Much brutalist. Much Afghanistan.

Back at it. Is it just me or did they make the worms bigger in thus compared to David Lynch version?
Bugcopters still my favorite part. The brutalist buildings and ships are a bit meh.
Somebody said this looks like an extended Dolce & Gabbana ad. Kinda agree.

Why bagpipes for House Atreides? Nothing else seems Scottish about them.
Sardaukar look more Ottoman Empire than Roman praetorian guard 🤔
Harkkonens are kinda fun. Pity they’re the baddies.

Questions: is Dune Herbert’s response to Lawrence of Arabia, or to Hirohito? Emperors existed in his normal world. Or was it him predicting Afghanistan? American moral exceptionalism still driven by capitalistic intent? Freman clearly mujahideen, bene gesserit the CIA?
