This will kill word of mouth. I've been a Dune fan for 30 years and have been the living version of the Hawkeye "Don't give me hope." Then the algorithm led me here a few months back and you have built my hype. WB's conduct is reprehensible, period. Keep up the good work man.
Echo your sentiments! Sorry, but I’ve been a Dune fan for about 50 years. Thrilled to see so many folks on board. Strong work Quinn! Keep it up.
I am absolutely more of a Dune fan thanks to Quinn's fantastic content. I've been intrigued by the Dune universe for years, but had a hard time making it through the physical books. I finally made it through the audio version, and that coupled with Quinn's videos has thoroughly brought me into the Dune fandom. Quinn does an amazing job summarizing and contextualizing this universe, and his excitement and enthusiasm is so infectious. I'm behind you all the way man!!!
Dune fans: free marketing
Warner Bros: "Wait, that's illegal."
Dune films: fail
Warner Bros: "How did this happen?"
@tod ashby Jesse what the fuck are you talking about?
@tod ashby Jesus fuck, dude, get off the Internet, stop watching Fox news and smell the grass, interact with different people and relax.
@tod ashby why are you crying about cathode ray tubes? are you triggered by LEDs?
You can't say that anyway
Look WB copyrighted ZSJL but it became successful
Its as if every CEO/Executive on Earth right now is a Harkonnen.
They are MUCH worse.
nah.. the harkonnen are way more intelligent
LOL Best comment so far
Nah man, Harkonnens are evil but they are not stupid.
We're not far away from a cyberpunk future now.
Fun fact : Warner Brothers was renamed Weyland-Yutani Corporation in 2099.
First they have to buy the Alien franchise from Fox then we’re talking

Quinn "Warnerbrothers is attacking me for no good reason" Star Wars, Macross, Bttletech/Mechwarrior, Warhammer/40K fans; "First time?". I sware these company executives get to their position by failing upwards.
It's called an 'inverted pyramid' [ sarc.]
Games Workshop. The very champion of Khorne himself. He takes skulls for the skull throne.
star wars was always bad lmao
I suppose that WB doesn't want to make money, go figure
Snyderverse fans here welcome to the club
This is legit depressing. Why on Earth would anybody strike against someone who does the hard work of marketing for them. For free, just because they care. I'm rooting for you. And for Dune.
Reminds me of the time that Microsoft had someone jailed for refurbishing pc and getting the OEM Windows License back in. More points for FOSS.
Because it’s probably automated and loosely managed by over zealous overpaid copyright lawyers. Like, it’s not like John Warnerbrothers is sitting in his office saying “pull the trigger on taking down that Quinn guy’s CZcams channel”
They see no further than anyone covering their material as a commodity...... content be damned.... they care not want... stupid just stupid
Trust them not.
The Ideas must flow..
Strength to your arm.
legendary funded 70% of this movie, WB didnt do shit so doesnt care that much about dune
WB is doing exactly what killed X-Files. For the young people or those who don't remember X-Files went after all the fan web sites and bulletin boards. These were fans who were keeping their franchise alive. After all the X-File sites closed the franchise just died. Whereas there are still Xena fan sites and they still have an active community. WB are just being stupid.
The passion in this man's plea to WB to stop their ass-hattery is inspiring and heartbreaking.
I’m always amazed on modern corporate and Hollywood mentality. Attack the fans prior to release then blame them after it fails…
That's the "rigged election" gambit we are so familiar with these days.
You're literally the only reason I ever started caring about Dune, I don't even just mean the movie, I mean the world, the story, I genuinely wouldn't care about this movie if you weren't here
Bro.
If it wasn't for your passion I would never have read the books.
facts
💯
Same here. I was watching a vid heard about the movie through this channel and then read the books. Now I'm thrilled about the movie because of DV.
