She'll come back and with their first child in hand. I can't wait!

[@relint12]

I think she’ll come back towards the end but only after Paul relinquishes control and blindly ‘walks into the desert’. A lot of Paul’s visions will continue to have been misdirections. Especially anything around Paul, Chani and some twins.

[@stephengrant4841]

@@relint12 That wouldn't make a lot of sense. he only goes into the desert because A) he's blind and B) he can't use his prescience to see due to grief over Chani's death. How would the twins be born?

He sees a lot of different universes. This was said before he killed the Baron iirc, and the book says when he kills the Baron their was a bad timeline

[@relint12]

@@stephengrant4841 I expect the timeline to be shuffled quite a bit with Chani leaving. Paul won’t be able to find her until he’s blinded and gets that huge burst of foresight, turns over the keys to the empire and walks directly to Chani. As the man she fell in love with not the Emporer. In this timeline the twins may or may not have already been born shortly after Paul and Chani split.

[@botistelockhart5078]

Agreed, I think that this is the point many reviewers are missing. Evening calling him Vader. Despite what the “authors” intentions were in the book, his movie depiction makes the decision more complex. His choice is watch your people and the woman you love be eradicated, which is the entire life of his new found family, or eradicate the people that wants to cause you harm. It really is a tough choice

[@jimmyb2655]

I think what Villeneuve is doing is brilliant. He is staying true to the source material, while also giving us book readers a twist that makes sense. He is showing us things that the book merely glanced over; and, if people really want to know more, all they have to do is read the books. These movies are expanding on the books. If the first 15-20 minutes of Part 3 is a Holy War in space and on different planets spanning 10 years-15 years, the movies can stay in line with the books timeline. An opening montage would totally work. It can also show Chani coming back to Paul, and the Bene Gesserit influencing Irulan to sabotage Paul and Chani relationship. When Messiah is released and successful, I wouldn't mind Villeneuve stepping down as director; but, staying on as producer, and hand picking the next Director. Maybe Jonathan Nolan? He did a killer job with Westworld Season One. An unknown Director, that Villeneuve trusts, could also be an awesome fit. I also want to See Jason Mamoa again as Duncan Idaho.

[@martini87c]

Does Duncan Idaho dies and never returns in the books ? I was kind of skeptical how how real was Jason Mamoas death in the movie especially when the camera showed how peaceful his face looked almost as if he was not completely dead.

[@cgoins1993]

I think the next movie should be entirely the holy war and then Messiah should be 2 parts

[@pinkfloydguy7781]

@@cgoins1993 I don’t think they’ll do that, because the only book that details events between Dune and Messiah is Paul of Dune, written by Brian Herbert after his father’s death, and most fans of Frank Herbert’s Dune books do not consider Brian’s books to be canonical. I mean, I guess most Dune fans just don’t consider them at all. I am going to give them a fair shot, when I eventually finish Chapterhouse lol. But it would be kind of boring and not really fit the tone of the Dune franchise. Frank Herbert didn’t really care to expand that much on 12 years of holy war. It’s enough to show the impact it has on Fremen culture.

That you so much for explaining the blue thing with chani. Had no idea

[@CrniWuk]

Paul does not fear the "Golden Path" due to the billions of deaths, as they will already happen with the Jihad that he started to solidify his position as new Emperor. Infact, Paul didn't start the "Golden Path" at all. The "Golden Path" is a vision of the future with the intention to save humanity as a whole and it would take millennia to accomplish and it would require from Paul to give up his humanity completely to make it happen. This is what he couldn't bring himself to do he was not ready to become a god like immortal entity so that he could actually create this path for humanity. So in the end it was his son Leto II. who actually did it by becoming the God Emperor.

[@KermitOfWar]

Doesn't his son become a half worm/human hybrid? Hence how becomes the God Emperor? 🐛

[@CrniWuk]

@@KermitOfWar Yes. He does that to gain near Immortality and shedding his "humanity" as the Golden Path had to be followed over such a long time no one with a short lifetime like a human could ever fully understand and actually go trough with it. And Paul, simply didn't want to "give up" his humanity.

