0:30 Feyd's little side glance here might actually be one of my favourite moments in the whole movie. In just a couple seconds you can see the gears turning in his head, and with so little dialogue it actually says so much about the kind of "loving" relationships the Harkonnens have compared to the other groups/characters. You'd think Feyd would be happy to hear that his uncle is giving him an entire planet to rule over, especially with the added promise of eventually making him Emperor. But instead his first instinct is thinking of all the possible ways this could be a trap.
There's a couple of instances like this in the movie, showing how smart Feyd is compared to the rest of the Harkonnens. At that point of the story, being assigned to oversee spice production means being set up to fail: the Atreides were sent there to die, Rabban wasn't making any progress...
@@vincenzomarino9206 And after what already happened in the arena, being put in charge of a known deathtrap like Arrakis certainly wouldn't assuage Feyd's feeling that his uncle is plotting to kill him.
@@StefWriter I like to think that Feyd is thinking about all of these theories as actual possibilities and calculates that it is probably a good opportunity to accept.
the way the Baron grinds his throat especially when he pronounces 'Harkonnen' is so cool. It seems to imply the amount of faith he has in feyd compared to rabban
In the book this is more explicit. The Baron knows Rabban is an idiot who will not only fail but also pointlessly brutalize the planet to the point he is utterly despised. The ruthless but smart and attractive Feyd will come in and pacify the rebels but seem like a liberator to the workers of the planet in comparison to Rabban, making Feyd not only a hero to the empire for protecting the spice but also popular and loved by the Harkonen’s and on Arrakis.
Denis really portrayed the Harkonnens as worthy antagonists. You clearly get the feeling that this martial and militaristic society would be the coming dominant force in the galaxy if Paul wouldn’t happen to be the space messiah…
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Not really, Emperor going to kill harkonnen and put another in the throne. Harkonnen was used to kill atreides but after that, Their house going to be destroyed.
@lllPlayer obviously they'd loose in a one on one. The baron's plan however was to reveal the truth to the great houses, and to rally them against them. Without the honorable Atreides (as far as they knew), and the paranoia of the Corrino, there was no other real leader worthy of the throne.
Austin Butler said in an interview that he improved grabbing the Baron's face and kissing him back. And the stare right afterwards, improvised or not, it shows so much of his character without saying a word.
“Don’t be hasty”. So cold, Harkonnen is well known as treachery even among their own house and Baron seems to acknowledge that his nephew will do it to him someday.
House Harkonnen has the philosophy that "power and fear" is the key to statecraft and acts accordingly. Such a fascinating flip on the honorable House Atreides.
House Atreides' opposite philosophy under Leto I wasn't purely about honor, though. It was very more a means to obtain power and stay in power. That's one reason I love the Duniverse. Every House and social group is an exhibit on how groups obtain power. House Atreides under Leto I attempted to use liberation and respect to create convenient allies. House Harkkonen used fear and force. House Corrino used indoctrination. Paul used religion. All to control people.
Everything every houses do is on behalf of the Empire, it's all for power. They have different means, yes, yet it's still all for conquest and dominance. In a way, you could say the Harkonnens are more honorable in a sense that they are transparent with their blatant brutality and barbarism. House Atreides on the other hand prides themselves with honor and goodwill whilst doing the very same crimes the other houses do. Imo, Paul the Messiah could've only come from such a family. True evil is that which believes itself to be absolutely good. Civilization is the highest form of barbarism because it does its crimes under the pretension of a higher good.
The Harkonnen language at 1:45 is so fascinating to me. It may be one of the best parts of this movie. I wish we had scenes with the Baron or Feyd speaking it.
