Princess Irulan Introduction - Dune (1984)

A beginning is a very delicate time.
Know then that it is the year ten thousand and one, ninety one. The known universe is ruled by the Padishah Emperor, Shaddam the fourth, my father.
In this time the most precious substance in the universe is the Spice Melange. The Spice extends life, the Spice expands consciousness, the Spice is vital to space travel. The Spacing Guild and its Navigators who the Spice has mutated over four thousand years use the orange Spice gas, which gives them the ability to fold space, that is travel to any part of the universe without moving.
Oh yes, I forgot to tell you, the Spice exists on only one planet in the entire universe, a desolate, dry planet, with vast deserts. Hidden away within the rocks of these deserts are a people known as the Fremen, who have long held a prophecy that a man would come, a messiah, who would lead them to true freedom.
The planet is Arrakis, also known as Dune.

She is so beautiful! and nailed the role as Irulan.

Yeah, it's a bummer we didn't get to see her as Irulan in subsequent films and in raising the twins.

Giger didn't work on Lynch's "Dune". He worked on Jodorowsky's aborted adaptation and was supposed to work on Ridley Scott's version too before it got canned in favor of "Blade Runner".

[@galihjati443]

Somehow Irulan pops into my mind, she's really a jewel, but sadly her fate is quite tragic

[@zannaifacedancer5915]

Well, she lived in Arrakeen palace. The servants catered to her and she had plenty of time to write. She was not forced to go into exile like the rest of her family despite being a conspirator. Besides her life was forgiven after poisoning Chani. Finally she was able to raise Paul's children. Where exactly is the tragedy? Paul ignored her? Their marriage was just a political decision. So no, I do not feel sorry for her at all. For others it was much worse.

[@crinklescat1871]

Irulan was a political prisoner, she basically had no human connection and that’s why she wrote everything, they kept her because they wanted a hostage and the plus side of chanti treating her like crap and Paul using her because he knew nothing about politics and Irulan did, she actually did more for Paul’s house in the end than anyone . Paul would not allow her any type of love, and I can’t imagine how depressed she was. It’s good that she could snuff all of her emotions out because personally I would want to die. And Paul forgave her because she extended his concubines life because he had a vision she would die in childbirth, so he was actually grateful to her because he saw by Irulan doing that that he actually got more time with his concubine, who was also terrible as well. They both were. Irulan is a tragic figure and deserves better. She was separated from her sisters, and all she did was write books because that was really all she had to do. Paul and chanti made her life hell and constantly did everything they could to keep her in isolation. Paul is not a hero. The book starts out and you think it’s heroes journey but an actuality, Paul didn’t give a shit about anyone who was being oppressed. He just wanted power. And after his concubine dies, he literally screws off. Had it not been for Irulan his entire line would’ve died off. And she raised his kids and did a damn good job considering the ending. He owes her everything. But Paul is no hero. It was all about power. Irulan is the reason Paul‘s house did not die and ended up staying on the throne and she did that incredible incredible personal expense.

Actually, the spice just lets the navigators see into the future (which is needed to navigate safely at faster than light speeds). The machines do all the hard work. I take this from the books, though, don't remember if the movie changed that into space-folding or if it's just inconsistent.

[@undeadnightorc]

Apparently Virginia Madsen (Princess Irulan) was originally signed up for a trilogy. I never read the books, was Princess Irulan supposed to have a bigger role later? Other than this introduction monologue she never really does anything in Dune.

[@04nbod]

Yes. Paul marries her to secure the throne but refuses to touch her and keeps his side chick around. So Irulan plies Chani with contraceptives on the orders of the Bene Gesserit to stop any reproduction. Chani eventually finds out but dies giving birth to twins. Paul walks off into the desert to die leaving Irulan to raise the children. Paul is a major mess up. His son has to fulfil Paul's role in saving humanity while his daughter has children with Irulan's nephew to complete the breeding program for humanity's survival. All because Paul wouldn't man up and sleep with his wife.

[@cmsahe]

In the second novel: Dune Messiah she has an important role SPOILERS: she secretly gives contraceptives to Chani and conspires to kill the now Emperor Paul Muad'Dib but thru her actions she unwillingly extends the life of Chani and Paul thanks her (Paul already knew via his visions that Chani was going to die at childbirth), and spares Irulan her life in the final The Godfather-like execution sequence. Then in the third novel: Children of Dune, a repentant Irulan becomes the tutor of Paul's twin children: Leto II and Ghanima.

@storietellermusic The story is a bit difficult to follow if you haven’t read the book. The editing is choppy which leads to the story being somewhat unintelligible. The fx are less than stellar. All that said, there are many scenes that are simply perfect and I do prefer this version in many ways over Villeneuve’s, though his vision is glorious in its own right.

[@MihaiPruna]

The princess isn't that great at technical stuff, actually the spice only allows the navigators to do their navigating, by seeing the future, much like Paul Atreides does later. Ships need big engines to be able to travel faster than light, but without the navigators they have no control over where they end up.

[@Pwnstared]

Mihai is correct. The engines allow faster than light. The spice just lets you get there safely. You wouldn't want to fold into the middle of an asteroid field.

The machines were prone to non-standard strategies utilised by humans, had fought on two fronts (against Cymeks and humans) and overall lacked superior technologies and war contributions that somehow humans have developed. (such as Holtzman shields, hyperspace drive, non-standard melee warriors who could easily reap through several robots) Machines could rebuild from natural resources but humans could make organ-plants as well, rebuilding their own soldier.
