>almost dies to a mega jobber who only fought slaves why did denis make paul such a bitch? feyd doesn't even cheat here unlike in the book
Because he hates Paul and loves Chani
>>219237006And who has Paul fought with before?
>>219237056jamis and tons of harkonnen. both the movie and book explicitly states that absolutely no fremen can take him in a duel, stilgar even accepts that he's dead despite getting ready for a duel
>>219237006we only like Lynch's Dune
>>219237086Maybe Feyd-Rautha had fought against soldiers too in some battles. Or that isn't mentioned in the books either.
>>219237162maybe, but i don't think the movie gave a good impression of his actual skills while paul is continually shown as unstoppable. i don't get why they cut the poison cheating part, it's what makes feyd cunning and unique
>>219237199Nolan decided to change that part I guess to make it more epic having two great warriors fighting and not just one cheating because he knows he can't win otherwise.
>>219237006Feyd is an even bigger bitch in the book.
>>219237321yeah which is why he cheats
Feyd was supposed to be goated in the film compared to the book
When will we get a good Dune adaptation with Weirding Way anime tier "teleports behind you" fights?
Austin Butler kilt this shit i wish we had feyd in movie 3
>>219237419How do people react to the fights with the shields and stuff in the movies do they make sense with how it is in the book?
Feyd is a genetic freak like Paul. The Bene Gesserit breeding plan was for Jessica to have a daughter who would then have the Kwisatz Haderach with Feyd. Since he was on the same genetic rung as Paul in the race to breed a space jesus, it's not surprising that he made it competitive.
>>219237413Also in the book Paul only ever "feels" that moment of time as being a whirling nexus of unknown futures and the fight is very much one-sided in Paul's favor, but right after the fight it's implied that what he actually was unable to see was Fenring who was standing right there and could have easily killed him but chose not to. The movie cut Fenring out completely despite casting Tim Blake Nelson, so originally the movie probably had a different fight scene.
>>219237446Why don't you watch the movies, bitch boy
>>219237447This but Paul should have still mogged him harder
>>219237465I was just being nice but ok
>>219237413>>219237447i know what denis went for, but i think he should've doubled down and shown in actually being extremely skilled. the only other fight we see aside from paul is him fighting an exhausted slave. the slave isn't even someone special, just an artreides goon yet feyd still almost dies despite the distractors stepping in
>>219237162In the book, they make a point of Feyd usually fighting drugged-up slaves in heavily controlled arena fights. He's primarily a showman more than anything else. A wrestler, essentially. In the book, this comes through more in their duel, as Feyd continually tries to talk shit and work the crowd and Paul just staying completely silent and unfazed which annoys the fuck out of him
>a guy who has been slaughtering drugged up tomato cans between BDSM orgiesvs>a veteran and commander of a planet wide year long guerrilla, taught by the best swordsmen in the galaxy and that has every fucking Chosen One ability.
Do we have a leaked script for dunc 3 yet
>>219237532In the book basically the same thing happens as in the movie with one of the slaves being undrugged, the difference is that in the book it's Feyd-Rautha and Thufir's plan for him to fight the undrugged slave, not the Baron's plan as in the movie
>>219237636No but it's clear Denny Boy is completely shitting on the storyIt was obvious since Part 2 came out and Chani was turned into a girlboss rebel
>>219237469Feyd and Paul were both from great houses and had received the same level of training. Paul beat Jamis in his first fight because of this training. It's not that unbelievable that Feyd would almost beat him especially when you consider that Feyd is bigger and stronger than Paul.
>>219237006Why are you even watching that slop is a better question. Villeneuve's completely lost it.
>>219237728But Paul is gigaOP by the time they fight
>>219237728>had received the same level of trainingabsolutely not, it's explicitly stated that the artiredes were way beyond the harkonnens in terms of swordfighting, and paul was the best of the fremen (which were even better than saurdaukars and artreides)paul also has a ton of bullshit psychic powers
>>219237006Film/show-only fans are cancer.
>>219237728True. Feyd-Rautha fought a gladiator and a former Atreides soldier, who wasn't drugged and it was another Harkonnen intrigue that could've ended with his death. It was an equal fight and Bene Gesserit witches were apoplectic that their thousand year genetic program could've ended with the deaths of both Paul and Feyd-Rautha.
>>219237928Book fans who complain about movies are also cancer
>>219237993Feyd-Rautha also had psychic powers?
