isn’t it kinda ironic that in star wars, there’s a nod to poe being a spice runner, and in dune that leto wanted to be a pilot? kinda funny too, considering that a lot of star wars is inspired, if not copied straight from dune. i love both of the franchises though, and i love oscar isaac.

Now I see people saying that Paul Atreides is the character Daenerys should have been, or that Daenerys is just a straight-up future Alia Atreides. No ! Daenerys is just a hero ! That's all ! She's not meant to freak out ! I'm fed up with this bullshit that makes Daenerys a future villain, or a tragic heroine (like Paul is a tragic hero) destined to fall ! Learn to read damn it !

I was wondering how Denis would deal with the naked workout scene Alia has in the DUNE MESSIAH book and realised George Lucas has already crossed that bridge. He dialled down Frank Herbert's naked Alia to bikini clad Leia. And what a bikini! Designer Jacqueline West has one hell of a task making something just as iconic for Princess Alia. (But please comment if u think Denis should go for naked but shoot it in a PG 13 way, like Irene Adler in BBC SHERLOCK 🤔)

every so often someone is like george lucas made star wars great by copying the heros journey, no, george lucas made star wars great by copying dune
#i have my own issues with the monomyth and joseph campbells jungian ass whitewashing a bunch of very unique cultures myths to try and#universalize art which can never be universalized#and i think this nonsense was only ever given an air of legitimacy because of george lucas#but also.#sword based space battles?#desert planet?#giant worm?#religuous order?#he just pirated everything cool for dune#and made it less arabic#I say this as someone who loves star wars#I often think longingly of a universe where a dune series beat lucas to the punch#and dune existed at the cultural zeigist of the 70s.#but then i imagine a world where disney has the rights to dune#and maybe nevermind#but star wars could be so good if it were dune

In George Lucas' 1974 rough draft of Star Wars, Princess Leia is a spoiled, snobbish teenage redhead whose character arc involves coming to terms with the harsh realities of life...
...so she's basically Sansa Stark, in other words.
Even funnier: the 1974 draft has a couple of scenes where Lucas was very obviously influenced by DUNE, even down to the wording of the dialogue.
And in Game of Thrones, Sansa's brother and mother, Robb Stark and Lady Catelyn, who lead the initial rebellion against the Lannisters in King's Landing, are quite similar in their dynamics to Paul Atreides and his mother Lady Jessica...
(...though the fate of the Atreides rebellion against the Padishah Emperor is rather different than that of poor Robb and Catelyn.)

I grow more and more convinced that many do not want writers to create stories, they want writers to create encyclopaedias detail all the ins and outs of their fictional universes. They want something canonical they can use to plug up what they perceive to be logic holes, but are simply things that do not matter to the narrative. The Starks and Atreides have no extended family members because they are not needed for the story. Save that stuff for appendixes or companion books if the writer is interested (GRRM certainly is).

No, “Dune” didn’t inspire “ASOIAF” (and Daenerys isn’t like Paul)

Well, finally done with the next part - starting to get into the truelly weird facts and trivia - and madness that may start to affect not only me but the viewer too...
Yes, this is only part 1 of layer 5, because the point of an iceberg is that the real shit is under the water...
But fuck, I hate making long videos, and the next one will be even longer, yeez louis, well atleast after that it will be not as long, right?
Also I'm gonna start leaving links in the youtube comments, but will prolly forget this because I'm tired and its late lol, just wanted to finally put out the video and include a few expected surpirses...
