Yueh says something like the Harkonnens have been taking her apart and putting her back together like a doll and this thing seems to be walking around on eight human hands Randal fucked around with this message at 07:42 on Oct 20, 2021 |

Just saw an advanced screening on IMAX with my cousin. It's an astonishing movie. Honestly I can only nitpick things here and there, and would have not hesitated to sit through another hour of it. Give me a fuckin extended cut, Denis. They never say the word jihad. Was kind of expecting that, but still slightly disappointing. I'm going again on Friday. So loving stoked. I'll think of more to post later but at the moment I'm kind of just blown away and overwhelmned.

Just saw the movie, it was good. One thing though, during the scene with the Harkonnens inspecting the troops on Salusa Secundus, there seems to be some kind of weird human sacrifice going on. Was there ever anything like that in the books? I don't recall but it's been way too long since I last read them

I don't recall but it's been way too long since I last read them It is a pretty effective way of conveying that The Sardukar are very fearsome fighters trained under very harsh conditions, when combined with the comments from Duncan Idaho, which I'm not sure that the books do a good job of showing.

I just finished rereading the first book, and the Sardaukar are frequently described as fanatic warriors. I think that sort of justifies showing a bit of human sacrifice. I mean, Salusa is a prison planet. Presumably they execute the weak or unworthy. The weird harkonnen creature might be a foreshadowing of something Tleilaxu-made. If the movies keep getting made, maybe we'll see if I'm right.

There's very little scholarly knowledge on any religious practices of people in the Viking age, and the few reports of blood sacrifices are from unreliable sources long after it happened, and they were written by people who we have no reason to believe would seek to portray history accurately.

There has to be some kind of awkwardly-worded Bene Gesserit axiom about "when correcting a person online, be sure that you yourself will not end up being corrected." They'd probably mention sand or willows or something.

Even though they weren't like the book I really dug the look of the Sardaukar apart from Denis not giving them long hair. Would've even fit the barbarian aesthetic he was going for. Also did a poor job of showing them being elite fighters.

Poor Sadukar only got one scene fighting regular Atreides troops, all their other fight scenes they were fighting Dunc or Gurney, or even worse for them, the Fremen.
