helpmeohgod:
For the past 1 month i paid for Gotv subscription i have not sat down to enjoy it without one hitch or the other.Sometimes no signal for days and sometimes just few channels to watch after series of stressful scans
Calls put through to Gotv 3 weeks ago confirmed that their engineers were at work by their customers centre.

Bye bye Gotv for now.

Please can you dash me the GoTV?

Born2Freak:
How can someone rate army of theives 7/10 or 9/10?

A dumb movie that should have been a television movie produced on a low budget channel


Nonsense.

Agreed.
But then we are all different, lol.

[quote author=blingxx post=107439960][/quote]The Bene Gesserit believe Paul could be the one, but they feel because he came to soon they might not be able to control. And since he wasn't their desired Kwisatz Haderach they don't care if he perishes or not.

I don't get what you mean by 'what is the way of the desert'. But just like some people live in deserts, the desert is the home of the Fremen.

Paul true calling is that he has the potential of being the Kwisatz Haderach.

I feel he knew House Atreides will fall but he can't do anything about.

7/10

Diplomacy at its finest.

I enjoyed this movie too

xorojinxx:
In Dune, after the emperor was poisoned and his servants, who were wearing protective gears came to carry him for treatment, they (his servants) turned back and looked at the ceiling.

It was at the 1hr:37min:40secs time.

Who knows what they were staring at?

It wasn't the Emperor that was poisoned. The Emperor is Shaddam IV of House Currino. They never showed the Emperor in Dune: Part 1.

They were looking at the Baron (Vladimir Harkkonen).
The Baron survived the poison and was bind to the ceiling because he can float.

Gmajor:
Duke Atreides bought Lady Jessica.
Duke Atreides has never been married before mainly because he wants to keep the possibility open that he could marry into another Nobel house as a political strategy.
The Gom jabbar test is administered to everyone with a Bene Geserrit training.
The lady Jessica also underwent the test.

Thanks for pointing these out.

But is Alia a trained Bene Gesserit?

DieRich5:
sound nice here than the movie and the story of the houses look like the GOT too
I remember Lady Jessica gets pregnant again in the movie, weti she born
this is what I'm talking about, the movie didn't added this info in the movie, una way don read am knows beta than us way never do anyone

Nawa for u oooo, u write all dis just to explain the main things the movie fvck up to add u try

I feel the movie should have been a series.
Maybe they opt against it because of budget I don't know.

But Dune have a mini series that was done in I think 2000-2001, I am planning to download it soon.

I also plan to download the first adaptation of Dune into a movie release in 1984 to get a better understanding of dune.

J2381:
Jeez bro. In explaining you spoiled Dune 2 and 3. Not to worry, by the time it comes out I'm sure the thread would have progressed past this page.

Sorry chief, just didn't like how he was trying to berate one of the best films I have watched in recent times.
And to think if not because of the hype on this thread before its release, I won't even know about a film called Dune.

DieRich5:
the movie was incredibly slow and boring, I knew wat Dem meant he's the one ND in .
Matrix part one I think Dem also told us he role too in part 1, and I don watch alot of film Dem use dat word nd the picture was clear even a novice will know it

Alot of people no watch the first dune ND no even read about it........... ok now 4get about Paul Atriedes mata ND still alot is not explained in 2hrs.
1)Why are the Harkkunen evil?
2)The Mother and Grandmother have special powers, why?
3)Paul is the one, yes anybody can guess he's role but why him?
Josh ND Jason both of Dem did nothing in the movie ND both re the main fighter for the Atreades
Zandaya na dis wan pain me pass, she the reason why I'm interested in dune OK I only see her in the same repeated visions.
action and character emotions 3/10

Who never read the book or watch the old one, would have no idea what was going on ND I'm one of Dem

Duke Atreides knew the Emperor plan to destroy him by giving him Arrakis, but its a call he can't refuse. And there is a lot of money to be made on Arrakis by mining spice.
So having an insight into the Emperor's doom plan for him, he also had a strategy in mind and some of his advisors know about it, which is to find a way to bring the Fremen to his side as allies. Because he believe with his House army and Fremen army they can defeat any incoming war from either House Harkkonen or the Emperor.
That's why he sent Jason Mamoa to the Fremen to learn their ways and bring them to their side. But the Fremen need a lot of convincing because of how House Harkkonen handled them.

Boss, Duke is smart o.

But his plans didn't come to fruition because his enemies moved in on him too quickly.

They know how tactical and smart Duke is, that was why House Harkkonen strikes him from within by using his House doctor.
House Atreides doctor too is a long story on its own.

Josh Brolin (Gurney) escaped the invasion to fight another day, just like Ser Barristan Selmy in GoT.

Dune setting is like a fight for throne with House scheming and all.

Wow, it's been long I typed so much.
I hope I made sense.
PS: I didn't read any Dune novels.

