No, Villeneuve was trying to provide an audience surrogate for people to realize that Paul isn't actually a hero.  That's what he explicitly said

“A bit”? The movie ends with Chani rejecting Paul and riding away on a sandworm.

You can’t exactly have a significant chunk of the plot of Dune: Messiah if the two of them aren’t together.  

Mostly because those words aren't in their vocabulary 

You know what was a great car combat game?

I'm just waiting for someone to option The Art of Prophecy so she can star in it

I mean, you forgot about the possibility of using JATO rockets

Did these numbers include air resistance?

“The Fire Nation represents South East Asia, so Thailand and the Philippines. The Earth Kingdom was countries like China, Japan, Korea, and the Indian subcontinent.”

1) get bought out for $1.3 billion

You are *still* putting tens of thousands of objects in space. The problem of the constellation approach is in the sheer quantity. Even a 0.7% failure rate becomes problematic if you multiply by a large enough number

It’s not that the loot didn’t make you feel like you were improving, it was that there wasn’t any of it.

I think the problem is that people follow trends because it’s impossible to predict the “next big thing” using focus groups or statistics before it happens

“Wow, seems like the study, according to your own numbers, is actually reasonable in using 50% as an EV”

The major caveat in that study, however, is that it looked at people given company cars by their employer, as opposed to people who purchased the cars themselves.

So you didn’t read my post

Not tens, but with my old Matrix I ended up having to spend over a grand on a water pump, alternator, and a never-solved cylinder misfire issue in less than 6 months. According to my (non-dealer) mechanic, the next step in the TSB for that engine code was going to cost over $1,500 and wasn’t guaranteed to solve it.

“One caveat in the study is the ACEEE assumes Prius Prime owners were using its all-electric range for a “little over 50 percent of their driving.” One expert disagrees with the findings, as the WaPo reports, saying real-world use might undercut the data.”

They still have all the problems of an ICE car, because they still contain an internal combustion engine. That said, those components are used less frequently than those on an ICE-only car.

The Shayamalan Plot Twist will be that there isn’t one, because Ishana Shayamalan hates them.  

You can’t really pause the game except by opening up the inventory or menus. So if you want to, say, plan the layout of where you are going to plant your crops, or figure out the best configuration for sprinklers, you can only do it in real time.
