Honest Trailers | Dune (2021) 

You have won the internet! Good one !😂🤣😂

Would be better for Zendaya ngl

"Lawrence of Arakkis"

And Duncan Idaho should've been "Hannah Montana".

Maybe they felt like they couldn’t after using a spice girls joke on the Lynch one. But damn that’s a good one!

Does Paul's son just warg INTO a sand worm? Or does he physically mutate on the spot INTO one, his own body inexplicably putting on that much mass from nothing? Also: they can reanimate corpses in the Dune universe? (re: Duncan)

*chuckles in face dancer*

@@Kris_AB mutate. Slowly though. Duncan will be clone multiple times (clone = ghola).

I already read the books, but I wish they didn't invite spoilers in the comments like this

@@trkms 'multiple times' being another ridiculous understatement.

That's her acting range.

Most underrated comment

Not country for bold fremen

Brilliant! 😂

YAAS

For real.

It's an important detail that I'm glad that they added

well... this channel has to say something about something for their content. ;)

@@Thatit777 It was the Monty Python moment of the film.

Yes, but there's no need to because Fatboy Slim already explained it in the lyrics to "Weapon of Choice"

Only way to survive in this movie!

Let's just say that it's a short-term strategy

He was eating a zargnut.

Kind of amazing that Batista with minimal makeup is a believable alien :P

I found the visuals and music to be cool but the story and characters felt really bland to me, didn’t feel invested

Not all of the sand is spice

lmao yeah essentially read the books/ listen to audiobooks, they are spectacular

@@TR123 its like 50% sand 50% sand worm poop or spice xd

That's why their eyes are that weird shade of blue, actually.

@@monateru1712 Will do!

Actually I read Dune and that part was forgetful

@@mysteryjunkie9808 Have you read the other five?? Because it does play a fairly large role throughout the first three at least

I would have liked a bit of foreshadowing or exposition on the drum sand part, if you're going to go full walk, then at least EXPLAIN the part of the desert where it doesn't work anymore, lol.

So iconic Fatboy Slim had a hook about it in Weapon of Choice: "Walk without rhythm, you won't attract the worm."

I agree, when they covered it properly I squealed like the book-based fan girl I am.

Amen! This movie was so well made and just so beautiful, and I couldn't even watch it on the big screen - had to settle for my 55" TV.

@@Klm49 You mean you chose to not watch it on the big screen. You can leave your house.

The movie did not translate to IMAX very well. That said, I only saw it in IMAX and not a normal screen, so I don’t know how much of the fuzziness and pixilation was intended and how much was the upscaling / projection to the IMAX screen.

@@moffch4319 Watched it in Dolby at AMC. Was perfection. Def the way its meant to be seen.

Yup, you don't need a huge CGI battle if you have actual character development and an interesting world. It's obvious this isn't the whole story but the duel was a very satisfying half-finale.

"Who picked the worst possible planet to be an emo kid"

And unborn sibling Atreides

@@stevenwild39 I *wish*

@@angelfire1156 (sigh) that sounds incredibly wholesome. Please, accept my gift of water

Well MY dad made me WATCH the old movie, THEN the whole straight to dvd series, WHILE explaining the books. THEN I had to watch the new movie. So there. How’s that father daughter bonding.

@@dodgyyoutuber9560 doesen't sounds like fun(

Hey, what do you expect from a Villeneuve film? You're not SUPPOSED to know what's going on but to try and figure it out for yourself (and to come up with wildly different theories than others - with whom you'll argue about it for hours after seeing the film!)

Every scene whispered back almost unintelligibly: .....no.

The book: also no

The whole movie is context

@Centurion of Rome In fact, I feel like the movie sometimes does a better job at providing context than the books. :3

no contest there

Always

So proud of him. I had no idea it was even him until now, but it all makes sense

Definitely. Can't compete with Lady Jessica / Rebecca Ferguson, but the key letter here is L... This cast is like Mummy-level bisexual perfection.

How do I agree with this more?

THANK YOU!!!! I literally spoke to the screen to correct them!

Yaaaaaaas!

iM scOtt mAlkiSon, i hAve DiaBeTis

Yes!! I was looking for this comment!

Yes, most people don't get how far in the future Dune is. It's similar to how long human civilization exists now. Same time that took us to replace stone axes with smartphones. P.S. They use melee weapons - we made full circle xD

Reminds me of the Sarah Anderson webcomic about “Look! An emo in the wild! In the summer!!”

Exactly... I was picturing Christopher Walken dancing to Fatboy Slim

And then they stop doing that once a worm approaches. Good idea.

@@magicmulder If the worm is already attracted, there's really no point. What are you gonna do. Stand very still so he doesn't see you?

But why waste movement going side to side? You can walk forward without rhythm too.

