“It sounds easy, but” No. That does not sound easy, but go on.
-
The fact that Denis Villeneuve called the worm an Uber makes me infinitely happy
-
I need a full director's cut, where he just sits and explains the whole movie to us like this. I could listen to an explanation of the whole film so happily.
-
I know this version of Chani compared to the book could've been a controversial decision but I really like that they turned her into a unique character and some sort of "the voice of reason" instead of her being just part of the entourage
-
Villeneuve is by far one of the most attentive, caring, passionate and wonderfully sensitive directors I’ve ever seen. Every movie he makes shows this.
-
12:31 “like he’s about to miss his Uber” love that Villeneuve can dish out humor so nonchalant, it’s reflective in the script where the humor elements don’t seem forced
-
Did he forget he was doing a YouTube gig and gave us a whole master class instead? 🤩😍
-
22:28 To know that despite directing these back to back masterpieces, despite being THIS precise and careful. Villeneuve still has to "make peace" with his adaptations, really highlights his reverance of the source material. He's dedicated to capturing the imagination and it truly shows. A true legend
-
YES, really hope they release some kind of director commentary on Blu Ray. I could watch entire movie with him discussing.
-
As I am writing this, Dune Part two is passing $500.000.000 at the global box office. Congratulations Denis, keep making great films. 👍👍
-
And this ladies and gentlemen, is the reason, why he does this kind of stuff in an absolutely outstanding fashion where 99% of other directors would have failed. When one sequence, that maybe takes 10-15 minutes in total, has more weight, meaning and cinematography than other movies in their entirety.
-
This guy understands immersion like no one else. To take something so fantastical and make it so believable is an achievement.
-
The level of calculation and meticulous planning that went into this scene just makes me appreciate this film even more than I already did.
-
I can think of no better person to direct these movies. Dune Messiah is about to give us our own LOTR level movie trilogy
-
Even tough he created a masterpiece, his modesty and his compliments to his crew and the actors is so lovely.
-
"I knew that if this scene was a success, I would have a movie" such a great quote, so indicative of the passion, care and tremendous attention to detail Villeneuve has poured into this project to make it into such an incredible experience
-
i can watch him go through each and every frame of the whole movie for hours...
-
Things I LOVED about the movie 1. Austin Butler was phenomenal. 2. The scale of the movie is just beyond. 3. Loved Timothee in the last act. 4. Stilgar is so fun in the movie. 5. Zendaya’s expressive eyes 6. Obviously the incredible score
-
This scene is insane, in the cinema you can feel like you're getting drowned in sand, and the shaking and bumping of the stunman on top of the platform makes it so real. At the end, when the camera pans and you see the fremen rising their fist to that awesome HZ track, you get chills and then you get that worrisome look on Chani, that's when you realize there's no turning back. Paul has ascended.
-
The way he praises every single person that worked with him when he mentions them is pretty wholesome
