One of my favourite things in Dune Part Two that I picked up on my 4th & 5th viewings was how Villeneuve's incredible direction really reaches its zenith during the confrontation between Paul & Shaddam and in the final duel.It's all in the looks the characters give each other.… pic.twitter.com/BpFsPKsjb2— The Sietch of Sci-Fi (@TSoS_) March 22, 2024

Fan of the book here. I think Villeneuve, along with Peter Jackson, is one of the very few filmmakers to ultimately improve upon the source material. https://t.co/Re58sONOfU— Richard Newby - New Account (@NewbyRichard3) March 2, 2024
Josh Harding on X: "Favorite aspect of Dune 2 is how aggressively “anti-blockbuster” it is. Every aspect of the standard Chosen One narrative here is filled with portent and dread. The movie doesn’t want Paul to become the One. Once he does, even the “epic final battle” intentionally feels wrong." / X

#DunePart2 Chani Book ChaniZendaya was magnificent. But, I wish Denis had included the storyline of baby Leto, adding more emotional depth. It would have been even more devastating if Chani had become pregnant with their first child only to lose him in the Sardaukar attack. pic.twitter.com/ITbFXdczjs— nina (@21Nina_) March 1, 2024

Yeah, Dennis made it more crystal clear than in Herbert’s own book that this is not a white savior trope. At least not anything like Dances With Wolves. It’s more like real life, where white colonizers felt it was their burden to civilize Indigenous people, that lead to genocides— House of Fire and Blood (@HouseofFireand2) March 1, 2024
