Seriously, that is sig worthy.SandRider wrote:And if Arnie is offended that I ridicule him and his struggles with booze and "recovery", fuck him. Don't post about it. This is internet jihad and he is an infidel.
Atleast Arnie's awake. Sort of.On a thread Three Months Dead, Arnie wrote:You mean Paul wasn't really born on Caladan?Sole man wrote: Paul was born in Frank's imagination.
No, Arnie's seriously head-fucked:SandRider wrote:At least Arnie's awake. Sort of.
Does it make any sense to anybody what he's saying here? Yeah, FH was so into his characters that he completely ignored the plot, changed shit all the time. That's why his books are such a bitch to read, you never can tell what the hell is going on. But his characters sure read real, don't they?Remember the[=that?] FH’s writings were character driven rather than plot driven - - thus alleged plot changes that occurred before the events portrayed in Dune, i.e., Paul going off planet, are inconsequential to the events depicted in Dune. That being said FH wasn’t above making minor changes to his characters- - such as Scytale being portrayed in Dune Messiah as a face dancer and in CH:D he is a master!

No, that's the point. He doesn't know how to get anyone's attention by communicating clearly. He instead posts bewildering shit so he won't be ignored and will at least be acknowledged as an idiot of noteSandChigger wrote: Does it make any sense to anybody what he's saying here?

could someone please provide a link to a circle-jerk emoticon ?Over There >> Characters of Dune >> Princess Irulan // yesterday & todayArnie wrote:A major force in the Dune universe, writer, wife of Paul Muad’Dib by name only, a conspirator in the plot against Muad’Dib, “poisons” Chani leading to her death and her children being preborn, however she seems to repent and becomes loyal to the Atreides twins.
Thoughts . . .Merritt wrote:I always had a slight problem with Paul continuing to keep Irulan as a wife after he'd defeated the Corrinos. I mean, if you wanted to marry her in order to keep political ties going, I can understand that, but his Jihad allowed him carte blanche; he could've married whomever he liked, IMO.Arnie wrote:Chani apparently didn't want Irulan to be "put away,"- - since keeping Irulan nearby had it's advantages.Paul sank back against the headboard. "Shall I put her away?" he asked. "Her use is limited now and I don't like the things I sense about her trip home to the Sisterhood."
"You'll not put her away," Chani said. She went on massaging his legs, spoke matter-of-factly: "You've said many times she's your contact with our enemies, that you can read their plans through her actions."
~DMMerritt wrote:True. But in the end the plans didn't matter because Paul abandoned the Golden Path and left it to Leto II.
Simon wrote:I think this new version could be good, they just need a good cast (unknowns are fine by me, if the person can play the roll I don't care what his or her name is), and grand cinematic detail (think Blade Runner and Lord of the Rings level detail), and for the director to understand the best way to showcase the Duniverse within his means.
