Watch Party: Children of Dune

Here's a transcript of the nonsense we were discussing while watching Episode 1 of Children of Dune. It was a lot of fun. We'll be doing it all again in 2 weeks for the next episode!

Enjoy!

Yeah, these are the events of Messiah, then Children afterward So you're watching Dune Part Three, essentially

Somewhat nun-like robes on the attendants with Alia

There are always old folks grouching about how the young people behave

paul makes the mistake of reading the comment section

I'd be freaking out too if my unborn child was harassing me through time and space already

'dad can i have a grilled cheese' 'dad' … 'dAD'

Omg is this a corrino

Yes

I can tell, they don't fall far from the tree do they

I love Wencicia's team rocket villain vibe. (1) very villain (2) not in a million years gonna get that pikachu

'whatever the need, we have the breed' i wonder who came up with that slogan

I'll stop looking at it, see if that helps

oh no i was pronouncing it ghoula gowla

I def prefer "cha-knee" over "chain-ee"

It's gif not jif!

Frank Herbert himself had some interesting ideas about how to proncounce the words and names he used.

WOAH LOOKAT THAT HAT

Jawbone hat

Ribbed for muad'dib

Makes a convenient backscratcher too

Son, put your shirt on, seriously

Can't rn future son wants a caprisun

Imagine trying to manage all these goobers AND Alia too

Is this a Corrino I see before me? Its handle t'ward my hand?

You know irulan is scrawling down scathing things

'aliaa sucksss'

Alia's blog is peak bitchy Irulan hate-reads Alia's blog posts

In the book, Irulan actually makes the cuckolding threat right to Paul himself. It's an interesting exchange.

'cuckhold him all you like; this LINE

Don't mind me, just sweeping up the shattered Bechdel test …

that child is like 6 years old, what do you mean its his turn

TO BATTLE CHILD

wendy !!! wendy what about parental love!!!

Caw caw motherfucker

the caws add to the dramatics

And there's someone with his shirt off already Look on the bright side, he could be a child in House of the Dragon

Ghoul - Ghola Golem - Ghola

I always though GO-la Yeah, he's a fuckin' Go-la, mate

man mad that ruler of the universe does not come around for tea anymore

Yeah what gives He used to write me poems and stuff Ghosted by the Emperor

Get darted, buddy

Music player: I didn't see shit

above her paygrade when you ban your grandma from your planet

I liked how in the book they go into how Scytale has an ethic as an assassin where he always gives his target a chance to escape & genuinely feels bad in a compartmentalized way

MY HOUSE, MY RULES NOW GRANMA

Sassy-ass seating pose Chill out Paul

He's a thing to look at

Definitely kind of a mermaid look with the legs bonded together

he lookslike the neomodians (not spelling that right) from star wars and paul looks like neil patrick harris

Hayt from the book had metallic eyes, too, pretty cool

"He's also trained as a sex toy, sire"

'cool eyes' is suuuch a fun element to a story and we're 0/2 so far with implementation

irulan is slayinggg

I love her dramatic cage Dangit the secret language will stay secret

Oh its cool to see the training things in action. I imagined them different from the books description

Oh theres the naked

Wha— is that his sister or chain

That's his sister.

oh well that's awkward

Frank would be pleased

i like how they're keeping with the same music throughout the entire thing

oh they're speeding through this book

Ah yes, the spitting disease, of course The disease that makes you spit

Paul: pls see a doctor

are we not concerned by that wording

"empty me as your will"

Bijaz is to Dune Messiah as Mushroom is to Fire & Blood kinda

thomas the train engine crashes through a wall

"paul what are you doing in the road" "getting hit by a car like I had a vision I would? was I supposed to just not go in the road"

Irulan: I was here first

something chani would never say from denis version but book accurate right

Movie chani would be going in there SWINGING

yeah this version is very sweet

Lady I'm just playing with my balls, you came to talk to me

i feel speaking in italics

The vibes, Alia. I feel the vibes.

Alia displaying her red flags

"I can handle it-" cuts to spider curled on the floor

oh her silly hat is great

i adore her silly hats

Best silly hat

Imagine her bird flying into that accidentally Cute lil ship Is it from Naboo?

CALADAAAAN

Jessicaaa Jessica!!! jessica!!!

Let her vacation in peace away from her wretched children

so obviously green screen

The greenest of screens

they live in a cool screensaver

They live in a scene from that Encarta digital encyclopedia

oh but i love it, its so camp

Son being the original troll lmfaoo

Lemme get drunk on you instead

Glad I'm not the only one seeing that hahaha

ooh i like his black eyes

aww look at his lil mermaid outfit I bet they did that for the lols

He looks like a harpy

Fingerprint wall goes hard

It really does, I love that Smacking the glass LMFAO BAD FISH smack

i think i am in love with her

Book Edric did get bullied quite a bit, lol

He really did

plans within planss. i think it was said in the denis version too. is it repeated in the books a lot?

