ABSOUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! Dune Part Two REACTION 

I’m so sorry we had to cut the arena scene! It got flagged for copyright and blocked, so I had to cut it😫

"We, Chani, we who carry the name of concubine-history will call us wives" is the last line in the book

Really wish I saw this in Imax at the time. I went from not knowing anything to getting the audiobook the same day. Also really recommend lord of the rings if you've never seen it !

Can't imagine the pressure now on Denis' shoulders to kill it with Part III.

love your channel. i found you two while watching interview with the vampire season 1 - i'm holding off on season two until i can binge it!! but regarding today's video - it was precisely what i needed to lift me out of my funky mood this morning! thank you both for being a source of happiness and laughter when things get a little low over on my end. and wasn't dune part two wonderful? i saw it in iMax here in nyc when it came out - i went five times - i just thought it was mesmerizing - the visuals, the sound... everything. part one and part two is such a renaissance of exquieste film making - i hope hollywood can find its way back to this sorta formula when making films! anyway, again, thank you both for such a great reaction video!!

Dont tell me when to sleep! 🤣Thanks for laughs ladies - great reaction 😀

They cut the ENTIRE arena scene?? I’m speechless

"The last time the worm looked at them, it didn't try to...." They had made it to rocks. Worms can't move on rock, so avoid it.

Rebecca Ferguson is so dam fine

wasn’t the movie amazing? but at 49:21 lmfaooooooooooo ❤

to quote frank herbert the author of dune “I wrote the Dune series because I had this idea that charismatic leaders ought to come with a warning label on their forehead: 'May be dangerous to your health."

By giving Jessica the Water of Life when she was pregnant, they inadvertently created a fully-aware Reverend Mother with all the powers of the Bene Gesserit inside the womb.

1:02:08 "she's wife in name only" - that's an important line in the book and left out in the movie. Glad, you said it here for us.

This is the best commentary I've ever seen on one of these! You guys are great!

The women of the Bene Gesserit order have as close to total control of their body as it is possible to get. They can move each muscle individually as well as regulate each gland and even store infections and other pathogens safely and use them as weapons on command. Releasing an egg when needed and not haveing a menstral cycle are probably novice teachings.

Great reaction video ladies. Although Paul’s journey was interesting to watch, keep in mind Paul and his family are members of Royalty. That’s why he married. The emperor’s daughter. It was a political move. Also, the Author wrote Dune as a warning against charismatic leaders. Which is Paul. Even though we are warn because of Paul’s actions billions of people will die. Chani was really the moral compass of this movie. She believed one of her own people should liberate her people, not an outsider.

"He's gonna resurrect like Jesus" got me howling!!! 😂😂

'Paco Rabbane' omg y'all had so many hilarious comments! What an awesome film!

All I know is, never get in a duel to the death with someone who can see the future and doesn't seem concerned.

"All the bad Guys are gone" you said. :) That's not the case. Paul has become the bad guy. Billions on innocents will die in his holy war. The Fremen have become the Universes Taliban. That's what he saw. That's why he was so reluctant to go south and claim the title of Messiah. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. He knew. ;) He will try to curb the atrocities, but to almost no effect. The Fremen are religious fanatics now. There are no happy endings.

Damn, didnt expect you to pay so much attention to the finer details, big ups

His marriage to the emperors daughter was only for the throne. His father who in the books was married to another as well, and mother were leader and concubine. Chani would become his concubine.

Herbert said he wrote Dune to challenge the idea of the destined hero of prophecy that appears in so many other tales. Even a benevolent colonizer is still a colonizer. Paul is not the hero, he is a cautionary tale.

Y'all's reaction was amazing, glad I found your guys' channel! Earned a sub

In the book, Chani was well aware of the arrangement to marry the Emperor's daughter, and knew it was political. She stayed with him and basically ruled the Empire. And the "wife" got moved to secretary, and historian writing his books. Princess Irulan got absolutely no love, or affection, or shared a bed with Paul Atreides. The director choose in the movie to make Chani not accept this, so that it makes it easier to transition into Dune- Messiah. Which builds out more characters, and MORE intrigue. There is a big time jump, about 12 years I believe in the book. But Alia Atreides, his sister, will be running the day to day things of the Empire.