I think I can answer No. 1 and 3

1) The Harkkonen are not evil, even though they rule Arrakis with a very strict and often cruel way.
They preside over Arrakis with order from the Emperor. The Emperor is like the overall ruler in the universe, and anybody from a great house can become an Emperor, but House Currino have been ruling as Emperor for years.
Now, Duke Atreides is becoming successful and the Emperor fear that Duke's success and developed influence may hinder him in decision making. Heck with Duke's influence in the Laadsrad (like a senate of great houses), he could overthrow the Emperor.
So, the Emperor's solution to stopping the rise of Duke was planned.
House Atreides and House Harkkonen have a long standing hatred for each other. So the Emperor did as if he collected dune from House Harkkonen to give House Atreides, but it was an attempt to destroy House Atreides, in that if House Harkkonen was to wage war against House Atreides it will be seen as a result of their past hatred for each other.
And so it will not seem as if its the Emperor that wants to personally destroy Duke because if the Laadsrad find out the Emperor did such, they can impeach him.


3) You see, the Bene Gesserit are magical and powerful, and they are also part of government.
Dune is set like 10,000 years after the current year we are in, computers are wiped out. So human beings with special powers are the ones doing the work of computers, and each are trained by different organisations and assigned to great houses. E.g Mentat (Thufir Hawat, he is like the computer brain of House Atreides) ordinary human being cannot do his work.
Now, spice is a substance that heightens the abilities of these special people.
Now, understand that Paul Atreides is like 14-15 years old in the setting of this movie.

The parts that one cannot learn in the movie is that;
*The mother Bene Gesserit is the mother of Lady Jessica (Paul's mother)

*Vladimir Harkkonen is the father of Lady Jessica.

The Bene Gesserit believes they have solution to their universe problems, so they started a breeding exercise to bring forth to the world a MESSIAH.
In the course of this breeding arrangement, the Mother Bene Gesserit went to Vladimir Harkkonen to sleep with him but the child had deformity and it was killed. She later went to Wladimir Harkkonen to mate again, but he was under alcoholic influence I think, so he raped Mother Bene Gesserit and she placed a curse on him, which made him so obese that he had to implant endoskeleton tech to be able to move and float.
Now the child as a result of the rape is Lady Jessica.

Obviously Duke Atreides has a wife before, but because of their breeding program the Bene Gesserit must have made Lady Jessica seduced Duke to get entangled with him. In line with this, Lady Jessica was to give birth to a daughter whom when old enough will be married to another great house male child to continue breeding till they get that 'ONE' (Kwisatz Haderach).
So assuming Lady Jessica gets pregnant, once she notice it's a boy she will have to terminate it.
But Lady Jessica first child was a boy (Paul), so she decided to keep it. And she also had that personal believe that the Kwisatz Haderach was Paul reason she didn't terminate Paul.
But the Bene Gesserit also saw signs that Paul had the qualities of being 'the One' but because they had not reached their full planned breeding, they believe the arrival of Paul as the ONE was too early and might cause problems for them.
Reason why the Mother tested Paul with the Gom Jabber, assuming Paul could not withstand that unimaginable pain, he would have been killed right there.

DieRich5:
Dem no try for the movie jor, I'm not even going rewatch it again self na part 2 b the main thing

Nawa o.
I don't re-watch movies, but I have watched Dune 3 times now.
And I also go online to read Dune wiki to understand the characters more like GoT wiki.

Achilles100:
She was the hacker right? I knew she looked familiar, I couldn't just place her.

Yes, she was the hacker.

Queenpins (2021) 6.5/10


It's all about the coupons. From coupons to Dinero.
Bebe Rexha was awful in her parts.

The Guilty (2021) 5/10

This movie is an ad nauseam, but I had to finish it because of Jake Gyllenhaal.

OneKinGuy:
I need recommendations on movies to watch. I will like indie movies or something lowkey, tired of the typical good guy bad guy stuffs or superheros stuff, I need something that tells good wholesome stories. Any recommendations will be appreciated.

The Courier

Its a spy movie featuring Benedict Cumberbatch

Some of the problems we face in Nigeria today is because some of the Nigerians that went early to foreign countries felt intimidated and developed low self-esteem and brought these strange foreign ideas home to the gullible uneducated ones.

The Trip (2021)

Norwegian movie.
I downloaded this movie because of Naomi Repace and I wasn't disappointed.
Lots of slashing, blood and gore tho.

They put her picture for the award too.

3.5/5

It's out?

Iceyjayz:
Y'all is Dune a good movie to watch? I don't want to waste my data on mediocre.

What do you mean?

Because of some few negative reviews?
Dune is the combination of GoT, Star wars, Lord of the Rings and many adventures put together.
Why would you want to skip it?

Herbsworks:
During my Simping Days:

This incident made me stop chasing women and spending on them cos it made me realize that if a woman doesn’t want you all your efforts, gifts, money towards her will be taken for granted.

