Atreidies aren't perfect good guys either. In the books, they are just as scheming as the other houses, but they place honor and respect as core values, and are thus the most popular and most respected of the great houses (besides corrino).

And not long after lead the assault on grumsn were Duncan was the gero of the battle with gurney. He had a 300 body count in letos service. But gruman was his first battle battle before was a fight in house. But as s tranee with no experience he killed 28 moritani men.

[andrewcrowder]

Christopher Walken was disastrously miscast.

[Paul-zsrd]

Don't forget the Planet of the Pugs

[axelschellert]

Very well and awesome summarized, thank you 🙃👌🏻

[o-o]

Okay. Dune is amazing. The movies are the best adaptation i have ever seen. Star wars at its highest cant even begin to compare and i use to love star wars. But all this lore just makes me wanna go play some warhammer 40k

[ZombieRockful]

Atreides the good guys? When they were?

[badyoutuber]

I feel like the benejeserit lied about only women surviving the ritual

[bread_god]

House ordos home planet "sigma draconus 4" is kinda strange 🤔

[TerraZetzz]

I hope we get to see the militaries of the other Great Houses in the next film.

[stuartyablon]

House Atreides are the good guys in my mind. I cheer for them. I think a movie on book 4 of the original book series (God Emperor of Dune) would be awesome, if done well of course.
