PAUL ATREIDES ARRIVES - Dune Part 2

The fact that this scene is the one that goes right before the speech, it's like they don't let you breathe or think long enough to not get swept up in it.

Many people fail to notice he isn't using the fremen walk so to turn up to that crowd in this fashion is already a vader entrance.

[@nomadicstrength]

MFer literally strolled up there with a worm (a fuckin massive one) breaching behind him.

[@JohnKim-wx6vt]

@@nomadicstrengththe question is, how? Can one tame those huge worms? I thought they just had to kinda hop on them for a ride

[@nomadicstrength]

@@JohnKim-wx6vt no clue. Yeah they ride them but that's based on irritating them (hold open the skin flaps with hooks). Paul in this scene I feel like is fulfilling that one part of the prophecy of "He will know the ways of the desert " like he's SO connected to it that he's basically the environment in and of itself, and therefore can't be perceived by the worms as a person, any more than the wind.

[@ahmedabdelmagid3109]

and Shai Hulud behind him but can’t do anything

[@gaiahunter3863]

It is a rocky area, so no sandworms. And the sandworm behind Paul is the one he rode there, so it's tired. Once the worm is tired you simply roll down as the worm will just bury.

[@throwawayinternetrp]

The Sandworm in this scene might not just be there for simple dramatic effect, assuming it's not the one Paul arrived in. It could be that footsteps summoned it there, since Paul wasn't sandwalking here, but his foresight probably helped him avoid danger in some way or another. If that's the case, imagine what the Fremen's impressions were, seeing this man ignoring every precaution, and yet never being at risk. It was almost one of Paul's ways of demonstrating power, stating that nothing could touch him now, even the Shai Hulud

[@trenhen4311]

The sandworm is how he got there no? His lax towards the sandworm was probably done with intent of subjugating them. Like u said they’d be in their heads thinking “holy fuck even shai halud bows to this man” which would further his agenda of ruling of their will.

[@KC_Smooth]

That’s a really cool theory, but I think he simply rode that sand worm there lol.

[@throwawayinternetrp]

[@mawile3037]

​@@dearcastiel4667sir or ma'am, you clearly missed the part where the Reveren Mother says that they have many prospects, Feyd was suppose to produce the Q.H not it be Paul on his own Also, in the book, it's both, him, Feyd, and Count Fenring who were all at some point at the end of multiple bloodlines crossing Fenring, is stated as basically being a failed prospect, and Feyd not too far behind Had it been Feyd on Arrakis in the desert chances are he would have at least been considered as Lisan al Gaib

[@lcbryant78]

He’s the only person who can walk normally on Arrakis and not get eaten. Cold blooded and stone faced.

@@edwarddelgado4207 That makes me wonder about the scene in the first movie were the worm just stays there facing Paul... and now this after he fully becomes Kwisatz Haderach. He seems to have an affinity with worms that goes beyond mere wormriding. Just a thought.

@@jakobrenner2230Rarely spoken about so I might be totally wrong on this, but to me it sounded like the worm was chuckling/laughing at him. Like it KNEW. Creepy and badass at the same time.

[@matthewkrulitski8788]

@@user-jk5um1om8l To make the powers of his series completely scientific, Herbert had to embrace a lot of junk science that ended up being revealed irl as hokum (genetically encoded memory and prescience just being Hyper-Mentat calculation). With modern genetics having found no genetically encoded memory (but perhaps access is still genetically possible), the Other Memory has to be stored somewhere, perhaps metaphysically, with a similar source for Prescience (the mentat training just being helpful in not going insane while sorting all possible timelines). In other words, the worm MIGHT HAVE BEEN, psychedelic fungoid demigod that it is. It's just that the Bene Gesserit have put all their eggs into the rationalist basket, hoping that all the abilities they use and seek have purely biological and psychological roots, spreading this cynicism among the Landsraad elite. Because, IF THEY'RE WRONG, then they've basically been raiding Gods liquor cabinet for the past ten thousand years. But now the big G has realized that the bottle is suspiciously light and has decided that, to teach the BG some humility, the next bottle is going to have a worm in it.

[@l.p.8298]

I love watching the crowd in this shot; they're all skeptical, but there's the palpable feeling of "it could be him" and the feeling of Paul literally not giving a fuck if they believe or not; his sureness is scary.

[@KingCraze22]

He’s lived that moment thousands of times already.

[@TheDrexxus]

Some people in the comments seem to be confused, so let me clarify. At this point in the story, Paul has perfect prescience. He can see all possible futures and knows what every choice and action will result with. This is what allows him to do the coolest most badassed motherfucking walk possible, because he already knows which manner of walking will make him look the coolest while also not getting eaten by a worm.

[@MiguelitoGH9]

Exactly 🔥

[@seinzid]

100% Paul know the little details affect the outcome of his vision, he did exact of what he saw

[@miltontavares9506]

That´s some Darth Vader level of badassery right here.

[@timovangalen1589]

From this moment on, Paul was like a force of nature

[@trenhen4311]

Pretty much. He lost a core part of the human experience when he drank the water of life and thus he was no longer really human. What he’s carrying out goes entirely against his nature but he has no choice. He’s been reduced to vessel which carry’s out whatever fate his prescience tells him is optimal

[@nomadicstrength]

I want a god damn painting of that shot of Paul with the black robe and hood and the black sands and the sandworm breaching. That's just menacing as hell.

[@asophxs]

The scene when he walked through crowd is almost like a juxtaposition with the sandworms. Just as the worms bend and manipulate the stagnant sand like water, he who had become the lisan al gaib possesed the force and power to move the stagnant masses to his will. The cinematography and symbolism is amazing. And I wasnt sure if the dots in the landscape at the beginning were a massive amount of people, but if it was, and they all gave way to paul, then gives the scene more impressive magnitude

[@l.p.8298]

[@DoroteoVilla]

[@sametmendilli1455]

It has zero dialogue, but what it says with cinematography is worth 100 lines of dialogue.

[@pUrpLEsnake325]

I just now realized after telling my girlfriend about this scene last night and how we have to watch these movies together that with zero context if I just showed her this scene without telling her who this character was, or showing anyone this scene for that matter, most people would probably think this was the villain of the film arriving. And I guess that's kind of the point.