[@underlyingaxiom1509]

@@KermitOfWar We see in the books though, that they have complete control over their body chemistry with Alia stopping her aging and even Leto II manipulating the little Maker to fuse with it. It would've been possible for Paul to make himself immortal without the worm. However, fusing with the worm gives Leto II an endless supply of spice internally, so he is constantly tapped into SpiceVision in which he is always seeing the future all the time (and the superhuman strength, too).

[@MattParody]

Thank you. Exactly.

[@QuestionableAdviser_]

In a sense, Paul is gathering the materials. Leto II is laying the foundation.

[@Innate_genitals.]

People are forgetting the two branching timelines Paul sees in the book. One where he stands over the Baron saying “hello, grandfather”. And that timeline haunted him to his core. Thats the timeline we are seeing in the movies i believe. A timeline where Paul takes the Water of Life 2 years earlier etc etc

[@psora1]

It makes sense! I didnt understand why they didnt do the time skip in the movie, cause I find it essential for the development of Paul's character (he loses his firstborn and they kidnap his sister). Without these, I think his decision to dethrone the Emperor is a little less impactful

[@Innate_genitals.]

@@psora1 i mean other than the fact his father, Duncan and his entire house beside his mother were wiped out by the Harkonnens and Emperor. His wanting to dethrone the emperor was shown in dune1 and still holds impact. But that does add more to it. But this Paul has taken a different path from the book. A path that in the book, he said haunted him to his core.

These books are really amazing, really undervalued by many.

[@Shan_Dalamani]

Those aren't canon. If you want the real Butlerian Jihad that was FH-approved, read the Dune Encyclopedia by Dr. Willis McNelly. That's the grown-up version that doesn't rely on cartoonish Terminator ripoffs.

[@ThaGamingMisfit]

@@Shan_Dalamani He approved it because he found it amusing. To me that's the same level of invented by others than the books witten by his son. And of course he couldn't approve those, because guess what, Frank wasn't alive to approve it. But sure some people rather stick to one thing and call it the absolute truth and all the rest is for and by plebs.

[@Shan_Dalamani]

@@ThaGamingMisfit He wouldn't have approved of the nuDune BS because it was just made-up BS that was a blatant ripoff of the Terminator movies. It had NOTHING to do with the established canon that FH had already written. FH and Dr. McNelly had plans to collaborate on a Butlerian Jihad novel. Sadly FH died before they could do that. It would have been fantastic.

[@paulholmes672]

@@Shan_Dalamani That is interesting when you say McNelly's Encyclopaedia was canon, when Mr. McNelly says it was not, especially when he was allowed to see Frank Herbert's notes. Also, Frank Herbert indicated he endorsed the attempt, not all the so called facts stated. His exact quote was " scholarly bypaths and amusing sidelights. Some of the contributions are sure to arouse controversy, based as they are on questionable sources." end quote. All of the Prequels and Sequels were based on the aforementioned notes. Yes, there may have been quite a bit of license going on, because notes are just that, notes or outlines and details needed to be fleshed out.

[@aidankeefe1793]

this the vid ive been waiting for. thank you

[@BuzyMamma]

Thank you for acknowledging the changes. Big fan of the book, so it was notable when they completely changed the ending. Great point with the blue scarf, never even thought about it. I think chani will come back to Paul. There is a reference in the end of the book about powerful women. Alia shouldn’t be a problem in the time jump. Remember because of the water of life, she grows faster than her actual chronicle age. 1984 dune mentioned this quickly, it’s talked about in the books. So even though she was 2-3 chronically, she looked like a 7-8 year old. Same can be true with Anya playing this character. With the time jump she can be anywhere from 12-14 years old, but look like a fully grown adult.

[@jrbeckwith8600]

I fear that a film adaptation of anything beyond Paul’s story will just be weird.

[@DropBear_42]

Unfortunately :(( the twins are 🐐’d but no way in hell can they find actors who look the part to perform the part properly. Even if they make them a bit older, unless they’re high school looking. That’s probably why they took that route with Alia as well. Maybe they could’ve done some telepathy shit but then the movie would have been 3+ hours

[@underlyingaxiom1509]

Yeah, i had always imagined an anime series of Leto II as emperor and each episode or season would tell of the past or the future as he saw it and could recount all of the novels at literally any pace because as he saw it, it would basically be the same thing. There's even a scene in one of the later books where a main character randomly stumbles across a cache of spice left there just because he knew she would find it. He would be the perfect narrator.

