I love how they gave her a love for her people and culture so deep that she rejects it being twisted and swept away for someone else's gain
It makes no sense, Chani couldn't have known about their prophecy having been influenced by outsiders. Something the BG did thousands of years ago. It made no sense to make her an edgy 2024 atheist either. Nor did it make sense to make Stilgar a comedic, naive radical who believes Paul is the one, straight from the start. It makes no sense that Chani would openly challenge Stilgar with a group of friends, that would end in a fight to the death. The Fremen have no real culture in the movies. Unlike in the books, where they have strict rules, values, norms.
I love that!!! Paul had to earn her love and that is exactly how I say it. The love scenes were just added anywhere and her distrust of the prophecies, the Bene Geserrat and the inevitability for the foreigners to want control was not pushed aside. I hope to see how it all ends in the next film.
Can we talk about the fact that she's wearing a tee shirt with the 1984's Dune poster? 😂👏 I find it really iconic!
I was 100% on board with how they presented that relationship until the end. They should’ve kept the “concubine” line and scene I think it’s very important
Nah its so much better for her to retain her identity and independence
@@writerchick94it will also take away from the complications of Paul having chani around while he has a whole harem.
Nah maybe later he can convince her to be with him but she's a real one for rejecting someone who's using people and resources and culture for his own ends
@@issa4767 I think you and writerchick94 may be speaking from a place of defending her agency. If so I agree in real life he choice is write. I’m saying I think it’ll take away from the story if they continue with the sequel books.
@@writerchick94it makes Paul a s***** person. A good man makes their woman feel secure
I really like zendeya because she is gourges and i feel she is so good , good human
I like that he earned her love. But there were also some moments where it felt like she still didn't love him as much as he loved her. I mean, after everything, Chani was basically willing to let him die (as far as she knew) when he drank the water and had to be forced to help, all because her helping might prove a "prophecy" was true. Felt a lot like one step forward, 2 steps back for building the love story. Don't get me wrong, loved that he earned her love more in this version, just felt like Chani could have also done a tiny bit more to deserve his love in return, you know? Yes, she helped guide and teach him to be Freman, but it sometimes was followed by scenes where Chani reaffirmed she didn't trust him, she doubted him, she didn't consider him Freman. Just my opinion :)
I do regret Chani not having a more solid backstory, than her simply being against religious beliefs, blind loyalty, politics and the idea of an 'outsider' saving her people. I felt Zendaya wasn't given enough layers to play with, nor did the relationship between Paul and Chani have anything solid to kick-start it with.
- The film didn't acknowledge that Dr Liet-Kynes ‘the Judge of the Change’ was in fact Chani's mother. Depriving Chani of an extra layer of grief and connection to Paul (also grieving a parent), who only survived thanks to her mother. That way they had more to bond over than just Fremen culture and technology. Kynes' legacy both within her family and within the larger Fremen community remains the dream of terraforming Arrakis to make it hospitable. Remember the ecological station from Part One? This was the work of Chani's family over generations.
- Also her mother was a well-known and respected figure among the Fremen, making Chani fully aware of the politics around the dream. Dr Kynes was working for the emperor, politically manipulating as best she could to win gains for the Fremen dream. This is not foreign to Chani. She's not green to the political machinations of the empire. She is the daughter of someone playing the game! So Chani leaving at the end of Part Two felt off.
Liet was a man in the book
Liet was a woman in the villeneuve film
@@proemiumiii1179
Damnit, I totally forgot about that!! Too bad because I liked Liet Keynes in the first movie and the laboratory scene!
And it's interesting to know because that's in the laboratory scene that Paul says that he plans to marry the emperor daughter!! It's like he's betraying Chani already without knowing her yet!
I'm really surprised Denis totally abandoned this storyline!!
On the other hand, Chani's character in the movie manage to be efficient enough without all this storyline! But yeah, at least a mention to Liet Keynes in a dialogue should have been made!!! Maybe in Dune part 3
It was quite interestingly done. At first glance, the change to the books appear small, but in principle they could change the trajectory of the story completely
It was a huge change. Personally i have a love/hate relationship with the trajectory of Chani's character, but i will know for sure where i stand only after watching Dune Messiah
@@ozymandias3068 Yes, it means that she will have much more of an own agenda. It could even mean, that they will not have children together, which considering the future role of the children, would be a collosal change
@@marcneef795 I am guessing they will still get back together and have children, in the movie Paul even says "she'll come to understand, I've seen it" which is a huge indicator that she will eventually be at his side again and will accept his choices even if she may partially disagree with them or would prefer a different way
@@jhart1979 That is an interesting point. But it could be a red hering or to just leave the future open.