This will be the first film I'll see at the cinema in about three years, have seen zero other advertising for it, if not for this channel I would not currently even know it existed
Same. The first ad I saw was one that popped up on Facebook, after I commented on WBs post on twitter telling them I only knew and was hyped because of Quinns videos
I can not imagine not going to the cinema in that long.... There's some advertising here and there. But nothing major, I know of the movie because it has made the news because it's was delayed because of COVID.
Same. I'm planning on going to see it but pretty much only bc of youtube commentary like this. Absent hype from fans i respect I'd just assume it's bad like many DC movies. WB is making very stupid choices
I live in Hong Kong and we had first few and sparse posters around in MTR show up just this weekend... I wouldn't have probably even noticed if my brother wouldn't been hyping the movie since it was announced and I wouldn't be interested if it wasn't for Quinn's videos on the subject
Sadly I think this’ll be a one movie “franchise”. WB has shown, via their DC properties, that they don’t have the guts to stick it and so they just make reactionary choices. They lack the longview to do a ten year, big budget sweeping epic.
If it wasn’t for your channel, I wouldn’t even know about the Dune movie.
Yeah same
I knew through the algorithms pushing me content. But other sources are retreading tweets. Quinn inspires me to rethink and analyze the themes and story, and gets me to forward links to friends from other geeky communities, both to engage with the content and get hyped with trailers and discuss the movies potential.
Without these deeper divers I know I might still go, but would not be hyped, wouldn't spread the word, wouldn't get my Tolkien friends to watch a Quinn's Ideas break down to see if they want to get hooked like me and get the audiobook and make plans to discuss after watching....
Exactly.
I even re-bought the novel again six months ago and re-read it due to this channel and - *_Mike's Book Reviews_* - too ,who is also a huge series fan.
Same
I'm planning to see it in the theater because of your channel.
You've done the most out of anyone to revitalize the Dune fanbase. Friends who I've not once spoken to about Dune, and wouldn't take as fans now watch your channel and have read the books without me ever mentioning your channel! I think Denis has learned from Blade Runner, as much as I liked that movie. I don't see any other movie in the next 2 years that will make me go out to theaters except Dune, and that alone give me hope for this film and its sequels.
He’s the reason I bought and started reading the book… He single handedly brought me into the Dune world and Frank Herbert
I think it's been apparent for a long time that the management at WB has been trapped in a toxic personality culture that has no end in sight. Do not get your hopes up. WB will shoot themselves in the foot every time, come hell or high water.
I remember the original movie on TV and I bought every Dune book in my local bookstore.
Agreed about Quinn. Punishing his channel for pushing their product is idiocy by WB.
Agreed with impunity.
CZcams content was how I learned of the Dune remake. And creators like you are why I'm really looking forward to this adaptation.
Without CZcams I wouldn't even know Dune was being remade into a movie.
WB showing they have poor water discipline. The whole Sietch is disappointed.
Great analogy. WB's actions are going to hurt everyone involved. Theatres, Legendary, all the cast and crew...
The rest of the film industry should treat WB like Jacarutu, since they are behaving exactly like water-stealers.
they do not share their water with the tribe
@@theeffete3396 🤜🏼🤛🏼✊🏼🏴
@elf twentyfive Bi-lal kaifa.
Also you should get on the r/dune subreddit to raise awareness of this issue..
I loved the books and the extended books and I loved David Lynch's version as a kid. I would not have known about this new Dune if not for Quinn. You are my favorite CZcams voice (out of many).
I don’t understand why they would do this?!? You have done more to hype this and actually know DUNE lore more than any I have seen. I JUST DONT GET IT.
You have a passion for the content and really understand it. Are they getting ahead of a bad movie? I hope not! But why bash a “small time” content creator who loves the lore and IP? It seems counterproductive. Keep up the work man. I read for the first time in Iraq. I do not need to elaborate. Your love for the content is REAL and I don’t get it.
It's awesome
But Quinn didn't hyped me
Honestly I wish Dune would just be a series on HBO with that Game of Thrones budget
Agreed. That's something which could actually work and be a success.
