THE FREMEN (Paul Atreides' Unstoppable Desert Warriors) DUNE EXPLAINED

Hey guys what’s happening? Niyat here with film comics explained, and as requested, today we’re exploring the Fremen, as featured in Frank Herberts amazing Dune universe.
Originally known as the Free Men of Arrakis, The Fremen were a sub-culture of humans descended from the Zensunni Wanderers. They were hard in survival, adapted in the harsh environment of the planet and formed an integral part of the Muad'Dib's Jihad launched by Paul Atreides.
I have covered the confusing history and trajectory of Paul Atreides in my video exploring Denis Villeneuve's Dune, links in the description, but here I hope to show how instrumental the Fremen were to his rise to power.
First appearing in the 1965 novel Dune, they inhabit the desert planet Arrakis (also known as Dune), which is the sole known source in the universe of the all-important spice melange. Long overlooked by the rest of the Imperium and considered backward savages, in reality they were an extremely hardy people that exist in large numbers.

I used to live in the middle east as a child and there was an event where my family and others would go into the desert, a good two three hours deep and set up tents for night out, you don't know real peace until you smell the sand at night and hear the gentle wind, it's an almost clean smell and not a single car in range.

I had an older sister that passed away but before that I remember how utterly hooked she was on Lynchs film and Herbert's world building regarding the Dune Saga. She'd always tried to get me to watch it but I was too little to really fall into it and let myself get immersed in the lore like she did. I decided to give it another try for her when the new one came out just because I'm sappy like that and wanted to give it one more go to see if their was something I'd missed back then. Holy...Sh*t am I obsessed with this now 😆 the fact that Herbert created this in the 60s with an entire world and religions and dang..just everything blows me away. To tell a story that spans that amount of time and through so many people and dynasties yet still never lose the focus and convictions/motives behind each personality and end goal is just amazing. I can totally see what she always bugged me about now and it's never to late to watch the entire saga unfold now with everything else that's due out in the universe especially thinking about how she would feel about the comparisons between directors, etc.

The thing about the Jihad is that Paul foresaw it via Spice-induced prescience and he wanted to prevent it, but could not. Even if he died, the Jihad would go on anyway. Paul also foresaw the Golden Path, but flinched from it. Leto foresaw it and stepped onto it. Leto's death, Siona's invisibility from prescience, and the Scattering were all intended results.

The only way it could’ve been avoided was if Paul, Jessica and every single one of Stilgar’s Fremen died in the water cave. Paul felt the opportunity quickly arrive, and just as fast, slip out of his hands like sand; but he didn’t know until it was too late, and by then the Jihad was again the only possible outcome. It’s incredible just how unavoidable the massacre is, *it* will _always_ happen.

In the books, Paul cries when the funerary rites for Jamis are being conducted because he thinks his death was unnecessary and he feels guilty. The Fremen are awed, as tears in their culture are seen as "giving water to the dead" and are an almost mythical thing, reserved only for a close friend or loved one. This is one scene that drills into Jessica's head the importance that the Fremen give to water, and confirms Paul and her as the ones spoken about in the Lisan al Gaib prophecy since he passed the Amtal test. I was honestly shocked they omitted it from the movie. "I was a friend of Jamis," Paul whispered. "Jamis taught me... that... when you kill... you pay for it." -- Paul Atreides

One of the reasons Herbert wrote Dune was due to the distrust he had of charismatic leaders and how the people are fickle, manipulable and surrender their freedom (with the respective critical sense and necessary distrust to the government) to follow the various scoundrels that infest the global history. The sight of JFK and the charisma he exuded - just remember the romanticism of his government and person that emerged after his assassination. The best passage of the 6 books is in the dialogue with Stilgar in "Dune Messiah": Genghis Khan killed 4 million, Hitler killed 6 million, and I sterilized planets." What a magnificent "hero" Paul Atreides was. And how the followers of a leader expand the mistakes of their leadership (religious, political, etc).

Siona didn't really "develop" the ability to evade prescient sight. Leto II waited until one of his sisters descendants was born with it. He then, quite deliberately, let her cause his 'death', though it seems to have been more of a dispersal of his mental powers back into small fragments within the sand trout and reemergent sandworms.

