Leave dune to me

I just hope the Taurans don't look too fake.

>more muslim propaganda

No thanks.

The spice is worm poop.

Shittiest book I've ever read. So much euphoria.

Can we have a version that doesn't suck the Fremen dick so much?

No because that's how it is in the original. Le noble brown savage beat da evil advanced white man.

Herbert's kids serving as executive producers

I bet you like Hyperion, I bet you do.

>Le noble brown savage beat da evil advanced white man.

>savages
>created the best stillsuits

Nigga...

God Emperor of Dune.

Worse than Tolkien's brat.

Dune can't be properly adapted unless you want to do a multi season show.

But then they go on to fuck the entire galaxy because they are backward religious shitheads. Then 1000 years of based Leto II.

I don't like SciFi at all.

>>created the best stillsuits

Just more dick sucking. There's nothing about their culture that suggests any kind of high technology.

Yeah, what the fuck is up with that? was I supposed to root for Paul and his army of Sandnigs just because his father was killed? fucking autistic selfish cunt.

The beauty was in the simplicity. I think they also invented dew collectors, but I'm not sure about that.

>Then 1000 years of based Leto II.

Um...

Friendly Reminder. Brian Herbert teamed up with shit tier Star Wars EU writer Kevin j Anderson (Darksaber) to leach off brand recognition. I see those books at my grocery store.

>stillsuits

Meanwhile the rest of the Universe was busy inventing lasers, shields, thopters and fucking spaceships ships. While fremen invented a knife made from sandworm and clothes. Fremen are savages.

none of these movies go so far as to describe the sand people as having worn out uniforms and looking dirty as fug because they never bathe.

They always have a rather well kept look that defeats the image of being desert guerilla fighters.

...

i've read them

They weren't terrible unless you copmare them to daddy's work.

I mean, he makes the choice, and it's up to the reader to decide if it's the right or wrong one (in killing the makers and changing the planet's ecology). I think they are anything but sympathetic by the second book, if not outright villains.

>The beauty was in the simplicity

They literally never explain how this shit works. And you know it's not scientifically possible. They're like a race of Mary-Sues.

Also, why do the characters never acknowledge how fucking terrible they are smelling? amazing urine drinking suits, with no downsides!

>He doesn't like Hyperion

>maybe I should root for the Harkonnen-
>just a bit of spittle
>Baron Harkonnen's ghost sharing the body of a woman and enjoying getting railed by Duncan

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

No matter how the author tried to shit on the Baron, he was still the best character.

Is there any way to film the first book of Dune? There's so much dialogue where characters say one thing and mean another, and some of the innuendo you could you only understand through the help of a narrator or, god forbid you actually include this in your movie, internal dialogue.

I'd skim over the events of the first book and start the movie around the second book where Paul Atriedes is a fugitive and joins the Fremen.

>Baron Harkonnen's ghost sharing the body of a woman and enjoying getting railed by Duncan
>getting railed by Duncan

Baron actually cucks Duncan. He has her bang some official on the up and up.
He cucks Duncan so hard he has Stilgar essentially help him commit suicide.

Yeah half the book is characters thinking about how smart they are. And the dialogue is nothing but dry exposition. No way.

Sweat is collected in catch pockets which are all connected via tube, so you can drink it. Salt is filtered out and water is allowed to pass, presumably by osmosis.

did you even read the boooks?

>fremen scrub them selves down in sand when they get into their sealed cavern cities and take off their suits.
>their dew collectors work on based on simple science. they carved funnels and caves into desert mountains. which face into prevailing winds. wind blows into the cave and the air of the wind touches cold rock. the little bit of water in the air condenses on the rock and then drips into the cistern below.
>stillsuits would work, until the layers and water of the suit causes you to overheat and pass out.

They explain the stillsuits in... I think its Children the first time. It uses pumps in the feet to recirculate water. It's made of a non absorbant fabric so sweat accumulates and is filtered via a system powered by the foot pumps.

first book is a lot of exposition on religion, commerce, and feudal politics.

