The gladiator scene with the weird puppet things is *exactly* how imagined a drukhari world from 40k. Just so off and unsettling, something I’ve not experienced in cinema in a long time, if ever
Not necessarily. Dark coloured objects absorb visible light, black the best of all. Vantablack absorbs nearly 100% of light that falls on it hence why a 3D object painted in Vantablack looks like a void with no features.
Herbert used Giedi Prime as an allegory warning against the potential costs and dangers of running a military industrial complex driven by fear and greed.
To say the star absorbed light would be incorrect; instead the correct statement would be, the star only emits lights in the ultraviolet spectrum, or at the ultraviolet end of the spectrum. The star wouldn't be absorbing light in the other spectrums; it simply wouldn't be emitting light in those spectrums. We already know of stars like brown dwarf stars that don't emit much light in the visible spectrum, which is simply a limit of human vision. Other animals are able to see within the ultraviolet spectrum.
If a star emits mostly invisible frequencies of light, with only a little in the visible part of the spectrum, would the light be white? It would be red, right? If it were on the infrared side, or violet, if it were on the ultraviolet end?
@@EzraSolomonecolors are entirely a construct of human perception.

@@EzraSolomone if the star only emitted a little light, then it would just be dim. If it emitted red light it would be red, like the most common stars in the galaxy red dwarves.

@@Jm-wt1fs Having achromatopsia is a realistic scenario where the world would appear monochromatic to human eyes, but my question had nothing to do with that. I'm aware that a "light absorbing star" bleaching the color from a planet makes no sense, and that color only exists through human perception, but thanks. I was only asking how actual stars might appear in certain cases, and I already got my answer.
On a practical level from the audience perspective, what was the difference between shooting in infrared compared to just black and white? It seems like they went through a hell of a lot of trouble just to film in infrared, but to the uninformed viewer, it really just looks black and white. So why go through the trouble of it?
black and white wouldn't look the same at all. I know that sounds silly because this looks black and white, but the infrared gives effects and details that a regular film with black and white filter wouldn't give
The infrared gave milkier highlights, and created a very translucent look on the skin tones, especiallt for feyd and barron. Theire eyes also have a tranlucency to it. The subtelty of the infrared photography allowed for smoother highlight falloff and textures.
It doesn’t look anything like black and white film, I assumed it had gone through a bizarre color correction process that the cinematographer dreamed up. This is way more nuts.
I think they just worded it wrong. Maybe it just emits certain frequencies of light, although the light is white which means it contains all frequencies of the visible light spectrum. The only way a planet could be black at white like this is if the stuff on the planet only reflects white light, aka, is colorless.

Alia was in the film and had dialogue from inside the womb which I thought was a more interesting way to show what she was like in the books. Peter Jackson showed us that you don’t have to follow every letter of every chapter to create a brilliant while still mostly faithful adaptation of a classic. With a series like Dune that already had a huge following you weren’t going to please everyone. But as a fan of the books I think this and the first film brought Arrakis to life vividly in the ways I personally imagined the scenes when reading them. Changing Kynes to a female and adding more discord to the romance doesn’t ruin Dune.
@@dylanmorgan2752 Right, changing Kynes to a female, making it so Chani isn’t their daughter, making it so Chani is at complete odds with Stilgar who was her UNCLE, completely ixnaying the child Paul and Chani had at seitch Tab’r, which was killed, which was the entire reason Paul drank the waters of life, who WAS NOT EGGED ON BY THEIR MOTHER TO DO SO! Who had not been told anything about the Kwisatz Haderach until he told his mother that he knew about it. Also the Bene Gesserit had no current ties to the planet, the mysteries and lore having been passed down by the reverend mother who had crash landed with the original people who eventually became the fremen, who most certainly did not have a “fundamentalist” group living in the south. Yeah it’s one thing to take out a few plot points or gloss over certain things, but they completely destroyed the Vaunted warrior poet Gurney Halleck and removed everything that made him an amazing character. Honestly they were so far off the plot that at the end I was surprised they actually finished the first book. They cut out so much, and yet somehow padded it out into a bloated 3 hour monstrosity. I think they could have cut the last hour out and made a 3rd 2 hour movie that could have been a lot better. So many main characters were just glossed over it isn’t even funny.