@Yakerina Жыл бұрын

Leto II deliberately bred Siona to produce humans who could hide from prescience. She was, as he said, an achievement. It seems as though this was something to do with Duncan Idaho, as he commented on how much effort it took to turn a recessive trait into a dominant one.

Another important effect of Melange is its geriatric properties that extend life expectancy. I believe it was the geriatric properties of spice that most of the nobles and commoners (who could afford it) desired. The side effect of the benefit of extended life was the requirement to keep taking melange in quantity. Stopping would result in a fast painful death. This addiction to melange was what drove the spice market economy for everyone outside of the Spacing Guild and Bene Gesserit. Prescience, was more of an elevated and technical effect, but it required large quantities of spice that anyone outside of the Imperial House, Spacing Guild and Bene Gesserit couldn't afford. Even House Harkonnen didn't use their vast store of spice for prescience, but rather as a commodity to be traded and saved as value. They, like the major Houses, used their spice for geriatric purposes.

Rereading Dune, I noticed a big mistake in the new Dune movie. The scene where the Sardukar kill Kynes. Kynes is directly working for and reporting to the emperor, so the Sardukar would believe whatever Kynes told them. Which is why the baron has Kynes killed away from the Sardukar. Although, the scene in the movie was pretty cool. Amazon really screwed up. They should have used that billion dollars to have DV make a 50-60 hour Dune Saga and just keep everything in from the books. Instead of whatever they did with LotR.

Dune is more or less unsutable as a movie or trillogy. Like you hinted at, the best format would be a series. There was 2 series made about 20 years ago, that are pretty much true to the first 2 books. They are cringe to watch though, bad acting and weird costumes etc. But if you like a more pure Dune adaptation, thats the closest you get. In the movie some creative license have been used, like changing the sex of Kynes, and they way "she" meets her death. But thats not the only changes done compared to the books. And there are too many to list here. For me though all the changes works, all the necessities are still there, its still Dune.

Maybe you could expand in that genre a bit more? IMHO it seems that as studios appear less willing to gamble on financing films that aren't based on a tried and tested intellectual property, perhaps video games may be the last bastion of original ideas. Maybe I'm overgeneralizing, and I do still have hope for the industry, and your videos and others like them give me a nice reprieve from all the politicking in and about film right now, so...Thanks!

I like the old Dune movie. But I like the latest even more

When you realize that Paul ultimately got used by the fremen to cause a galaxy wide genocide. They were never his to command.

0:04 ok. For those who don't know that dude in the very front with the fancy two sword set: thats Duncan Idaho. He 's the only one to carry a pair of Atredes blade and you can clearly see his features when the Camera zooms in.

None of the movies or the mini series shows Paul shedding tears for Jonas. They should. In the Dune world it had a serious meaning.

I kept telling myself to finish reading the book which I left off at page 209 back in 1996, but realised I should probably start over to fully get my more adult brain's perspective, but yeah that didn't happen.

How much calories would a sandworm use to dig and dive through 100 km of sand? Would it eat sand to nourish itself? But if so, why go for intruders?

Kind of hilarious... how much time the movie spends describing the sand walk yet you don't see a single fremen utilize in the entire movie

In the late 2000s while in high school I got really into Iron Maiden and started reading all the books their songs were based on. Eventually I heard To Tame a Land and read Dune. I loved the first book and it, along with The Doors of Perception by Aldous Huxley, is the reason I became interested in psychedelics which led me on a ten year quest looking for God and meaning. This search, which was ultimately the result of ego death and existential crisis brought on by my psychedelic use, led me back to the Christianity I was raised with and grown tired of. It’s weird to say, but my fascination with the effects of LSD and mushrooms led me back to Christ, even if my Pentecostal family doesn’t like my now being Catholic. All that to say, Dune had a huge impact on me when I was younger and after all these years, I’ve started reading the books again. And I really wish I had kept reading them, I am amazed at how intricate and well thought out the universe is. I especially love how it presents a future of humanity that grew out of technology and instead seek to improve themselves, elevating the human mind to extreme but believable levels. I’m really enjoying reading these books and I am extremely grateful that this amazing KZfaq channel exists to help me put everything in context.
