This is the Middle East oil crisis. . .

After all, the film was 30 years ago, so I won't talk about special effects.
I have forgotten the details of the original work I read a long time ago. Looking out the movie, it suddenly dawned on me that this is prophesying or mapping the Middle East. . .

Spice=Petroleum
Freman=Arabic in the Middle East who are struggling for independence?
Dune=Middle East Desert
Navigator=Multinational oil giants

good dukes=Iron Curtain Western
Bad Barons=Iron Curtain Eastern (Lenovo Soviet troops sent troops to Afghanistan and quickly withdrew...)
Or vice versa,

Emperor=UN? ?

Paul's rise is like the awakening of Mohammed, the savior who traveled through; by the way, it is said that the basis of his preaching was to marry a wealthy widow. . . I think of Paul’s sister, I

don’t know who directly said the original word of Jihad, jihad. . . I immediately thought of the Middle East. When the book was completed in the 1960s, OPEC had not yet sat down and started to engage in the capitalist world economic crisis. The author opened his eyes.

    Is this the worst film ever made by David Lynch? I have to say that it is very concise and straightforward, with a straightforward business account, and the key points are not prominent. What is even more terrifying is that the costumes, makeup, and props are extremely bad. , the Middle Ages had to be made into the various imperialist warlords in Europe before the First World War, but mixed with the perverted magic props style, but the villain Harkonnen was the biggest failure, and there was no evil at all. like a pervert. No cunning, ruthless, conspiracy to see. And he seems to be in the attire of a modern factory during World War II. A metamorphosis of modern industrial production. Several parts are the same as the running accounts. The plot is too rigid, the characters are too thin, and the personal relationship is basically analyzed without any details. It is full of the style of the drama of the 1980s. sleepy. Not to mention the bad special effects, that kind of performance, designing all kinds of sci-fi renditions, is simply a failure of a failure.

    D / It turns out that Lynch does not have editing rights. No wonder some elements that are still very cult have been combined into more streamlined sci-fi commercial works. From the current point of view, of course the special effects are really hot eyes, and the lines of the plot have a strong sense of two, but after all, they are not to the point of bad. During the viewing process, it was extremely suspected that The Legend of the Conferred Gods had plagiarized this art setting. The Golden Palace, sandworm, are too similar. McLachlan looked so good when he was young!

    Dr. Kynes: Always.

    Dr. Kynes: To protect their territory. Vibrations attract them.

  • Paul: Is there a relationship between the worms and the spice?

    Dr. Kynes: As I said, they defend the spice sands. As to their relationship with the spice, who knows?