[@DavidMalcolm]

First off, I just wanna say kudos to you for giving shoutouts to your editors. It may seem like a small thing, but editors matter, the people working behind the scenes matter and they deserve to have credit and they deserve the chance to gain a reputation and maybe move on to larger better paying projects. So often everyone from big companies to small businesses think that if they give their employees recognition and fair pay that they'll get 'big heads' and demand more (or just demand to be paid in line with the value of their work.) I get that especialy for a small channel (wait ... 1.58 million subs... did not relaize how big this channel was) it can be hard to pay people as much as you might want to. I have no idea what your pay structure is but at least giving people credit for their work is fantastic from an ethical point of view. Secondly, thanks for this video. I've been watching a few (actually this is the second one) about the future plot of Dune books. I've thought of reading them, but a friend of mine who's read them mentioned to me that, "Yeah they're great, but the author was definitely homophobic. There's some queer stuff in it, but it's all bad." So I don't think I really want to put the effort into reading them. (Also, while I pay be tempted to end my books on a sour note when I write them, fuck if I wanna read that!) I do think that the mythos and what not of Dune seems really interesting and definitely subversive. But I also wouldn't be surprised if moving on any future adaptations have to change more and more of the plot to make it coherent. When you have casted actors that the audience loves, it can be much less motivating to show up to the next movie. I wondered if Dune Messiah might need to be two movies but I just looked up the word count, it's less than half the size of the first book so I guess they could probably make that into one movie. Ultimately these are being made by WB so they'll probably milk the franchise until it's dead.

[@mich722]

Will be interesting to see how the ghola 'Hayt' is depicted as a Zensunni mentat/philosopher and whether he will have metallic eyes as well. In the book, this version of the character was depicted as quite mild mannered in comparison, as he was not trained as a warrior.

The sandworm poison also speeds up her development in the books, so they could still stick to the 12 year time jump and just say she aged really quickly

[@greggesaman535]

As mentioned, there is so much material in the Dune Universe. The six primary books, and also the Brian Herbert prequels and sequels (a love\hate issue for the book readers), that would all be great movie material. Momentum seems to be building here. There is an opportunity to make this a new Sci Fi film franchise. That kind of opportunity is very rare. It would be an enormous waste by the studio for long-term success and profit to stop after 3 movies - just a third of the primary Frank Herbert books.

[@KingOfMadCows]

It wasn't just the war that killed 60 billion people. A lot of the deaths are due to Paul's control over the Spacing Guild through his control of Spice. The Spacing Guild has a monopoly on interstellar travel because they're the only ones who can safely navigate folded space. And they do it with Navigators who have been mutated by the Spice, and these Navigators need Spice to survive. So by controlling the Spice, Paul can force the Spacing Guild to cut off entire worlds from trade, starving them out. This is a big part in how he's able to fight against the Great Houses, their armies can't do anything without the Spacing Guild to transport them to different planets. They'll probably have to make a longer time jump. In the book, Alia is around 16. If they plan on having Anya Taylor-Joy play Alia, she's not going to be 16. So I think either Dune Messiah movie will start like 20 - 22 years after Dune part 2 or they'll put a time jump in Dune Messiah where it starts 12 years after part 2 and then have a time jump to 8 or 10 years later.

[@epiphanytorock5284]

I wonder if they will cut the book into 2 also ? With the first part being the war against great houses with a small time jump and the second part with a big time jump and the rest of the story

[@nataliajimenez1870]

I like the idea presented in this video where there won't be a large time jump and Paul would be speaking with his grown sister (played by Anya Taylor-Joy) through visions and she will constantly remind him when he's straying from the path they have chosen for him. The movie needs to show the genocidal holy war. The different factions can plot against Paul without a need for a large time jump

[@justinschramer7548]

Take elements of Children, like Jessica returning half way through the film to plot against Alia and to try to save Paul. That give her a bigger character arc, going from Dukes concubine and protective mother to grieving survivalist refugee to scheming manipulating antagonist, to realizing her daughters “abomination” and the cost of their plotting on humanity in the form of Pauls Holy War. She can then have a redemption arc where she tries to save paul and expose Alia, becoming the protective mother once again. This way Fergeson can be in the movie and also have a satisfying charcter arc

[@lashebawinston4906]

​@@justinschramer7548 I always thought Alia was a tragic figure with the possession of her grandfather and her being abandoned by her mother.

