A discussion of the lore of the Spacing Guild and how space travel works in Frank Herbert’s story VERSUS how this was adapted for Denis Villeneuve’s Dune Part One. In an interview with Empire magazine director Denis Villeneuve has now revealed his reasoning behind some of his creative decisions. In this interview I found a few of his comments regarding the Spacing Guild and the design and function of their ships especially enlightening.

I think Villeneuve’s interpretation is brilliant: They are freighter ships but from the destination’s perspective they look like portals because they are folding space. It’s genius

@infinati

Hello from 2024. Part 2 didn't explain this at all.

@jonrobinson4308 2 года назад

I like the new look. I think that the Holtzman engine still folds space, like in the book, but when it activates the ship is essentially in 2 places at once. If you look up at the skies of Caladan, you can see the heighliner the same if you look up at the skies of Kaitain. The ship is in a bubble of foldspace. Travelling without moving

I love how Guild representatives look basically like priests or popes in space helmets. That would make the Navigators their gods.

My hypothesis: Its the same ship on both ends. Not like a stargate that links two identical pieces. You fly in it on one end and out of it on the other. Its the same ship on both ends. In two places at the same time. Like the famous dot on the folded paper or the pen sticking trough both sheets, that are always used as the cliché explanation for wormholes.

@HugoStiglitz88

Well part 2 didn't explain it at all lol hopefully 3 will

I'm an Artist, so naturally I would have wanted to see every aspect of the Ships, The Emperor on Kaitain so we could have seen the Emperor and the Navigators plotting together to overthrow House Atreides. We've had 50 years of mystery, it's time to look behind the curtain. We may not get a second glance thanks to Russia poising for war with Ukraine and the United States of America along with China and other small countries doing their part to create genocide. So, as an artist, I say to Dennis, Show US the Mystery via magical CGI............. It's what the audience with a 5th grade education wants to see with a 5 second attention span these days. Few people read anymore - sadly for words ARW the Mystery, thanks to Frank Herbert and his faithful Son.

remember it is not impossible to fold space without spice, it is just incredibly dangerous. the navigators don't actually do it, they just have the prescience to see the safe route from the FTL engine, otherwise the ship could end up inside a star or just totally off course.

I would love to see a director’s cut - long 4-5 hour version on DVD :)

@arisakathedappergoose4796 2 года назад

When I saw that the highliners were worm-like, I got the impression that they are portal-

@jorgeabraham3414 2 года назад

I love the design so much, is nothing like the usual ships in other films that feels really mechanical, this one gives a sensation of an organic thing, and I think he pretty nailed the feeling of mistery and mysticism he wanted to achieve. I trust blindly in Denis vision. (Thank you so much for your content, it's outstanding)

@marxug1 2 года назад

I’m kind of enchanted by D.V.’s “portal or ship?” ambiguity. Some on this thread really smash their heads against this, but others suggest something fascinating: that while space is being folded, the heighliner is in both places at once. So the ship’s hollow center can behave as a tunnel, then when the navigators “de-fold” space, the heighliner resolves to one or the other location. I do hope this is Denis’ thinking!

@jerrysstories711 2 года назад

One of the most awesome visuals in the movie was near the start of the attack, the Guild heighliner so immense it's visible from the ground while in orbit over Arrakis! Wow! And it looked so realistic!

@virgiliopalacio5196 2 года назад

This concept of space ship and travel is awesome, for those who read the book, spacing guild use the term 'traveling without moving' I think Denis tríes to show this method in the movie.

@raymalik5171 2 года назад

I love the mystery of the ships and the space guild, almost otherworldly and ominous

@thethunderperfctmind 2 года назад

I kinda did a double-take looking at that scene where you can see through the Heighliner to its point of origin; considering that it's a kind of technology that is physically impossible as far as we know, I decided it makes about as much sense as any other depiction of FTL travel in any kind of SF universe. It's not as if we can look at it and say "well that's not realistic," as if we know from experience. Plus it looks pretty cool, which at the end of the day is the really the most important thing anyway.

@michaelcaldwell3181 2 года назад

Sometimes less is more. It allows the viewer to fill in the spaces with their own imagination. When done well it draws a person further into the story. Alfred Hitchcock was famous for using this technique.

@leocmen 2 года назад

Suppose the heighliner is big enough till the point that when folding the long distances in space, instanteously, part of the vessel is already in the destination.

@voyagersalt 2 года назад

Based on what you see in the movie, my bet is that the heighliner is in two places at once in foldspace, with the smaller vessels passing through them to their destination. It’s genius.