Yeah that really explains the technology, fucktards. This would never work irl.

moisture wicking base layer

sweat, urine, and feces are dried out against your body.

>Yeah that really explains the technology, fucktards. This would never work irl.


Yeah I forgot that the exosuits in Forever War have been in use in actual combat for the last couple decades, ya fucking idiot.

>Kevin J. Anderson
>weren't terrible

Hope they cast right this time. Paul is small for his age int he first book, and the twins are only nine in Children.
>My face when it mentions that even before the start of Children, the twins had been participating in the spice induced orgies
Frank really got dirtier as he grew older. Heretics was like half porn.

read some 40k books, if you want to see what terrible really is.

Honored Matres and Duncan clone #2340135190 engage in sex combat. First one of cum loses.

>Also, why do the characters never acknowledge how fucking terrible they are smelling?

They do. Frequently in the first book.
And I don't know how they are Mary Sues. They're a group of religious nut jobs that have been chased off planet after planet until they end up on the worst fucking planet to live on in the universe, where they sac up and become that hardest niggers to ever live.

Not that guy but I also love Hyperion. I can understand why others look down upon it, cause it turns rather crazy and fantasy-tier at the end of the series. Dune is still the best though it also goes rather crazy near the end.

This is a blue board user, take off that monster dick pic.

>They do. Frequently in the first book.

They do like once, as exposition, then it never gets acknowledged or comes into play again. You never get Paul saying "Damn Chani, you smell like a rotten camel's corpse, I can't fuck you like that" or something.

This. Leto II repressed and instilled hate and pent-up frustration so that his Golden Path would become real. He's my favorite character but goddam, he makes Hitler look like a bitch.

Spoiler that shit!!!

They weren't that bad. I consider them a parallel series to Dune, not something to hate shit on cause it's not the main series. The prequel Star Wars trilogy is worse cause it's considered canon.

That makes sense since he already fucked up the books.

They were generic as fuck brah. No depth whatsoever

Pretty much every character who is not a Fremen comment on how filthy they are. Paul never says that to Chani because he becomes a Fremen himself before he starts banging her.

Next you're going to tell me that warping isn't possible even with a magic inbred crackbaby leading the way. And I suppose a giant talking worm is out of the question? Get the fuck out of my face.

>babby reads his first sci fi book

they don't need the crackbabies to warp. they are just a safety precaution. Necessary because of the prohibition on computers.

Virgin talk, women are always bit dirty and it can be arousing also.

Thanks for completely missing the point.

Frank Herbert tells, and doesn't show. He tells you how bad the suits smell, but never have it affect the plot. He tells you that the Fremen are technological geniuses, yet aside from having high technology nothing in their culture suggests it.

This is seriously bad writing and if this book is regarded as the pinnacle of SciFi, then the entire genre must suck.

>on behalf of the Herbert family.

It's going to be shit.

I can't believe he fucked up the Bulerian Jihad so bad. He turned it into The Matrix basically. Frank's idea for it was that people were so subservient on automation that they were easily enslaved by those with the drive to do so.
Like imagine someone came along and took everyone everyone's smart phones and would only give it back if you murdered your neighbor. That's what was going on in the universe before people got their shit together.

>I don't know Baron Harkonnen
>I never met Baron Harkonnen
Reminds me of someone.

>they don't need the crackbabies to warp

You also don't need to be able to see to drive a car.

Are you dumb? Fremen are more pre-Islamic Arabs than anything else. Even then they have Sayyadinas as women in religious positions. You are dumb

...

>They weren't terrible

Remove yourself.

>He tells you that the Fremen are technological geniuses, yet aside from having high technology nothing in their culture suggests it.

What? He never says that. It's the opposite, which is why they are able to school the Emperor's own army.

>villain is an obese homesexual pedo

What did Herbert mean by that?

>Then 1000 years of based Leto II.

