I don't like m'lord it makes it sound too sudden and retarded. Milord is better
>words words words
Dune is surreal levels of retarded. I love it.
>>218608120Classic book
>>218608145Which is why the new movies are terrible. They treat the silly material way too seriously.
>>218608338No, Dune has to be played completely straight. Big Denis could have a more exciting colour palette, but fundamentally he's doing it right with the serious tone.
>>218608002theres literally no way to tell a story without exposition dump
>>218608002It’s so over the top it becomes fucking goofy.
post the "teach your grandma to suck eggs" quote.
>>218608422Dune is a bunch of silly shite
>>218608002How do you sterilize a planet
>>218608942yeah it's great
>>218608657They should have made the film like a multi part Ken Burns style documentary
>>218609007porn and microplastics
>>218609039You mean like the SciFi series, or it's sequel series Children of Dune? Also fuck off, I'm not calling it SyFy
>>218609007Start by poisoning the wells
>>218609102I mean make it look like an actual documentary about "real" events.
>>218609177The novels are written as if it were history, particularly after the first novel. Dunc Part 2 has some of that vibe with Irulan.
>>218609007
>>218608002They will probably say Paul's feemen army was at war with a bunch of planets but not just mention how many people he killed.Chani will be there to say how evil his behavior is
>Paul "cares" about humanity>brags about getting a better high score than Hitler and Genghis Khan
Dune Messiah is 4chan coded.
>>218609288Atomics are outlawed!!!! if anything I bet its was a biological weapon
>>218609321If you truly cared about humanity you would understand
>>218609412>outlawedwho gives a shit when you are the emperor that killed billions?
>>218609321Trees need pruning from time to time
>>218608002Holy kek that's a real line in the book? Fuckie 20,000+ years have passed between Genghis/Hitler and Paul Atreides. That's approximately four times the amount of time between present day and the earliest piece of writing we have ever found on the planet. Hitler and Genghis not only would have been completely forgotten to the deepest bowels of obscure history, they would have been surpassed multiple times over by whatever conquerer could arise over the next 20 millennia across the entire galaxy.Get the fuck outta here Herbert. Sci-fi authors always do this stupid move where they try to ground their far-future setting by referencing something in present-day but it never works, ever. 100% of the time it comes across as kitsch and sometimes ridiculous. Fuckin Hitler, man. Do people even know Earth is a planet at that point in time?
>>218610032>Hitler not only would have been completely forgotten to the deepest bowels of obscure historyYou don't think 4chan still exists in Dune's time? Don't forget, forever means forever anon.
>People like and identify with my charismatic main character that wins battles, gets the girl, and conquers the universe?>I'm going insaannneeeeee Brian save me Bruce go die of AIDS
>>218609007Cut off the food supply. People in developed countries often eat 3 times a day. Imagine if it suddenly became no times a day. Imagine if you had to fight and kill your fellows just to eat once a day. You get them to kill each other by fighting just to last one more day
>>218610293I got this daddy
>>218609007Liberal white women and feminism
>>218608002I'm quietly waiting for God Emperor and the scene where the chick creams herself watching DI climb a cliff.
>>218610476Why did he uses thinking machines instead of face dancers as the big bad in the final DUNC book???
>>218610587With a sprinkle of homosexual acceptance propaganda.
>>218608002Surely in the 20,000 years in the future there have been more impressive leaders than Ghengis Khan and Hitler.
>>218610032You must not know about the Dune Jews. 5000 years after the events of Dune, across the interminable gulf of 25000 years from our present day, in spite of the deliberate eradication of all other existing organised religions, in spite of all the various jihads that scoured all of space and killed countless billions, there are still jews, they are basically the same as 21st century jews, and they still think about the holocaust.https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Judaism
>>218610202>mfw mentally shitposting from my aquarium
>>218608002What about this?
>>218610849OF chicks got some homework
skip this dogshit ass book and do children and then god emperorGEOD > Children > Dune > Messiahshrimple as
>>218610293>Bruce go die of AIDS
>>218609007Atheism
>>218609499That's messiah complex (pun intended). It's ultimately selfishness at its core.>>218609703That's just to make it safe and aesthetically pleasing for people. It does nothing for trees.
>>218608002You know they won't. And Bad Orangeman will probably somehow be inserted in to this conversation.
>>218610032they effectively have been completely forgotten. Paul has access to exclusive knowledge because he's Paul. No one else even knows humans came from a planet called Earth.
>>218610755This seems completely plausible to me
>>218611746that actually is real, but books 5 and 6 are weird, and people don't really focus on them. I think Frank had gone a bit peculiar by that point.
>>218608002I'm pretty sure Dennis never actually read the books.
>>218608056You will never be a milady
>>218609007Give the men video games and the women cats. Then simply wait for the inexorable end.
>>218608002He's just this openly evil at this point lol?
it wasn't six million
>>218608002>kills 20 million russians(confirmed, and doable, you are free to say otherwise)>muh 6 million jews(confirmed?. logistically impossible, illegal to say he didn't)
What about this?
>>218610032Gain the power to see all of the the past and future>sees the past and future Wha did you expect Anon?
>>218614486Why doesn’t anyone carry you think it was logistically impossible. That’s loads of proof and very doable
>>218615968That's definitely in the movie. It's in every movie
>>218608120american spotted
>>218608422Agreed, what makes Dune great is that it is played straight and it is silly.The new movies are trying to make it seem edgy and it ruins everything.
>>218616115I'd expect him to see significantly more effective and brutal leaders in the 20,000+ years since those men were alive. Those dudes' numbers would be absolute child's play compared to a dictator with a stellar empire. It would have made way more sense if Paul studied men well after Earth was forgotten, but Herbert decided on those two because as above, he tried to ground Paul in our universe and it doesn't work because it's stupid. It's like how in Star Trek they'll do that one particular trick where someone says>Yes, he is one of the great scientists of our time. On par with Gorklock, Phazon, Einstein.
>>218612062>I think Frank had gone a bit peculiar by that point.Yeah books 5 and 6 were written 20 years after Dune, he was at a very different time in his life and people can change a lot over a period like that.
>>218617353He became a boomer coomer by then
>>218617198You'd think the AI wars that made them give up technology would have killed far more than that
The Eternal Champion novel has a similar plot where the "hero" kills all humans.
>>218608002Half of Messiah is Paul just crying about the genocide he willingly committed.
