“Dune” can be described as a heavyweight film production, the film is adapted from Frank Herbert’s famous science fiction novel.
The “Dune” novel was first published in 1965 and won the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award, and has since been regarded as a hallowed masterpiece.
Such a magical work, why hasn’t it been put on the big screen for so many years?

Because the novel covers politics, religion, philosophy, history, human evolution, and even poetry.
The plot of the story is intricate, with numerous characters, and a large number of character dialogues and psychological descriptions, which discourages many directors.
This time, the director who dared to bite the hard bones is Denis Villeneuve, a hot new director of Hollyjun.
Denis Villeneuve’s works in recent years have a good reputation.
For example, Sicario in 2015, Arrival in 2016, and Blade Runner 2049 in 2017.
Whether this movie can become his masterpiece, let us wait and see.
What story is “Dune” telling?
Let’s take a closer look through some details of the trailer.
In the distant future, humans live on different planets and have established a galactic empire in space.
The major families in the empire control different planets respectively. The two major families are the most prominent, and they control different planets respectively, and the two major families are the most prominent.
One is the Atreides family represented by Duke Leto Atreides. The home planet of the Atreides family is Karadane, a beautiful planet surrounded by mountains and rivers.
The protagonist of the story is Paul, he is the son of Duke Leto.
The other is represented by Laban the Beast, the Harkonnen family.
The planet of the Harkonnen family is seriously polluted and the sky is not visible, so they have pale skin and no hair.
There are other political forces in the galactic empire, the imperial government, the aerospace trade union, and the sisterhood. Each organization has a delicate relationship between the planet lords.
And the entire galactic empire is inseparable from a kind of spice, which is also called “melange”.

“Melange” provides energy for interstellar voyages and can also extend the life of human beings. The machine in the flying sand is the “melange” collection vehicle, and cosmic voyage is impossible without spice.
This kind of spice is only found on the planet Erax, which is also called sand dunes.
Therefore, whoever controls the spice-rich sand dunes controls the lifeblood of the universe.
There are three forces on Dune Planet, in addition to the Atreides family and the Harkonnen family, there are also the original famous Fremen.
Under the nourishment of spice, they have blue eyes. The clothes they wear are called distillation suits, which can recover their own water for recycling.
Fremen has been defending his planet.
In order to compete for resources on the sand dunes, the two families went to war, and the Atreides family suffered heavy losses.
During the war, we saw Chen Chang with a group of bald heads, and his identity was self-evident.
In the great victory of the Harkonnen family, Lady Jessica and her son Paul escaped and encountered sandworms during their escape in the desert.
Sandworms are quite powerful and can suck out the entire minecart. It is the king on this planet.
Sandworms produce spice, which inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen, and can swallow anything except sand and spice.
Paul met the aboriginal Fremen while fleeing, and also met Chani, the girl in his dream.
Under the stimulation of the spice, Chani awakened Paul, and his eyes turned blue for the ability to foresee the future.
As the story progresses, Paul leads Fremen to fight the invaders.
The technology is so advanced that it can travel interstellar, why use cold weapons?
From this sparring practice, we can see that they all have energy protection shields.
The protective shield can block the attack of hot weapons, but in front of cold weapons, it can be broken in close combat.
What is the fate of everyone in the movie? I won’t have too many spoilers here. I look forward to the release of “Dune”.
Behind the scenes of this movie, “Dune” was filmed in the desert of Jordan, and 80% of it was shot in real scene.
Villeneuve is good at using the natural perspective to shape the macro atmosphere. The composition of the film is still his strong point. The composition is simple and atmospheric.
The status of “Dune” in science fiction literature is the same as the status of “The Lord of the Rings” in fantasy literature. The adaptation of “Dune” is a very risky project.
We will wait and see!
