They got a bigger budget in Children of Dune..and the acting improved greatly.

Kind of amazing what they've pulled off considering the type of scene dressing they had. Like literal painted canvas in the background and that's it. No wonder they've reused explosion scenes multiple times. Imagine how costly the cgi must have been compared to the rest. It looks horrible by today's standards but around 2000?

I was going to say this was like a high school performance of a Shakespearean play…

@@Kokuyous3ki it still looked horrible in 2000 mate. Cringe as the kids would say 😆. In fact watching this has reminded me of how clunky sci fi used to be until we got decent special effects. Of course these days it goes the other way and drowns you in CGI soup.

@@Kokuyous3ki It managed by the standards of 2000, because its budget wasn't high enough for bad CGI. I think viewing it like a stage production actually enhances the viewing experience.

Because the direction was to capture the ridiculous opulence and extravagance the Great Houses had and were accustomed to. These people were the galactic elites; the richest and highest born houses fighting for control of the one source of the one substance that made it all possible. They were so outlandish because they could afford to be. They were so ridiculous because they could kill with impunity anyone who dared breathe a word against them, unless they were peers, and they were all in it together.

I was looking forward to CW as the emperor, but it was far less interesting in reality...

Yeah, despite how absurd this all is, I'd have loved to see the Emperor's court to be pretty absurd, just a stupid display of wealth that no sane person could take seriously. Still love that they got Christopher Walken though.

I was hoping Charles Dance would have been cast as the Emperor. He would have actually been able to pull of the "jealous and dangerous" aspect of his character. He would have been as terrifying as the Baron. I'm still salty about that one casting choice. At first, I thought it was just a joke that Walken was cast as a meme, until he said "More, more, give me more!" That took me right out of it. I was like, really? Cowbell joke at the climax of your film? WTH?

@PenTheMighty I got tha' fever and the only cure is...more spice! 😄

It is not just Kung Fu Hands. Them are also Tai Chi Hands! Also other hands do similar things ... you know? 47 Ronin know! Despite what the legend may tell!

I felt this was pretty faithful to the books. Chani was certainly better portrayed here than by Zendaya whose Chani was angry the whole time.

Alec Newman's portrayal of Paul Atreides has always been my favorite (especially after seeing the new films which they look great don't get me wrong BUT that's about all those movies have going for them, the substance is non existent in those new films. They don't mention CHOAM, the guild navigators, folding space and all kinds of important elements of the story, they just skip over them like they're not even important) from the sci-fi channel's adaptation of Dune, the two miniseries they made from the first three books in the series. I've always thought Alec Newman was the perfect Paul Atreides, he's not some pretentious pretty boy who's 90lbs soaking wet trying to convince us he's some bad ass(like the actor who plays Paul in those new movies).

And costumes where so close to the style of Moebius

"Solid adaption"? Obviously you never even came near the novel.

I just started watching the first episode. Either the writing or acting isn't very good. It's painful in some spots.

Well your movie stinks.

In concept it was done well but those costume decisions are inexcusable.

More importantly, she saw the past. Earlier in the book, Feyd was in the pits fighting a single captured Atreides soldier. The man had been drugged, had a poor quality knife, and was previously tortured- Feyd on the other hand had various barbed hooks, spare knives, everything he'd need to kill this man. And he BARELY managed to win. That lone, nameless Atreides mook came within millimeters of ending Feyd's life right then and there. And he was idolized for it by the other Harkonnen, even the civilian population! It took everything Feyd Rautha had to kill a single GRUNT, and he was a hero across Geidi Prime. And now he is to go up against the heir to Atreides himself? Feyd never had a chance in Hell, even without Paul's abilities of foresight, Feyd was doomed the moment he accepted the Emperor's blade. I was giggling along with Alia.

Honestly, Alia creeps me the hell out. A friend of mine said she popped out the womb fully intelligent. Lol I mean wtf? How the hell do you raise a kid like that??

@@rhorybader4054 That Atreides grunt sounds badass! Feyd should have taken the girl's giggling as a dark omen and noped the hell out of there!

@@axel4196 he was the BASELINE for House Atreides' military. He was a God damned GI, a standard nameless grunt. There's a reason the Emperor feared the rise of Duke Leto, and why he had to launch a sneak attack with the full might of the Sardaukar plus House Harkonnen to have any chance in hell of snuffing that star out.

@@rhorybader4054 That’s because the man was not drugged. It was Feyd’s ploy I believe but the soldier was fully present.

He saw her as a pawn and a victim of the political games of her father and the Bene Gesserit sisterhood. I guess in the end, she understood this and it is why she took it upon herself to be the guardian of Muad'Dib's twin children. They in turn loved her very much and the Paul persona inside them, was grateful and loved her to an extent for her dedication.

