All for less than $15 PER YEAR! Not per month, PER YEAR! — People have been asking us to make a video about Dune for ages, and for the longest time I really couldn’t see what all the fuss was about. It just seemed like another pseudo-space-opera on another dusty planet with people in the future using swords for some dumb reason. But now that I’ve read it? I can see why people love this story. And it’s a shame they don’t explain it when they talk about it. So let me tell you the version of the story that I love so much, without all the crazy, distracting bells and whistles. ▬▬▬▬ Credit/Attributions ▬▬▬▬ For a complete list of all sources used in all videos, please visit our Comprehensive Content Sources document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HFR3ck0NhdUchKM0atkKsZT4yl9xiY3-7FVELBhY89U/edit#bookmark=id.1iovdzrus8rm Additional Music by Epidemic Sound: http://epidemicsound.com ▬▬▬▬ What is Tale Foundry? ▬▬▬▬ If fiction were a material, we would be its manufacturing plant.