Again, you two make the great even greater. It was a privilege to return to Dune with you two. Intelligent and emotional too. It was like watching the movie for the 1st time. Thanks again for your time and effort. You two have a gift. I am watching Interview with a Vampire with you. Will see you there.

So far, Denis Villeneuve is advancing what is possible within science fiction cinema. Because of the Butlerian Jihad, the Dune universe does not have computers or thinking machines, so there's an analog sensibility to all of their technology. Space travel only occurs because navigators use spice like a drug to foresee successful routes when travelling through folded space. Body shielding tech renders firearms mostly useless so everyone trains with blades for their combat. But those shields cannot be used in the deserts of Arrakis because it causes the giant worms to go into a frenzy. It's a very lush, detailed universe that truly goes off the rails by the time you reach the reign of Paul's son. This is science fiction for grownups, and I can't wait to see how far they take it. Great reaction!

51:44 "Oh this is going to be a nice war" 😂 I am screaming

The resistance against the Lisan al Ghaib mythology among Chani and her friends mirrors the message Frank Herbert meant to convey with the book, which was essentially that people should be very careful with messianic leaders. "You tell them a Messiah is coming, then they wait", says Chani. As opposed to fighting the oppressor themselves now, is the implication. So her fear is that the pious waiting is holding the Fremen back from winning back their freedom. (Though I guess there's some anti-colonial sentiment as well, what with the myth coming from off world). Denis Villeneuve changed Chani's arc a bit from the book, supposedly to have her carry Herbert's message. But for me it all gets a bit muddled at the end of the movie. I mean, what do you call a man-made myth that comes true? And does it make any difference any more?

Jessica was Leto's concubine. she had leto's heart and children, advised him, etc. his actual wife was a marriage of political nature. this is why paul needs to marry princess irulian. for the political impact of the union. These sort of political unions have occurred here on earth for thousands of years in numerous cultures. Up until recently, this was a very common practice.

one old criticism about Dune is the notion that it is a white savior narrative, when in fact, its a critique on the idea of saviors as a whole. the books as a whole are a critique on the idea of putting all your stock on political/religious/influential figures. they are all flawed or straight up corrupt. even Duke Leto in the books wasnt 100% perfect because at the end of the day, he wanted to use the Fremen for the sake of "desert power," to have an edge against his enemies. Paul Atreides (and his future son) is the culmination of that corruption. he is the product of eugenics and he has Harkonnen in his heritage. the movie doesnt really cover this detail, but the Bene Gesserit dont necessarily want to use Paul to save humanity. they primarily want to use him as a tool to control the course of humanity, to lead it into a direction of their choosing for the sake of control and planning. as for Paul himself, when he sees visions of the future, he sees how destructive his existence is to the Imperium as a whole. he sees that if he rises to power via Fremen faith, he will be responsible for terrible things, a holy war in his name that will snuff out billions of innocent lives. he knows this, and he's terrified of it. that's why he's so hesitant to become That Guy to the Fremen, especially considering that the myth of That Guy was manufactured by the Bene Gesserit. but when push comes to shove, he cant protect those he cares about without becoming That Guy. that's why he chooses to become That Guy. and because Paul has embraced his role, he essentially converted an entire race of people into religious zealots. this is what Chani feared. because the Fremen now blindly follow Paul because of his (albeit true) promises of a better life for Arrakis as a whole, theyve effectively lost their ability to self-determine. they arent their own people anymore. if Denis adapts Dune Messiah, the second book in the series, you'll definitely see how devastating the aftermath is...

I almost spit out my water when you ladies said 'The Mucinex monster" Hahahaha! My first time watching you ladies. Great reaction!

