    I absolutely loved the Geidi Prime look. As I watched it in theaters, it kinda struck hard and left me in awe. It actually gave off such an alien planet feel. And its not just black and white, it's "The Black Sun of Geidi Prime that interferes with the color spectrum, the way light is refracted, where color is washed out" Its just so damn cool.

      @brybryguy6314 День назад

      Product of their environment. The Harkonnens evolved on a world of massive industry and pollution. Due to the massive pollution on this world, the planet probably lost its protective ozone and the Harkonnens evolved to withstand this world. Why I think they don't have hair is again no ozone and the Harkonnens are exposed to the suns radiation. Of course these are my own personal theroys

  • @brybryguy6314
    @brybryguy6314 День назад

    You kinda explained nothing. The reasons behind the " black and white" in fact it was filmed in infrared not black and white. Denis Villeneuve created Geidi Prime under a black sun and wanted to create the feel of a world that under a black sun instead of giving the world color it destroys color. You can see this during the sceenes of Geidi Prime when the Barron is floating towards the stage, when in the shade, its in color when exposed to the light its black and white. He also wanted to give the feeling of a old WWII movie as well. Another instresting thing during the Geidi Prime sceen. When the Bene Gesserit entered into the stadium, they are covered. Alluding to the fact that Geidi Primes history of massive industry and pollution lead the planet to have no protective ozone and the ultra Violet rays from the sun along with the radiation that could harm or kill someome who is not Harkonnen due to the Harkonnens embrasing their industry and polluted world. Why i also think they have no hair due to the radiation from the sun bombarding the planet

      @machinesnoires 2 месяца назад +1

      @vercot7000, There's no explanation in the book; it's simply DV who says, "Oh, the Sun is not showing colors." It's astonishing. Actually, dogs don't see colors, and most animals don't perceive most colors. It has nothing to do with the Sun; it's simply laziness. But you have the right to enjoy it, and I have the right to say it doesn't deserve a 10/10 rating. Perhaps a 5/10 would be more appropriate. Personally, I'd rate it a 3/10 because there's no challenging creativity involved, just motocross-suited GI in the desert with boxy CGI.

    An impossible situation. Black and white are not colours so it would be literally impossible for a planet to be devoid of colour. Also don't get me started on the "black sun" nonscence. I know it is a work of fiction but it doesn't need to break the laws of physics to do it. Breaks the immersion for me.

    • @silverhawkroman
      @silverhawkroman 2 месяца назад +7

      i think they could have taken a sun that emits only ultraviolet light, kinda like a black light lamp and have them have to use goggles when they do space travel to deal with the whole spectrum, which would explain why they are not visibly seen across the universe and manage to attack and dominate. I would have made their skin pitch black from the insane UV bombing they get and have them only be able to see themselves on that planet while humans can't. There's so much you can play with, including species made from different types of matter but hey this is all just like The Forever War, where it's just the vietnam war but with a scifi skin

      @@Shiyaku93 it would make sense if the planet is some sort of alive, every sand particle is tied to each other and can communicate with each other, it would make sense to see the future with the caveat being that its only restricted to events on the planet. It then should be the same with ancestral memories since the sand memorizes the flow.