Huh? She goes out of her way to try and prevent Chani having Paul's children and likely indirectly killed her. She was always a snake in the grass.

@@patrickwaldeck6681 Well that is the political power struggle in DUNE. House Corrino was basically brought to extinction of by Muad'Dib, just like Shaddam IV had tried with House Atreides, also leading to House Harkonnen to become extinct aside Paul's bloodline who carries it. Irulan was not as bad as Wensisia (her younger sister, and I possibly misspelled her name BTW) Irulan did what she did because she in fact ended up falling in love with Muad'Dib, while her sister was the real garbage snake because she was hell bent into retaking the Emperor's throne for House Corrino. And it separates the sisters too, because one never understood how much of a tool of her father and the Bene Gesserits she was, but eventually she broke free of them. She had a part to play for the Golden Path. The other was a ruined wretch of a "noble" trying desperately to retake control.

You have a bad, or selective memory of Irulan. I have read the books twice, and I remembered she was in on the Bene Gesserit/Guild conspiracy against Paul. 'Meanwhile, conspirators begin plotting against Paul in the shadows. The Bene Gesserit, Spacing Guild, and Tleilaxu, through a combined effort, create a plan hidden from the prescience of Paul. With the plan to kill Paul, Reverend Mother Mohiam employs Princess Irulan, daughter of Padishah Emperor Shaddam IV'. @@EternalRoman

@@patrickwaldeck6681Paul couldn't find a future where Chani didn't die in childbirth. In the book and the sequel-series to this, he thanks Irulan for technically keeping Chani alive longer by delaying the pregnancy itself.

This is more fulfilling and a happier ending than what they did to Zendaya... 😢

Yeah I gotta agree, kind of why I like the first book the best. Kinda bummed that not only do they rob the story of its catharsis and resolution, but they also completely undermine "the spice must flow" nature of power the book is about. Yeah, this adaptation is Dr Who levels of silly and cheap, but got DAMN it is sincere and faithful!

I wish I could take the action and battle scenes from the latest movies and put them in this series. Yeah, the ending of _2_ was messed up. Like Chani is upset for most of the film about her Fremen tribe following Paul as a person foretold. Then doesn't see the big picture of the marriage alliance and walks off into the desert because Paul won't marry her? Sounds like the filmmakers don't understand what the deal was about political marriage and concubines; or think that modern women couldn't identify with a Chani that supports Paul, so had to change her.

Oops, thought you meant Alia. Irulan was a bit too mouthy to her father who was supposed to be so fearsome she and her sisters were afraid of what he might do. But whatever.

Sadly, in the process they took everything of interest from the movie.

They may have gotten the story right, but everything else is very distracting and it's hard to watch.

Bullshit I love this version.

Agree, its the most "fatefull" adaptation of the book. But the bad CGI, bad sets, costumes and for the most part, bad pacing and acting is what "ruins" it. It feel more like a play than a "feature" movie/mini series. I sometime wonder if being true to the book was the reason for it being "bad". I enjoyed it at the time, but i remembet cringind at every turn watching back when it was released. Even Lynch for all the weirdness in his adaption, feels more like Dune than this. Still read the book once every 1 or 2 years! With that said its a must watch for Dune fanatics. =)

@@Brissebrajan Exactly, this series was obviously set up by a theater production. Flashy, gaudy costumes and exaggerated, grandiose acting is great in a stage play, where the audience is seeing the action at a great distance. In a filmed experience, however, it just comes off as cheap and hammy. It was an already difficult story to translate to film without the added obstacle of the weird directing choice. As much as I enjoyed it, it's objectively a back-to-front mess

​@@SlickAstley_TVI worked in the 'biz' as a cinematographer; it was actually very faithful to Frank Herbert's book. It is preferable to the 2022 Tommyrot version !😮

I haven't heard much criticism of the series _Dune_ or _Children of Dune._ I think it was missed or ignored. William Hurt was the only name-actor, and his performance was dry like in _The Accidental Tourist._ People do talk about _Dune (1984),_ saying I should see it. But clips I've seen are so ridiculous. I must have liked the first one enough, because I bought the DVD of _Children of Dune,_ too. Saying it looks like a stage play with the funky costumes doesn't bother me. Who knows what people will wear 10,000 years in the future? The only costumes that should matter, are Fremen stillsuits which should cover the body to recycle water and waste products, and be covered by robes, since they are not supposed to be exposed to the sun. But due to theatrics, they don't do this in the movies and shows, always showing their faces and wearing a nose plug. A key scene in _God Emperor of Dune_ is when he takes Siona into the desert but she forgets to cover her face and loses so much water, she might not survive. How do you do that, after letting people go maskless for a couple movies?