In a few years, when the 3rd part arrives, we will have a 12 years time skip, with 65 billion deaths and Paul as revenging emperor.

Walking is so tiring. Walking in the desert would be so annoying. Now you have to do this little dancer cmon man, i would only make it 20 feet a day i know it. The fremen are built different.

Please watch Zendaya in The Challenges. Timothee Chalamet' in the King (Netflix), Wonka (Max) for his range. Any movie Javier Bardem was in. I would recommend Rebecca Ferguson in Silo (Apple). But it was only for 1 season. You seemed to alreadt seen Austin Butler in Elvis. But Wonka 1st. Its the complete opposite for Timothee. And he has an adorable sidekick.

The Boys. You won't regret it

I wish they hadn’t cut out that, in the book, Chani and Paul had a son (Leto I) who was killed in the attack on Sietch Tabr.

The storyline involving Paul’s sister, Alia, isn’t really touched on in the film. Spoiler alert: In the books, Alia actually kills Baron Harkonnen, not Paul. Probably for the best, though. Would’ve confused a lot of people.

3:50 when bodies are falling out of the sky.. Even though it never rains on Arrakis, It's raining Men hallelujah😅

Okay setup! 👏🏽 Glad to see you two back in the reacting space!

Joined, what a refreshing take, yall are great!

I wish in the end they included a bit from the books where Chani and Lady Jessica actually talk and she explains her own life as a royal concubine and explains to her that the Queen would be a political prisoner for the rest of her life and would never know love or touch and it would be Chanis children who would be the heirs

The moment they drinked the water of life it’s a lot similar to how bran should’ve been once the three eyed raven took over his body he would not be like a robot but he’d be rather wise yet have a lot of personality not like how they did it in game of thrones

I love this movie; saw it 3 x's in theater. There were only two pieces I didn't like: Irulan's narrations and Alia as an adult.

If you enjoyed this director's work, you may want to give Arrival a watch.

Paul is not fearful except for possible loss of Chani, because she does not believe in the prophesy, because is not religious. She believes Freyman must rule its own people. Paul knows if he doesn’t rule the Emperor, then he cannot save. … interesting how you two hosts are so supportive of Paul and not Chani… interesting ladies… you drank the KoolAid!

The reason women were the only one's who could become reverand mothers is actually really interesting in the lore. It's not about the pain (not entirely) but whose memories you're getting. Reverand Mothers gain access to their entire female line of memories. As opposed to Paul who could take the whole package. To be clear, they CAN access the memories, but the experience would kill them. I may be miss remembering here, but I've heard difference described as fighting against a raging river (the female half) vs being eating by a thousand hungry wolves (the male half). Though that might have been Wheel of Time...

Yes ! Princess Irulan is just wife in name, IN THE BOOK AT THE END ! Story for the next movies....much later (Books 2 and 3 : Messiah of Dune and Children of Dune)

23:57 Despite what the subtitles may say don’t be so sure those are women. From the books the Baron prefers his scantily clad personal assistants to be young and masculine. The director has tried to soften how big of a freak the Baron is from a sexual standpoint. He enjoys abusing the people around him including family members. Its heavily implied that he abused Feyd. He also has fantasies about doing vile things to Paul.

it was perfectly cast... except for the emperor... in the books he was described as a 70ish year old man in the body of a 30 year old man, due to his excessive spice consumption.

Interesting reaction. The author wrote Dune to warn us about following charismatic leaders and the dangers of organizied religions. Both were made clear in the book and the movie but some people still rooted for Paul. Paul is from royalty. Trained by his father to rule over people and his mother to understand different cultures and their beliefs so they can better control them.. So it's not a coincidence he understood Freman language and customs. The moral compass in this movie was Chani. She fought for her people not for Paul. She believed if there was a Messiah it should come from her people not a white savior. But the movie does show that even today people will still cheer and follow leaders who tell them what they want to hear. Paul is not a hero and because of his actions billions of people will die from war and famine because Paul cut of spice to the other planets that don't bow to him.