They are developing a Bene Gesserit prequel series. Denis is even supposed to direct the first episode!
@@Dartagnan65 If the film and that series does well, it could open up the way for such a thing going into the later Dune books.
I see what you're saying having it a series on TV...but after TPTB made that dumpster fire of a series finale, I feel like Dune may have dodged a bullet. Besides Villaneuve is brilliant
@@conallen1 it breaks my hear but it's probably true. The the HBO that made The Sapranos, The Wire, Boardwalk Empire, Rome, TREME The Corner , Generation Kill and the early years of GOT is no longer. None of the people that greenlight any of those shows no longer works there. HBO in name only
Hey. Old time dune fan and independent book/comic shop owner here. Just wanted to let you know that my Fargo, ND store’s dune club have been following your channel for years. You’re videos are top notch and you Fargo’s support
I’m from Fargo, too!
I didn't even know there was a new Dune trailer until I saw you in my recommended videos.
You tought me about Dune lore and that made me more interested in the movie.
I think having big names playing a lot of the characters will help this film out a lot
I agree because a lot of people doesn't know about Dune. Now there is still a lot of people that does but these actor's will add more fan's to this great story.
what will help this film will be a good story, NOT a story where the male characters are degraded just to make the female characters look more powerful/superior and NOT a story about a girl who's the KEY to everything
There’s only one real “big name” Aquadude😅
Not if it doesn’t make $
@@theunknown1426 If Denis makes that mistake then the movie is fucked, Dune itself is full of strong characters soo I don't see why the movie would try something like that.
Ive spent an unholy amount of time gauging reaction and this is what I’ve come up with: WB’s bs notwithstanding, the reactions has been enthusiastically positive. I have faith that it will do well to very well. Trust.
It definitely will hurt and it’s really really dumb that they’re attacking youtubers that are basically giving them free *meaningful* advertising for their product. People come to these youtubers because they trust them. It’s something that literally no amount of ad money can purchase. Credibility is priceless.
I feel like we need a "Chef Ramsey" of movie studios to snap at them with a cluster of F-bombs for mistreating their patrons.
We need studios owned and operated by the actors, workers, and consumers, not capitalists.

Just a friendly reminder that Bladerunner 2049 flopped, and the Emoji Movie got a sequel. They're gonna snuff the fans, and the general audience will think the movie is boring and weird.
Coming from someone that was into 2049 and it was just ok. I feel that Dune will be waaay better because of the action. But I do agree with you
Watch, there won't be a part 2.
@@Marinealver At lest as a theatrical release. Might end up on streaming.
Truth.
@@diplayball yeah Dune will be setup better than 2049 for success... no doubt. Though COVID will re-balance that and bring the film down. Just a sad state of affairs.
I just hope we get part 2 of the first book.....dune messiah,children of dune and the latter ones just isnt mainstream enough to get approved for 200-300 mil budget
But the story isn't comprehensible without them, at least including God Emperor.
Dunes budget is about 150 and remember they could reuse a lot of the props.
I want to at least get to Children
@@SweetandFullofGrace dunes budget is 200 mil+ ....
imagine an adapted god emperor by Dennis wow
Your channel is great and helped to bring myself up to date with whole Dune as it was years since I've got books in my hand. I love your comments on the trailers and other content because people like you often point to the details someone like me could just miss. I'm excited about new Dune but watching your videos is like a having a chat with a good friend before the screening and knowing someone else as exited to see the movie.
Having watched you going through the last trailer and the live about your 18 minutes and more hyped me way more than what i had seen on my own. you are my Go to Dune Expert (watched your whole channel and dune playlist more than once!) i am excited because of you as a youtuber and a dune geek and expert
If it weren´t for you Quinn, I'd never know that a Dune movie was coming.
to warner brothers: this dude has been repping dune for years, he might be personally responsible for you making tens of millions more on this movie than you would have without him making videos. you really should be paying this guy, not messing with his channel.