[@arvelcrynyd6311]

I don’t think so. If they stretched the first book into two movies then Messiah can certainly be one, as it’s around half the length of the first Dune book. The Sci-Fi channel did that, but that’s a different format, it was a 3 part miniseries in which the first episode was Messiah and the other two episodes were Children of Dune (despite the miniseries just being titled “Children of Dune”). Basically, I think you only need one 2.5-3 hour movie for Messiah, as it’s the shortest book in the series. This way they can actually title the film “Dune: Messiah” instead of just blending it in with Children, like Sci-Fi Channel did. If they do Messiah I really hope they end up doing up to at least Children though, Messiah ends on somewhat of a downer, at the very least it’s not much of a conclusion.

Please don’t wait too long. My father (a MASSIVE fan of the franchise) died of cancer between the initial intended release date of part 1 and the actual release date. Watching it with him was something I was desperate to do. :( Take the time you need to make a fantastic product. But we are entrusting you with so much more than just a movie. This is a legacy. And so far you haven’t let us down.

[@cyclone876]

I love how all these breakdowns say different things about Paul's choices and if he's the hero or the villain of the story

[@CodiMorphett]

He is not the hero - Paul is a false prophet - he is encouraged by everyone around him to exploit the religious beliefs of the Fremen instilled in them centuries ago by the Bene Gesserit to further his own goal - Revenge for his fathers murder. He's not the Kwisatz Haderach, he's just someone who can easily be slotted into that role. After he drinks the water of life you can see him change and pursue his own goals relentlessly.

[@jordangate7742]

This video was awesome

[@ShaozenSC]

Based on the movie version of things, Paul starts the holy war or the Fremen are wiped out...if Chani comes to understand that maybe it's better than the alternative. It's all up for grabs with the changes made lol

[@elm457]

One of the best reviews ever

[@Sim-Peasant]

XD i just realized the dog calls you person XD

[@BillGunslinger]

It will hurt me so much to wait for the next decade for Messiah...

[@chriswickham1279]

The dune books are incredible

[@BrantK147]

Part two was so amazing!!!

[@nevbo]

I didn’t know MAX was going to do a prequel series based on Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson’s prequel books! Are we going to eventually get to see the Machine Crusade and all that rich history on the small screen? I just got way too excited lol

[@feyisbored]

In the book Alia kills Baron Harkonnen which drove her mad as an adult. This is an important plot thread that I’m wondering if that will even be included now

[@BrodieOT7]

Every video I’ve seen so far has talked about Paul’s “betrayal” to Chani. Now I have never read the books but the idea I got from the film was Paul was doing that to protect her. He has seen images of her dying and I was wondering if he followed the path of marrying irulan to prevent Chani’s death. Many times during the end of the movie Paul made eye contact with Chani almost evidence he still cares for her. The more obvious evidence is when he says he will love her until his last breath.

[@annk1019]

Chani doesn't 'leave' Paul, she goes south and knows that Paul marries Irulan as a political convenience, not a love match, Chani will always have his heart and will have his children, Irulan gets nothing physical/emotional. I'm so pleased that you are pointing out the differences so I don't have to rant on, thank you! The film(s) are really well made, the books are infinitely better. I think Alia of the Knife could have been included, she killed Baron Harkonnen in the book, in the film she's still in utero!!!! It's a pity that the Guild Navigators were completely omitted too!

[@ryanrichardson9915]

Haven’t read the books, but from what little I’ve seen in some of the “Lore Videos”, I wonder how much Acid Frank Herbert took while writing the series? A Worm person thing?? I love the movies, and they make sense all on their own (if you have an imagination).

[@willcormier8485]

I just need the half worm emperor to happen on the big screen.

