Children of dune soundtrack - 02 - Dune messiah

[szpinak222]

I literally couldn't hold my tears when I heard this song during specific moments in the movie.

[thechief01993]

Pekin Express soundtrack also :S

[nicochueco]

@thechief01993 this soundtrack is from children of dune... if someone used it in another series or movie, that is another thing.... but this soundtrack was made by brian tyler FOR children of dune <3

[cgavin1]

man , this is perfection. I know superficially its just the same old warble. but it fit the scene so well. I've never really known music that worked so harmoniously with the direction of a production. brilliant ditty and what a great legacy to look back upon 20 years from now!

[SUPERNOVA0881]

EPIC

[antos28]

MEGA ZAJEBISTE!

[SUPERNOVA0881]

Thumbs up if u found this cuz of Oblivion Elder Scrolls 4. xD

[Varyalover]

@SUPERNOVA0881 You mean in the sheogorath one?

[SUPERNOVA0881]

@Varyalover Yep.

[UniqueGeekFreak]

@SUPERNOVA0881 huh?this theme in James Camerons Avatar? sheogorath? have i missed something :S

please tell me more about this :)

cuz i can't remember any of this theme there.But i do agree with Johnlindsey289 about some influences i.e. prophecies,outer space,language etc.

but most great movies/books are based on that sort of plots.otherwise its too simple.I've read many Fantasy books & seen lots of sci-fi stuff & there's a lot of politics going on,usually a prophecy 2 about an awaited saviour

[SUPERNOVA0881]

@UniqueGeekFreak Well in fact you have missed quite a bit. James Camerons AVATAR, was one of the top 10 movies of 2010 (I think it was 1st place). The Idea of this movie came to Cameron when he had a dream about 15 or 14 years ago. It took him about 14 years for him to make the movie. So 14 years after the dream, POOF, AVATAR is in top ten in2011! Now Sheogorath is from a game called Oblivion:Elder Scrolls 4. One of the top 10 games in 2009-2010. Its based on adventure and some other stuff. :D

[UniqueGeekFreak]

@SUPERNOVA0881 hehe thank you for the info, but i referred to the theme (music theme) maybe you meant movie theme?

yeah i've read that about his dream & most stuff about Avatar. but Sheogorath (Oblivion) i didn't know of so thanks :D

another thing which i am pretty tired of hearing is how Avatar is based on Disney's Pocahontas ( i mean it's based on real historical facts). and it's nothing new this forbidden love/friendship.We can all see in it Romeo & Juliette too and loads of movies.

[SUPERNOVA0881]

@UniqueGeekFreak No prob. :D

[sacopenapa]

I found the TV adaptation absolutely great! I whish they would make the whole series of books into a TV format... can you imagine "God Emperor"! How it would look like! I didn't mind the "staged" feel of the series... I thougth it to be aesthetic beautiful.

[Kododos]

J'adore cette musique très émouvante et triste :'(

[ilcose]

Beautiful music...beautiful serier... it touches my heart like any other film or series. Dune Messia is simply perfect....amazing soundtrack, full of tragedy and beauty. I think that this miniseries deserver much more attention. Other films are ridicoulous against children s of dune and are labeled like masterpiece -.-"

sorry for my poor english

[Aeternitis]

Definitely Dune deserves more attention, its grandeur cannot be kept only in books and mini series, it must have a full trilogy, maybe a game, something much more. Very nice song, makes me think about Paul's fate every time, combining tragedy and beauty.

[TheDeliverater]

Man this mini series is one of the best its dramatic emotional and suspenseful..... Mua'dib

[Johnlindsey289]

Awesome mini-series, better than the first one and that Lynch monstrosity. This is how to do Dune on film brilliantly and it's the greatest mini-series ever and one of those sequels that surpass the original.

[MsProudtobecanadian]

brilliant :)

[luminoxs07]

Wonderful .....! 

[CarGeekSprinter]

I really wish that Dune could get the treatment that Lord of the Rings did...the original three books were an unbelievably complex and engaging story.