I agree 100%
In the long run the internet will show that the old guard of companies like WB will fail versus single individuals like Quinn who can make content that is at the least on par with anything those moribund companies produce.
Truth
"Long live the FIGHTERS!"
Oh your videos are ABSOLUTELY a huge part of why i'm so hyped for the new movie and just for reading more Dune!!!
Quinn thank you for this. Can't wait till it comes out.
They've little bits in there that add humor and humanity to the characters. I think that will help bring 'em in.
I feel like the best chance this film has is the ensemble cast and the trailers relying on action scenes and sort of the game of thrones in space vibe by having rival houses at war with each other.
Yep, I’m of the same opinion, if Villeneuve hadn’t used that Aqua-meathead for the girls and Zendaya for the kids, as bait, ONLY true fans would ever see this movie. Which would never be enough to generate sufficient revenues for the company, to be satisfied. And the hype-monkeys who WILL show up for that knuckle-dragging Mamoa, and the pervy-sheep who will be there for Rebecca and Zendaya, will soon be both, baffled AND bored out of their FREAKIN’ minds, THEN they’ll tell their friends, who will tell their friends and so on, and so on. The on the upside, with a little luck,Villeneuve might just make enough cash, to buy himself a ticket for a return trip, to Quebec.
@@maxwarfield6699 bruh...let those mindless mass audience give us dune fans a service by just showing and help it earn 500m+..cuz we know they ain't gonna show up for 2nd or 3rd time. What dune needs is a strong box office opening and maintain it for 1 week or 2..then we will get DUNE 2. 😛
I am definitely more hyped watching your videos about the Dune movies, and other videos about Dune and other franchises, this is unbelievable!!!
Thank you for your dedication and commitment to this series and to scifi in general...your vids have def reconnected me to the books and got me excited for the new movie.
Your channel introduced me to Dune, and your content has continually been the reason why I'm so hyped about the movie. I'm not even sure if I would be interested in it if you hadn't convinced me this is a story I could get majorly into.
Man, the roller coaster ride you've been on in the last 48 hours...
Your the reason I picked up the first book before I knew about the production of the movie. I’d known about dune for years and your into videos got my interest peaked. Love the Chanel!
I hadn't read the Dune novels in 20 years, and all your vids brought a whole new level of understanding to them that i'd somehow overlooked back then... then watching you share all your excitement, expectations, speculations, reverence for the upcoming movies over the past couple of years - man, that was totally contagious, especially your reaction to the first trailer which was almost as brilliant to watch as the trailer itself, seeing how you obviously had trouble remaining seated in your chair, and given what we knew of your dedication to that universe... so yeah i can safely say that my interest for the movie has been whipped up tenfold into a giant sugar candy of awesomeness by following your channel, and WB is really doing a disservice to itself by harassing you
I’ll be taking all my family and friends to see the film when it comes out, let’s make sure we get Part 2!!
It can't. I've come to terms with this a while ago. It looks like it'll be fantastic, but WB is corrosive. In addition, Dune is too sophisticated for the general public in today's day and age. Certainly in the current theater market. I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but I highly doubt we'll get a part 2.
However, I really want to be wrong on this.
"This day and age?" Try me. The proles have always been little nore than the scum the higher ups always think they are.
@@Deridus WB has put out low quality movies for awhile now ,that's what you wanna defend ? Lol
Villeneuve should’ve made it 1 film. It’s Gunna be an unresolved cult classic, and any attempts at a sequel far down the line will inevitably fall short.
@@oceanpacific3841 i'm not defending anything. I'm mocking both WB and the smoothbrains who can't understand or appreciate anything more advanced than, say, tictok 'videos.'