Her t shirt!!! ❤
The choppy edits of this short video was very unnatural.
Her leaving at the end made no sense. In the books Paul does marry Princess Irulan for political reasons but is very clear Chani is his true love, there was no issue with this. In the movie she just walks away. Super annoying
She retained her identity and beliefs. Film Chani is way better than book Chani and whatever happens next will feel much more earned.
Paul says she will understand with time so maybe it will still play out as in the books after some time
They just need some additional love drama for the next film, that's all it is. I too am disappointed it didn't play out like the books.
@writerchick94 her "identity" should be determined by the author of the book not your personal PC world view...
@@samuelgonzalez1392 her identity in the book was warrior and advocate for her people. Sorry your reading comprehension is so low.
Think her character falls really short in the movie don’t know why they had to girl boss chani she had a huge roll in the book but it’s nothing like the movie
I haven't seen the second one yet so I'm talking off Only what I've heard. But it seemed to me from interviews that they were concerned with the lack of a hero. Paul is not a hero. So who does the audience want to succeed? No one? That sucks. (I personally have no problem with not having a hero I just think the average viewer NEEDS someone to root for)
@@Honeymooncakebut that’s not the point of the movie.. NO ONE is a hero in the movie and that’s exactly why the author wrote the books
Sad 💔
The misogyny in these comments. People simply liked these films because it made them feel powerful as men. Anything against that ruins that male hero fantasy in your heads. Hence the misogyny c
Or maybe it just ruins a story many people grew up with and made popular for them to want a make a movie about it
Bro the more I hear about Chani the more worried I get. I hope we don't end up with the god empress of dune somehow
Oh it’s coming 😂
I was ok with her being against it in the first two thirds of the movie. Have someone there to keep him grounded
BUT once it got to the point where he drank the water and she was openly hostile to him was ridiculous. Just came off as a hater. Like you trust him. Hes doing good for you and your people and you STILL sont want him to be the guy? Stupid. He standing up like she was gon fight him at the council...stupid. riding off salty on the worm...stupid.
Chani has the right to not believe how the eldest are believing on those legends she loved him for himself not who is he so I can understand why she's acting like this she sees him like they own him she has the right to be worried about herself and her people from outsiders like Paul
@@user-ue6wz4he9y she did initially. Doesn't make sense after they fell in love. How many times must you see something to believe it's true? At what point are you just blatantly denying the truth because you don't like it?
I don't mind chani not being the devoted follower she was in the novel but didn't make sense to drag out her hater shit into a beef leading into a battle. Kinda makes me wonder how the hell she'll be handled in Messiah after so sharp of a departure
@@VHBEnginesshe knows his mom is a Beni. She knows there ways and that they are witches/Jedi of sorts… so she’s doesn’t believe in the prophecy or at least she understands that it is not graunteed and is more of a possible future … and in fact it was the least likely future . Seeing future , coming back from death , seeing into peoples mind are all qualities of the Beni. Jes … and I’m sure Paul told her that. She knew he wasn’t a miracle worker
What Chani would or wouldn't do Seems like it should be up to the author, Not whatever politically correct world view is popular at the current time. A woman living in the year 10,191 Doesn't need to act like a "girl boss" From the year 2024.
@@amsrremix2239 she made it clear that she was worried about being oppressed by Paul and his mother. That's the basis on not wanting to believe. 'thats how they make us slaves" in the end Paul was literally forced into the situation of leading by the FREMEN. He did absolutely everything he could to avoid it until he no longer could. And she was still raging against him.
Love is based on trust. This is a relationship where she wants control over his actions. Like I initially stated I was ok with the change.....up to the point it stopped making sense. I've seen it twice now and it was a glaring issue for me on the rewatch
Same performance different role.
Woke girl boss, super annoying character that added nothing to the movie but a bad attitude. In the book she’s a warrior and calculating advisor.
Chani in the movie is a woke 21st century activist. With the same iq and range of emotions. Which, considering she is portrayed by Zendaya, whose acting range can be compared to one of a door knob, is pretty balanced.
No, it was just poorly written.
@@paintspot1509 yes. Poorly written, poorly played. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.
wait till this guy finds out what happens in dune messiah
Terrible change to what was an otherwise great movie. Also bad casting choice.
Wrong.
I hate Zendeya so much in this movie, HE'S just the WORST!
Racist , bitter and jealous
