Pathologic Arabic dub dialects imo!! (Since they have different accents in English)

#Seeing the dune part 2 american centric red carpet and as a devoted aficionado of the books and yk a moroccan person here are my 2 cents #Dune was one of the few Western works inspired by MENA culture that that felt genuine and respectful #But ofc despite the profound symbiosis with Middle Eastern and North African culture evident within the pages of the novels #the movie adaptation lack of substantive representation from these communities both in on-screen portrayals and within production roles was #very much disappointing in part 1 and i doubt there are any change now #While drawing inspiration from the Amazigh peoples of Algeria and Morocco #the film barely skims the surface of its MENA influences leaving substantial potential untapped #Herbert openly acknowledged the profound impact of Islam and MENA culture on his noveIs #from the metaphorical representation of Spice as oil #to the allegorical parallels drawn between the occupation of Arrakis and real-world MENA geopolitics #By marginalizing Arabs from the narrative fabric of Dune the essence of the story is being undermined particularly its anti-colonial core #the irony of this is kiIIing me because this was a direct resuIt of us impérialism on the middIe east #But the reality is that Dune is an American production tailored for an American audience so it makes sense for it to be what it is now #a big production running from its original essence #What adds to my disappointment is the fact that I liked Villeneuve's adaptation of Incendies and I had what you call foolish hope hfhg #Dune feIt Iike a squandered opportunity to authentically depict the cultural milieu that inspired it #Given the narrative's inherent anti-colonial themes #the omission of Arab and North African voices dilute its message if any of it is even left #without representation from Arabs and Amazigh people the cultural essence becomes another appropriated resource watered down to an aestheti #rather than serving as a critique of the destructive actions of colonialists seeking power and dominance #the narrative becomes susceptible to distortion and co-option by the very entities it was intended to condemn and hold accountable

Reading about the 1998 film titled The Siege starring Denzel Washington and Tony Shalhoub because it's the only work I know Shalhoub was in where he plays a character who shares his ethnicity (Lebanese-American). The dismissive comments the White director and the White screenwriter made towards the Arab American and Muslim communities criticizing the film want to make me punch drywall tho.

It's easy to make such comments when White people can do bad things and not have those bad apples be seen as representative of all White people, to not be the target of bigoted laws and hate crimes as a result of said bad people.

it's nice to be able to give something official views for once (we are lady parts is on channel4 whoopwhoop!)

#i watched farha and i need to remember there is joy there is art there is life these are what's being fought for #and also i know there's a palestinian musician amongst the wider arab women's voices in this season #but farha was a good film as testimony. i do recommend it
