As someone who finally is deciding to get into Dune, it’s really weird realizing that “oh… everybody in all of fiction stole from this” even more than LOTR it feels like

"Game of thrones, in space, on drugs" is such a formidable pitch: it sounds so 60s yet Dune talks about such fundamentally human topics it manages to be timeless

38:30 small correction: Leto spots the worm first, there is a bounty on spotting worms that Leto therefore deserves. He gives that bouty to the workers.

When can we expect a video on Dune part 2? This video was so great. It provided so much insight to the movie without having to read the book! Thank you!!!

The name Harkonnen comes from a Finnish surname Härkönen which comes from the word härkä meaning bull. So in a way Paul is also fighting a bull

Alt Shift X releasing 86 minutes of analysis on Dune. Bless the Maker and His water.

Is there a second one like this explaining the second movie yet? This was really well done.

I'm praying Alt Shift X will make the companion video of Dune part 2 soon!

First of all, cheers to you for citing evidence via quotes for almost every claim you make. That must have been time consuming and annoying but boy does it add a lot to the video. Also, the visual aids were so incredibly helpful for a person who hasn’t read the books (like me). Without them, I would have gotten confused with all the names, plot lines, and locations. Amazing video, keep up the stellar work!!

Didn't realize how much deeper the Dune universe is than how the movie portrays. Incredible.

20 mins in and realized the explanation video is almost as long as the movie lol. Great breakdown! Needed all of this.

It's just been 20 mins of watching and I am so moved by the beautiful way in which you have discussed the entire learning that comes from this piece of art.... hats off to your work

Summarizing Dune in this format really reveals how insanely creative Frank Hebert was.

Its surreal that I've been subbed to you since 2015 from watching the Game of Thrones lore videos. Now in 2022, still following you for more lore videos on different media that I love. Thank you and keep up the amazing work as always!

Love to see dune getting this recognition and to see people talking about how dune is the predecessor and the inspiration for what we love about modern writing and film. I read it a couple years ago because my dad has been all over it since he was a kid. Love it yall!

Man, this story is so well told, vizualized and structured. Thank you so much for making it easier to get into the series :)

The film really needed a scene where they explained the importance of Mentats in a society where thinking machines are illegal, and reveal to Paul that he has what it takes to become a Mentant himself.

I feel like Leto and Jessica are one the deepest, most tragic love stories you could ever read. It's not about two people who sacrificed everything for their love, but rather of two people who sacrificed their love for the greater good, because they knew that in the grand scheme of things, their relationship was not important to anyone but them. They would never give up their duties just to be together, because they know that that is not what the other one would have wanted. I think this is a much deeper and much more selfless form of love, one that makes me shed a tear every time I read this book.

I can confidently say this is the first YouTube video over an hour that I’ve not only watched the entire way through but went back when I wasn’t confident in my understanding of this story and your explanation of it, truly a masterpiece of the internet
