In one timeline he leads an army of Fremen to war, in another he and Jamus are friends and there is no future war in Paul's name. The stab fight at the end is the fulcrum on which Paul's future rests. By deciding to kill Jamus Paul is choosing his path.

For Dune, Makes a certain amount of sense not to film them back to back. In the book, there is a huge leap in time right away in the story, so it's a natural gap in story, and a good time to let the actors bulk up or physically change a bit.

[@alexjames2264]

I dont think they're gonna wait 5-10 years for the actors to age up

[@Triforcefilms]

@@alexjames2264 Clearly not🙄... But you understand why they aren't at all compelled or required to film both parts back to back.... right?

[@MonroeRepublic]

@@alexjames2264 that was a useless thing to say.

[@MonroeRepublic]

And so was that. And so is this.

[@Triforcefilms]

@@ThreadBomb you're missing my point. The question was "why not film them back to back?" The answer is "because they are meant to look different and older anyway, so there's no need to rush through it". Surely bulking up, looking slightly older, and just allowing time for excitement to build and secure funding/fanbase makes sense, Hmm? When there's a literal 2 year gap in the story, it makes perfect sense to wait 2 years between filming.

As someone who started One Piece less than a year ago and now ranks it among his favorite things ever (I've seen like 5 anime btw, read 1 manga) I feel it is a travesty that Mason has not read it.

Actually the shields in Dune will create a really big explosion if you shoot them, killing you and the person who you are trying to shoot. That's why they don't normally use guns.

[@hollandscottthomas]

@History Eraser Button A knife's a projectile anytime you throw it.

[@godconvoy]

That's only with lasguns, but a regular non energy weapon wouldn't have that effect, but would not pass through the shield because of how they work. Slow moving matter can pass through the shields.

[@TheEnecca]

@@godconvoy in the scene where oscar isaac gets captured he was hit by a fast moving projectile right? but the shild slowed it down. is that how it works for every non-laser weapon?

[@RogueBoyScout]

Oh yeah, they need to bring back Sting in those undies he wore in the 84 film.

[@SacredDaturaa]

I liked the Dune movie a lot, but I'd also been reading the book in the week beforehand. It feels like it might be pretty incomprehensible to someone who didn't have fresh/intimate knowledge of the book. Also, the audiobook is great. They go for a mixed approach where most of the book is read by a narrator but some dialogue in key scenes is done by actors, and there is some ambient sounds and music.

[@MasterDoctorBenji]

Haven't read it, stayed away from the story and details. I am the opposite of what people suggest. I prefer watching the movie first. I prefer the visual medium, find the emotional moments and epic spectacles hit better. After, I go back to really fill in the details. I followed things fairly well it seems. Afterwards my Girlfriend and I spent a long time talking about it. That helps. Most people make up their minds in the theatre then don't forget about, just remembering the impression of being confused. It's kinda like the Holdo/Poe storyline in episode 8. It makes perfect sense, when you get down to brass tax but everyone, even myself, left the theatre with the impression of. That was annoying bollocks.

[@THEAdmiralXizor]

Instead of calling it a "poop suit", they should just change the spelling of "stillsuit": Change the "i" to "oo" and everything is fine! 🤣👍🏽

Guardians of the Galaxy was not made by the studio that made Avengers. They were both published by Square Enix but Avengers was developed by Crystal Dynamics (Tomb Raider reboot) and Guardians of the Galaxy was developed by Eidos Montreal (Deus Ex reboot).

[@rjdruhan]

For Hulk, it's Universal, and greatly simplified: what they basically have is right of first refusal on the distribution rights for any standalone Hulk films. So, Disney could make a Hulk movie with no problem, but they would have to offer to let Universal distribute it. If Universal refused, Disney could still distribute it themselves. But there's no way Universal would refuse that, because it's *free money* And Disney is never gonna just let Universal distribute one of their films.

[@Brazdon83]

This episode was dense, and I couldn't leave the center of this unrelated black hole because of its infinity density, is that how this works? Cause its dense!

[@PittsburghSonido]

Every shot is just so dense.

[@ComicsFromScratch]

I hate to be an old man yelling at a cloud, but in my day, post-Annihilation Conquest, the Guardians grew from their beginnings. Yes, they had 50 years of obscure cosmic history, but within those stories, they learned and grew as people and as a team. There was as big a gap between GOTG2 and Infinity War as there was in the Endgame timeskip. But they didn't change. In the game, they seem to be the same. Flanderization really killed that fresh and interesting team.

[@jmace2424]

Dune Stans: “Dune is like Game of Thrones in space with all the noble houses at war!” Me: It’s not, though, because they never show up. It would be like if Game of Thrones consisted entirely of Jon at the Wall and Ned by himself in a King’s Landing populated only by a handful of Lannisters.

The best comparison to Dune is the Warhammer 40k universe, it was heavily inspired by Dune as well as many other sci-fi stories.

[@godconvoy]

They ripped off like a good 70% or so of it..... Dune did from Warhammers Games40K.

Bruce Campbell as Sully was the clear choice. Ya blew it, Sony.

[@niyaking-khari3515]

I enjoyed Dune but while I get that there's a lot of depth to this universe the first half was painfully slow. I think this would work much better as a big budget GoT styles series where you could dedicate entire episodes to some of the more complex world building

[@marikikyo5652]

That’s what dune fans say, but for what it’s worth, I loved the movie. Edit: I do agree with those fans too tho. Definitely better as a GoT style
