1) German rave band Dune.
2) Finnish demoscene musician, now known as Brothomstates.
3) Alias for drum & bass DJ and artist Ray Keith.
4) An Indiana, U.S. based musician recording a single album.
5) An Australian power/progressive metal band.
6) Danish indie rock band Dúné
7) French band active in the 70s
8) Laurent Garnier, Pascal F.E.O.S.
9) Stoner Rock band from Ohio, USA
10) Scottish Progressive Sludge/Stoner metal group from Edinburgh.

1) The German rave band Dune. The band was founded in 1995 by Oliver Froning and Jens Oettrich, who are both big fans of the novels by Frank Herbert - hence the name Dune. Their first single "Hardcore Vibes" featured the voice of Oliver's then 11-year-old cousin Janine. Their second single "Are you ready to fly?" sounded quite different and already featured the typical Dune-style with high-pitched vocals and a catchy melody.

At the end of 1996 the band released the album "Forever" with a lot of tracks in a classical style - all tracks where performed together with the London Session Orchestra (see Dune & the London Session Orchestra). Lead singer Verena von Strenge left Dune after the release of "Forever" to start a solo career. Dune came back in April 1998 with a new lead singer (Vanessa Hörster). The single "Keep the Secret" was only a medium success and its successor "Electric Heaven" flopped completely.

In late 1999 Verena von Strenge came back as lead singer after her solo career was not as successful as she wanted it to be. The single "Dark Side of the Moon" was released and the album "Reunion" was produced and ready for release in May 2000. However the album was never released due to a court order that stopped the single "Heaven".

The latest single released was "Rainbow To The Stars 2003", a rework of their 1996 classic. It was released on 23 June 2003.

2) A Finnish demoscene tracker musician who adopted the more unique name Brothomstates in the latter half of the 1990s and was later signed to Warp Records.

3) Dune was also an Alias used by Drum & Bass Dj/Artist Ray Keith in the early 1990s.

4) An Indiana-based musician who recorded an album called "Road of Life" in 2000.

5) An Australian power/progressive metal band that is now disbanded. The band only recorded a demo called The Eleventh Hour.

8)Duo made of Laurent Garnier and Pascal F.E.O.S. (Pascal Dardoufas). Released one EP: The Alliance EP: Trance, Ambient style electronic.

9) Four friends from Athens, Ohio, finally came together to form DUNE in 2011. Influenced by their favorite acts (Sabbath, Kyuss, QOTSA, Sword, Truckfighters), DUNE's brand of stoner metal has various undertones--everything from soul to thrash. You can find them on Bandcamp.

10) The progressive sludge/stoner metal Dune formed in recent years in Edinburgh, Scotland. They recently released their first EP entitled 'Progenitor'. You can find them on bandcamp here:

Dune Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Z bokoju na kanape, telewizor w ruch
Natasza smierc zniszczenie
Jestem obojetny, a obchodzi minr to

Z kanapy do bbiura, computer
Nic mine nie obchodzi
Cow twoich oczach zobaczyc moge

Nic mnie nie obchodzi, co ci po glowie chodzi
A obchodzi mnie co mowisz, i jak to mowisz

Speed. Amazing speed now
I´ll never see it coming
Never see it coming to me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dúné's song "No Speed" convey a sense of detachment and indifference towards the world and personal relationships. The singer describes being in a state of apathy, sitting on the couch with the TV on, while death and destruction pass by without affecting them. The lyrics imply a disconnect from emotions and a lack of interest in the events happening around them.

The second verse continues with this theme of indifference, as the singer moves from the couch to the office and mentions the computer. They express no concern about what goes on in someone's eyes or mind, but rather focus on the way they speak and express themselves. This suggests a certain superficiality in their interactions, where the words and the manner of speaking hold more importance than genuine emotions or connection.

The chorus, which repeats several times throughout the song, emphasizes speed and the inability to anticipate or comprehend its impact. The singer confesses that they never see it coming, whether it refers to action, tension, or anything beyond the surface level. There is a longing for something more, a desire for action and excitement, but it remains unfulfilled. The final lines of the song repeat the refrain of needing to "be" to save themselves from hours, implying that they seek some form of escape or salvation from their detached state.

