Fuschia tude posted:There's also a semi-interesting appendix at the end of the first novel that goes into the ecumenical council that created this all-encompassing religion for space-age humanity. Kinda lol that it's almost literally the amalgamated church from Futurama. And of course, given Dune's age and influence, it's more likely the inspiration for such. Though the OCB is apparently meant to be as universal a holy text as possible; not necessarily a religion. Also, one of the real funny notes is how utterly disastrous its first introduction to the Emperor was for various reasons, and we're not at all told how it somehow went from that to being a state religion. (Though strikes me as a riff on how Christianity went from being persecuted by the Roman Empire to being its state religion)

Been a long time simce reading the books, and I wonder what type of weapons are used in the book/film? I remember there are knives and swords, and the flying ornithopters but did the houses' infantry have some sort of rifles/muskets/laser guns? I played the 90's Dune 2 pc game too but I doubt it was canon..

"maula pistols" like the one that Paul ganks from a Fremen during the fight which Stilgar takes back after.

They also have antique gunpowder artillery they bust out as a surprise, though that never makes it into the adaptations

They didn't specify how antique the artillery was. The explosives used in the movie could be antique relative to the date of the attack. I don't recall the book saying it was WWII vintage artillery or anything. But the point of them was to collapse the caves that the Atreides soldiers were hiding in, right? Seeing a scene like the stair scene, but with nowhere to drop troops behind, so just collapsing the cave instead, would have been interesting imo.
