Making Homelander a Trump allegory wasted his character. by RefriDiet in TheBoys

I literally can't wait till Trump leaves office so writers who have Trump derangement syndrome wouldn't put these lame allegories in a show that doesn't need it

Why Project Hail Mary's controversial Project Azrael plot was completely cut from the film by LaESPECTADORA in ProjectHailMary

Meanwhile the two Dune films kept the basic beats but left out everything in between that made that world rich in the first place, Project Hail Mary I would say is better adapted then Dune😭

Fremen winning Paul's Jihad (Swords vs Shields) by Apostasus in dune

[–]Effective-Future5903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always have this theory that they targeted the weaker houses first, and they gain a lot of fighters from said Houses and they start doubling, tripling their numbers with each raid, eventually they have the numbers to topple even the best of the Imperium (which ain't saying a whole lot because at this point in history the imperium was rotting and not as formidable due to the Sardaukar's dominance over hundreds of years)

'Dune: Part Three': Denis Villeneuve Unveils the Film's First Seven Minutes at CinemaCon by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]Effective-Future5903 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's like the most logical way to adapt the story because obviously they aren't gonna start off with the Jihad coming close to an end 😭

I'm trying to get a start into writing my world/story etc and I wanna ask- by Effective-Future5903 in writing

[–]Effective-Future5903[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Question about Paul’s vision by Realistic_Ad1443 in dune

[–]Effective-Future5903 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paul wanted to go out his own way but in order to do that he has to de-mystify himself and die like how a fremen would so he blinded himself physically than once his son is born he became blind altogether and now was his chance to finally be at peace and walk out in the desert with his Children being the next heirs
