  1. i guess so, the honored matres were just kind of conquering planets left and right while the bene gessiet fought them.
  2. Spoilers? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . some of these questions may have been asked before, and may help other people who are also confused!? 1) In dune the harkonnen controlled dune but still stayed on giedi prime, but when the duke was given dune he left caladan and moved to dune?! Why, was it because he wanted to show that he was going to take charge and he wanted to be there to over see things? 2) Exactly how did the fremen fight the sardukar on Dune? with lasguns, melee weapons, projectiles, artillery? what weapons did each side have and use. I know the fremen used sandworms to devour the sardukar and they used atomics on the shield wall. 3)the honored matres were a mixture of fish speakers and bene gesserit from the scattering right? 4) what the hell happend at the end of chapterhouse: dune? this is what i read, murbella became both mother superior and great honored matre. she was going to either combine their forces of assimilate remainng HM into the bene gesserit (clear that up). then for some reason duncan uses foldspace and takes the no-ship into some unspecified space along with, sheeana, some worms, the rabbi and company, and scytale along with his nullentropy tube.then some face dancers talk about how they can collect enough personas to become inpependant of thier masters.? am i correct? 5) (chapterhouse) what was all that about duncan seeing an old couple in his mind or somthing what was that? 6)what was that sianoq thing in god emperor, was it some sort of bonding with leto and his fish speakers? explain plz 7) in god emperor it says that part of this book has appeared in the publication of playboy? why would playboy publish dune. and what part did they publish? 8) in hod and chapter the benegesserit has an army commanded by teg. is it an official army of the benegesserit or just maniplated soldiers from other planets under thier control. and was it a male or female/male army. did the bene gesserit themselves fight? and the HM army was all female? Thank You for answering my Q's
  3. nah we cant reall know whats going to happen in the future. compare todays christianity to that of 500 years ago
  4. so it must be dead. and you don't need all of the body just a few cells. becuase the tlieaxu used their "tanks" to grow the rest of it.
  5. then whats the difference between a clone and a ghola?
  6. heres one of the book cover too http://dune.ghanima.org/imgs/fl_dunef.jpg
  7. whoops ??? i dunno what happend to it. but it was a larger poster of the the movie. use theese links: http://us.imdb.com/Title?0087130 http://us.imdb.com/Posters?0087130
  8. WHO CARES WHAT THE MOST TOLERANT RELIOGEN IS. thats what being tolerant means not caring what other people believe and letting them do it. all am saying is that i dont like people who say that their way is the best. anyway half the world dosen't even use the bc ad calender: jewish, muslim, and all those asian and african calendars.
  9. zensunni? is that a mixture of ZEN buddism and SUNNI islam? thats a wierd combo. and in one of the books the tlieaxu are called sufi which is another form of islam.

  11. Whoa christianity the most tolerant and "s"ivilized? ::) I don't know about that. :'( and I try not to put the dune books into real life context, I seriously doubt 25,000 years from now will in any way resemble dune. we can't even predict what 500 years from know will look like. So it really dosen't matter what year it is unless you are trying to calculate peoples ages, how long ago the bjihad was etc.

  13. Me i bought dune 2 How do you suggest people get into dune? most people start reading it, get confused and give up. Its as if there was a book before it that you forgot to read. Many people are discouraged. i just picked it up along the way. There were things i didnt get untill i read children of dune.
  14. arent laser discs those HUGE cd's as big as frisbees
  15. one of the writers on snl must be a dune fan.

But it was the very first sketch and vp dick cheney was talking to gwbush about world leaders and he said so and so is from yemen and gwb said "dont you mean fremen" and dickcheny goes "no thats from the science fiction novel dune" it was on last night and kirsten dunst was the guest, she was promoting spider man

  24. "'When Isaac Asimov unwisely sought to revise and extend his Foundation trilogy to incorporate his Robot series, he ran into exactly this problem. No one could do a better job than Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson, but they face the impossible task of a painter assigned to create a "prequel" to the Mona Lisa.'
