I'm pretty sure "Spice Melange" is trolling. Idk how someone would understand and enjoy the plot of Dune (assuming the book because IDK if they even used that term in the movies) with this poor of an understanding of how trade works.
One of the book details not carried through to the movie is the Baron's plan to put Rabban in charge initially to fuck shit up and make everybody hate him, and then hand Arrakis over to Feyd-Rautha who would seem like a savior since he (supposedly) wouldn't be as big of a dick as Rabban. Trump-to-Vance may have a similar arc.
There is a whole SouthPark episode about Tom Bradys poop where they repetitively use the term.
They might be trolling, but right wingers are notoriously bad a media literacy.
They definitely used the term in the Lynch movie, but if you can follow that plot you may be even smarter than a reader of the book heh
The cheatsheets they handed out in theaters in 1984 helped lol.
That's awesome, I want to see one of these cheatsheets now
Edit: I just found a pic of one of the cheatsheets online and it was a little underwhelming, but I still love that they made it.
I should take a look at it. When I saw the movie in theaters, I contemptuously threw mine away without looking at it as I'd read all the books.
