I have no skin in this game, but it's a hilarious take

Star Wars came after Dune. Star Wars is just Dune for people who listen to jizz.

[-] Cethin@lemmy.zip 28 points 5 months ago

I'm not sure if you meant Jaz and had a typo or the canonical star wars musical genres that somehow actually exists called jizz.

[-] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 51 points 5 months ago

If you've seen the original first movie(ep4) when they go into the bar and meet Solo for the first time. There's an alien band playing space jazz, canonically that space jazz is named jizz.

[-] VinesNFluff@pawb.social 20 points 5 months ago

Further funnies:

The alien playing the weird saxophone?

Their species?

Yeah it's called 'bith'

There is a Bith playing Jizz at the Star Wars Cantina.

[-] CodexArcanum@lemmy.world 15 points 5 months ago

The cantina band is Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes, but apparently Max Rebo is the true jizz-wailer (as they're canonically called).

[-] VinesNFluff@pawb.social 5 points 5 months ago

Hehe

Fingering Dan and the Module Nudes.

[-] frezik@midwest.social 6 points 5 months ago

The Clone Wars movie also had a bar where the band was playing a bit schmaltzy. Schmaltzy Jizz.

[-] drosophila 26 points 5 months ago

Star Wars is Dune for people that love WWII and samurai movies.

Dune is the Foundation series for people that like mushrooms more than math and have weird ideas about women fueled by angst over their wife divorcing them.

[-] CptEnder@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Foundation is more like for people who prefer ketamine and mushrooms.

[-] Zymii 5 points 5 months ago

I mean Foundation is for people who have no thoughts about women so maybe a slight improvement.

(Half joking?)

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Where can I find jizz music?

[-] VinesNFluff@pawb.social 58 points 5 months ago
[-] Leviathan@lemmy.world 14 points 5 months ago

Wait a minute. I listen to ~~poob~~ Tool but prefer Star Wars, what does that mean?

[-] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 19 points 5 months ago
[-] g_the_b@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

Can confirm, gay space worm

[-] Leviathan@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Nah, kid. I'm 10,000% gay.

[-] RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago

I have been looking at this for 5 minutes and still can’t decide if it’s ten or ten thousand

[-] Leviathan@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Yeah comma as a decimal people have ruined a perfectly easy to understand number system.

Star Wars is Dune for people who like original stories and like to read.

[-] daellat@lemmy.world 18 points 5 months ago

Wait a minute

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago

I don't listen to Tool, but I do like Dune and Star Wars without being a massive nerd about either. Though I respect massive nerds. Massive nerds are cool.

[-] crapwittyname@lemm.ee 12 points 5 months ago

You should probably listen to Tool.

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

Seems like it

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 13 points 5 months ago

The Force in StarWars: little microbes in your blood that are magic.

The Force in Dune: Space drugs.

[-] Stamau123@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago

Dune is star wars for people who eat magic mushrooms

[-] notaviking@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

I think Dune is closer to game of thrones, especially the politics side, Leto II (let's make him not worm like in this example) would have everyone under his thumb in Westeros, ruled over everyone

[-] funky_rodent 13 points 5 months ago

But would you still love him as a worm?

[-] notaviking@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

I would but it would make his character too overpowered, he would be bran with the all seeing eye and have superhuman strength speed like children of Dune and his burrowing, healing abilities in God emperor. He does have a great weakness with water, but even that would be trivial to him

[-] TootSweet@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

But I don't listen to Tool.

...well, not exclusively.

[-] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 6 points 5 months ago

Have you heard of wheel? They are very similar

[-] 8000gnat@reddthat.com 2 points 5 months ago
[-] lessthanluigi@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I listen to Tool, but do not watch or want to watch both Star Wars and Dune.

[-] cRazi_man@lemm.ee 7 points 5 months ago

It would be pretty unpleasant watching both Star Wars and Dune. I would recommend watching them one at a time so that you can understand them.

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 months ago

do you need to watch things die (from a great distance?)

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 7 points 5 months ago

I listen to tool, I've seen star wars, I don't really have any interest in dune.

I'm probably broken though.

[-] androogee@midwest.social 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Okay but what if I told you that a few books in, Luke Skywalker's kid becomes a sarlaac pit and won't stop resurrecting Chewbacca no matter how many times he tries to die?

... Is that appealing?

[-] BangCrash@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Put it like that and Dune is even less appealing

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 months ago

Not really.

[-] mctoasterson@reddthat.com 7 points 5 months ago
[-] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Must be why I think Dream Theater is better