Fortunately they had some fantastic casting choices to make up for the costuming. Especially in Children of Dune. Before Professor X, James McAvoy was The Whirlwind.

But this is how people are going to dress 20,000 years in the future. 😉

I think it just takes some thinking about to realize; the crazy outfits were all Imperial in origin; the Fremen certainly weren't going about their daily lives in butterfly hats. It was a way to highlight how spoiled rich and ridiculous they all were.

@@BactchanIt seems inspired by the ridiculous ruffs, silly hats, and other impractical clothing of the late Medieval through Enlightenment eras. The shapes are different, but the basic idea of ridiculous outfits to show power and status are the same.

I don't think people at court wearing frivolous, fancy outfits torpedo the series. I do think people going unmasked in the Dune desert so the camera can see their faces is pretty bad. Paul fighting in some kind of robe-skirt is potentially suicidal, but that doesn't seem what the comments around here are about.

same... the book series and each adaptation... love them all

And sometimes the spice is peyote, and sometimes it flows into the costume department's air vents, but damnit it flows regardless!

Yes the first dune book is incredible, I have read it maybe 10xs God emperor of dune I didn't like until I read it again then one more time and it's brilliant. What do you think of dune chapter house, I really like it, what do you think?

I only watched the Dune with Sting. I enjoyed it. I just finished the book last night and was thinking of watching the made for tv version. This clip does not sit right with me, the acting would be very absorbing to the eyes of a child, I am sure. This just has too much hamming it up and too much cheese. I bet Japan could do a real great animated feature which would do the book justice.

@@Frey12 wasn't that a surprise The way they converted the matriarchs into something completely different and impossibly stronger than the Bene Gesserit.

Jodorosky's Dune, while never made, is still present in many groundbreaking Sci-Fi movies that came after...

He would have looked far worse and crazier, people complain about the costumes in this show, but in the Jodorosky version, every character would have looked insane.

thank God joborowski never got his shot😬😬

That doesn't sound right. The key to Arrakis as the Duke saw it was "desert power." He sent Duncan Idaho with Stilgar to foster relations. He expected an attack by Baron Harkonnen's forces augmented by the Emperor's Sardaukar, but didn't think they'd hit so fast and with so many troops it cost them 50 years of profit to bribe the Guild. And of course ferreting out a traitor wasn't given the highest priority.

Hmmmm, for what it's worth and if you can stop laughing long enough, it's actually more book accurate. Other than that it's...well.....

Because unlike you they have taste

The fans of the latest version of Dune seem to have never seen a movie before.

People tell me to watch Dune (1984), but the clips I've watched are ridiculous. This at least is faithful to the book, including the ending about concubines being the true wives of those who must marry for political alliance. If there's a criticism to be had it's low-budget green screen fights and battles as well as silly looking outfits, like Paul is wearing during the fight. But silly looking outfits by those in the royal entourage is to be expected.

They had to use black light and UV-reactive contacts in a lot of these scenes and didn't always hit the mark.

@@Bactchan Yeah, I just rewatched one of the episodes with commentary and they said that. One question: Why do humans have whites in their eyes (sclera)? My first search result said it may be for signaling where to look for social animals that cooperate. I remember reading that dogs can pick up on a human's eye movement and may look or go where one is looking, but other animals like Chimps or gorillas that might not cooperate very much do not. Also they don't like to look people or each other in the eye because it's a sign of aggression.

Her character was evil ike Palps too.

@@DagwoodDogwoggle Not at first. At some point during adolescence or on the verge of adulthood in _Children of Dune,_ she loses her mind to the many ancestral memories and gives the Baron Harkonnen dominance within her to silence them. Funny, now that I think of it, how could a Bene Gesserit female/Reverend Mother meet her paternal ancestors within? Wasn't that the point of breeding a Qwisatz Haderach? But somehow achieving consciousness in the womb changed that. I think one of the twins says the Bene Gesserit should have allowed at least one "abomination" in their line, so descendants whom that happened to could benefit from the experience. Well, some Reverend mothers are probably descended from Ghanima, so if it happens again.... Or it could be one of the many changes the story took from _Dune_ to _Dune Messiah_ to _Children of Dune_ to _God Emperor of Dune._ Like bringing back Duncan Idaho as a Ghola.

Jodorowski would applaud your comment. He is alive living in Paris today. He has written books on psycho shamanism. He tome on Dune sparked the story line of many sci Fi TV and movies after his visions.

The costumes had a distinctly Ancient Egyptian vibe to them. Except for those god-awful hats that look like they were taken from a party at Jake Gatsby's house. I actually like the new series, on HBO. The 1984 was quite good too. I did like the internal dialogue. Was not distracted at all.
