This is also probably off topic because I can't load the YouTube video.

I was talking about the second Dune film a little while back and saying how much I enjoy a well realised world that doesn't try to convey itself by comparing itself to ours. I get the same feeling watching Dune and Lord of the Rings as I do when I watch a film from a culture I'm not familiar with; a sense of needing to adjust to their way of storytelling.

Pairing this with what you mention which is basically extra subtle show don't tell, and you end up with something I absolutely adore, which is a story in a fully realised culture I know nothing about, that understands that the bare minimum amount of that culture I need to understand to fully enjoy the story can be the best amount to have.

I was going to say how rare this is but thinking about it, it actually isn't. Tolkien's cosmology is fully realised and vast yet I learnt basically no fluff about the world that wasn't necessary to the story. Sometimes I just had to make peace with the fact that I didn't understand the cultural context, I could only measure it's importance in the attitude of the characters.

That's the shit I love.
