The dialogue doesn't contradict. The sandworms are attracted to rhythmic noses. The line about how the shields throw the worms into a killing frenzy speaks for itself. Your chances of being killed by a sandworm simply increase drastically. I haven't read the books. That's simply how I interrupted the lines in the movie.

Quite disappointing editing breakdown. I mean, apart from the Paul trippy close-up intercut with itself, and the Josh Brolin jump cut, you're not talking about the editing, you're just explaining the purpose of the script, which is already pretty explicit in that scene. You're spending so many minutes rephrasing what the characters are already telling, just to go to the conclusion that "this is set up", "this is more set up", "this is the surprise". You could have done that with the script, you did not need the movie and the shots. I also don't get why you're using the black and white trick, because Walker says it's for him to get a fresh view on a scene that he probably has seen hundreds of times, which is not our case. We don't need a "fresh" view, we need a deeper one, we need to understand why this shot goes after this one, we need to understand why Villeneuve decided to shot like this, how he has built the scene to give life to the worm. You're showing every cut but you make nothing out of them, you're just telling us what the writers had in mind when they wrote the dialogs and the scenes, but what about the editing ? I have no problem with you analyzing the scene through a narrative prism, if this is what you're selling us. But you're selling edit insights, and there's none. Understanding the purpose of the outline of the narrative is not something that will make you a better editor, it is something that is REQUIRED to be an editor, just so you can speak the same language with the director. But what an editor can add to the narrative, to the shots, to the story, to the director, how he can serve his vision, how his editing can serve the narrative already built by the dialogs and the outline of the scenes, THAT is interesting and needs to be broken down. Let's talk about the sound, the evolution of the music, its purpose, let's talk about Liet's voice over the shot of Paul flying over the worm, how it connects many layers of the story into a bigger one.... Let's talk about editing !

Paul's line to Gurney as Gurney arrives ("I recognize your footsteps old man") is a throwback to their training fight, and so it suggests Paul, while in the trance / dream state is still lucid. So... the jump cut suggests one strange aspect of Paul's experience of time, the line-reading suggests another, and the throwback, a third.

So spicy. Love the black & white flip technique.
Also I trust you used Resolve’s edit cut detection tool for making all those clip splits. 😆

Thanks for this breakdown! To be fair, flipping the image is the oldest trick in the graphic design playbook. Personally, I think Villeneuve's adaptation is about as good as we can expect, his sense of scale is wonderful. But some of the acting is clumsy (Keynes, for example), he lacks the imperial language from the book (language that Lynch appreciated), and the last shot in the film should have been the body of the man Paul killed (maybe a Lawrence of Arabia rip-off, but still a foretaste of what is to come). Thanks again!

I took the sheild thing with the worms as it makes the worms angry and attracts more of them, so it just generally isn’t a good idea because without the shield the passive worm is easier to handle.

I loved it. That said, what took me out of it was the lack of consistency in the technologies. They have personal levitation devices and they have giant starships that have no visible means of levitation yet the sand crawlers require ballons? They need flapping wings on ornithopters? Weird

Great video. I find it fascinating that Sven clearly doesn't understand the plot details in the shots as he keeps guessing what bits of dialog mean. I'm sure he watched the film but he didn't parse the entire film for content or story. He analyzes the clip from an editing perspective.

What an awesome review...really inlighting!

I saw an interview with Joe Walker, and he said the establishing shot of the transport working properly wasn't even created until after they'd edited the shot of the transport not working properly. Then he and Denis were scrambling to get it made. Even the best directors.... LOL

Joe Walker is one of my favorite editors, the behind the scenes for Arrival is really cool. The creative editing choices he makes are some of my favorite in big budget movies.

Woah, that is a crazy way to do that. I need to try.

Nice nice nice

Amazing breakdown loved it - Never noticed some of the cuts while watching

I'm disappointed. The main reason Moadeeb, win the war, is there sound weapon technology. Its completely left out. Infact none seem to use a weapon
|
Here again, your way or explaining how the story is presented is a great test to apply over any video a person is editing.
Like watching with the sound muted so to look for inconsistencies......numbing the senses on purpose to bring out overlooked details.
Most cool. tHanks for the videos.

Sven bitte video über zone of interest! ❤️

It's funny how you say that the set up was important to establish how all of this works, and looking back at it now, it 100% makes perfect sense. But when I watched that sequence for the first time, I didn't even connect that first harvester to the one later, and got what went wrong from the scene at 11:02, because they lingered on the googles shot. For me, "The set up shot" just felt like one of those establishing shots of "the spice business". 😁
