[QUOTE="Hatmatter, post: 9490093, member: 75077"] Wow, I hope you are right! What makes you view Chani's character in this way? Why did she leave him right after his proposal? Why was her departure edited such that it was made to appear connected to her being upset with the proposal? Even then, even if Chani is now an opponent to Atreides, that is a major change to Chani from the book and still would be exhibit A in the argument that Villeneuve was captive to the bad idea that he can do better than Herbert...but, despite that, I am not seeing what you are claiming. It's a great interpretation, but where is the evidence in the final minutes of the film? How many professional critics discuss issues of adaption in their reviews? I have read a fair number of the [I]Part Two[/I] reviews; usually the importance of changes from the book are left to nerds like myself and Deset Gled. I'd love to read a professional review that affirms that Chani's departure and the decision to conclude the film with that departure is not an elevation of romantic pique that was not in the book. Heck, are there any professional reviews that interpret Chani as now an embodiment of resistance to Atreides's megalomania? [/QUOTE]