@@KittyBoom360 It appears to be without rhythm, but there is a pattern to it, like a dance. It's just a dance with many seemingly unrelated steps at different tempos which seems random to us, and just sounds like the normal sounds of the desert to the worms. They learn that dance so they can do it unconsciously. When you walk you're doing it at a subconscious level, you're not actually thinking "OK now this foot is down so let's lift the other one and pull it forward", you did that when you were a baby learning to walk and now you've practiced it so much you don't even think about it. If the movement was truly random, you would have to consciously think about what to do next after every single step which would be mentally very draining and there's no way you could keep that up for hours without getting distracted and simply falling back into a normal walking pattern unconsciously.

That caught me so off guard that I fully cracked up and had to pause the video

right, it killed me 🤣🤣

It's facts

Me but then "Very Spice" and I really lost it.

Same

trust me i felt it was rushed

@@taiyabac.633 same here. I needed WAY more character development.

@@taiyabac.633 better in series, right

Beware of what you desire... That same idea is what delivered us "The Hobbit"... erm... *trilogy*...

@@franzrogar yeah but the Hobbit was an incredibly short book written for young adults, and Dune is very much the opposite of that. This movie was all style no substance. It needed more time.

SCOTLAND. FOREVERRRR

It's from Jordan I think

It's originally middle eastern so that's why probably

@@stevekillgore9272 bagpipes are from egypt originally actually

I was expecting Roddy Piper to walk out of a spaceship.

I came to say the same thing, it's an important detail from the books

Walk without rhythm and it won’t attract the worm!

It wasn't consistent though. They'd talk about how important it was and then *immediately* not do it.

@@underthemilkyway955 exactly!! They pretty much did it once, twice maybe? Other than that they walked normally, a few times seconds after mentioning the sand walk 🤨 annoyed me so much lmao

@@underthemilkyway955 I think it's more a safety precaution. If you're in a hurry you can take the chance that a worm won't show up.

same 😂

What is emo kid??

@@themanwithhighground4279 Emotional Hardcore, or Emo for short, is a music genre that in many ways is a renaissance of Romanticism: It celebrates emotional depth, melancholy, by being superficial and shallow.

@@davidwuhrer6704 sounds like every teenager to me

Funny and true. I disliked that they cast someone who doesn't look his age to cater to the teenager demographic in an otherwise excellent movie

I was kinda expecting that too

And now spooky marvel moon warrior

@@robdfar Muad'dib is the Fremen name of the 2nd moon of Arrakis (named after what they call the kangaroo mouse). So his character's son is the 'Moon warrior' or possibly 'kangaroo mouse warrior'.

@@IndigoIndustrial He was talking about the Moon Knight Character from Marvel. Who is getting a series.

When the sand worm jumps out of the dunes "they fly now ? They fly now !"

That's why they walk normally in the majority of the movie )

@@BoraHorzaGobuchulthey weren’t in work territory for the majority of the movie

@@PixlPlayer well that wasn't very apparent. For this to be clear, they'd ideally have to clearly show to the viewer that there are these two kinds of territory, and how the characters identify those... Maybe I missed it, but unlikely

One of the top comments but okay

@@ayva1106 you're right, it's weird for people to have the same thought and not read comments. SMH

@@MultiTequilaSunrise I mean like every other comment is about how the books are weird lmao it's not exactly a unique or original idea.

@@ayva1106 no ideas are truly original

@@ayva1106 you know multiple people can share their thoughts on the book right? They are weird books it’s not strange for Multiple people to say this.

To be fair to the corporations though, they don't have Kanly.

Frank Herbert would say “Yes, but one of them becomes a religion.”

I mean, that IS the point, though. Herbert actually wrote a thing previous to Dune about how we were doomed to make our next big war over offshore drilling. And then we're surprised when it turns out no one's the good guy here.

One of them was backed by the government. AND THEN their rival didn’t only overthrow said government, but also became a religion... Sooooo........

There are only three oil companies left, and they have divided up the planet among themselves. For now.

It's possible to realize during editing that a scene doesn't work in the movie. It's not that he was forced to cut it out, it's that he realized it needn't have been filmed in the first place.

The movie is already 2 and a half hours how long do you need it???

@@GrizbyK72yes

I'm just happy to see somebody else remembers and loves Congratulations the same way I do.

@@d3rrick10493 Congratulations!

Good luck, It took me about a dozen times before I got him to say one of mine. Honestly, I think you have far better a chance of him saying your suggestion if you make it about a future video they’ll end up making, at least that’s what finally worked for me on the Wandavision video.

To be fair, we only saw the attack on Arakeen. In the books we learn that the Harkonnen attacked every major city/outpost of the Atreides on Arrakis at once. So they had to have more people than just the troops that attacked the capital.