@@Deridus gotcha I misinterpreted what you said
Your content has got me so so hyped for DUNE, you also got me into reading all the books! I’m a massive fan because of you’re awesome content. Your ultimate guides have helped me understand the philosophy and complexity of the novels, and your lore videos were just a blast to watch! I can honestly say I would not be even close to how excited I am about this movie, if it were not for you my friend. Keep that good shit rolling!
I'm really excited for Dune, but every time I see one of your videos pumping it up I get even more excited! Thanks for the content you create!
You want from so optimistic to so uncertain in just two videos. That’s the power of the WB.
*Quinn plays with Baron Harkonnen doll*
My internal dialog: "These orders are seven-bloody-hours old! Go to 105% on the reactor. We're going to kill an old friend, Yvgeni. We're going to kill Ramius."
“…sitting on the bottom like an addled schoolboy…”
Fantastic reference.
You were the reason I started to get interested in dune^^ Started out watching your ASOIF vids and got interested in dune when you started doing videos of that. Now I read the first two books and am looking forward to the movie and got my sister interested in it too. Wouldn't have been much interested to watch the movie without your vids:)
The videos by you and Nerd Cookies are the reason that I am super excited for Dune! Technically, I love Dune anyway. But your videos are why I am actively looking forward to the movie.
I'm hyped simply because of the director. What he's done thus far and what he did with 2049 has me super excited
You're doing an amazing job dude. The amount of Dune related content you've made is incredible and WB should be paying YOU. I am way more excited because of the hype you've created. Keep it up mate.
Your reaction video definitely got me hyped. Shared it because of your take and excitement. My Dude, hang in there! You are an oasis/blessing for those timid to start epic storylines, films, unique genre, etc. And I am completely jealous of your (near?) great quality copy of book 1. Mine literally looks like I ate it 😏
I wouldn't know a thing about this movie if it wasn't for you and your videos. Your enthusiasm for the books and movie gets me pumped about it. They practically owe you for basically advertising for them better than they ever could.
If they do get far enough in. They have infinite clones of Jason Moma. Pretty big draw lol
You have to remember if the film is good it will Trump everything. Justice League was not a good film, let's be honest. But I think Dune will do well because Joker did well. Joker was a good film. All Warner Brothers shit aside, trust in the legendary team.
joker was ultra hyped by the media, Dune has zero hype.
Yeah I really, really didn't like Joker! So you're not making me feel any better
Blade Runner 2049 was also a good film
WB didn't have much faith in Joker
But many already knew who Joker was just from previous Batman movies. In this modern era, the gp don't even have a clue what Dune is.
I wouldn’t even know the movie was coming out but for you tubers, and because of the discussion, clips, etc. I’ve seen here, especially yours, have had a huge impact on my excitement for the movie to come out.
I first heard of your channel via your GOT videos back when the show was in its 3rd season.
But when I started watching your DUNE breakdowns, my enthusiasm for DUNE exploded.
I'm definitely seeing dune with friends in theaters maybe more than once. I do hope for a part 2 I hope to see it finished
I was already a hung Dune fan so I was already going to see it. However, WB should not be claiming your videos period. I support you and would do anything I can to keep you from getting strikes / claims.
I'm incredibly hyped for Dune!
Hung ayeeee? Nice… 😂
The CZcams content makes a big difference in my enthusiasm (and your channel in particular) - I completely support your points here
Channels like yours, Comic Book Girl, Secrets of Dune, Nerd Cookies, etc... Have kept my passion for Dune alive for the past few years, Absolutely.
❤
He right, you know…
So sorry this crap is happening to you, Quinn. I’ve enjoyed your videos since day freaking 1… I’ve turned several people on to your channel and the excellent content-especially the intensity of your oratory-approval is unanimous and thorough.
As shitty as all this is, persevere! You’re great! Really.
Warner Brothers wants the advertising revenue from the video they couldn’t care less if Quinn or anyone else is hyping the film or not. The fact that HBO max/theater release is costing them money because of piracy just shows how stupid they really are.
