@@michaelwootan I was reading the death of the mother of the emperor god with a better music from Ergo proxy under molly 15y ago here in France. No cap...
The emotional departure of the home planet, anxious to be placed in such a dangerous politcal situation on Arrakis is unbelievably well written by Herbert and it truly amazes me that a mere film ( no offense intended there) has been able to translate that emotion to what is has become in the film is just so spot on...... i can't help getting teared up as i listen to this.
If you watched the very first dune, which that one is even more wild and is more like several entire books worth of movies all fit into one film is even more confusing. I didn't understand a bit of it at all, but this newer one really simplified it but also didn't at the same time, it made some things much more clear and got some unnecessary things out of the way
I saw a piece of Leaving Caladan at Hans Zimmer Live yesterday… it was such an experience! So overwhelming, so majestic! Truly a once in a lifetime experience! I really have no words how to express the way I felt! If you consider yourself a music lover and a cinema lover AND a Hans Zimmer fan you need to go to one of his shows… it was for me the best thing ever happened to me!
I listen to this and the hair on the back of my neck stands up. One knows they have found a special sound when it provokes physical reaction. No matter how many times already listened.
I've personally always preferred his earlier scores like The Rock, Gladiator, Crimson Tide and The Lion King, his modern stuff is less based around melodies and more on atmosphere/emotional intensity it seems, I've never hummed a theme from his recent movies in my head, PotC 2 and 3 are exceptions to this but his stuff has kind of lost the luster that made me fall in love with his work....not to say I don't like it, it just hits different
An event so significant there's no turning back from, no way to go back to what you've left behind and no knowing what you're walking into.. an entire path laid out for the Atreides by many that they follow into the unknown
Being one of my fav soundtracks, the original 1.30 mins was just not enough for me. Thank you for this clean edit, I at least have it now for 2.30 mins...
Soo much inspired by Sufi-mystic music ... The guitar work reminds of Junoon (music band from Pakistan) during the Sayoni-90s era... such unearthing epic feel... A larger game unfolds...
@@becausebuzzbomb6133 differences in Target audience doesn’t mean that they can’t be compared narratively, visually ect. Unforgiven and Avengers Endgame are very different but you can still compare the two.
@@moosejuice4231 You can compare them subjectively, you can try to compare them objectively, but in the end all that matters is that the film is (dis)liked. I definitely prefer Dune to Star Wars, but I wouldn't tell anyone that Dune is better if they told me that Star Wars is better. Most of these comparisons will be purely subjective and therefore valid by default.
For me both films, despite being very different, share stunning soundtracks. I have an interest in dragonflies and I love the soft rattling in the build-up like a dragonfly's wings, of course leading up to the incredible ornithopters...
It’s all about the drums ! Haha . Is that a south Asian sarangi ? I wonder … he always makes us fill the gaps with our own thoughts . That is why I find his work infinitesimally accessible. I don’t know him , but I think that’s what he wants to create … a space for us to fill alongside what he creates . Creative humility . Maybe .
The problem with being the best is the monumental task of equaling or exceeding your previous work; knowing that you’ve established high expectations from everyone else. Not a burden I’d want. But Zimmer does it… Somehow.
Actually quite reminds me of the dune 2 / dune 2000 ost.... That's a huge compliment by the way. Was there ever anything dune with a bad soundtrack? Children of Dune and the Lynch movie had amazing soundtracks as well!
when I listen to this, I just imagine Rimworld. My crewmates hurdling through the atmosphere away from a burning ship besieged by mechanoids. As we make landfall, be build a new empire, we spread like locusts over the rim, laying waste to those who dare oppose us and mercilessly ending the mechanoid menace.
It sounds like a grand future bringing itself into being, a grand plan simultaneously coming into fruition while also going not quite the way anyone expected
Juan, amazing, seamless edit. Thank you. I have to ask, because it still bothers me every time I hear it (maybe it’s just me?), but do you know “Pegasus” by Bear McCready from BSG? It’s another slow building, crescendoing masterpiece that has always begged for an extended edit. I think you’re just the magician for the job….
That’s the point. Dune was meant to be a very thinly veiled metaphor for colonial powers like France, Britain, and America coming and going taking as much oil oil as they wanted, regardless of whether the native Iraqis were OK with it or not.
@@robynsun_love believe me we would give it all to them if only they do real investment in us but they just want to destroy us so we never be able to fight ISreal ........ they choose this and we have Babylon essence of rage and anger
@@yohanalexander2850 Good point except Hussein’s didn’t come into power until 1979. Dune was written in 1965. Perhaps Frank Herbert was in fact The Kwizatz Haderach and foresaw the ascendance of Saddam Hussein
Now I hate to be a wet blanket, but, if The Duke knew that it was going to be dangerous on Arrakis, what with Harkonen booby-traps and sabotage lying around, wouldn't it have been logical to leave Jessica and Paul on Caladan for a while, until the place was made safe?
@@juanete06gamer51 Ah...I was wondering about whether they still had Caladan. However later when Stilgar et al 'rescues' Paul and Jessica she asks that they be allowed to flee to Caladan (in the movie at least), implying that it was still theirs.
