    COLONISER PORN.
    As an Arab I spit on this orientalist movie.
    And oh I guess hijab is only acceptable and cool when white women wear it.
    Dune is a racist, white saviour narrative that relies on people’s ignorance of Arab Islamic history to make itself creative. 
    A story which rips off Arab history where characters speak Arabic, no Arabs were casted. lol
    Tired of this shit I’m calling Edward Said.

    In order to understand this movie better I think everyone should keep this story in mind before watching:
    Back then when writer Natsume Soseki was still an English teacher, he once heard his students translated the line “I love you” directly into “ai shiteru.” And he said Japanese shouldn’t use such direct expression. Instead when you want to let someone knows that you love them, you should tell them, “the moon is so beautiful today, isn’t it?” (Meiji period)