Some years ago I had a crush on a coursemate of mine after we had graduated. Noticed she started drawing closer to me but I wasn’t redpilled armed to know how to manage the situation so I simped. She was into modeling at that time so I took it upon myself to become her manager. I hooked her up with few modeling gigs even tho she wasn’t paid I sometimes footed her bills to attend the events. I managed her to an extent that her pictures was on some Nigerian newspapers. I did all these cos I thought doing them will buy her heart and make her love me

We became so close that we could chat and call from morning till night without being bored. She showed signs of green light but I was so foolish to think being nice to a woman will make her reciprocate my feelings towards her.

While I was doing all these I was struggling financially. I took the bull by the horn and asked her out which she rejected :- when I asked her her reason for rejecting me she said she needed someone that is a hustler and someone that can take care of her luxury desire (meaning someone that is financially capable).

As a simp I thought maybe I could stay as a friend maybe one day she would change her mind. But she never did cos I kept asking her every year for 4 years and she kept giving me the same answer. So I got angry and blocked her on all platforms. A friend of mine asked her why she rejected me cos he knows her cos we’re all course mates. Her response was that it came as a shock to her cos she has taken me as a friend and brother

Fast forward to few years later I got a job in one of the telecom companies and I noticed she started drawing closer to me. What gave me the mind to cut all ties with her then was when she posted a guy on dreadlocks and tattoos on her WhatsApp status with the writeup “MCW my padi, the only one that understands me” Hahaha. So while I was doing church boy and a good guy, she wanted a badboy with dreads and tattoos. I wasn’t surprised cos her ex was a yahoo boy in the south.

But my question was why has she started finding me attractive now that she feels I have a good job?? She was 24 then and she’s 28years now and time is no longer on her side. Now she wants to use me as her retirement plan after whoring around and giving her best years to “bad boys”. She is currently dating a guy that I’m too sure she’s the one that choose him which confirms the statement that men should allow women chose them and not the other way round. It’s really true that alpha bleeps and beta bucks.

Now I’m the one doing shakara for her. And I have noticed that whenever I reply her messages it’s as if she has found salvation ; she now calls me fine boy and Abuja big boy

I am going to share more, and how I changed from being a good boy to a redpiller after reading Ubunja posts and my sexcapade as an Abuja bachelor using he redpill

I have started following you

MeMiTi:
LITTLE SPOILER



If you read the book you will understand.
The shield on their body prevents any fast moving projectile from penetrating their body. But something slower like a sword would penetrate.
Even a sword moving at high speed won't penetrate

Oh, thanks for this.
It's cause of their body shields.

Nigeria could have been a paradise.

Then petroleum was discovered before the masters left.

And the masters refused to leave us alone.

Funny how there are guns all around but the armies in Dune choose to fight with swords.

Interesting movie nonetheless

I just love that entrance of house Atreides when they touched down on arakis with Gurney (Josh Brolin) leading the line.

Never seen any material from this Chapelle guy, I might need to check him out.

Check his earlier works before his Netflix specials.

Martinez39s:
Exactly! For those that don't know much about the topic of śhit tests (a vast topic on its own), my advice to them is that they just adhere to the following:

(1) Make everything about you, either your way or the highway.

(2) Set good, strong and strict boundaries and standard. Never hesitate to enforce these boundaries.

(3) Learn to master your sexual urges and never let them colour your judgement, make you compromise your standard/boundaries or let things slide.

(4) Don't pedestalise a woman or simp for her for any reason. It doesn't matter if she is your wife who has given you children. No woman, even your wife, finds simping attractive and it doesn't matter why you simped; simping is simping to a woman.

(5) Be stoic. Stop being an emotional man. Stop expressing strong emotions, or any emotions, to her or in her presence. Don't allow her or any human evoke an emotional response from you. Be logical at all times to the best of your ability. In fact, make this your lifestyle, not because of women, but for your own good in life. She seeing you being emotional (eg. Crying. The reason for crying doesn't matter) is one of the quickest ways to lose your respect forever in her eyes. It doesn't make sense, but it is true. Don't be soft.

(6) Don't be afraid to offend or lose her. Never be afraid to offend or lose her. Also remember that you have to be the man "wey no send her."

(7) from (6), never be afraid to walk away. Walking away is the major power and leverage of a man when dealing with women. Never put yourself in a physical, financial, or emotional situation where you are hesitant or incapable of walking away.

These are common sense for red pill men, but if these can be heeded, men will pass a lot of śhit tests without knowing. Nevertheless, the issue of śhit test is still important to know and discuss because there are śhit tests that are counter-intuitive and seem innocuous, hence many will fail them and one failure can damage a lot. It's a pity that I rarely have time these days to make huge contributions and expound upon issues like before.

Do women do the shit test on purpose or its just a nature or unconscious habit?
Like you know it nature for men to provide.

With all my stress, yet I can't find my name on the list.

CaveAdullam:
DAY 283, REDPILL 2021

You don't yet exist because her desire is someone else and she has an orbits of simps around her. When all these fades away, then you'll surely be noticed. But before then, make sure you've veered off. Never allow yourself become a second chance!

Authority: don't be stupid!

I keep ruminating about this.
Sound advice
