You'd think that tech would be a bit better in 2021. I suspect it's Paul's prescience seeing his jihad and not an actual battle taking place until pt. 2, so hopefully they have some time to refine it by then. It's got WH40K vibe to it too. Its probably a vision.

Automatic Slim posted:It's got WH40K vibe to it too. Its probably a vision. It might be that. My other guess is that it's a movie add-on, and it's part of when Paul escapes the initial Harkonnen/Sardaukar attack, losing the suit after meeting with Liet to escape, adding to the feeling of being completely without means. Considering the 10 mins preview, it's quite probable it is a vision since it's shown in the harvester scene that Paul has them, and they are presented on screen.

Hasselblad posted:Can someone remind me of what point in the book Paul was wearing actual armor? Never, even though armor is an excellent counter to edged weapons. It just didn't fit with Frank's aesthetic I guess. I suppose dukes and barons strutting around in armor trying to literally backstab each other doesn't sound very sci-fi.

I don't have my copy loaded onto this phone but didn't the pit fighter that Feyd fought wear physical armour?

exmachina posted:I don't have my copy loaded onto this phone but didn't the pit fighter that Feyd fought wear physical armour? Nope. They both wore personal shields (the slave's was half-sized). But as Feyd started stabbing him with barbs, he started lashing them to his own arms with fabric and using them to deflect the attacks, which threw Feyd off temporarily.

Given that poison gas is 100% a thing in universe and also turning the trigger velocity on your shield too low causes issues with getting enough oxygen to breath whilst exerting yourself? I would expect in a completely practical setting for elite fighters to wear Space Plate Armour along with their shields, with piped air supplies and similar. Of course that would probably be 100% immune to any kind of muscle powered weapon given their tech and so would lead to fewer exciting knife/sword fights and... I am not sure. People wrestling each other with cordless angle grinders? Grenades on sticks? Pouring acid on each other? I could see wrestling with angle grinders being pretty good for dramatic scenes though, villains snarling evilly as you struggle over the grinder being pushed forward a face and similar.

I'd probably watch a Cirque du Soleil adaptation of DUNE, tbh. It might be the closest thing we'll ever get to Jodorowsky's ideas.

Dune has this amazing ability to be completely bonkers while also relentlessly prodding the bit of the brain responsible for rationally analysing how things work.

mossyfisk posted:They don't wear armor for the same reason they don't use guns. They don't use guns as we know them because the shields negate that sort of poo poo, but IIRC they do have some sort of weird slow dart guns that can penetrate shields... which seems like a perfectly good reason to wear armor.

Why does everyone say “it’s probably from the jihad” when there’s a worm attacking in the background and that’s a thing that happens when they breach the shield wall Edit: I’m saying it’s a vision of the battle of the shield wall, I know that’s not going to be in part one as such. Just that it’s clearly on Dune but the jihad is offworld and people are being wrong on the internet. Ulf fucked around with this message at 02:53 on Jul 25, 2021 |

One of the Dune youtubers mentioned in passing that they had heard the grand plan was for a trilogy: Dune, Dune Prophet, Dune Messiah. Makes a ton of sense, the last time this thread talked sequel names I think I even suggested that exact breakdown. I'm still partial to the faux historical gravitas of just using years - Dune 10191 and Dune 10193. But that makes more sense for supplemental or spinoff media in other mediums.