@@juangonzalez9848 I feel our definitions of 'main characters' are vastly different. Gurney's poetry and balliset playing are referenced several times across the 2 films. You believe the film was too long but want every minute detail including alongside the entire Chani childbirth. Both films make multiple mentions to the Bene Gesserit having spread propaganda for centuries. As well as the Kwisatz Haderach being mentioned. Saying there was no fundamentalist movement in the book is also a major stretch, it being a prime way to show why Paul's Fedaykin are assembled so quickly during a period that even the writer glossed over when he jumps straight from learning their ways to 2 years in the future. Fundamentalist groups are an easier way to convey the radicalism of the Fremen leading up to the jihad. If you have this many problems with how the story was told is a sign of going into something looking for every minor fault. My main focus was does the overall greatness of the Dune plot get ruined by omission? not really. You could ultimately count a thousand things they dropped from the book that weren't worth mentioning in the medium of film where you have worry more about pacing. Tom Bombadil was cut from LOTR because they were already 3 hours long and removing him didn't impact the overall story of LOTR. Same way them spending an extra ten minutes talking about the polar ice caps and the water smugglers doesn't really need to happen. Ultimately did Villeneuve create an amazing piece of cinema? Yes. Did he pay homage to plot and include most of the main strokes of the story? Yes.
@@dylanmorgan2752 No, I don’t want every minute detail from the books included, what I want is for it to not be completely and utterly ignored. Chani and Paul had a child, whose death was a pivotal point in Paul deciding to take the waters of life. His mother at no point in time prior to that egged him into that in the book. Chani was also not anti reverend mother in the book, which she is in the movie. Shit, she was training to be the next reverend mother in the book. Why did they do a complete 180 in this movie with her? She was completely loyal to Paul in the book and understood that he had to have a political marriage, now she’s running away in frustration and anger. That’s not a minor difference in plot man, that is a major direction shift. Also, the Fedaykin in the movie were a thing, and guess what, they weren’t part of the bloody fundamentalist movement. I’m just saying that they did not come even close to following the plot at the end of part 2. It’s one thing to not have Alia be the one to kill Baron Harkonen, it’s another thing entirely to completely change the relationship dynamic of the actual main characters.
@@juangonzalez9848 I think the changes are meant for "a modern audience" and are ultimately rooted in ideological motivation. Cinematography was great, though.
There were many things I liked in Dune 2. But this small segment alone was enough to tell me that it was best Movie I saw in Cinema for a very long tine.
I thought the color choice is interesting as well. The greyscale, almost monochromatic. The Harkonnen built a civilization that's so binary. Black & White. The rulers are painted in bright white. Despite how dark their practice is. The contrast is so freaking great. Just love it.
My stupid ass didn't understand that this scene was taking place in a different planet lmao. I just accepted the fact that we were shown a turning point and that we went full Harkonnen look to do that.
It's black and white, like our first pictures and films, but it's not the lowest level of technology, it's the highest we have. That we've advanced so much but essentially wound back up in the beginning, is a huge theme in the Dune universe.
Astrophysically, a sun that emits mostly infra-red would be the size of a brown dwarf, so about 300 times bigger than Jupiter but 20,000 smaller than a main sequence star (emits regular light) . To explain the night/day phenomenon on Geidi Prime, an atmospheric filter ( a gaseous troposphere on GP) would be excited by the infra-red emissions thereby causing more visible light in the atmosphere to generate daylight, the gas would then cool off by night as it is no longer exposed to the star. Sounds like this effect has been manufactured on Geidi Prime or they would just live in relative darkness ( akin to the book and the 1984 movie).
You got the premise incorrect. The cinematographer stated that the concept was that the black sun only emits infrared light. He didn't say anything about it only absorbing light, which of course wouldn't be logical since there is daylight on the planet, albeit with no color.
The inkblot fireworks were my favorite

Isn’t it like that in the books?
Nope, it's a movie only thing.
Also the Harkonnens are gingers in the books and not Bald like in these movies.