Aside from how much I thought Giedi Prime looks visually incredible and oppressive, I also wondered how the forests must look like under the black sun that are mentioned in Heretics of Dune. Those scenes would be wild if Denis decided to adapt past Messiah
Is the black sone mentioned in heretics of dune?? I read only the first 3 books the other books snips there and here and not finished. Did the black sun was mentioned in the books , I tought its Dennis invention
@@user-wq5rh9cn4e Giedi Prime doesn’t have a black sun in the books, it’s a creation for the movie. But the planet does have forests, and you get to read about them in a particular scene from Heretics of Dune. I wondered how they would look like if they decided to adapt the later books, because that would look surreal on screen with the black sun
If these movies keep doing as well as they have been? Then there’s no question that we’ll eventually see a heretics and hell maybe even a chapterhouse movie. The biggest hump/challenge to adapt will obviously be god emperor. But all that said, there’s no guarantee DV will direct anything past messiah. Wb will go on making the rest of the movies, but whether DV has anything to do with them is questionable
It’s crazy how I remember watching this guy in small roles on Disney and Nickelodeon shows when I was a kid, now he’s one of my favorite actors of all time and one of the best actors out there.
Also the fist and palm, except it’s above the head. Makes sense that Rome (and Italian fascism that followed) and China are known as some of the most authoritarian nations in the world
I don't think that was that subliminal at all, it seemed clearly inspired by the nazi salute. The shaking hands above their heads thing they do after also seems inspired by the movie '1984', which again, features a totalitarian regime.
He actually said in an interview that he studied the movements of snakes. It really shows with his walk at 0:50. It looks like he’s slithering. This guy shows another level of dedication to his characters.
@@jackdolinger820omg yes! Everytime he walks or moves he resembles the movement of a snake. The way his eyes are too. So haunting, yet beautiful. Hes so fantastic.
@jackdolinger820 that does not surprise me. His voice is like a hiss and his laughter like a rattle. Everytime he moves you think he's going to strike.
@@EarthstarAndy I love how everything in this movie seems familiar, but also completely foreign. Like its something you remember, but not know from where.
Dear Diary, New housemaid overcooked my eggs again. Cut her throat on the spot. They better honor my warranty but I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy my next one elsewhere, as this is the fourth housemaid in the last three weeks. Then again, maybe I shouldn't be buying slaves from Giedi Prime. Jim at the poolhall keeps telling me I need to open up my wallet and just buy one from Selusa Secundus. Maybe he's right. Anyway, ran into Kevin on my way to work again and he won't shut up about his new baby blue luxury buggy that cost him a fortune. I really want to know why the color matters so much to him, seeing as how all of our buggies are black and white when we're outside. Is he stupid? Work was pretty mundane. Boss only killed 6 slaves today, so he must have been in a good mood. Either that or hung over from Na Baron Feyd-Rautha's Coming of Age party. It's so difficult to tell these days. Whatever. As long as I don't get re-assigned to Arrakis again.
I don't think David Peterson has shared any details regarding the Geidi Prime language, so if this is your own attempt at creating a spelling for it, goddamn, I'm impressed
One of my favourite parts in the book is when the Baron reveals his plans to make Feyd Emperor. Internally he was elated, but outwardly he displayed no emotion, kept his cool, which the Baron noticed and approved. It's a small little line, but it really gives rise to the imagination of what Feyd's been through, moulded as he is to be the Baron's heir.
For a time, he would simply be Navigator's Guild bitch, but also bringing that harsh view of Harkonenns on power to the rest of Landsdraad. That until he will plot to take control over the Guild, and then, maybe, Bene Gesserit too.
The Harkonnens were the wealthiest house and had the most industrialized planet, if not for the Bene Gesserit and the Spacing Guild they'd be the greatest power in the imperium.
@@shockwave2291they would’ve added sardaukar. Meaning that they would be in control of spice production aka the entire interstellar travel for everyone else political power of the emperor and the might of the strongest (besides Fremen) army in the galaxy.
The Baron is like an evil Churchill. Both removed commanders for not being able to accomplish their orders and replaced them with "better" commanders who also just happen to have more resources at their disposal.
I love the shot at 2:15. It has nazi symbolism, especially given the fact most nazi propaganda movies were depicted as black and white, but it has this megalophobia-inducing tick-like spaceships. They are like space nazi parasites.
