I have no idea what this movie is about

I watched it a while ago, i never read the books. It was an incomprehensible mess. Theres a lot of politics and you have absolutely no idea what are the stakes and what do these groups want. I'm not a brainlet and I didn't understand anything. It was just extremeley boring

>I'm not a brainlet
Wrong.

Even the director disowned this crap, moron

classic mistake. Dune isn't about space magic, sci-fi and sand worms. It's all about the politics.

If you want to make a 3hours movie about politics you better make it interesting, not a fucking borefest where you don't care about anything and anybody

Only because of studio interference. If you weren't a brainlet you'd be able to see the movie behind the soulless corporate meddling.

Read the book

Bruh
You're retarded

>when confronted with something he cannot understand, the brainlet will lash out in anger.

David Lynch is a pleb. He filtered himself out.

>i dun get it, but that means everyone but me is dumb!
It's not even politically complex, spice is your gold/coal/oil/whatever invaluable resource, the houses are political dynasties that often engage in subterfuge and assassination and sometimes flat out war, the Harkonnen's (bad guy house) essentially ambush the Atreides (good guy house) on Arrakis (source of all spice) but the protag Paul Atreides escapes into the desert, makes friends with the desert people, leads them in a revolution and seizes the means of spice production
That's literally it

Dune = God emp > children >>>> messiah

Read the books, then watch the movie. You'll be able to suspend too much thought since you'll see where huge chunks were taken out and just enjoy the visuals.

Dude you obviously read the book that's whay you could follow this mess of a movie. But if you were ntelligent you would put yourself into the shoes of someone knowig nothing prior to the movie and you would realize it's incomprehensible. The studio was aware, that's why they adde a stupid cartoon in the intro, but Lynch fucked up anyway.

you are a brainlet too.

1) emperor wants to destroy house atredies for reasons
2) sets them up by giving them arrakis to manage
3) it's a setup because they can't say no and it opens them up to conflict with house harkonnen
4) the emperor secretly backs house harkonnen
5) paul becomes space jesus and fucks up all the best laid plans
6) everyone not fremen is BTFO

Watch the Spicediver Edit

Not him and haven't read the book and I could follow that much. Not saying the movie is good, but it certainly isn't "incomprehensible."

1) he wants to destroy the Atreides because Leto has become too popular in the parliament of the great houses and the Atreides have created a powerful military that could rival the emperor's legions
2) he gives them Arrakis as a fiefdom instead of Caladan, which was their previous fiefdom
3) They could've become a renegade house, but Leto was a noble idiot
5) Jessica fucked everything up by having a son instead of a daughter, who would be married to Feyd Rautha and end the Atreides-Harkonnen feud
6) Fremen got btfo in the pointless space jihad that ensued for the following 12 years

okay but you guys realize the first poster was intentionally simplifying the plot of the movie for op without drawing on the books?

is me. All of this is in the movie and is spelled out pretty clearly.

it is? damn been a while since i've seen it. i've reread the book more recently
