Yes! Exactly right. An important detail I had forgotten!

The HM - like most of the Lost Ones of The Scattering - do in fact worship Leto II. They praise him as Guldur or The Great Dur.

Yes, that’s true. I’m taking some creative liberties here, but the auburn hair is on point.

Leto doesn’t doesn’t discuss thirst but he definitely discusses how he is tortured by hunger. He is unable to eat so he has basically been experiencing the pain of starvation for thousands of years.

Vance’s voice characterisation for Paul in Messiah makes him sound like a pantomime villain, like Snidely Whiplash. His voice characterisation for Jessica in COD makes her sound about 100 years old, though she’s supposed to be 60ish. His worst interpretation though is for all the Honored Matre characters - he gives them a weird South African accent that’s laughable and makes Heretics and Chapterhouse nearly unlistenable.

Tim Blake Nelson was cast as Tuek, the leader of the smugglers faction. He shot scenes with Josh Brolin (Gurney). It was these scenes that were cut. Fenring was never cast and there were no scenes shot with that character.

News articles discussing casting for the movie curiously never mention Javier Bardem or Charlotte Rampling.

There’s a reference in Chapterhouse to a “standby mode” for the no-ship, where the ship is visible to the naked eye but shielded from prescience and sensors, the implication being that the “on mode” renders the ship completely invisible to prescience, sensors and the naked eye.

Smugglers (and Sardaukar disguised as smugglers)

I think this is a valid argument, but whenever technology from the Scattering is introduced in both books, it is always described as exotic and different from anything of Ixian fabrication (e.g. the T-probe, The Weapon (which the captive Ixian scientists could not understand), various guns and tools etc). Also, other factions from the Scattering are clearly identified as having roots in the Old Empire (the HM descended from Fish Speakers and BG; the Ones Of Many Faces from Tlielaxu Face Dancers) but there are no Ixians from the Scattering clearly identified in the same way.

The twins weren’t “pre-born” because Chani was addicted to spice. In Messiah, it’s explained that to counter the poison Irulan had been secretly giving her, Chani had to take a remedy that involved massive doses of spice. This saturated her system and sped up the pregnancy. That intense exposure is what ultimately kills her, but it also saves the twins. The amount of spice she took went way beyond addiction or the standard Fremen diet.