They changed his character quite a bit from the books, and there's arguments either way which was the better approach, but regardless they made a great choice in casting Austin Butler for the role. He's excellent.
@@hntrl8880 Physically he's bald and pale where in the books he's dark haired. In terms of character, he's much more potent in the film than in the books. In the books he's far less of a credible threat to Paul because Paul has Bene Gesserit training, and Feyd does not. Paul is the best fighter of the Fremen, the Fremen are more than a match for the Sardaukar, and any Sardaukar would be capable of killing Feyd. In the book, there is a threat to Paul in the room, but it isn't Feyd, it's a man called Count Fenring who is an 'almost' Kwisatz Haderach, and very dangerous. They took him out of the movie, and made Feyd more of a direct threat when really he's more of a speed-bump in the book. In the book Feyd is really eyeing the Baron's throne, and even making some attempt to assassinate him, but he isn't as clever or wily as his uncle, and would never openly threaten him, or he'd be dead in a heartbeat. In the book the Baron is enduring his insolence because he's the best of the two nephews with the most potential, but he punishes him to remind him who is in charge. Movie Feyd is much more openly threatening to the Baron. Also if anything, the movie Feyd is more sadistic and needlessly violent than the book Feyd, who is a bit of a poseur with ambition above his ability.
Another thing you can take from this scene is how... shallowly disciplined the Harkonnen truly are. In the pared they are all in synchrony, showing the military might... but in battle, true battle, against an opponent that shows even the slightest sign of being better than them... the fold. I still remember the stair scene in the first movie, the Atreides soldier are outnumbered, but the line is pristine, their synchrony of actions perfect, if the Harkonnen didn't had the Sardaukar in that moment, it would have taken at least ten times the Harkonnen number to kill those Atreides soldiers.
People say Harkonnens look like Third Reich Germany a lot, but I argue it’s even more like the Chinese. Let me explain: 1. Hair style: all Harkonnens are bald (or at least those who are fully Harkonnen blood), in Qing dynasty, all men must wear rat tail hairstyle, failure to do so may result in execution. 2. Concubines and their demeanor. When Vladimir and his chair rolled in, it is immediately recognizable that the formation of the concubine and the way they’re bowing is borrowed from Chinese norms. It should also be noted that in at least 2200 years of unified feudal China, there had been only one empress, and there was only one emperor who stayed monogamous 3. Artistic style. Giedi prime is monochromatic, just like water ink in Chinese art, which also only uses shades of black and gray 4. The celebration. Instead of clapping, the celebration is almost definitely a mutation from fist and palm, the way of greeting in China pre 20th century 5. The general oppressiveness of the planet. Before the late 19th century, there is no word in Chinese lexicon that translates to freedom, liberty, or self determination. The word for freedom, 自由, originally meant arising from oneself. It was not until the Japanese corresponded this into freedom/liberty in the 1870s that the Chinese started using it this way 6. The parades. Military parades have been a long tradition in communist countries, or countries that descended from a communist government. Here is a picture of Chinese military parade and tell me if they’re similar or not images.app.goo.gl/Dx9mWtmaEmK3ASGr9 6. Industrialization. The third Reich were surprisingly environmentalist. The Chinese on the other hand… you have heard of enough horror stories 7. Religion and government. We know Feyd Rautha’s birthday is a holy day, but one should also know that every single religion operating in China is under government surveillance. One funniest one was that Buddhist monks “are not allowed to reincarnate without government permission” There are a few more points I can point to, but I just think the Harkonnens in fact are similar to China more than any other culture currently on earth
Without reading the books, the audience would be left guessing many of the scenes played out. Dune is the masterpiece of science fiction like the Lord of the Rings is to fantasy. To much was left out and the Baron Harkonen was sugarcoated so not to offend certain group.
