Dune Part 1 Section B Through a Kid’s Eyes


On Paul putting on a stillsuit:
Keynes- *whispers* “He shall know your ways as though born to them.”
Anabelle- “Oh, you tuck in your pants?
You’re the messiah! 
This is so dumb, if I was going out into a sandy desert, I’d tuck my pants in too.”
 
On the harvesters being constantly threatened by sandworms:
Anabelle- “They have to move a million times a day. They just shouldn’t get Spice.”
Me- “It’s needed for space travel.”
Anabelle- “Then don’t.”
*The flier to pick up the harvester breaks when a worm is coming*
Duke Leto- "How many men on that crawler?"
Anabelle- “It’s about to be none.”
 
On Paul walking on the desert floor for the first time:
Anabelle- “Oh he DIDN’T tuck his pants in.
I feel that’s impractical.
Ooh look- Spice.
It’s sparkly. 
*Thoughtful pause*
Probably edible glitter.
Hey Paul, maybe you should put your deserting mask on.”
 
On Paul talking to his mother:
*Jessica wonders why she’s having strange thoughts*
Anabelle- “Maybe because you’re a weird space nun.”
*Jessica advises Paul to remain unmarried to leave it open for “political alliance”*
Anabelle- “That’s kinda crazy.
I wanna see Zendaya. I don’t care about these people “
 
On the Sadrukar attacking Arrakis, destroying everything and killing many:
Anabelle- “This is no good.
How are they going to get Spice.
This plan to get rid of them (The Atreides) seems too complicated.”
 
On the distinction between Duncan and Gurney:
Anabelle- “’War Master’ and ‘Weapons Master’?
Sounds like the same thing to me.”
 
On Paul and Jessica captured by Sadrukar and taken on an ornithopter:
Sadrukar- “Let’s feed the cub to the worms.”
Anabelle- “Yeaaaaaah!”
Sadrukar- “And give her a long goodbye.”
Anabelle- “Uh… no, let’s not do that.”
Paul *trying to use The Voice* “Don’t you dare touch my mother!”
*It has no effect*
Anabelle- “Ha ha! He doesn’t have the nunnin’ powers yet.”
*We find out that Sadrukar is deaf*
Anabelle- “Ah.
There is a severe lack of worms in this movie. I was promised worms.”
 
On the Harkonens in the Atreides dining room, with the Duke Paralyzed:
Anabelle- “Wow, he has a great view of the Bull head.
*pause*
MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!”
*The Baron floats over to Duke Leto*
Anabelle- “He doesn’t need to hover that high.”
*Duke Leto releases the poison gas in his tooth, the lament plays*
Anabelle- “AAAAAaaaaahhhhh.
Oh, the Baron is still alive.
So unfortunate.“
 
On Paul and Jessica taking the ornithopter:
*The lament plays*
Anabelle- “AAAAAaaaaahhhhh.
It’s the sparkly cinnamon song.”
*Paul starts having visions and complaining about them, saying armies are shouting his name*
Jessica- “Your name is Paul, Paul Atreides.”
Anabelle- “Yes, that is his name.”
Paul *using The Voice* “GET OFF ME!”
Anabelle- “That is no way to talk to your space nun mom.”
Paul- “You made me a freak!”
Anabelle- *laughs* “I can’t take Timothee Chalamet seriously.”
Rosa- “Why is he a freak?”
Anabelle- “Because his mom is a space nun, and she gave him weird space nun magic powers.”
The space nuns are called ‘beets’.”
Me- “Bene Gesserit.”
Anabelle- “’Beets’ *pause with smug grin* I know everything about Dune.”
 
On Paul talking to Kynes about the “Voice From the Outer World:”
Anabelle- “Oh my God! 
Will you can it about the Lisan al-Gaib! 
It’s not real. It’s space nun stories.”
 
On Paul and Jessica flying into an enormous sandstorm:
Anabelle- “There’s a lot less worms in this story only about spice and worms than there should be.”
*Paul and Jessica recite the litany against fear*
Anabelle- “Not this again.”
*Paul mentions they must flow with the visions*
Anabelle- “The Spice is flowing…  
In a waterfall.”
*Cut to the Baron in a healing tank being told about the storm*
Anabelle- “Eww what is that?
Oh, a healing bath. 
Like a bacta tank.”
*Back to the storm, the lament plays*
Anabelle- “AAAAAaaaaahhhhh.”
*Then the wings fall off the ornithopter*
Anabelle- “AAH!!!”
 
On Paul and Jessica running from the crashed ‘thopter across the sand to rocks:
Anabelle- “They should do the little dance."
*Shakes her butt*
"That's me when I don't want a sand worm.”
 
On the worm rising up and roaring at Paul:
Anabelle- “That’s worm for, 
‘Isn’t that the Lisan al-Gaib? Hey Paul.'”
 
On the group of Fremen appearing
Anabelle- “Is that Zendaya?
I’ve had enough waiting for Zendaya.
Oh, it’s a million Fremen. I hope one is Zendaya.”
 
On the introduction of the Fremen “weirding woman:”
Anabelle- “Does that mean she is a Beet?”
 
On the first non-vision appearance of Chani:
Anabelle- “ZENDAYA!  I’ve been waiting!”
 
On Janis challenging the idea of bringing Paul and Jessica along with the Fremen:
Anabelle- “Are they gonna fight?
Yes, cause Janis is being a jerk.
I hate everyone in this movie.
Except Zendaya…
and the spitting guy.”
*We see all the Fremen in their stillsuits*
Anabelle- “Nobody’s breathing with their mouth.”
Chani- “I don’t believe you’re the Lisan al-Gaib.”
Anabelle- “Me neither.”

Janis- “Where is the outlander!!!!!”
Anabelle- “Give him a second he’s talking to Zendaya.”
Paul- “I’ve been seeing you on my dreams.”
Anabelle- “That was SUCH a creepy voice.
Doesn’t he go crazy or something?
Me- “It’s complicated.”
Anabelle- “Of course it is.”
 
On the crysknife fight:
*Lament plays*
Anabelle- “AAAAAaaaaahhhhh.”
*The Fremen chant Kwisatz Haderach during the fight*
Anabelle- “There’s no way it’s spelled like that.
Did he just stab him?!?!
AAAAAaaaaahhhhh.
*Pause*
Well he kinda sucked but still.
Anyway.
AAAAAaaaaahhhhh.”
 
On the final shot of one of the Fremen riding a Maker:
Anabelle- “There’s someone standing on the worm.
*stares in disbelief*
‘Cause that’s effective and practical.”