How how much ad rev could that be even... the fan multipler would pay out thousands of times more if WB had any sense at all
If it wasn't for you and your videos I wouldn't be so hyped for this movie. Your excitement pushed me to finally start reading the books, which I'm absolutely loving so far, and now I'm really excited too.
You're my hero man, I started this Dune journey with your channel. Keep on the unbelievably great job!
It's not illegal until you fight it legally. I know fighting it in court is expensive and time consuming. You would think that a bunch of content creators could get together, pool some money, get an attorney and fight it and not accept a settlement but fight it until there is a precedent set that what you guys do is transformative and qualifies as fair use.
Exactly I only found out about Dune by accident then started watching these
Quinn, you are the reason why I’m into Dune in the first place. Your Ultimate Guide to Dune videos are what opened my eyes to the greatness of these books. Without them, I don’t know if I’d be as enthusiastic or as passionate about Dune as I am now. It really is awful that you have to go through this, doubly so for this film’s prospects. I’m still gonna go see it as many times as I can (hopefully for the first time at TIFF), but this whole situation has really put a damper on my excitement.
Your channel is the only reason the new Dune movie is on my radar. you've made me more excited for this film than any other hype I've seen.
The thing that worries me the most is it being a flop and never getting the second part.
They've got a lot of name actors and cool visuals in the trailer. Assuming that a lot of people see the trailer, they SHOULD be good. Problem is, if they keep killing the hype, they'd better throw a sh-tload of money into advertising or they're not going to get that trailer in front of enough eyes, and THEN they have a problem. This whole copyright protection thing isn't necessarily fatal, but it IS needlessly flushing money down the toilet.
@@timhaldane7588 Its the sort of smart sci fi that might not sell well to mainstream audiences and the Pandemic might hurt it aswell, will be fucking tragic if it ends on a cliffhanger and gets cancelled.
It's not the "company" that needs to understand. It's a couple or few C-suite/execs with personality issues. That's what it comes down to.
While I had heard of Dune before knowing your channel, my hype for the film is definitely due to your work. Keep it up man!
Quinn, you and Secrets are ALL the reason I’m hyped about Dune.
Quinn, Do not worry. The film won't be released until late October. The studios ramp up the hype heavily just before release complete with late night show appearances, etc to fire up the buzz machine. It's very early and most people have very short term memories, especially when it concerns film. It will come out strong and it will be a hit.
Yeah and there's a fair bit of positive buzz around the latest trailer
Who watches late night anymore honestly? They need to go on podcasts lol
@@DemonicToilet They will do that too! Watch how other movies are marketed and you will see it's a large effort. I don't like that Quinn's channel was hit but WB is just being a big corporation and they won't commit resources to finding who's a positive fan or a negative one. It's too difficult for them. I work for a big creative corp too, and though I don't like it, I understand their insistence on controlling their IP.
YT is the primary reason I got hyped for Dune and encouraged me to finally read the books.
Your videos have reignited my interest in franchises I read long ago, like Dune and Hyperion. I really hope you win this battle.
I wouldn’t have even ever known about dune until I stumbled upon your channel. Since finding your content I’ve dived head first into the books and an a huge fan. I agree 100% with every point you made in this video bro.
You're seriously the only reason I decided to give Dune a try again. I hated HATED Dune with a passion. They're seriously going to tank another franchise because they don't want fan hyping it up.
I love the Dune books and without you and other 'tubers, I would never have heard of the new movie bc WB didnt / doesn't advertise this movie. You guys are the best hype machine for Dune. WB should be thanking you, nope, they should pay you for spreading the word. Keep up the good work.
I LOVE hearing you talk about Dune. I only read the first book, and i loved it. You help me build hype for the movie..
This channel is literally the reason that lead me to read the books again years ago. Safe to say I would not be half as hyped without it.