Overall, the lyrics of "No Speed" paint a picture of detachment, indifference, and a longing for something more, while also highlighting the superficiality of interactions and the inability to fully engage with the world.

It's worth noting that there are no confirmed "aliens" in Dune, at least not humanoid ones. Every character and faction we meet is a branch of human, some of which are barely recognizable as such, particularly the Guild Navigators or even this versions depiction of the Harkonnens. It's very much a story about the infinite human potential for good and evil as well as the paradoxes of human nature.

The original novel is one of my favorite books. I reread it every 5 years or so. In the movie they say that the year is 10,191. What they do not tell you is that they are not using the our calendar. Their calendar starts with a war against thinking machines. It's similar to the Terminator but the battle's were fought on hundreds of planets. Earth was destroyed during that conflict.

It is important to note that humans didn’t destroy computers so they could evolve, humanity was enslaved by AI and treated like animals by computers and androids (along with group of people who had transferred their consciousness into machines named “titans”.) This sparked the Butlerian jihad where humans overthrew their AI overlords.

The jemis vision was not just symbolic. Paul is metally aging rapidly though hos transition, because he actually lives those timelines. He lives a full timeline with Jemis as a mentor and friend, and so it is heartbreakingly tragic that he has to kill someone who he sees as a friend, but that friendship cannot be reciprocated in the reality he walks. It's how he just knows things, because he lived them in his mind

@dan7291able

I agree, one of the more special things about the film to me, was this Jamis person being so friendly and kind and mentor to Paul in his visions, and then its the end of the movie and the 1 fremen that hates them IS Jamis and Paul has to kill him .. there was something so interesting about the conflicting versions of Jamis, but deep down, you kind of understand whats happening

Re: Shields and swords: It's also really dangerous to shoot at a ship or personal shield with lasers or charged particle beams. One of three things will happen: the shield absorbs it and you wasted a shot (best case scenario), the shield partially absorbs it and 'burps' out a coronal discharge of energy back in the direction of the beam, becoming a temporary flamethrower pointed right back at you (not the worst case, but it ain't good), or the beam overloads the shield and it explodes, turning your target into a momentary mini-nuke (worst case). There's a small chance whatever was inside the shield will survive the overload. There is very little chance that you were close enough to shoot them and far enough away to not get killed in the blast.

So, basically, you could try to overload the shields and blow up the ships (and that possibility is why nuclear bombs are not permitted in inter-House warfare upon pain of death, by the Emperor's decree -- never mind that if you use them on Dune, you could disrupt or contaminate Spice production, and then everyone would gang up on you if they even suspected you were planning it). But it turns the battlefield into an unpredictable minefield where you and your opponents could get caught up in a chain reaction if you start messing around, so swords and knives are considered the safest and most precise means to go after your opponents.

@@zachpullara5048 You could, I suppose, but I would imagine there are electronic counter-measures for those. They're effective as little sneaky assassination tools, but you could probably protect against them if you knew they were likely to be deployed in a swarm. Also, due to the ban on thinking machines, they aren't tiny drones. Each one is operated by a human pilot, so you'd need a horde of people to remotely pilot the horde of drones -- so why not just deploy the horde of people?

In God-Emperor of Dune, Leito II foresaw that he had prevented a possible future where the Ixians (a technologically oriented culture on the planet Ix who tended to defy the Imperial ban on thinking machines and other technologies whenever they thought they could get away with it) developed a type of self-replicating, self-piloting hunter-seeker that replicated out of control and eventually consumed all life in the known universe for raw material to make more hunter-seekers.

You misunderstood the Gom Jabbar, it's not a test for Bene Gesserit potential. In the book it's a test to see if you can rise above your animal instincts to avoid pain, with the knowledge that a single touch from the needle at your neck will kill you. The idea is if you recoil from the pain you touch the needle and die, therefore preserving the evolutionary trajectory the Bene Gesserit have in place. In all of Frank Herbert's books Paul is never 'confirmed' to be the "chosen one", it's actually implied to be his son Leto II.

Probably for the best that you glossed over the whole prequel novels, the backstory of why thinking machines are forbidden. Some people really HATE those books.

