I can see how they got away with not saying any Arabic terms in the last movie, but come on, are they really gonna ret-con the whole vocabulary of the setting to avoid upsetting some cracker groypers?

I haven't seen the new movie, but I feel like the book deliberately invoked this in the sense of "this is pretty fucked up, right?" Does the movie do it in that sense or like a "wow, what a hero!" way?

the first movie taken on its own could be seen that way but its setting up a second movie which leans more towards the former sense
That's totally fair and I think tracks pretty well with the book.

It's foreshadowed, but it's not until he get's his Mentat powers in the desert that it becomes clear how Paul's basically manipulating the Fremen knowing that it'll destroy him and them.
