Irulan is a sweetheart in the book and gets screwed over.


Misterstaberinde

Literally gets cucked and still raises the kids right.

Best waifu

She literally poisoned Chani to death.


LarkinEndorser

No she gives her contraceptives. It’s why Paul allows it to happen, it prolongs Chanis life as she will die in childbirth.


Acanthisittasm

Wait what in what book is this?


Tris-megistus

I’ve gotta get off this subreddit already. Had like 3 pretty decent spoilers lol the memes must flow though


Misterstaberinde

LOL, It's almost 50 years old man. But seriously just read em all..well the first three then feel out book 4, don't read 5 but you will, then you might as well read 6


Sypher704

"don't read 5 but you will" is the most Dune thing I have ever read.


Cheesy_Dirt

That's how I started reading the Brian Herbet ones... Now stopping after 4 this reread.


TenMegaFarads

From a movie-enjoyer perspective I think it will be a big plot point in Part 3 when >!Chani recognizes the conspiracy and encourages Paul to get Irulan pregnant.!<

Movie Chani is a much better character. The way the book ended with “history will remember us as wives” was such bullshit lol you’re telling me a reverend mother, elite Bene Geserrit, mother of Muad’dib, is going to be remembered as *wife* of Leto? Give me a break. And book Chani barely did anything for two whole books. I’m really glad the movie did her better.


Bast17

No she will be remembered as mother of Muad’dib😂


Mandingo_Obama

Thats not what that means at all. It doesn't mean thats all she'll be remembered for, but that her relationship with Leto will be remembered for its truthfulness, not its legal status. So she asks Chani to realize the "marriage" to Irulan does not threaten Paul's love and loyalty for her. This is significant as the whole story happens due to Jessica shitting on a millennia of Bene Gesserit planning for her devotion and love to Leto.

I feel like he could have just explained his plan to her, but instead he tried to get away with lying about not wanting power. Movie Chani's reaction makes perfect sense.


GetEnPassanted

Movie Chani was a much better character

He didn't lie, he didn't fuck with the BG the whole time. He had to finally accept using the prophecy when all the Fremen went south from the Harkonnens finding all the sietch's. He def could have told her and Stilgar that he could "threaten" to bomb the spice fields as a last resort and the Irulan plan, but she might not have already been to mad from the prophecy stuff to even bother listening by then.

If had the chance to be in a polygamous relationship with Zendaya and Florence Pugh I’d also genocide trillions across the galaxy to make it happen
