Rebecca Ferguson Was Sold When She Saw Director Denis Villeneuve's Love For "Dune" 

She's actually the one that recites the litany against fear

Agreed. She’s amazing in it!

Well good, she can act. Because irl life she is rather dumb. I've seen about 4 interviews with her and she is a pseudo intellectual. She can parrot words, phrases and terms of deeper meaning yet doesn't really grasp them herself.

@@Facetiously.Esoteric incel spotted

@@samasoku Yes. You can look in a mirror and see a weepy triggered fanboy incel. Good you can admit it...

Neither had Cate Blanchett readed before being Galadriel

@@jessica5497 i didn't know that, and I feel bad because it's no less amazing!

Ferguson is one thing. The movie is another. The trailers are not promising. 1) It's too much CGI, 2) the main actor (playing Paul) is an unknown kid who's still struggling to act, and 3) the dialog is limp and inconsistent with the first book. All of which means I will be giving this one a hard pass.

@@wanderingfido I'm German, so the film has already premiered here. I've seen it three times by now. Believe me. It's pretty good. Especially the acting and visuals. The only criticism I'd have is the music by Hans Zimmer that is just a little bit too grounded for my taste. I would have wished something a little bit more colorful for Dune. But the soundtrack is still very decent and supportive of the incredible scenery.

@@maniak1768 I went back and rewatched the trailers. But still can't find any nuance nor gravitas. This flick is pandering too much to 'tweens. Of whom, ironically, will never watch it.

@@wanderingfido the trailers are pretty bad compared to the movie, I’ve seen it and it’s great

@@wanderingfido I've read the novel and I'm a huge fan of it, too, and this is such a dedicated and faithful adaptation that I don't think the judgement on basis of the trailers is grounds for anything. I was worried when seeing the trailers, too. I had extremely high expectations knowing the original material and I'm not a bit disappointed. The book is after all about a 15 year old protagonist, so I don't know what you're expecting from a Dune adaptation. I'm pretty satisfied by the film that Villeneuve made out the book. That said, I think that Paul Atreides is definitely not a Luke Skywalker sort of hero, but a protagonist that makes, given his prescient nature, more and more questionable choices, which is also quite obvious in the movie. The film captivates the richness of the novel to an impressive degree, I'd say. The trailers just contain sequences from the action scenes, though. They are of course marketing and targeted at a broad audience, not at a sci-fi-audience or fans of the book who will see the movie anyway. The film itself is definitely a little more nuanced than the trailers. I promise.

......is she the main character? WHY would she "carry the film"?!?!? If that what the movie IS, then that's just a fuckin' stupid movie! HELLO, Snow White's 7 Dwarves could NEVER be FEMALES, but if you're so smart....EXPLAIN how that would logically work!

@@josepheclesopasno6051 what?

@@josepheclesopasno6051 bruh read the book and stfu , is like asking "Why MArtha Kent is so important for Superman? or Why Bulma is so pivotal to Dragon Ball? "

@@ukiyoideas2215 dam😂😂😂

@@ukiyoideas2215 Why IS Martha Kent so important for Superman? Lemme guess, he's not "super" because he's a friggin' alien with powers derived from the Sun, NO...it's because Martha sewed him a costume and shared a teet...and no Jonathan Kent?!?! She wasn't a single mom, btw, so why IS Martha Kent so important? Sorry, didn't read or see Dragonballs so I don't know....guess I was too busy getting laid!

agreed

View it in 3D if your local cinema offers it!

Maybe a younger Cate Blanchett?

No you didn't know lol

@@Chinaski1 Cate would be far better

@@votranvietanh8494 Too old. And I don't see the vulnerability in her that Rebecca can do.

None of those were good movies, visually amazing, yes. Written like crap, and poorly directed. I can't say for Sicario, didn't see it.

And his first serious film "Incendies" may be his best... Relatively unknown, compared to those other ones, but powerful, amazing, unforgettable for me.

@Cthulhu lives - Bull. "Arrival" is very well written and directed, excellent sci-fi. "Sicario" is also excellent, when viewed as a very violent film about the current, grim social and political problems in Mexico, especially along the border with the US.

He's on next week

Agreed, as a brit thats where we saw her first and then she’s nailed everything since then.

Great show

I have a hard time looking past Rose the Hat lately! Either way she can perfectly portray most any role!

Dr sleep she nailed it.

Life (2017), my first, ehm, encounter with her. Very good movie too

Venom, Spiderman and Eternals were never threat to Dune's "movie of the year" status though. Different leagues.

Bond…………james bond

Loved Dune. Watched 3 times too.

Luckily the actually are! Denis' directing some episodes too!

Bene Gesserit: Missionaria Impossible

🤣🤣🤣🎖

@@stevenflores5988 Yes, it’s to be called “Dune: The Sisterhood”

Absolutely

Did you ever catch the syfy miniseries? It covers the first 2 books

@@Jennino95 No, I've never heard of it... can't seem to find it either (from outside the US). That would've been cool.

i imagine the trailer is what's supposed to entice a male audience to see the movie. it only seels an idea of the movie, so they cut a thing that will put bums on seats. i remember the first trailer last year was less funny than the one this year too. i figure they wanted people to think it was funnier (it's not).

She was so good in Dr Strange that I struggle to not dislike and be terrified of her in reality.

She does nail the part.

liar

Honestly she could perfectly portray most any role.

@@MrJB8383 tell that to my goodreads/diary entries😈

Nice.

@@shannond7437 right? I love her

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-neNKzb3yP_Y.html

Really? I never read the book, yet i still understood everything in both the 1984 movie and the 2003 Children of Dune.

I never readed the book and i understood 🤔

That’s great to hear. She’s almost the main character of the book

Her decision to gift Duke Leto a son instead of a daughter as she was instructed to do by the Bene Gesserit, is the reason we have a six novel epic. 👾🦾

It should be out in the UK already. October 22 is the US release.

@@VinceValentine nope some places not nationwide.

@@VinceValentine the 22nd is the release for lots of countries, including the US.

@@birdsofafeather8368 Ok, most of Western Europe had it since mid-September.

@@VinceValentine yes I am aware, but no English-speaking countries have gotten it yet.

covid sucks here in NZ that's why I will not be able to see it in IMAX T_T

@@cchen-wq2nm if you get vaccinated maybe yes? or at smaller cinema at a showing with less people?

​@@BHCha- we are currently in lockdown so all cinemas are close T_T

I can't really see it, but I do think she has the charisma and beauty of the old Hollywood stars. I've thought that since I first saw her in MI.

i like the bizarre characters and the witches

you do realize all movies have to edit and cut things to adapt them to the screen. what works in a book won’t work on screen, etc

@@sammysoppy3361 yep, I'll try not to take that in a patronizing tone. Leaving out things like the Emperor, or the folding of space and the hand of the Guild in the plot against the Atreides is a bit more significant than leaving Tom Bombadil out of LotR.

Dune 1984 is great. Considered a true classic.

No it doesn't. Jessica is supposed to be a red head. And considerably older than this.

@@jayarava Her hair color is **entirely** inconsequential to the story, as is her age.

Where did you watch it? It's not released yet

@@androadi3036 It's released abroad already. I saw it two weeks ago.

@@androadi3036 Amsterdam ;)

well jessica is a very important character but the story of dune is not about her. it’s about paul’s arc…. and knowing how things go in the rest of the book/series… it makes sense if she recedes a bit more

@@obsoerver7272 Oh, who cares. Her job is acting and she is perfect in the role. Josh Brolin also didn't read it.