[grandadpoppyable]

How can 6 volumes plus an encyclopeadia be refferred to as a trilogy?

[Aurone]

This music is fitting fo rme right now. I just finished Sandworms of Dune, completing a now decade long journey through the entire Dune universe, from the orriginal books, the prequels to the legends and now the sequels.

[slniecko35]

Children of dune- soundtrack- Dune Messiah.. Úžasné, nádhera, je v tom všetká hľbka, všetky emócie. B. Tyler je veľký talent.

[omadaron]

The "Dune" series is milestone for all science-fiction, just as "LotR"'s for fantasy. Definetely one of the greatest books I ever red, a shame it's so unlucky with superior adaptations, but "Children of Dune" mini-series were great way to go.

Oh, and sorry for my english.

[greyfox129]

@azzarbprime I agree. Cause like some screen writers say what works in book sometimes might not work in movies. And you got these stupid producers who think that the audience won't like films to be long.

[Johnlindsey289]

@greyfox129

Well Gone with the Wind was the highest grossing movie of all time originally and it was 4 hours long yet still loved, Titanic was a major hit and was 3 hours long and LOTR trilogy is still beloved and popular.

Say Greyfox do you think Dune reminds you of Avatar and Star Wars and Star Trek combined?

[greyfox129]

@Johnlindsey289 Neither Dune is freaking Dune. But of those movies I thought Titanic was garbage but that's my opinion.

[Enuf3]

@Johnlindsey289 Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Dune one of Lucas' inspirations for Star Wars?

[mezanine10]

@Enuf3 yes. many elements of star wars goes back to the dune series. some examples are: desert planet (tatooine + arrakis), royal twins (luke and leia + leto II and ghanima), jawas (wear robes with glowing eyes like the fremen), jabbas hut is described closely to leto when he is a sandworm, etc.

[Darklordlucas]

@mezanine10 Okay everything is fine, but just: JAWA'S? I mean, they were comic relief, not warriors. And in star wars, generally everyone wears robes in the desert planets. Oh and most jawa's are kinda....small? Like you could step on them and not notice.

[Johnlindsey289]

@mezanine10

Even Avatar also borrowed from the Dune series as well since Cameron is a big fan of these books and used it as one of his inspirations. There's a young man who goes to an exotic new planet to work for a corporation, gets lost in the wilds, joins up with an alien tribe, goes through tests of manhood including taming a beast, becomes one of the people including their leader and fights against a corporation that exploits a substance

[SUPERNOVA0881]

@Johnlindsey289 Yep. I just remembered I heard this theme in the movie Avatar. And I gotta say...Cameron rocks. :P

[Johnlindsey289]

@azzarbprime

Besides Avatar is the same thing as Dune already as was Star Wars if you think about it since both Avatar and Dune are similar to Frank Herbert's book.

[Johnlindsey289]

Brilliant mini-series this is and the first was quite good! these books rock the house since i was 12 in 93 and i've been obsessed with Sci-fi my life. These books are very influential as they inspired Star Wars, Matrix, Avatar, Stargate, Dark Crystal, Fifth Element, Dark City, Serenity, Star Trek movies and more.

[Johnlindsey289]

@azzarbprime

The first Dune movie should be done as 3 or 4 parts of the first book to do it justice!

[w4rfr05t]

I like Alec Newman's portrayal of Paul/Muad'Dib, but I absolutely loved him as the Preacher. His delivery was pitch-perfect.

[KraalMornan]

@azzarbprime Honestly, the miniseries was the best they could do. Dune has so many background forces moving the universe. Philosophies, ways of thinking, social and political groups, that couldn't be presented on screen. I really love this show, but I don't think it can get better than this. A trilogy would suck anyway, not enough screen time to properly show the action and chracter developemnt as well. But I do hope the rest of the books will be made into one or more miniseriesonce.

[MuzeecX]

@KraalMornan

Well just look at the Lord of the Rings. There is enough material in there to fill more than 3 movies but Peter Jackson had to condense it with great success.

