Stilgar Almost Forgets to Say It (Dune Spoilers)

Embarrassing.

[jonbaxter]

The look of a man who forgot he had water boiling on the stove with the lid on...

[randomeditguy]

Even with this being edited, the timing still feels pretty accurate when you watch the scene.

[RandomAutist]

Stilgar was the perfect comedic relief, not goofy, but just funny enough to make you take him serious and still laugh your ass off everytime he said Lisan al-Gaib

[Gigamyt]

When you develop on-set dementia at the worst time.

[tigqc]

At the Oscars next year, I hope Javier Bardem stands up and yells "Lisan al Gaib!" every time the film wins lol.

[planetpuce]

Gurney looks so relieved that he remembered

[SamizzleWren]

I love how he performs this line. It’s as if he is so deep in his mind with the shock of the prophecy. Then he comes to and realizes he needs to rile the crowd lol love stilgar 🖤

[BlackSailPass_GuitarCovers]

I like how the audience are waiting for Stilgar's permission before reacting to the fight.

[angeloveloso]

The very fact that Stilgar was so stunned in amazement that he could almost forget to declare him as "Lisan al Gaib" is even MORE reason to know that he is! As written!

[tommaw]

It’s the panicked zoom in that got me!

[marssj]

It's like everyone was waiting for Stilgar to say the line for them to cheer. All the while, Paul is bleeding from his injuries.

[Stickweasel]

When you wait until the last possible frame to nail the quicktime event.

[AnimeNut]

Brilliantly done. Love how that slow zoom-in helps hide the boomerang loop from being too obvious. And that final crash zoom was pure art.

[frsd]

Stilgar trying to resist saying "LISAN AL GAIB!!!" for more than 5 seconds.

[t.]

(What was this kid's name again?)
(Paul? No. Mahdi? Usul?)
(No, these are too short)
(Muad'dib? No. Kwisatz Haderach?)
(Nah, I think it was three words)
...
Lisan al Gaib!

[HenryM]

As soon as I saw this in the theater I just KNEW someone would make an edit of that part lol

[joshualogan]

Stilgar was f*cking hilarious 😂 Favorite character.

[metal_fusion]

He was tired from the battle and decided to have a daydream

[vogueinferno]

He’s was waiting to see if Paul had actually survived

[Petter]

There was a low chuckle in the cinema when I watched this.
Like the shock of the duel being so close kinda rattled him, but then he snaps back into rallying the fremen