@@dhyaankotian4672 An understandable change 😂
I like this z makes them more menacing
@@TheGlassMonty I like zis , make zit more manacing
@dhyaankotian4672 the gingers would have been scarier. Lol
The world-building and creation from the cinematography, SFX to the costumes and acting were next level, everyone brought their A-game to this :)
Ugh, but that bald-cap on what’s his name was janky AF.
Basically, “did you guys know that Denis Villanueve literally invented black and white filming”
Bro I guess zendaya has to kiss on every guy she’s in a movie with now, rip Tom
How is that different from every other actor whose movie has a romance arc?
Duh she's an actress she has to kiss while acting or she'd probably lose her job
One of my favorite parts of the movie for sure
No Alia, a grumpy and weirdly twisted Chani who has no chemistry with Muad' Dib. . . This was cinematic awesome but a mangled, disappointing story.
Alia was in the film and had dialogue from inside the womb which I thought was a more interesting way to show what she was like in the books. Peter Jackson showed us that you don’t have to follow every letter of every chapter to create a brilliant while still mostly faithful adaptation of a classic. With a series like Dune that already had a huge following you weren’t going to please everyone. But as a fan of the books I think this and the first film brought Arrakis to life vividly in the ways I personally imagined the scenes when reading them. Changing Kynes to a female and adding more discord to the romance doesn’t ruin Dune.
@@dylanmorgan2752
Right, changing Kynes to a female, making it so Chani isn’t their daughter, making it so Chani is at complete odds with Stilgar who was her UNCLE, completely ixnaying the child Paul and Chani had at seitch Tab’r, which was killed, which was the entire reason Paul drank the waters of life, who WAS NOT EGGED ON BY THEIR MOTHER TO DO SO! Who had not been told anything about the Kwisatz Haderach until he told his mother that he knew about it. Also the Bene Gesserit had no current ties to the planet, the mysteries and lore having been passed down by the reverend mother who had crash landed with the original people who eventually became the fremen, who most certainly did not have a “fundamentalist” group living in the south.
Yeah it’s one thing to take out a few plot points or gloss over certain things, but they completely destroyed the Vaunted warrior poet Gurney Halleck and removed everything that made him an amazing character.
Honestly they were so far off the plot that at the end I was surprised they actually finished the first book. They cut out so much, and yet somehow padded it out into a bloated 3 hour monstrosity. I think they could have cut the last hour out and made a 3rd 2 hour movie that could have been a lot better. So many main characters were just glossed over it isn’t even funny.
@@juangonzalez9848 I feel our definitions of 'main characters' are vastly different. Gurney's poetry and balliset playing are referenced several times across the 2 films. You believe the film was too long but want every minute detail including alongside the entire Chani childbirth. Both films make multiple mentions to the Bene Gesserit having spread propaganda for centuries. As well as the Kwisatz Haderach being mentioned. Saying there was no fundamentalist movement in the book is also a major stretch, it being a prime way to show why Paul's Fedaykin are assembled so quickly during a period that even the writer glossed over when he jumps straight from learning their ways to 2 years in the future. Fundamentalist groups are an easier way to convey the radicalism of the Fremen leading up to the jihad. If you have this many problems with how the story was told is a sign of going into something looking for every minor fault. My main focus was does the overall greatness of the Dune plot get ruined by omission? not really. You could ultimately count a thousand things they dropped from the book that weren't worth mentioning in the medium of film where you have worry more about pacing. Tom Bombadil was cut from LOTR because they were already 3 hours long and removing him didn't impact the overall story of LOTR. Same way them spending an extra ten minutes talking about the polar ice caps and the water smugglers doesn't really need to happen. Ultimately did Villeneuve create an amazing piece of cinema? Yes. Did he pay homage to plot and include most of the main strokes of the story? Yes.
@@dylanmorgan2752
No, I don’t want every minute detail from the books included, what I want is for it to not be completely and utterly ignored. Chani and Paul had a child, whose death was a pivotal point in Paul deciding to take the waters of life. His mother at no point in time prior to that egged him into that in the book. Chani was also not anti reverend mother in the book, which she is in the movie. Shit, she was training to be the next reverend mother in the book. Why did they do a complete 180 in this movie with her? She was completely loyal to Paul in the book and understood that he had to have a political marriage, now she’s running away in frustration and anger. That’s not a minor difference in plot man, that is a major direction shift. Also, the Fedaykin in the movie were a thing, and guess what, they weren’t part of the bloody fundamentalist movement.