3500 years.

Read Clarke. Herbert didn't care for the technology, he was just "muh concepts, muh societies".

Fucking contrarians. I bet you've never paid taxes either. Anyways, Leto II is the best, followed by Duncan Idaho. If you're into the prequels, Erasmus is third (cause of actual character development).

"The Hacks of Dune"
>John C. Reilly as Brian Herbert
>Joss Whedon as Kevin J. Anderson
>Sio Bibble as Frank Herbert's Ghost

Fund it!

why does max look so different all the time?

>Legendary Entertainment
>owned by the Chinese
So, what role is Fan Bingbing going to have in this version of Dune?

unless Grimes is directing and starring in it i'm not interested

>What? He never says that

Yes he does. Frequently, through Paul. I see no reason why a bunch of cave-dwelling starving bedouins would be able to take over the Emperor's men. It's pathetic.

Navigators keep them from accidentally traveling into a star or planet.

a normal human could operate the controls. just with a significant risk of crashing the Guild Heighliner.

Because he is cast in one of the dullest franchises that ever were.

dune or game of thrones?

My bet is that Princess Irulan and Emperor Shaddam get RICED in the name of diversity.

Dune. Game of Thrones is just a bad copycat, though considering how bad Dune is, it's actually a good thing. I'm glad GRRM, for all his autism, didn't go full Herbert.

Because they've been persecuted their entire lives and live in the harshest environment? You go hard or you die. No safe spaces on Arrakis.

>It's the opposite, which is why they are able to school the Emperor's own army.

But that's retarded. By all accounts, Fremen should be malnourished and have a very small population because there is just not enough food and everything to go around.

Herbert of course handwaves this by IT'S DA SPICE.

>I unironically enjoy Lynch's films

>Fan Bingbing
i still cant get over the fact that fan bingbing is a name

pretty qt though

>global

Topkekers

something where she won't have to speak much.

Living in a harsh enviorment doesn't make you a supreme warrior. Critters survived when the dinosaurs didn't, doesn't mean that a mouse can take on a dinosaur. The Fremen's bodies must be weak from having so little nutrition and fluids.

This it should be done by HBO properly with no restrictions

Lynch Dune is pretty enjoyable.

Pro tip: sci if books are not all about technology

No, they have underground secret gardens, they do just fine. They just want to be under radar, maybe for spice maybe for prophecy.

THIS, I think it can work, Game of Thrones is chockful of politics and characters and still enjoys a great deal of success.

I really like it and think that it does not deserve the hate it gets, although I would like to understand what was the studio meddling that made Lynch hate the movie.

Well, I went from excited to infuriated in the span of several seconds.

>is pretty enjoyable.
>posts a picture of a semi-naked man
Are you an homo?

The Baron was a bitch compared to Leto II. And he did it for fun, not a higher purpose. That's what I call an asshole, so Trump applies to him. Leto II willingly let himself be a pariah to future people so that they may spread and may not descend into decadence. Trump is literally decadent and does shit only for himself, fucking people over for profit. Anyone who sees him as legitimately trying to better the US is delusional and/or a contrarian cause a businessman is always a businessman: willing to fuck over anyone for money.

I'd suggest those interested in the Dune novels, also pick up The Dune Encyclopedia but don't bother with any of the prequels/sequels by Herbert's shitbag son mooching off his dad's talent, they're complete and utter trash.

I wish GoT would end so we can finally have HBO's Dune. The GoT audience should be able to transition into Dune pretty smoothly

Lady Jessica, Paul will be half Chinese but played by a white kid.

The desert is teeming with life. Vultures, rats, other birds, etc. They eat well. And they don't ingest enough spice to have much effect on their bodies. Not even enough to benefit from living longer (~300 years old).
They're also the ultimate guerilla fighters.

>John C. Reilly as Brian Herbert

lel

>unless you copmare them to daddy's work.

Yeah god forbid books that say DUNE on them are compared to the original DUNE novels
