@calderdune: The Tragedy of Paul Atreides as described by Frank Herbert. Wanted to put together a video about Paul, and the depth of how “stuck” he really is, and how Dune 3 can use that. Please stay until the end, I share my favorite passage from the book with some personal footage:) I apologize for my contested voice im coming off a week of being crazy sick! 🎵: Places - Alaskan Tapes #dune #denisvilleneuve #movies #scifi #frankherbert

sandman :

Really scared for the 3rd movie, I do not think the general audience will truly understand that he is not meant to be the hero

cozylumberjack :

“A war in my name…You Bene Gesserit made me into a freak…”

Reuben Harker :

A good child cursed from birth to do bad things.

Mason :

never watched dune but this video alone is the reason i will watch them.

yoofz :

“he wanted to flee from his own mind, it was a beast come to devour him.” this is written so beautifully. We all have that beast in our head that attacks us. Until the day come where we face our beast and tear it to shred. Will we then be free?

Ty :

Fear is the mind killer

Danny :

i haven’t read the books but i’ve seen fans talk about how the movie doesn’t show us casuals how tragic paul is. but i feel like the end of the first act of dune 1 is when i saw it. paul was pushed by everyone but his father to be something. when his father died and the war started he lost his last chance to truly have agency over his own story.

jvhbito :

I’m guessing prepare for a sad ending

gaia :

i've red it in my native language so i can't quote the book in english, but I think one of the scenes in the book that struck me the most was when at the end of book 1 Paul sees the way Gurney and Stilgar look at him and realizes that he gained disciples but lost friends in his way to power.

Noah 🎸 :

“Swallowed by his own image” ; beautiful, I love this description of the destructive impact that this idea of who Paul is takes away from who he can become with his own free will. Not what others planned or sought for him

Jaden :

Paul Atreides is a slave to his destiny. I love how he was portrayed and written in the books. Read the series at work when I was bored and just could not touch any books for about a year after I finished this series.

noir :

greatness as always

Rotem :

I truly feel sorry for him.

 :

sat here and watched entirely without ever seeing any Dune. Great perspective

Ace✪ :

the way you break down the newest dune movies, the characters, the story, the environment, everything is so well put. i love it when your breakdowns come up on my page.

l3ostitt :

Amazing video vro! 👏🏼👏🏼

aUFCfan#2 :

If this is what we get in Dune 3 it’ll be the best trilogy of all time.

“Greatness is a transitory experience. It is never consistent. It depends in part upon the myth-making imagination of humankind. The person who experiences greatness must first have a feeling of the myth he is in…” - Frank Herbert

LK | Movies & Books Review :

He was a victim of Fate.

Gabe :

Beautiful video brotha

FlankMeBabe :

He is cursed to be a villain, but only wants to live a peaceful life

Him :

You should keep ending your videos with passages from the books. I think your narration is really good.

Steven Mitchell :

Ik it’s been said before but I think the general audience is not ready for where the story’s going. If they have no concept of the books then they might be mad with how his story ends
