Current Events > Dune 2: Why is it such a big deal that *** is preggo when *** happens?

(+) Yeah! (+)

bro did you watch the movie after that point

Yea. The unborn baby talks to the mom. So what?

It would make more sense if you saw his sister. She is basically born with the full abilities Paul develops over years.

Picture a kid so small it cant even form words correctly that already has the knowledge of an adult and the abilities of a Bene Gesserit.

Its like the rules vampires had about turning children in the Anne Rice books.

Whats wrong with that? Seems like thats a good way to get the sisterhood more powerful, faster. I assume with the knowledge of an adult, the child wont have child-like tendencies (like unable to control emotions), so theres like no negative here.

Getting all the benefits without having to do any of the work. That couldnt possibly be bad.

I mean the mother became omnipresent and able to see the future and stuff by just drinking that worm liquid and didnt work up her way to get to that point she was just in the right place at the right time.

Paul also got his voice and omnipresence by drinking that worm liquid too, and didnt do any work either; he just assumed he can survive since he has main character syndrome, even though its been said no man can survive.

These Dune movies sound like real stinkers. Glad I skipped.

They're stellar pieces of media and should absolutely not be missed by anyone who claims to be a science fiction fan.

@WarfireX

You guys said the movie literally has talking babies.

wow. this is a post that exists.

Spice enhancement triggers ancestral memories and fast forwards development so she's basically given a conscious mind (and beyond) before she's born. Ancestral memories are dangerous if your personality and sense of self are weak. She hasn't been born yet so the memories and influences could drive her mad.

When a foetus is exposed to ancestral memories, they have no self to maintain their own personality because they haven't had the chance to develop one yet.

This leads to the possibility of an ancestor personality taking over.

I didnt feel like the Dune universe gives a shit about unborn babies tbh

I don't know how to do spoiler tag otherwise I would post

so the deal is that you need a strong will or the will of your evil ancestors will take you over.

Jessica's daughter doesn't even have a personality, so when the child gets all the memories it's basically already obliterated. The evil women in her bloodline will manifest as her personality.