Feyd WOULD have died if he hadn't cheated (novel-wise). The Atreides soldier was conditioned with a word in his subconscious which would weaken him momentarily. Feyd was about to get a blade shoved through his chest when Feyd said the word 'scum'. This allowed him to cut the gladiator with the poisoned black blade (which was also against tradition as the white blade always carried the poison). The gladiator also killed HIMSELF before the poison could paralyze him before ending him in a far slower, more agonizing death. His last words were "One day...one...of us...will...get...you".
Feyd was such a disappointment. He appeared out of nowhere, had no idea where any of the events were ever going, just blindly reacting and was wiped off in the same movie. Should've been one of the bits to cut, instead of the guild navigator or Alia.

In the books he's far less of a credible threat to Paul because Paul has Bene Gesserit training, and Feyd does not. Paul is the best fighter of the Fremen, the Fremen are more than a match for the Sardaukar, and any Sardaukar would be capable of killing Feyd.
In the book, there is a threat to Paul in the room, but it isn't Feyd, it's a man called Count Fenring who is an 'almost' Kwisatz Haderach, and very dangerous. They took him out of the movie, and made Feyd more of a direct threat when really he's more of a speed-bump in the book.
In the book Feyd is really eyeing the Baron's throne, and even making some attempt to assassinate him, but he isn't as clever or wily as his uncle, and would never openly threaten him, or he'd be dead in a heartbeat. In the book the Baron is enduring his insolence because he's the best of the two nephews with the most potential, but he punishes him to remind him who is in charge. Movie Feyd is much more openly threatening to the Baron.
Also if anything, the movie Feyd is more sadistic and needlessly violent than the book Feyd, who is a bit of a poseur with ambition above his ability.
A few guys in the IMAX theatre including my brother and I did the Harkonnen cheering gesture.
Very tighly bonded uncle and nephew realtionship
Agum Meh-Bawun Feyd-Rautha : kido Plakthi Gamaazin Arrakeess!
Another thing you can take from this scene is how... shallowly disciplined the Harkonnen truly are.
In the pared they are all in synchrony, showing the military might... but in battle, true battle, against an opponent that shows even the slightest sign of being better than them... the fold.
I still remember the stair scene in the first movie, the Atreides soldier are outnumbered, but the line is pristine, their synchrony of actions perfect, if the Harkonnen didn't had the Sardaukar in that moment, it would have taken at least ten times the Harkonnen number to kill those Atreides soldiers.
You can totally tell the line “Rid me of this Fremen demon” was ADR in post
The Heresy begins. FOR CHAOS!
2:10 onward is the best part. Feyd Rautha chanting is really a piece of art.
Feyd-Rautha--HARKONNEN!
Chills
1:30 FEYD RAUTHA, HARRRKONEN!
i love the way the baron laughs when he said he should drown him xD
God this film was just fucking incredible
these two new dune movies are masterpieces i have high hopes that the next one will not disappoint
The black and white imagine of Gidi Prime looks like something out of a 1950s sci-fi B movie...amazing
Bucky's B-17 crashed onto the wrong planet
I really curious about harkonnen culture... hand down slash salute, then those congratulate gesture are almost chinese...
People say Harkonnens look like Third Reich Germany a lot, but I argue it’s even more like the Chinese. Let me explain:
1. Hair style: all Harkonnens are bald (or at least those who are fully Harkonnen blood), in Qing dynasty, all men must wear rat tail hairstyle, failure to do so may result in execution.