14:16 Yeah, the 'little' ones… which are about 2-3 feet long(!)

wait lol fun fact Paco Rabanne is the designer who made florence pugh's chainmail headdress for the end scene lolol wasn't sure if u knew :)

He saw the only path to protect Chani. Remember he had a vision of her death. Like most rulers of men they can't marry for love but to strengthen their position.

I never read the books, but the harkonnen feel like they don’t have the ability to feel sadness/fear, only anger/arousal in place of it.

Jesus, you two watch masterpieces in the best conditions possible. ^^;

29:55 if nobody mentioned the Baron is the inspiration for Jabba the Hut. Jabba also smokes a hookah

Paul a man that wanted revenge and in that end his name became a monster and billions died.

7:06 Rabban was drunk. If you look closely he has a wine goblet in his hand.

I just found this channel and I knew a minute in that I was going to subscribe! You guys are lovely, hilarious and have great energy and banter! I can't wait to binge-watch you all's videos! Keep up the great work, ladies!

24:30, the worm didn’t attack because Jamis set off a thumper

3:00 "run and float like in mario brothers" was a hilarious pull XD

Dammm did y'all react to Dune1 or ya watch on y'all personal time

Paul wasn't facing his fear, he was facing his horror.

I read these books (the first three of over twenty anyway) in the 1980s as a teenager. So epic. Great reaction ladies. You guys are charming.

Okay y'all are two of my favorite reviewers now - love this reaction video to Dune: Part 2! Wish you could have seen this in 70mm IMAX too!

Ok...well you ladies are an absolute BLAST to watch react. Gonna have to follow anf check out more of your videos 😂

I also haven’t finished it yet, but do they understand that Paul isn’t a good person just because he is the main character, right?

Paul was not asleep, he was dealing with visions

Great reaction, ye girls are hilarious, love it! Ye just got a new subscriber from Ireland 🇮🇪👋

I don't think I would enjoy sitting in the cinema next to you

you guys gotta do more film watches you are hilarious

I felt that punch too 😂. I said "damn Chani"

Omg the Muscinex monster, haha!

Chani wil be his concubines will have his children.

You ladies are hilarious. Love your reaction!!! 🎉😊

Not Fat Man Scoop.

Love your review, but I have to tell you, you two are so beautiful!!!

I hope you guys react to more movies. Love your reactions!

Really enjoyed your reaction. :-)

Y'all had me hollering omg

Damn, so you guys didn’t react to the arena scene???

Paul is the son of a Bene Gesserit, and trained in the body control techniques taught by his mother Jessica. He is also trained in mentat ways (all the human machine calculations that the mentats and navigators do). He has prescience and can instantly predict possible futures and change his attack and actions accordingly. I like that you both focused on Chani too. Thanks!

Y'all hilarious!

I love the vibe that you two brought to this reaction... I read the books many many moons ago and the only thing that isn't fully appreciated: is the montage of attacks with Paul and Chani spanned years instead of what felt like in one year. So the betrayal at the end is even more keenly felt with Paul's loveless marriage. OK, "Mucinex plug" ranks right up there with: "you Bean-bag of a man" and "... his Balsalmic butt". thanks for your reaction and all your effort. pj

Paul marries Irulan in order to keep the empire kind of together and lend himself legitimacy, Chani becomes his concubine and bears his children including The God Emperor Leto II

my first impression of you and your channel............. if the three actresses from the movie Hidden Figures had to played by you two. 😉

1:0029, he killed Elvis...

Good reaction but the final , we await your orders lisan al gaib , and" lead them to paradise" was missed out ;( best line in the film with the sadness in his voice

These girls are hilarious!

Y’all should do a Patreon

What application or streaming site do you use to record and watch your films?

can't wait for the season 2 house of the dragon reactions

Only a few minutes in but y’all are funny 😂

Great reaction, As Written.

I hope you ladies do more movie reactions. :)

I laughed hard with you girls, great react!

Awesome reaction continued success
