    The "creepy" guys are the equivalent of Picadors in a bullfight. The keep the "bulls" fighting even if they are mortally wounded.

    Summed up very short, the powers Paul have are of prediction and calculation of probabilities, by like a insane ammount, bc space drugs, so he’s really just doing very crazy math in his head…so yeah would prob make a regular dude go a little crazy and messiah like

      We figured that was going on in Paul's head. We were just jumping on his description of his abilities!

    also in dune the harkonens do think that they have killed most of the fremen in reality the fremen are just well hidden (also for some reason arrakis has no satellites idk) they are only attacking them this way because feyd is using conventional artillery which is normally outdated but is much more effective against fremen

    • @SemiStableUniverse

      Yeah, we were wondering why the Harkonnen and the emperor don't have satellites and human intelligence!

      The fremen bribe the spacing guild with spice melange to keep the skies clear of satellites. The fremen collect water and store it underground to terraform the planet. They didn't want to reveal their efforts.

    • @Twenty-Seven

      Arrakis has no satellites because of a deal between the Fremen and The Guild to not allow satellite surveillance of the planet.

    everyone basically chanting over paul because they like him so much, is kinda the whole point of dune like the religious fanaticism of the fremen blinds them completely.

    Re: the realism of the environment, Hubert did work with professionals to develop the validity of the planet.. and I THINK it was fairly accurate for the time but now.... it makes no sense and should actually be an ice planet

    • @SemiStableUniverse

      We're not that familiar with planetary science, so for us, it's hard to say if Arrakis is a realistic planet. Still, in science fiction, there are a lot of "single environment" planets, like Tatooine, Hoth, and Arrakis.

      he also wins the war because with the emperor gone the only army that rivals his is destroyed and plus he now completely controls the spice trade and can force the guild navigators to let him destroy the other houses one by one

    the status of the “genetic situation” is that paul is the final goal of the bene gesserit breeding program born a generation early on accident, the final goal basically being to create a single human who has the abilty to see into the future, which paul can.

    the reason the creepy dudes are there in the fight are because (it's not explained as clearly in the movie) it's all fake, much like real Gladiator fights, it's all for show, it's fake. It's all made to make Feyd look awesome but it's pure pantomime, Feyd's a beta narcissist psychopath so all the people he fights are slaves/captives, who've been starved, sitting in a cell, beaten, tortured and drugged and have no shields so it's essentially impossible for him to lose but to him and every other Harkkonen they're like "wooow! so strong!" but in reality it's pretty embarrassing.. it's not that he's a bad fighter, but he's pretty mid. So because it's Feyd, they still need guards to make sure he's never in any real danger (had this been a real fight with someone who hadn't been locked in a cell for 9 months, the Atreides soldier, who's a general from part 1, would have gone toe to toe with him and probably COULD beat him.) but this whole fight is a lot more layered in the books, the reason he's not drugged is far more interesting and not quite as planned as Feyd and The Baron make it out to be afterwards (a character from part 1 was cut). But as ye mentioned, the creepy dudes aren't on the same page as Feyd, they didn't know he's not drugged and that Feyd would remove his shield so they're just freaking out but Feyd doesn't want them involved because he's an ego maniac.

    • @SemiStableUniverse
      @SemiStableUniverse  27 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yeah, the whole staged gladiator fight for Feyd did feel pathetic in many respects, and I think that did come across in the movie. And Feyd taking his shield off when he knows he can't really die makes the whole thing even more pathetic.

      From wikipedia: A picador (Spanish pronunciation: [pikaˈðoɾ]; pl. picadores) is one of the pair of horse-mounted bullfighters in a Spanish-style bullfight that jab the bull with a lance.
      I don't understand why I looked that up!