[KraalMornan]

@MuzeecX That's true, but he left out my favorite parts of the book (Tom Bombadil and the Cleansing of the Shire - that latter is the second half of the third volume, Return of the King by the way, a serious amount of pages).

[sarek63]

i wish they would have kept adapting the books into minseries'

[1towatchvids]

love the movie, the music fits perfectly

[workingclassbum]

@azzarbprime mmm easier said than done, Dune is one of those projects that seems to me so much can be done wrong and so little right. Someone's going to have to take a big risk to get it done and movie executives aren't to keen on taking risks these days given the economy.

[workingclassbum]

@azzarbprime I don't think it would work to be honest. Not enough room in one film to do Dune justice, not enough action in Dune Messiah to keep a modern audience interested and the ending of Children of Dune is pretty dark. Not to mention how complex the ideas are. I'd love to see it happen but I'm not sure if it would work but then again I guess thats what ppl said about lotr's before it was done.

[TheImperialElite73]

such a beautiful song and I absolutely love the Dune series

[Johnlindsey289]

Awesome movie, superior to the first movie who agrees?

[metabog]

This is the best TV miniseries ever with the best music.

[elijahinky]

this brought me to tears

[darioboyslim]

One word. Epic

[watermolen11]

prachtige muziek die ik nog ken van de serie Peking Express een waanzinnige overlevings toch door de vele gebieden op aarde

[metabog]

@azzarbprime I don't see a point in doing any more remakes since this miniseries is 100% amazing. A movie would have to condense all this stuff into a shorter running time.

[misscristy87]

OMG, I love this movie

[pankajsaksena1984]

This is pure sadness! I love it!

[urdeathskiss]

this song.... makes me cry... its so beautiful. The love between Paul and Chani is.... amazing and just as beautiful. <3 DUNE TRILOGY

[munnonockspirit]

@azzarbprime I agree, though it's an exceedingly complex story and might take more than three movies for just the first three books to do it justice!!!

[neverquestionyoda]

@azzarbprime Agreed. I'd keep the director and composer of Children of Dune though.

[TheGnostic11]

Very nice

[LaiPt]

beautiful

[WorldWideWerner]

This theme sounds a lot like Howard Shores 'The Breaking of the Fellowship'. So if you like this one, check the LotR "version" as well!

[Hosea22]

Bene Gesserit vs. Bene Tleilaxu

Which do you ultimately prefer more???

[ladygaga2801]

very nice!

[Reclusiarch]

Very inspiring!

[wasteofspace1234]

I bet the movies and books made alot of fundamental muslims pretty mad. It has alot of similarities, to their history.

[maxilos1987]

im not being rude or anything but they seem to get annoyed by pretty much everything.

on topic tho, what a great song

[premiedusten]

*speechless*

[JulioMarco]

@TheZorch

His sister had her mind took over by the persona of her grandfather, the Baron Harkonen (I guess hers was the worst of the tragedies...) :P

[TheZorch]

Paul's life was one of tragedy, yet he was what was needed at the time. He wasn't the super being the sisterhood wanted, he was more. Humanity was stagnating and they needed a good hard swift kick in the pants to get them moving again. In a way his whole family saw tragedy. His sister was the Abomination, his son became an immortal human/worm hybrid. Don't remember what happened to the daughter though. The Dune series was indeed really good because of these nuances.

[Soundtrackfreak10]

all good stories need a tradgedy...

[sega1741]

stunning and hauntingly gorgeous melody!

[marculett]

incredible! i read all the Dune books, and yeah, is the greatest SCI-FI book ever write! it was a genius, it was a man who read so precise the far future of humanity... i will always have in my mind and heart his books!

[home10flys]

amazing song .......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Aurone]

I always struggled with Children of Dune both the book and the Mini-Series. Alia was my absolute Favorite character in all the series and well...we know what happened.

