Dune: Difference between revisions

* [[You Said You Would Let Them Go]]: Yueh makes a deal with the Baron for the return of his wife, Wanna, but she was already dead. Luckily, he [[Genre Savvy|saw it coming]] and [[Taking You with Me|prepared accordingly]]. {{spoiler|That he largely fails is a stroke of terribly bad luck.}}

 

{{examples|Adaptations with their own trope pages include:}}

* ''[[Dune II]]'' (and ''Dune 2000'')

* ''[[Emperor: Battle for Dune]]''

 

=== A-Z ===

* [[Adaptation Expansion]]: The Lynch film introduced many elements that influenced later works in the Dune universe. Examples include the Mentat Mantra ("It is by will alone that I set my mind in motion" sounds similar enough to the Litany Against Fear that it feels like a line from the book, but never appeared there), the Atreides research into sound-based weaponry (again, never mentioned in the book. Sonic tanks and the like have turned up in subsequent works), heart-plugs (only briefly mentioned in the book as some sort of filtration device, but turned into something entirely more sinister by the Harkonen), the Baron Harkonen's skin conditions (never mentioned in the book, the Baron is only ever described as morbidly obese with no references made to skin problems), and many elements of the film's "look and feel" are aped by the works that followed (It's very rare to see the Emperor depicted without a neat little beard these days, for example, and Bene Gesserit are often depicted as bald).