Ryan's / Pavel's inaccuracies are around the 11:00 mark or so. Paul isn't "the one", at least not yet, during the course of the first movie. He's potentially "the one", just as there have been other potential boys/men who could have been "the one", but were determined not to be. Two that were named are Feyd Rautha and Count Hasimir Fenring (the latter of whom was not adapted for the movie). The most recent iteration of the Bene Gesserit's plan is that Feyd Rautha and Lady Jessica's daughter were to have been arranged for marriage, and THEIR son would be the Kwisatz Haderach. But Jessica short-circuited that plan by having a son instead.

The test was not to show that he is "the one", but to show that he is "human", able to control his impulses more than an animal.

Everything else is basically right, I think.

And he’s not even the only “one”. As the Reverend Mother alludes to, the BG have other plans, other breeding programs, other contingencies. Lady Jessica’s path was the one closest to bearing fruit, but the BG never limit themselves to one path.
And men can train in the ways of the BG, but they can never get past what you could call the acolyte level. Only women can transform the water of life and become Reverend Mothers, gaining access to past lives, history and knowledge of the BG. When men try, they die.
Effectively, a spice overdose gives women access to the past. A different kind of spice overdose gives men access to the future (thus all guild navigators are/were men). The Kwisatz Haderach is someone at the fulcrum between the two, able to access both.

I managed to get to go to an early preview screening of it at my local IMAX on Sunday, and I was genuinely blown away. I liked the first one well enough, but loved the 2nd.

I am a cranky middle aged guy who generally dislikes theaters, but If you live anywhere near an IMAX theater showing it, it is very much worth the trip. Movie was excellent and deserves to be seen on a huge screen.

One thing thats kind of breezed over in this recap is just how much paul outskills jamis in their duel. Everyone expect paul to get destroyed or have a hard fight and within the first exchange hes screaming at jamis yo concede and you can see the shock on jamis's face as his pride forces him to start daring paul to kill him..crazy scene

I was bummed they didn't talk about why Paul was "playing" with Jamis. In the book it is explained that Paul had never fought an unshielded enemy before, so he was slowing his strikes to penetrate his enemy's non existent shield. He was literally re-learning how to fight and overcome all of his lifetime of training in real time, which made it look like he was slowing down his kill strikes.

Kinda glossed over why they destroyed the machines. It was because the AI took over and tried to destroy all humans. So they were stuck in a decades long universe spanning war. And when the humans finally won, they destroyed all thinking machines. And outlawed their use.
It is a very complicated story. And honestly fell off for me after book 3 or 4 i think. The prequel books were good though. And tell how the atreides harkonnen fued began. 10,000 years before. As well as the beginnings of Duncan Idaho's bloodline.
If they ever get to the God Emperor of Dune, I'm pretty sure audiences are gonna be like WTF is going on.😂

@Haldurson

8w↑4

In the novel "Dune", Duke Leto is described as having dark olive skin, and that the Atreidies are darker in skin tone than the Fremen. I've heard some rather simplistic interpretations of the Dune Saga as a 'what savior' story. I don't want to give spoilers, but Paul is not exactly the savior of the Fremen. Plus, remember that the Fremen are a technological people hindered by their environment. Their superstitions were planted by the Bene Geserit to make them easier to exploit. And Paul exploits the hell out of them, making him less of a savior, and more of an antihero. And Paul IS NOT 'the one'. In the David Lynch, version, he most definitely is. But Denis Villeneuve is a lot more faithful to the spirit of the novels, and so he knows that Paul is NOT the Fremen's savior. Frank Herbert wanted Dune to be a cautionary tale, that one should beware of Messiahs.

Dune is not "like" starwars Dune is not "like" game of thrones , dune came before them , by a lot. Dune was partly inspired by The Seven Pillars of Wisdom by TE Lawrence AKA Lawrence of Arabia.

@ethancash7078

Just because something came before doesn’t mean they aren’t similar lol

@jonniboye6399

I think the comparison is for casual watchers who didn't read the books - the Star Wars movies came before the Dune movies as did the GoT series. The assumption is most people who saw those two franchises will also be interested in the Dune movies, and it provides a quick and easy reference so viewers can understand the context.

What was said in the video is absolutely what someone might think watching Dune pt 1 if they had not read the books before but had seen Star Wars.

I understand your point that it's important to identify the source material, but for the sake of simply understanding it I think the video does a great job!