2. Concubines and their demeanor. When Vladimir and his chair rolled in, it is immediately recognizable that the formation of the concubine and the way they’re bowing is borrowed from Chinese norms. It should also be noted that in at least 2200 years of unified feudal China, there had been only one empress, and there was only one emperor who stayed monogamous
3. Artistic style. Giedi prime is monochromatic, just like water ink in Chinese art, which also only uses shades of black and gray
4. The celebration. Instead of clapping, the celebration is almost definitely a mutation from fist and palm, the way of greeting in China pre 20th century
5. The general oppressiveness of the planet. Before the late 19th century, there is no word in Chinese lexicon that translates to freedom, liberty, or self determination. The word for freedom, 自由, originally meant arising from oneself. It was not until the Japanese corresponded this into freedom/liberty in the 1870s that the Chinese started using it this way
6. The parades. Military parades have been a long tradition in communist countries, or countries that descended from a communist government. Here is a picture of Chinese military parade and tell me if they’re similar or not
images.app.goo.gl/Dx9mWtmaEmK3ASGr9
6. Industrialization. The third Reich were surprisingly environmentalist. The Chinese on the other hand… you have heard of enough horror stories
7. Religion and government. We know Feyd Rautha’s birthday is a holy day, but one should also know that every single religion operating in China is under government surveillance. One funniest one was that Buddhist monks “are not allowed to reincarnate without government permission”
There are a few more points I can point to, but I just think the Harkonnens in fact are similar to China more than any other culture currently on earth
At least they put in a reference to the Harkonnens being homosexuals 😂
I'll send you, Feyd. Lovely Feyd.
RABBAN WILL BE REASSIGNED
All those Damn Cousins.
Happy birthday!
The way he moves at 0:50 looks just like a snake.
FEYD RAUTHA... HARKONNEN!!! 😎😎😎
Without reading the books, the audience would be left guessing many of the scenes played out. Dune is the masterpiece of science fiction like the Lord of the Rings is to fantasy. To much was left out and the Baron Harkonen was sugarcoated so not to offend certain group.
1:51 Did he just say "Arrakith"
Man, I love that military parade
FEYD RAUTHA!! FEYD RAUTHA!!
Here for 1:30
I like this version of feyd rautha
Best birthday gift ever
"I ought to drown you in that tub."
"oh hof hof hof"
Had me in stiches.
That atriedes soldier was 1 snickers bar away from killing the harkonnen heir 🤣🤣🤣
Feyd WOULD have died if he hadn't cheated (novel-wise). The Atreides soldier was conditioned with a word in his subconscious which would weaken him momentarily. Feyd was about to get a blade shoved through his chest when Feyd said the word 'scum'. This allowed him to cut the gladiator with the poisoned black blade (which was also against tradition as the white blade always carried the poison). The gladiator also killed HIMSELF before the poison could paralyze him before ending him in a far slower, more agonizing death. His last words were "One day...one...of us...will...get...you".
@@itsjustme8947 😮😮😮, that sounds even more epic
May thy knife chip and shatter.
May THY knife... Chip and shatter...😜
When is a gift not a gift?
Ohahahah, don’t be hasty… ~so amused, I do like Stellons take on the Baron Harkonnen
Please Why
1:31 he sounds like churchill
They really did make Fayd cool as hell.
Feyd was such a disappointment.
He appeared out of nowhere, had no idea where any of the events were ever going, just blindly reacting and was wiped off in the same movie.
Should've been one of the bits to cut, instead of the guild navigator or Alia.
The Harkonnens stole the movie. I wish there were more scenes with them.
I think Feyd should've had some kind of "Darth Maul" like, black tribal tatto pattern on his head. Make him look really menacing.
I'm so sad his character died, he was incredible.
We need the following: more speaking roles, more houses, more hours to tell more of the dealings of the Landsdraad.
In the last shot of the parade, was that Harkonnen groundcars?
Maybe harkonnen ground troop transports ? You can also se them next to the emperors tent in arrakis
Harkonnen wireless computer mouse, the only thing that survived the butlerian jihad
Please upload The "silence" scene
Interesting seeing hair cake idubbbz in this film.
Lmfao I thought I was the only one who saw the similarity, especially at 0:50
¿ When a gift is not a gift?
When it's Arrakis.
The twisting of storyline’s between book and movie is interesting. I don’t know if it’s better or will detract from the political plot lines too much
Bro what the hell 😭😭😭 its the new Liverpool manager
He would potentially be signing his own death warrant if he killed his own uncle and leader of the harkkonens
1:57
Me kissing my homie goodnight
1:56 😚
Paul: "... you kissed your uncle on the mouth?" *queue Bene Gesserit jumpscare!*
Austin should play frieza from dbz
