it goes from here

[@theartofpimpin]

OH SHIT! LETS GO!

[@notmyname4790]

Anyone who saw Blade Runner 2049 knew that Denis was the person to adapt this book. They took their time, expanded the runtime to cover to content of the book. So glad he’s sticking with it and glad he’s willing to step away and let others pick up after his work. Hopefully he will mentor some crew to continue a coherent vision for the movies

[@Comment66]

Holy stoneburner

[@reynoldsmathey]

To quote Shadout Mapes - 'Ayyyyiiiiii! When you've lived with the prophesy for so long, the moment of revelation becomes a shock.'

[@workingmamma5342]

Wonder if Zimmer will create the semuta music...that would be so cool!

[@Bookspine5]

Richard D. James may pull it off.

[@andrewcharles4349]

Dune Messiah might be my favorite Dune book. Have you ever read Paul of Dune? Its easily my favorite Brian Herbert book. It takes place between Dune and Dune Messiah. I think many aspects of that book were clearly an influence on Dune part 2. I really like that book. It really highlights the fanaticism of the Fremen and dives deeper into characters like the Lady Fenring and others. So many wow moments in that book. In my most recent read of the Dune saga I threw Paul of Dune right in the mix and it fit in so well. Highly recommend.

[@coolbombprime986]

I imagine some details from “Paul of a dune” will be included in Messiah to expand and explore the time jump

[@UpcycleShoesKai]

God Emperor!

[@dirkvoltaar]

I’m so excited for this! I love _Messiah_ so much. It complete’s the Paul-Chani arc and I feel like _Children_ starts the Leto II arc. Paul going into the dessert could be so epic! Hait, Scytale, Bijaz, Alia! Agh!

[@jimmywrangles]

YAY...Long live the fighters.

[@j.av.2675]

I’m halfway through Heretics now and happy messiah is coming. I’d be interested in seen another director tackle Children of Dune and specially God Emperor with someone as talented as Guillermo del Toro for example.

[@jessesturgeon5327]

I wonder what Jessica and Gurney will do in Dune 3, they aren't in Dune Messiah from what I remember

[@Norp-i7m]

They'll sandwalk in the background of every shot.

[@clintsheppard9699]

That eight-legged human face thing the Baron had was indeed out of left field. I wonder if it's a Harkonnen creation, or something from the Tleilaxu. Very excited for Messiah!!