I’m trying to stay optimistic. Dune is going to some of the big film festivals (Venice and tiff) and I I think that’ll help create a lot of buzz about the movie before it comes out
This movie is gonna be a smashing success, don't let WB bring ya down
what will help this film will be a good story, NOT a story where the male characters are degraded just to make the female characters look more powerful and superior and NOT a story about a girl who's the KEY to everything
@@theunknown1426 yeah it is probly a lot more woketarded than the trailer will give an impression.....

FEEEEEEEEMOIDS!!!!!!!
REEEEEEEEEEEE
What does any of this Neckbeard NEET BS have to do with anything?
Your content actually convinced me to read the Dune saga. Thanks for all the great work!
I’ve always been hyped for this movie, but never so much as a couple of days ago, listening to your ecstatic description of what you saw at the event. It reminded me of when I was a kid back in the late 70’s and everyone was excited about Star Wars and telling me about it, though I didn’t get to actually see it until 1979. Same level of anticipation thanks to you.
Maybe a quick nitpick about "illegal."
The problem with contentID is that really, anything can be claimed, and it's really up to Google what they do with that claim. It's not necessarily a question of fair use for them as it is one of not having to deal with litigation. Everything is just about your user agreement and WB's user agreement with Google.
By contrast, using a legal process (like a DMCA takedown notice) would run into real problems. If you make bad faith takedown requests through DMCA, that's illegal, and WB could be sued for it.
Totally agree that this is very bad business for WB, though. I understand wanting to protect your content so that people can't just watch all the best parts of the movie on CZcams, but undercutting marketing efforts like this seems like a legal department that doesn't understand the business they're in.
I feel like moves like this will not hurt the movie, at least initially. Dune fans are going to see this movie regardless of who does what. Dune fans are, let's face it, a niche group, and it will not please them. Casual viewers are just happy to be going to the movies again, and will wonder why: "This is a lot like Star Wars.".
I subscribed on your channel a couple of months ago. Your brilliant and unparalleled knowledge of 'Dune', analysis, explanations etc revived my interest in F.Herbert so much that I began reading the books (I'm finishing Children of Dune these days). As many others have said, you are the best promoter of the upcoming movie here on tube! In fact, with your level of love and dedication for 'Dune', you should have been a consultant for the production!! I'm sorry for you and the movie as well for what those brainless lawyers from WB are doing to you and the movie! Stay strong man, and thank you for everything you've done so far for the movie and Herbert's work on the whole!
Bro, your channel got me into dune, thank you for that.
Having the two hottest zoomer actors as leads will break this adaptation into the mainstream I think.
WB is litterally the "why would they do this" meme
Keep up the good work Quinn. We are behind you
You are absolutely right, when I saw the trailer I immediately began searching CZcams for reviews on it. I had never heard of the novel and I wanted to hear other people’s thoughts and how they thought the film would do. After watching 3-4 videos of CZcamsRS expressing their excitement it made me super excited to see the film and read the books! Social media is so important for building a fandom! ❤️
I hope so at least well enough to get the sequel fingers crossed
WB is good at marketing blockbuster film
Quinn: wb it’s a awful company
Snyderverse fans and me: first time?
WB own a lot of things
@@leroyvermilion7708 but don’t WB it’s gonna merge with discovery meaning they’re replacing the old management
I've definitely become excited about the movie because of your channel. Adding my data point, and hoping that things get sorted properly and ethically in favor of you and other CZcams content creators.
Man, I'm 45yo and had never heard of Dune until your videos started popping up on my CZcams. I started seeing them. And couldn't stop. Saw them all by now, your voice is very calming and you do make all your work with love and respect. After seeing most of your videos, I bought all the books. Now Dune is the only movie I'm willing to see in the theater. All thanks to YOU. Had I never seen your videos, I would just look at Dune's trailer with disdain, because it looks like a "teenage love story with Jason Momoa I can wait to come to Netflix or Amazon Prime".
Thank you so much for all what you do and keep strong.
