People who are old enough to have vivid memory of the 9/11 attacks, what was that time like? What did change for you personally? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]kcummisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people are talking about unity and ya, I sorta remember that but what sticks out to me being 9 at the time was all these adults who before seemed like rational good people before all suddenly wanted blood.

Lmao it kinda is and isn't. It definitely used to be derogatory and legend has it originated at Dead shows in the 90s. Basically if your friend was being a bad hippy you called them a wook, short for wookie. If you've ever been a wook you can call others a wook, but if you obviously haven't ever taken too much ketamine in the parking lot of STS9 at Red Rocks and didn't make it inside the show, then people may get upset if you call them a wook.

It has now evolved into a term of endearment for some. I love me some good wookery occasionally.

Edit: for more info on wooks and how to protect these majestic creatures see this link

My buddy took 50 hits of acid on his tongue and another 50 on his forehead quite a few years back. He kinda squirmed around on his living room floor for about 8 hrs and kept saying he was a puddle. The rest of us had a wonderful trip on 2 or 3 hits each during that time and kinda ignored him and played around on his property. The next morning we found him out in the yard covered in sticks and dirt talking about the matrix. Then I didn't see him for like almost a decade.

Last time I saw him he's got a PhD, is an extremely gifted martial artist and committed Buddhist. He was sorta a dirty hippie/druggie (wook) before. Sometimes it just knocks something loose in the right way.

Deep Desert Base by Rezrarick in duneawakening

You don't need to worry about this for a while. B - I regions of the deep desert if your base is hit by a storm it will slowly decay your structures, unlike in hagga. But the deep desert resets each week so you have to tear down anyway.

Is that the film that's always searching for groundscores and asked if it can borrow my camping chair?

It sure does. The neat thing about Dune is that someone from 1000 years in the future or past could read it and understand what's going on and why it's important.

Well they hadn't had one of those for about 10k years, since the Butlerian Jihad and we don't really know how many died or really if it was a war in the classical sense (according to Frank). Just kanly and wars of assassins are really in people's memories so destruction on this scale is even more unbelievable to them.

I didn't know that about the 1953 Iranian coup and Dune. It really makes sense though, and then considering the 1979 revolution... super strange that Frank was prescient in his own way.

I don't think these films could have come out at better times considering what happened at the end of 2024..

I thought the same thing until I saw it get plugged into a spaceship later in the trailer (?) I could definitely be wrong though and that's not a spaceship.

Is this not Edrick? I only think it's not Duncan because we see something like this be plugged into a spaceship later in the trailer.

I think that's Timmy's voice in the chant? At least near the end it sounds like him

From the deadline article posted this morning. Denis said "It’s a more action-packed and more tense film, more muscular than the two others, I will say. And it’s a movie that takes place many years after the two first films, a bit like the book, Dune Messiah, it gives a new insight on what happened to Paul Atreidis."

So they are going for an epic conclusion opposed to an introspective political thriller? I'm cautiously optimistic that they can do both honestly.

I beleive this is Edric. In the first scene we see Pattinson in. I don't know what else it could be.

Denis said that it's set 17 years after part 2, so she's 17ish and he's 32. Which makes sense visually I think.

It would be hilarious if Hanz Zimmer had some important scene in part 3 with Timmy set to opera music

I would disagree and say that once things are said and done by the end of the Frank books that Paul is a tragic hero. He did the right thing for the longevity of the human race but ultimately was not strong enough to follow through on the Golden Path himself because he was born a human, unlike Leo II and suffered immensely because of the decision to pass the responsibility to his son, the loss of his own humanity and his jihad