[@komplex6081]

No you don't. That sort of adaption from the books would be better in a tv show

[@WakenerOne]

I have been saying all week that I think Villeneuve is making a composite character out of Chani and Korba. The biggest key to me is that in Part 2, Chani refers to herself as one of the Fedaykin. In the book, NONE of the Fedaykin were female. Also, Korba was completely absent from the movie, whereas he was prominent enough in the book to have been included in both the 1984 film AND the 2000 miniseries . . . and of course, he had a major part to play in the Dune Messiah portion of the Children of Dune miniseries. I believe that Chani will come back into Paul's trust, for better or for worse. For very specific reasons, Paul will not allow Irulan to have any children, and the twins have to be born. And as the host mentions here, Irulan does participate in the conspiracy against Paul in Dune Messiah, however, Paul forgives her - and he does so for even more very specific reasons having to do with her wanting to bear his heir, and what she does in her attempts to bring that to pass . . . and the inadvertent side effect of those attempts. The heartbreaking decision Paul makes at the end of the second book will carry more dramatic weight if it follows Chani fulfilling not only her role as outlined in the book, but Korba's role, as well.

[@MrErrorKoNaRski]

My biggest gripe with the Part Two is the time span between Paul escaping into the desert and his confrontation with the Emperor. In the books Alia was about four during the showdown with the Emperor meaning Paul had about 5 years to learn the Fremen ways, bond with them, fall in love and nourish his relation with Chani, accelerate the terraformation of Dune (which is also a huge part of why the Fremen were so devoted to him) and then rally the people, annoy the Harkonnen and scare the crap out of the rest of the universe enough to incite an open war with the empire. In Part Two he did all of this in less then 9 months. Jessica was "a few weeks" into the pregnancy before the Treason and was still pregnant during the finale...

[@BabyKMoney]

It all can’t be captured properly, but the reason is Jessica can’t give birth yet there just wasn’t room for how important it really is

[@komplex6081]

My guy, you're comparing a novel to a two hour and a half movie. They are two different things. The only true way to get a tit for tat novel to movie adaptation is through making a TV show with multiple seasons and episodes. DV is doing a fantastic job with how much leeway he's being given.

[@sanah6933]

Gosh how long do you want the movie to be jeez

[@austinhaider105]

What is the show/movie that you show during the ending 'spoiler' section of the video??

[@Hdub8526]

I sac-religiously watched it on put locker cuz I couldn’t wait and it was still amazing

[@aazarzabal9250]

sr thank you for the amazing video, i just finished dune 2 and thanks to your explanation i can sleep well.

[@jasonbrown9142]

Paul is never the villain Darth Vader was. Rather he is a victim of his own knowledge. He has to play the part of Emperor for a bit to make the golden path happen but he hates it It’s hard to believe the third movie will really make Channi his enemy. That would be d really warp the books. But she is the enemy of Imperial Court, Ireland and its intrigue. Her and Paul will reconcile but neither of these characters is meant to survive. The movies cast them as the main characters of the Dunverse but readers of the series know they are not. The story isn’t about a hero, it’s about the evolution of a society and the factions that make it up. It’s about the transformation of humanity, the golden path and an external threat that sadly the author didn’t survive to build out.

[@arvelcrynyd6311]

If they make “Messiah” I really hope they make films up to “Children of Dune”, while “Messiah” ends *somewhat* hopeful it’s also a bummer in a lot of ways. “Children” could be a good stopping point for the films though, as “God Emperor” is really weird and may be the most difficult to adapt to screen. “Messiah” can be done in one film, as it’s the shortest book in the series. Then we could close out the series with another two-parter in “Children”, nice and symmetrical.

[@peterbui3733]

After all is said and done, someone in the boardroom whispers, "Dune Multiverse"

[@cezartb]

Chani literally not wanting a white saviour.

[@TeeJ_FPS]

Bro this editing has me dying 😂😂😂😂

[@janebeville7446]

Please review Cabrini. The most empowering and uplifting movie I've seen in a long time.

[@WeAreLegion-]

Duncan Idaho resurrection will be dope

[@seanj3667]

I know Leto II likes his Duncans.

[@donaldgrump5393]

Looking forward to seeing a giant half-worm, half-man on IMAX in the next movie

[@yarnvials5874]

You will be disappointed. We don't meet Leto II as the worm hybrid until God Emperor of Dune, the 4th book...we'd still have to get through an adaption of Children of Dune before that 3500 year time jump.

[@rorycollin4185]

I really wanted to see more navigators and the voice modules

[@kengseong]

hi Ryan what is the name of movie you used at the end of this video during explanation of chani twins?

[@gwillgi2]

that was from the 2003 miniseries on sci-fi channel 'children of dune'

[@seanj3667]

Attack of the Clones. That's when the twins are born and mom dies.

