then why would they ever set foot on the ground?
oh, right. to stand out in the open and not turn on their shields when being 360 noscoped
this fricking movie is garbage
>oh no a thumper we only got at least minutes to finish the immediate task, better let's take a huge unnecessary risk and drop it instantly and climb the highest point available although we could just send one guy to scout for the worm and warm us if he notices it and we don't even need to climb any higher than knee high since it makes no difference for the worm why the frick are we even climbing let's just hover when it arrives, duck there's probably rock beneath the sand just next to the visible part, who says the rock has to be bare there could be miles of impassable sand all around us
They never even explain why in the movie. The hunter leader just goes NO SHIELDS before getting headshotted. Apparently it agitates the worms. You’d think they would take the risk when they’re getting sniped and out of reach from the worms anyway
What good are shields if they can’t protect again the one thing besides blades in your enemy’s arsenal? Why does the hunter tell his men to leave their shields off if it was so obvious?

Because they’re scared grunts, and Harkonnen society revolves around slavery so they’re likely conscripted to boot. It only takes one guy activating his shield and getting shot to kill them all, and the Fremen don’t give a rat’s ass about collateral damage.

Because the fremen will nuke shit.
Sounds like employing shields is more of a liability than an asset since anyone can trigger a nuclear explosion from a reasonable distance without needing to deliver the payload. Why didn’t the Baron just snipe Arrakeen’s shield with a lasgun and blow up the Duke and his army?

It’s a liability when your enemy doesn’t care about collateral damage. You have terminal total war brain.
It's call the holtzman force. It's the opposite of nuclear force. So levitation, space folding, personal shields add possible.
You can use the shields because the holtzman force is as strong as the nuclear force which is very strong. You'll end up trapping hydrogen between the laser and holtzman shield and set off fusion. It's a bad idea plus worms come. When worms come storms with 300-400 mph wind throwing blades of sand that is hardened to steel. Arrakis fricking sucks. It's 130-170 Farenheit. It's fricking hot and windy and dusty and just nothing but dunes and polar regions. The south part is mountains the north is semi inhabited. No one there can survive without importing crap even the fremen. It just sucks
I can. You are b***h. I want to frick you in ass until you love me. I would if I could hahaha it's about family dead Black person storage and the leather store closed due to aids gay boi

well, which one is it?

doesn’t turn your eyes blue, that was never in the books
Wait, really? I thought it did. If not then why do Paul and Jessica's eyes turn more blue in the book? And why do some characters, like the smuggler, are noted as having semi bluish eyes? I could have sworn it was because he ingested some spice but not enough like the Fremen
Why is Benis so hell-bent on designing the most moronic scenes is he trying to one up Nolan?
There's so many levels this scene was stupid it would be hard to list them all
>Harkonnen king showed with hover technology always >Sardaurkar soldiers hover down in DUNC 1.0 during the Atreides Base attack >It takes you two movies and 6 hours to recognize hovering ???
Even dune's lynch had flying harkonnens
well, which one is it?
It's the same suspensor technology the Baron and the Sardaukar use
then why would they ever set foot on the ground?

No shields because a lazgun hitting a shield is the equivalent of a nuclear bomb. They also attract worms.
>nuclear bomb shields
no one cares about your moronic books.
it's never mentioned in the movie because the movie is garbage

in the books the spice just gives you a huge hog
Hmm
Bonus
>Paul and Jessica's daughter
Post proof or your mother gets raped tonight

Then how did the Atreides get to Arrakis smart guy?
Why is Benis so hell-bent on designing the most moronic scenes is he trying to one up Nolan?

big if true
Sardaukar not Harkonnen, moron
Those were Harkonnens
this was one of my favorite scenes in dunc. although denis butchered the book, he did a good job coming up with anti-gravity tech.
>Harkonnen king showed with hover technology always
>Sardaurkar soldiers hover down in DUNC 1.0 during the Atreides Base attack
>It takes you two movies and 6 hours to recognize hovering ???
>king
how many fricking times do they call him Baron
All of the floating in these films was incredible. There should have been much more floating.