[greyfox129]

I did not enjoy the version that hit theaters cause to be honest the Dune saga has tomuch that it's only ment to be a mini series and man did they get the story right. they changed some parts but it's been very faithful at least I'm pissed that they are going to make another remake to the horrible 80's version.

[Aljeron100]

I disagree... while the universe of Dune might have a lot of content in it, I think it's still possible for it to become a good movie... I mean just look at Lord of the Rings.

[greyfox129]

@Aljeron100 Sorry for the late reply. You are right I just hope the director is a fan of the film cause back in the 80's they gave it to who ever wanted to do it. Now most of the time the studios pick director's who is either a fan or is smart enough to study the origins.

[TheZorch]

I'm hoping they'll get that one right this time. They can look at the SyFy (hate that name) mini-series as templates. Now if they got Peter Jackson to translate the book or books to a movie or two or three I would welcome it. He did an incredible job translating LOTR into three films, a task which was not easy in the slightest. Dune is to science fiction what Tolkein's LOTR was to fantasy.

[Battleloser]

@TheZorch

Jackson had the right stuff for the artistic interpretation. However, when it came to the technical stuff LOTR was a let down. I don't think his style were serve Dune very well.

[xoraisse]

It is actually much, much more. For as much as I enjoyed LOTR back when no one knew what it was, Dune is 100x more complex, deeper, more phylosophical, more...human. And so much more...real. The Dune Novels by Frank Herbert (do NOT mistake him for his son) are the THE masterpiece of creative writing of the 20th century. Sooner or later, the much due credit will be given to Frank Herbert, pretty much the same way Tolkien finally has the recognition he deserved a long time ago.

[TheWrestlerNation]

When you say its much more real, thats not really the point because both are fantasy

[sidious76]

@TheWrestlerNation

Yes both are fantasy, but everything in Dune is theoretically possible. Whether its; man colonising space, incredible narcotics (spice) being found on planet(s), folding space(bending space-time to create wormholes,) primitive aliens such as the worms being found on other worlds or even a return to the feudal system of government - its all possible. Especially 15,000 years from now, which is when Dune is based. Orcs, Elves, Balrogs, Wizards and magic rings are fairy tales.

[sidious76]

@TheWrestlerNation

I like quality fantasy though. LOTR is a great trilogy of books and the films Peter Jackson made were stunning. Robert Jordan's 'Wheel of Time' saga is the only other fantasy work i've read that measures up to Tolkien. I understand the point that was being made though, and i think it was also meant as with regard to the parallels of what is going on in the world today. Spice=Oil, Arrakis=Iraq/middle east, Imperium=Anglosphere/USA&Brita­in, Landsraad=Europe, Fremen=Arabs etc.

[xoraisse]

Perhaps you didnt read the novels as deeply as most of us Dune geeks :) The "situation" in the novels as a lot o paralels with today's world.

[Marshmallowmann]

@TheWrestlerNation

dune is science fiction btw.

[TheWrestlerNation]

wat eva

[endkashika]

@xoraisse couldn't agree more :D

[Johnlindsey289]

@greyfox129

Children of Dune is better than both the 1984 monstrosity and first mini-series, i'm sure the movie will be 3 or 4 parts similar to LOTR.

[greyfox129]

@Johnlindsey289 God you know what I really hope so cause the 1984 one really gutted the story. I liked the 1st mini series alot but yeah Children of dune was better.

[GrandElemental]

Awesome! <3

[MissLiMaBo]

AMAZING!

[sarek63]

i love this track.

[mmakarin]

Love this soundtrack...Love Dune series. Herbert was a genius, and the director of the series is good to

[Johnlindsey289]

@mmakarin

Most agree, i can't wait for the upcoming big screen 4-part Dune movei coming up, will it be as epic as LOTR? and if you like Dune the novels and mini-series with sequel, i recommend these similar movies with DUne-esque qualities: The Matrix, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, The Fifth Element, Avatar, Dark City, The Dark Crystal, Serenity, Riddick, and Stargate, seen those?