[@avidcule]

Paul is a tragic hero though, the birth of Leto Atreides II and him seeing the golden path is literally what saves humanity.

[@kajtekmccranck9978]

cool vid! very helpful to understand Dune and the following events

[@prooggroo7597]

The ultimate fan service, chair dogs, please.

[@jasonlee0290]

Jessica: Alia go to your room! Alia: But I am in my room..

[@KarentheWriter]

Please review Cabrini--we thought it was excellent!

[@aking89]

This would be even better as a series.

[@ImDavan]

This man doesn’t miss

[@invicturion7390]

God Emperor of Dune is a trip and a half....

[@angelag669]

Not a trippy as the next 2 books. I have read all of them twice and my brain is still mush from reading Heretics and Chapterhouse.

[@MiniatureMasterClass]

@@angelag669There is nothing trippy about the next two books. God Emperor is full of psychobabble and freshmen level political science rants. I still think its the best book because 400 pages of a giant man-worm being an a**hole due to boredom is hilarious.

[@komplex6081]

​@MiniatureMasterClass how do you feel about the movies?

[@willywonka4690]

More Dune. Please. Always

[@MalzaHaps]

The introduction of clones will give us Duncan Idaho back and alit of them. Still yah boy was the man in number 1 dude killed like 10 Sardukar

[@rascon97]

2:16 thank you doug, I hessitant to watch this video because I didn't want potential spoilers Edit: Ryan: I will not bring any mayor spoilers about the book. Also Ryan (7:40): "This is a mayor plotpoint of the next book" 🙃

[@emilishungry]

do you guys have vidieos like this but with spoilers instead?

[@SpeedosAndTheGun]

I’m so sure that Leto the worm god is the voice we hear at the start of the movies. I really want to eventually see this on screen

[@nelhitemup7342]

What voice?

[@SpeedosAndTheGun]

@@nelhitemup7342 yh at the start of both movies there’s a weird booming voice speaking in a strange language

[@mbon607]

Given Chani is the mother of all Pauls children and the children are the most important future characters, not sure how she does not come back

[@badwolf4849]

The problem is you are getting further and further from the books They shouldn't mess with the Masterpeices that the books were.

[@JaccovanSchaik]

I'm reminded of Game of Thrones. Great as long as they followed the books, but when they ran out and they had to think stuff up themselves it all turned to shit.Hope this doesn't happen to Dune. But that last scene in Part 2 has me worried. I hope Denis hasn't painted himself into a corner with this one.

[@komplex6081]

​@@JaccovanSchaikDV knows what he's doing. These movies have garnered more positive feedback in relation to the books than the other movies and TV shows lol

[@vw7667]

The pregnancy part makes sense because we didn’t need their love scene in the movie otherwise- I felt like it was dropped in & could have been without

[@MJC1891]

That movie was something else. I loved it.

[@birdz9252]

I just watched the movie last night. The movie was overall really good, Especially the 3rd act. Considering how long this movie took i don't think we will get another with this cast. The time cuts were a bit bad and it felt like we didnt need the beginning of the movie.

[@iscmgdr]

Do you think Chani leaves? I got the impression that at the very end, she hesitates about riding the sand worm and leaving Paul.

[@scorpiovenator_4736]

Just watched dune for the 2nd time, I can't wait for the 3rd movie

[@usuckthereturn]

Has someone contacted Jason Momoa for endless sequels?!

[@zebooka]

HAHAHA ))))

[@seanj3667]

I'm most of the way through God Emperor and I just keep picturing him.

[@ch33psk8]

Chani says go south, Paul says no. Again Chani says go south. Paul says no, everything will go to sh*t if i do. Paul eventually goes south and then the holy war begins. Love is blindness.

[@throwdowninolytown]

Never read the books or seen the previous movies. I’m positive the visions Paul saw was Chani coming back to fight against him. That’s the deaths he could have avoided had he not took the highborn lady’s hand.

[@GalacticBlader]

lmfao best bit in the entiere video right HERE 1:37 ALSO how we dune fans feel about the movies

[@pandoramidnight]

What were the other dune clips inserted from??

[@Kingjames111]

Damn dune has been the peak writing everyone has been leaching off of for decades

[@seanj3667]

Mostly George Lucas.