@@Wurzelknecht nevertheless, they specifically say “3 battalions” in the movie, not “3 legions”

@@artembentsionov ah, forgot that part.

Like Hollywood writers know the difference between a battalion and a legion.

@@vederianl9723 even they would look it up. But: film adaptations have to vary from books to some degree and vice versa, if they want to be any good.

underrated comment, lol

This made me chuckle

Skargaard the Hutt

It's totally true. George Lucas morphed Baron Harkkonen into Jabba the Hutt. Evil space empire getting bested by rebels from the desert too. Bene Gesserit voice magic became the Jedi mind trick. In fact the Jedi are a mashup of the Bene Gesserits and samurai.

he's like a Hutt Tywin Lannister

Jodorowsky: hold my blotter acid

If anyone can turn the weirdness up a notch David (twin peaks) Lynch can.

Jodorowski's vision for Dune was much less imaginative and weird than Dune, by a lot. Jodorowski's Dune looks like Baby's First Crayons compared to Lynch's Dune. And Lynch's Dune is like Paint By Numbers compared to Dune. Villeneuve's Dune is to Dune like Honest Trailers is to the film: Short, simplified, but mostly accurate and very enjoyable in itself, even better if you know the original. Also with epic sound and, of course the Voice. (Not Frank Sinatra.)

I just saw Ghostbusters: Finn Wolfhard already got his own ebony honey

"Dude!... How long have you been standing there!"

😂😂😂

Lmao David Bautista

LMFAO

He was eating a zargnut.

Please do "Don't look up" trailer

Same! Honestly the first half of the book is so much better written. Adapting the 2nd half is going to be a huge challenge. Less detailed writing + some really weird events that might be hard to take to the screen (a 2 year old assassin, for example). I think starting with Part 1 was genius though.

@@jasoneckle3569, first of all, shhhhhhhhhhhh! with the spoilers!!! :))))))) Second of all, everyone is going with someone who read the book so everyone will be cool.

They didn't say it in the movie, they have no idea it was key in the book

Nice R & M reference

James Mcavoy would agree 😉

It's interesting that everyone always points to God Emperor for the "oh the sequels get really weird" thing talking to non-book readers. I feel it really kinda just gloss over a lot of narrative both before and after god emperor

@@meh27143 It's hard to present things that arch over multiple books of world building to someone who has not read the books. How do you describe the post-Scattering Tleilaxu culture that was built up in the series starting in the second book, in one or two sentences. OTOH, "A dude that turns into a Worm" is something people will start visualising instantly.

@@meh27143 Chapterhouse: Dune (6) was the weirdest by far for me. haven't read them in like 15 years tho.

It's actually around 20-21k years into the future

The bagpipes is the mark of only ONE house, the Atreides. There are 157 Great Houses in the Unverse of the Dune, not to mention the lesser houses and folks without even a house (like the Fremen).

And palm trees

Yes, my life is now more fulfilled now I know how they move across the sand.

@@MultiChrisjb You've never read the book huh?

I just wish they didn't try to make it look like some trendy dubstep dance. Think how long it would take to get anywhere moving like that!

@@bobbobson4607 You've never read the book huh?

@@MultiChrisjb This, but unironically.

And Patrick Stewart plays Gurney Halleck in the Lynch adaptation. Coincidence? I think not! :)

dont forget, Patrick Steward was Gurney in 84 Dune. So another professor X

@@benkoferenc3365 yup and he even got to play the baliset, unlike poor Thanos

McAvoy was great

@@swarm8772 apparently they did have him play but it was cut. Will probably be included in the directors cut ultimate edition on boo ray

The baron's debauchery is well know through out the universe.

There's a horrific theory floating around that it (the spider gimp) might be Dr. Yueh's wife, taken apart and reassembled by the Tleilaxu.

Laughs in Tleilaxu.

But did you SING it?

Nobles?

I mean, ignoring the drugs, future sight and religious genocide of the first couple books, it starts to get weird about halfway through Children. Basically anything Leto II is involved in or responsible for.

@@BonaparteBardithion the Golden Path to Weirdness

Best. book. ever.

@@TooMuchToCareAbout2 i second that

Just to clarify I'm referring to book 4: God Emperor of Dune

Sorry to disappoint you but part 2 is going to see the light in 2023. 😭😩

@@Lunal73 Not related to what was said I don’t think.

Aw yeah...Tarsem used to make movies which would work without storyline or dialogue. The pictures say it all.

@@immanueljungheim8512 imagine Dune made in the style of The Fall. What a feast for the eyes that would be. But this one is absolutely stunning, too.

How much spice are you on? It was pretty dull and one note visually.

Sure, it was "one note"; if that note was...you know, freaking Dune. And if I'm on spice then that means I'm seeing _deeper_ into the heart of things than everyone else, so maybe find a new avenue for discrediting? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It got me good too

I want to ask a question: what kind of a childhood did you have, were you happy?