A couple times if I remember right

that's a neat sandworm

Lol the teeth

Imagine trying to get a tooth from that

somethin out of the thing

Worm dentists must get paid pretty well

couldntitjustdigdown

Now to their credit, those grapple things were actual props there

Didn't we learn anything from jurrassic park

Not for around 10 movies now

"dw I'll just go lie to her again about having eternity"

"Hey babe, about that eternity? Turns out the store is all out of it. Sold out completely." “People are panic-buying eternity."

what made his eyes go black? i mightve missed that

The 'stone burner' weapon

He won a small person and got blown up

The conspirators used an atomic-type weapon, but Paul was on the edge of it and his eyes were burned out.

Even though the conspirators knew exactly what house Paul was going to.

Oh that isn't terrifying

the warcrys hmm hmm hmm hmm

two bros in the same tank

five feet apart

Jar buddies!

hallucination: hmm hmm hmm hmm

Same tank, like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny Devito

getting into fremen music would be so neat

when paul first came in like "i stepped in a puddle" i was like: this is the dumbest thing you can say until I remembered arrakis

maybe a wandering kind of tune? like you could try to guess the next note but be wrong every time

Hahahaha guess which planet Semuta comes from

See that statement, "What do you see with those eyes" is a little less impactful when his eyes are just normal juicy eyeballs

Alia: dibs on the robodick

I do like how the blue eyes glow in response to spice (even if they're Wrong)

The eyes of Ibad

Paul is very zen considering Irulan was practically poisoning Chani to get rid of the baby

maybe the standards are different when you've killed 1004494949 trillion people

OH THEY KISS

Paul this ain't going to make things easier?

The dramaaaa

A much more modest kiss thank goodness Oh I forgot about this

that looks uncomfortable

why is he doing that with his hips

With his pants on no less

sounded like a fight

Walking the dude out into the street still full-mast

That shot looks pretty good! Her on the cliff looking out Not bad for 2000's

yeah and "i am a desert creature, I know when to hide"

I love that they include their lil chat from the books Love how everyone is telling duncan he's scared

why she sound like that

LMFAO gma still in her cage

we should use cages more on sandworm we don't use cages enough

Hm mm Increase cages, noted

Ones with just a table and a lil chair

oh they put his pants on!

lol dramatic face shots of him to her birth

that's nice of them

This music is not quite tonally there…

Scared they were gonna show us his nakedness then Thank god hes wearing pants now, which poor guard had to do that?

Is this really the music we want for murdering attempted assassins and painful childbirth?

omg no fishy boy

The guard "Hey man, I don't like this any more than you do"

oh a TOMB, that is rough buddy

He's getting Mummy'd (as in the movie with Brendan Frasier)

Paul remembers it from his ancestral memory

The black eyes and him tipping his head while shes having birth is a little much lmao. its like if feyd was watching someone give birth

That was Mohiam getting killed, btw

man there is a LOT HAPPENING

A rather ignominious end

bye chani

Those babies shot outta there like rockets, My Lord

Midwives waiting with catchers' mitts

never saw children in his entire life?

'i kissed your arch nemesis just earlier'

It was a hatekiss? Maybe? Man she looks great for someone dying of twinbirth No sweat stains, hair looks good

oh no. the script was just too dramatic for them. a disservice to good actors. lol

Neck'd!

he cant change clothes that fast… cowards not wanting him to be in a dress tbh

unless the clothes are flesh which is also a disturbing thought

Such a bummer

like sylveon's ribbons (nodding)

If I ever run Scytale, gender will be as fluid and changing as the desert They're super weird, facedancers In a cool way

I like Scytale

stop saying moodib

are we naming Log's cows again?

Using her voice to fuck with him dang

Leto II get your nipples outta here dude We're kinda busy

shirts went out of style , its not his fault

Oh no my…. hip? My weak spot? There's probably an artery in there

The funky connection between prescient and preborns is fun to play around with

'Nice shot, dad'

yeah a gigantic time loop

Time to bail on these kids SEE YA

Fuck dem kids

"Irulan will take good care of these kids, surely" “Also my extremely troubled sister"

“Alia will do a good job ruling, surely"

Nothing will go wrong

"Notorious philanderer Duncan will be a good partner for Alia" “Why not add my mom into the mix, yeah she's not got a ton of baggage on this planet"

Crushed by a giant penis

eyyyy

Death by Desert Dick?

not the triple d it was violent

The end scene was like a hurricane of everyone pouting and then dying
