The Harkonnen machinery are all diseases, fantastic designs. There were even the mega gunships in the first one, I believe they were described as tumours
Tellingly, only House Harkonnen bothered with such an overly extravagant design for their harvesters. All the other harvesters are just ordinary, boxy, no-thrills crawlers. And the taller they are... The harder they fall.
In the book Paul was way more ruthless as a warlord, throwing the fremen into assaults, not counting the casualties. He even explicitly says that he uses them for his own cause (to avenge his family). In the movie he doesn't participate in the later attacks, watching from afar, assuming that he won't risk himself. He still helps them sometimes. But the book's Paul is straight up evil.
Cliffs notes run through a meat grinder don’t count as valid critiques of a complex leader whose impetus is governed by more than just by mere childish contempt as you so rashly presume to be his pre-emotive ‘Evil’.
FDR was a ruthless warlord, throwing his men away on the beaches of Normandy, laughing maniacally from his wheeled throne as he waged brutal invasions against the indigenous peoples of Japan and Germany.
How unbelievably terrifying to think about. So Paul never cared for any of these people in the end? I really hope the Great Houses can put a stop to this madness in Part Three.
Just speculation, 1. Baptism by fire to see if Paul could hold his own. 2. The gunner in this clip is in a mountain with solid rock and cover where as in the first harvester fight it was nothing but soft sand.
As said, it's because the Fremen at 0:27 actually had the solid cover of a big rock formation that they could fall back into in that situation. They could take out the valuable harvester target and then break contact, disappearing into the mountain before the gunships could do anything. In the first attack with Paul and Chani, they are all out in open desert with zero cover to protect them from the Harkonnen air support. They were forced to get up close and use the harvester itself as cover. Once they destroyed the ornithopter threat, the lasgun teams could safely give away their positions and open fire.
To me, the scene of Paul and Chani kissing immediately followed by this, it was one of my favorite moments in a cinema ever. This was true "classical" film making, the bar is raised for Blockbuster movies. For lovers of science fiction, Dune 2 was a grand moment.
Definitely some loose nods to Lawrence of Arabia: ruclips.net/video/sxMmewpfoCw/видео.html You can also notice some parallels with the scenes in the prologue of Dune (2021), whether those are meant to be visions/dreams involving Chani fighting alongside the Fremen guerilla fighters or not.
@@impersonal6650more like just watch the first movie my guy. It’s like going into Star Wars episode 6 and being like “wait a Death Star can destroy planets”?
@@TedShatner10 In the book, Muad'dib's raids against the Harkkonnen went on for two years before it finally reached the point that the Emperor and the other Houses of the Landsraad came to Arrakis to personally intervene. More than harvesters or lives lost, was the dip in Spice production, which would've been felt Imperium-wide and threatened the galaxy's stability. I'm not sure it's mentioned in the movies, but in the books, the Atreides were able to counter-raid Geidi Prime and destroy the stockpiled Spice there, meaning that the Harkkonnens were not only deeply indebted to the Spacing Guild for the ability to raid Arrakis, but they were broke with no way to pay the debt except with what Arrakis could now provide. It started with an extremely precarious position, and 2 years of raiding only made it worse.
@@LabTech41 In the movie the Harkonnen spice harvesting campaign was perhaps set back the most when we see the main spice refinery plant on Arrakeen's outskirts go ka-boom.
It's incredibly obvious this takes place over months, and if you were dumb enough to not realise then the blue eyes Paul had developed should have given it away
@@TedShatner10 Sometimes what happens in a book can't be translated into a movie due to timing or other reasons, but it's nice that the director made it clear that the stockpiles had been hit.

I like how the Harkonnen harvesters look more like bugs or ticks, while the Atreides harvesters are more like ”normal” looking.
The Harkonnen machinery are all diseases, fantastic designs. There were even the mega gunships in the first one, I believe they were described as tumours
I only notice it now, the Spice harvesters look like overfed ticks. A nice analogy to how spice harvesters suck the Spice out of Arrakis.
Tellingly, only House Harkonnen bothered with such an overly extravagant design for their harvesters. All the other harvesters are just ordinary, boxy, no-thrills crawlers.
And the taller they are... The harder they fall.
Hans' score is amazing, but this is my favorite
Bro really be causing harkonnens problems and clapping zendaya cheeks
Your comment is both terribly irreverent and completely accurate, carry on.
Sand cheeks reminds of caladans moistness
bro is almost like the lisan al gaib or something… wait

@@costco_pizzaman you’re in for a wild ride
Page number please?
The lasguns are just so awesome. Reminds me of Halo’s Spartan Laser and Helldiver’s Quasar
Love this scene. Its the turning of the tides. Perfect music.
the best. totally. chills, always
The movie left me with bitter sweet feeling I’ve never had since braveheart
Me as well, just dont know why
That laser is sick
As a long time fan of Dune across both books and games, this was my favorite scene in the movie. The powershift begins.
they learned to attack them on distance from the beggining instead of being under the harvesters being shot
This the first scene he turned into blue eye??
yes!
0:27 why they didn't do this early while destroying harvester instead running and fighting?

All the excuses given above are wrong, its to give the guy and the girl an action hero moment. its stupid.
I'm pretty sure its multiple battles none of them easy. The Omnicopters could only do so much.
I assume because this is meant to show the passage of time and maybe show that with Paul’s help they revised their tactics and seized more equipment

Like how the spice harvesters from harkonnens resemble the walking strandbeests from Theo Jansen with giant beetles
Must be the moving legs / support struts
This is one of the best scene 🎬 in movies history so like the book
Paul and fremen trolling house harkonnen
I won't lie.....
I was crying during this scene and I say to myself: "THIS IS THE GREATEST SEQUEL EVER MADE 🧡"
Wait, the harkonnens have ornithopters?

what a freak paul....
becomes the monster himself
So...critical mining equipment gets easily destroyed by lasguns or whatever the fremen is using..
Read up on the lore of the lazgun.
The spice harvesters aren’t using shields so… yes they do.
Can't use shields in dune because worms are attracted to it.
@@GamerKatz_1971 he paid an IMAX premiere ticket just to have to read the book to understand the plot of the movie. lol.
@@impersonal6650more like just watch the first movie my guy.
It’s like going into Star Wars episode 6 and being like “wait a Death Star can destroy planets”?
Destroyed like 2 harvesters and the Harkonnens already started losing?!?
It's a montage across many weeks to months (where Paul's Fremen maybe destroyed dozens of harvesters and patrols).

Zendaya throws cold water on evry scene shes in. Liked her in Euphoria but not a good performance in Dune
She was honestly the one character in Euphoria that wasn’t annoying
@@stew-03 Was she honestly?
