he saw his unborn son grown up, as well as he saw his own death at the hands of dead friend that was recreated..

My wife says that anyway and she is sitting here watching it...




EDIT: Actually Dune is over and Children of Dune is on now and she is watching it also.

Small, small things.

He saw The Golden Path for humankind and what he would need to become to guide them through it. It was too much.

and just what was the Golden Path.

You see I read the books, all of them including where his son becomes a worm but i still didn't understand what the golden path was. was the point to get humanity weened from Spice?

I know something's up with his sister. Everytime she's on screen, I look down and notice something is up.

Golden path = how to save humanity from destroying itself or being destroyed by someone else imho.

Edit
insert "someone else"

Do we find out who that "someone else" is? Or is it part of the unfinished stuff from Chapterhouse? I haven't read any of the books past the original... just curious.

Not sure cause I've only read up to God Emperor of Dune. Still have to read Heretics and Chapterhouse.

Yep, she is pretty freaking hot... So is Chani and Irulan though, IMHO.

They are called the scattering.