@@yorumlardakrdysamaffedinlutfen Yeah, probably more than most in the world. I wasn't rich, but I acknowledge the privileges I had growing up. Compared to the rest of the world at that time, I would say I had it better than 88% of the rest of the world.

@@petekaiser8856 Thank you for your answer Can we say that people are also happy in countries with high social development?

@@yorumlardakrdysamaffedinlutfen People can be happy anywhere. Happiness is something attainable by all.

Sadly, in the SW sequels, that meant a quick demotion to extra - he and Finn were neither Rey nor the Emo Sith himself, so no room to make them actually matter.

That's actually in the book though.

Me too,

Poe Dameron's backstory in the films is that he used to be a spice runner...

Try paying Gal Gadot, Ryan Reynolds and Dwayne Johnson to get together. They don't even have to do anything, just be at a specific place at a specific time together. And you'll probably already find yourself running in the millions...

I never heard of that movie.

Movie studios need to stop including actor's salaries in the budgets.

@@Cuzjudd you don't think actor's salaries are a cost of movies?

@@asmosisyup2557 yeah but I like to know how much everything cost outside of salaries

Not only that. His mother's named Jessica, his friend's named Duncan and the badguy's named Vladimir.

Common American names and an ultra famous Greek last name 🤣🤣 (Atreides is the name of a royal lineage in Greek mythology/tragedies, including Agamemnon and Menelaus, the husband of Helen). I still remember when I read Dune how funny "Paul Atreides" sounded :P !!

The original book "Dune" was written in 1964, so yeah...

Neither Luke nor Paul are Western names.

Considering Dune was heavily inspired by T.E. Lawrence (and Lawrence of Arabia), Paul is acceptable. Or would you rather he be named Thomas?

The ironic thing about God Emperor is that it's basically the only book where the entire cast *isn't* on drugs (due to the spice shortage).

I don’t dare to dream God Emperor will ever be made into a movie 😞

Fucking awesome!

Giant larv with a human face, on IMAX screen? Yeah, nah man, imma bout to skip that future

I would so love to see that 3 part movie.

MacGuffins. Dune felt like a string of MacGuffins to me... it def was half a movie. it was like Tennet, in that, some bits were epic other bits horrible. the horrible bits, the acting.

This is a bad take. I'll take the comfort of my own home over a theater full of obnoxious strangers any day

@@Mare_Man I don't know about where you live, but where I am, theatres are anything but full. I've come close to getting a private showing on several occasions.

Very Spice indeed!

*Cue Sakaar Chant* 😁

HT is getting way too casual with their spoilers. Not for the movie that the trailer is about, that's a given, but for other things that there's no spoiler warning for, like they did at the end of this one. Or spoiling stranger things 2 in the stranger things 1 trailer. Or the Matrix sequels in the Matrix 1 trailer. Or the Matrix sequels again in the Loki trailer.

lol those are minor spoilers, my first encounter with dune was in a book swap reading the like 5th book and then dune: chapter house and lastly dune: messiah (second book)

@@jonathanrichards5343 I don't really get too annoyed at spoilers of decades old stories but I get why it could be annoying for some people.

it's one of those story things that sound meaningless until you actually get to the part, don't worry about it

@@jonathanrichards5343 When they do things for older movies, I don't think it's a huge deal because you figure most people have seen it, but they've done things like that with shows based on books. Things that were either left out of the movie, or things that are in the book sequels.

To be fair after thousands of years we are not sure about dates either, though that was likely unintentional

Who cares. It said something like year 10,100…to me that’s 8 thousand years into the future

It doesn't matter

@@noelv1976 It's 20,000 years in the future from our perspective. For the Dune universe, everything starts from the Butlerian Jihad/Machine crusade. That is basically year zero, so 10,000 years from then.

@@noelv1976 Well if you are using human era calendar then it is 2 thousand years into the past because in this calendar we are living in 12021 year. ;)

I don't know, I think the idea that Zendaya is actively collecting notches on her ''cute white boy belt'' might have been my favorite bit ^_^

@@mehditalbi5913 it’s from funny song „Zendaya is Meeche”:)

@Robert I let out the ugliest little chuckle at that part😂

The Hobbit should have been one movie, the book is shorter than any single Lord of the Rings book and they were one movie each.

I mean you could definitely split dune into 3 movies

Actually Dune should be 3 movies. There are tons of important scenes which were not in the movie and happen before Harkonnens attack.

Rankin/Bass did it in 78 minutes

@@wojtek1582 pretty sure scifi channel did an adaptation that was something like 7 installments at 1 hour each PS: looked it up, and it was only 4.5 hours total, but then I remembered sci fi channel has a 60/40 commercial to show ratio so 7 hours is about right
