If I were somehow forced to work for the Harkonnens, I would simply make sure I was never standing within arm+blade length of any of them. If feels like more of their staff would have picked up on that...

Villeneuve is good as hell at making explosions. The Giedi Prime goop fireworks made me unreasonably happy. The entire second half moved too quickly and a lot of scenes didn't have enough time to breathe. Movie good.

The Harkonnen and Atreides battle armour looks goofy in these movies but the rest of the costumes are sick. I want more big hats with veils for the Reverend Mothers.

It is kinda funny that the Harkonnen troops look a lot like the Sardukar in Lynch Dune but a) slightly less silly b) more in keeping with the aesthetic as a whole

The climate controlled armor suits the Harkonnens had were pretty sweet, but I do agree that Atreides armor in the first movie did seem pretty generic.

Did we ever figure out who or what that weird creature was that the Harkonnen Baron was keeping in the first movie? I wanted answers about that thing and was hoping I would get them. What was Rautha's deal, he ate people or something? He had some robot wives that ate people? That whole bit confused me.

Turns out that if you make interesting, thoughtful, deep, richly-inspired, exciting and unique movies, people will go to them! Now here's the Kraven the Hunter trailer.

fishing with the fam posted:
To be fair to Villeneuve the last third of Dune has been described as "Frank's editor tells him he needs to wrap things up", but yeah I agree this is another Dune movie that felt like I could've sat through another 30-45 minutes with no problems besides my bladder being slammed by the Hans Zimmer's doom siren. Watching this at home on tv is going to suck so hard compared to the theatre experience without that.

One thing I liked was the the little character moment shown before the ultimate duels of each film. Before the Jamis duel, Paul responds to his opponent's "May your blade chip and shatter" with the Atredes salute. Before the Feyd-Rautha duel, Mau'Dib offers the same "May your blade..." first and we learn a little something about Feyd-Rautha when he returns it enthusiastically in kind, seeming to savor the curse. Also in both duels, the Fremen fighter is "defeated" twice before the duel is decided, not sure what to make of that thematically but I'm a big believer nothing ends up on screen on accident.

What do you do if you get where you want to go and the worms not tired yet. Just drive in circles?
