@nerd_cookies what do you think about the possibility of Chani being one of the conspirators and her role being to capture a sandworm? The nerdist trailer analysis suggests this, and it is pretty convincing evidence imo.
@heyitsMattCaron Do you have any inside info since legendary owns nerdist? The Chani stealing sandworm idea makes a lot of sense based on the trailer , as much as I hate it
@muaddibstyle Arrakis isn’t earth. They don’t have internet or outside sources of information. At the end of the day, it’s not a huge deal to me, as long as messiah is done well and that Paul and Chani ultimately reconcile
@nerd_cookies betrayal lurks in every shadow. Haunted by visions of Imperial collapse and the reappearance of his long-lost love, Paul is drawn into a sweeping conspiracy, with Chani at the heart of its unfolding mystery. As rebellion brews and enemies close in, Paul must confront (2/3)
@muaddibstyle All the Fremen being totally manipulated except Chani and her friend really strains credulity. I understand why they did it thematically (since we can’t see internal dialogue in movie)- I just don’t think it makes logical sense for Chani to be immune from BG manipulation.
@muaddibstyle It is hard because the Bene Gesserit did such a good job with their manipulation. Chani is not special, there is no reason why she should have this additional knowledge, or why any of the Fremen should. It weakens the BG and hurts the internal logic of the story
@mzemek It’s a shame that swiatek and Sabalenka didn’t have a better rivalry. They were twice a point away from meeting in a slam final. It’s just tough to have a great rivalry when they meet so infrequently in slams
