the thing i found weird about the worm flaps is how they open in the “wrong” direction
previous iterations seemed more logical to me where flaps overlap each other in a way that the one ahead protects the one behind, so you can’t open a flap and expose it to headwind
not against it, just surprised

as long as no one shows up from a parallel universe, we should be ok

i’d assume (based on this) that they’ll do sg similar to the syfy miniseries - rush through messiah and do children as well.

fingers crossed 😅

i guess they’ll follow a similar pacing as the syfy miniseries - third for messiah, two thirds for children

yeah for sure they’re mechanical like that. wouldn’t make sense to include a power source when every one gets eaten

omg YES

absolutely. so hence my brain fart, that there has to be at least a few minutes of thumping inside the worm before it either gets destroyed or…
wait. another brainfart: thumper shaped kitchen timers. i think it could be the hit of the holiday season

i think it’s only fiery at the back end but yeah for sure the mass would absorb much of the sound.
still, funny to think about tick-tock the sandworm

so here’s a brainfart: when a worm swallows a thumper, does it keep ticking like captain hook’s crocodile?
are other worms attracted to the one with the thumper in its belly? would they attack?

true. true. nitpicking deflected. but also:
(this is my absolute favorite scene of the 1984 movie)

it does make sense and I totally hope this was DV's intention, he just didn't want to (over)explain it
comment in response to

btw just a bit of nitpicking: aren't worms super territorial? so wouldn't the same old man of the desert show up every time in a given region?
there should be no surprise about which worm shows up when called. Fremen should be more like 'ah yeah, totally forgot Spots lives south of Habbanya Erg'

I like your theory about tuning that thumper to a big one.
mine so far was that tuning just means winding it up. I imagine it has a spring of sorts inside - wouldn't make sense to add a power source.

the first word an NPC says to you is Adab (the demanding memory that comes upon you of itself), then we get the cutest cielago bat, cut through moisture seals, get micro-sandwich fabrics, and our fit gets called maula (slave)
Adab was a bit weird, but the rest is on point

in the span of 30 sec, the intro cinematic manages to give us terminator skulls from the machine wars, then decides to call the Bene Gesserit mystical and calls the Lady Jessica a consort instead of a concubine.
having said that, once you get control of the character, things change to the better