I’m just saying that they did not come even close to following the plot at the end of part 2. It’s one thing to not have Alia be the one to kill Baron Harkonen, it’s another thing entirely to completely change the relationship dynamic of the actual main characters.
@@juangonzalez9848 I think the changes are meant for "a modern audience" and are ultimately rooted in ideological motivation. Cinematography was great, though.
There were many things I liked in Dune 2. But this small segment alone was enough to tell me that it was best Movie I saw in Cinema for a very long tine.
Don’t worry if you watch the trailer, you watch the three hour movie😂
I was surprised at how jacked and chiseled Austin Butler was💀
This and the sandworms' knockout entrance into battle were my favorite scenes
The transition from colour to monochrome was orgasmic
So that’s why is looks well lit and dark at the same time.
All of those scenes are perfect and preeminent in the film history
I was so impressed with how they presented Geidi Prime and the Harkonnens. Surpassed my highest expectations.
Amazing how they made a human society look and feel so alien
Amazing cinematic work. Always dreamed of creating something close. Next lifetime ❤
this kind of effect is thousand more cool in The Zone of Interest, maybe even millions
Geidi Prime is such a badass name
I definitely assumed it was a black and white flashback as they rushed through the plot 😂
It's not a "sun"... there's only one Sun, this is a star.
You’re the first reviewer I hear pronounce the name Villeneuve correctly 👏🏾
Giedi Prime sequence was insane, and Austin Butler’s presence is what made it work.
The dark vibes in this scene is something really different.
This movie is legendary.
New look? More like expanded on the descriptions and tones of Herbert, awesome.
I thought the color choice is interesting as well. The greyscale, almost monochromatic. The Harkonnen built a civilization that's so binary. Black & White. The rulers are painted in bright white. Despite how dark their practice is. The contrast is so freaking great. Just love it.
bro you're so underrated
Did you know as if it isn’t obvious how different the Harkonnen home world looks.
The Harkonnens in the new Dune movie look like the Guild from the 1984 Dune movie
My stupid ass didn't understand that this scene was taking place in a different planet lmao.
I just accepted the fact that we were shown a turning point and that we went full Harkonnen look to do that.
It's black and white, like our first pictures and films, but it's not the lowest level of technology, it's the highest we have. That we've advanced so much but essentially wound back up in the beginning, is a huge theme in the Dune universe.
My favorite part was when Austin said:
It's harkonning time.
At first I really thought they were painted white to get that effect
Astrophysically, a sun that emits mostly infra-red would be the size of a brown dwarf, so about 300 times bigger than Jupiter but 20,000 smaller than a main sequence star (emits regular light) . To explain the night/day phenomenon on Geidi Prime, an atmospheric filter ( a gaseous troposphere on GP) would be excited by the infra-red emissions thereby causing more visible light in the atmosphere to generate daylight, the gas would then cool off by night as it is no longer exposed to the star. Sounds like this effect has been manufactured on Geidi Prime or they would just live in relative darkness ( akin to the book and the 1984 movie).
Absolutely love the bleakness of the harkonnens i was completely enthralled with this scene and the whole planet, really
I’m going to have to rewatch the whole thing now
Did I know that they wanted to create a unique look. No. I assumed they wanted it to look like Baltimore and got confused on the way.
Best movie of the last 20 years! 😍
They sorta look like the Space Jockeys from Alien universe
The Apex of the Dune2.
idubbbz character in suns 2 was my favorite
I couldn’t stay focused on this movie the first one. I was like what’s happening?!
Best picture 2024. Hands down.
You got the premise incorrect. The cinematographer stated that the concept was that the black sun only emits infrared light. He didn't say anything about it only absorbing light, which of course wouldn't be logical since there is daylight on the planet, albeit with no color.
If you can see, it's not infrared.
@@Noorthia fair enough. But he still misquotes the film makers' description
@@Noorthiadifferent species could potentially see it I guess
