Dune: Part Two full-length reaction
🕑 Added 2025-04-06 15:55:01 +0000 UTCUK/Europe version is here
US version is here
If you're wondering why there are two versions for this movie/TV show, it's because of the discrepancy between the running time of PAL and NTSC. While most streaming services (Netflix, Disney+, etc) no longer use these formats, some here in the UK do - Now TV, BBC iPlayer, etc. All of this is to say that, if you find one version unsyncing from your copy of the movie/show, try the other. I've adjusted the speeds so the UK/Europe version should be PAL and the US version should sync up with everything else.

For copyright reasons, full-length reactions don't include the show or movie footage so you'll need to have your own copy to watch along with me. Ideally, you'll need two screens or two browser windows. One for the reaction, and the other for the show you're watching. Using your mobile is also viable to watch one of them.
As many different streaming services in different countries often play trailers or recaps before the show starts, the easiest way I've found to sync up footage is to find the first frame of the episode, generally right after the opening credits finish on your own copy (unless of course, the show has a cold open), then pause it. Don't worry, I show you the frame to look for at the beginning of each full-length reaction! Next, play the reaction and you'll see a countdown timer at the end of the intro and when the show is about to start. Press "play" on your copy when the timer reaches 0:00.
A small (but muted) portion of the show will stay on the screen to allow you to properly sync up your copy if you need to adjust it. The easiest way to eliminate any small discrepancies between the two is to rapidly pause and unpause the video that's ahead until both are running simultaneously.

Yes. There is a big departure from the book in this film that I didn't really like and made the film feel 'wrong'. It also compressed the timeline quite a lot. Still visually stunning and epic. It will be interesting to see where they go from here.

The third film (Dune: Messiah) is tentatively planned for December of 2026 currently. There were a few divergences from the source in this installment that have some hardcore fans divided, but I'll leave that for you to discover if you do get around to reading the books. No need to spoil anything and they may rectify some of it in the next film anyway. In the meantime, as I said after part one, I'd highly recommend checking out 'Dune: Prophecy' (the HBO series) as it's a very good look at the origins of this universe and how the Bene Gesserit sisterhood got started. Only six episodes, same quality as the films and from the same creative team, just set 10,000 years prior to the events of Dune. It was also renewed for a second season in 2026. Great reaction as always and hope you have a great week.๐
