The color palette implies this was filmed in Mexico.

It's the only place in the world with desert

The people smuggler Pablo Atriedes will lead them to paradise (accross the US border)

With the lights out it's less dangerous.

Here we are now. Give the spice to us.

First out-loud laugh of the day. Thanks!

Funny how the second verse works as it is for Dune:

I'm worse at what I do best

And for this gift I feel blessed

Our little group it's always been

And always will until the end

Smells Like Spice Melange

Load up on spice, bring your crysknives

It’s fun to ride worms in the night

Our messiah, should be self-assured

Oh no, I know a Bene Gesserit word

Muad’Dib, Muad’Dib, Muad’Dib, how low

Muad’Dib, Muad’Dib, Muad’Dib, how low

Muad’Dib, Muad’Dib, Muad’Dib, how low

Muad’Dib, Muad’Dib, Muad’Dib.

With the shields up, it’s less dangerous

Here we are now, will you lead us?

I feel spice drunk, and Jihad-ious

Here we are now, will you lead us?

A Sardaukar, a Navigator

An Atreides, my God Emperor, yeah

…

That's pretty darned good. Nice job.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Thanks, it took longer than I would admit, especially the formatting that somehow really sucks from phone

Great lyrics

That's Breaking Bad, you can't fool us so easily.

Oh yeah smells like spice spirit

not brown enough

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Maybe some more yellow?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Should have made the movie increasingly blue towards the end, because of the spice turning our eyes blue.

Looks like Mexico to me.

My favorite planet

The spice is Chili...

Denis Villeneuve is an amazing director. The cinematography, soundtrack, and pacing of his movies are beautiful. If you haven't seen Blade Runner 2049, watch that next. It's probably the most visually stunning movie I've ever seen.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

Agree

Have you seen the 5th element? It's live action cartoon ish ( before the 1st spider man and the whole marvel trend)

Then there's obviously the old blade runner

And on the non fiction, colourful side, there's Baraka. No plot, just video shorts of cool looking nature and people.

Twist: source a pic of the Weird Al parody video instead.
