Honestly can’t explain it. Nor why they used a lasgun to cut through to Paul, Jessica and Keyes in part 1.
Only logical reason is the adaptions are shit. Read the book instead.
Because copters dont have contact with the surface moron

>Vibrations only transmit via surface contact
How do you think Black folk blasting music in traffic vibrates your eardrums? Not to mention the thopters in general. Also it's still not established what the frick difference there is between the Harvester attracting worms and a shield.
Also semi-related, but the editing in that scene where Paul and Chani are taking down the one (1) thopter (because the Harkonnens are poorgays, I guess) is fricked. The shield is constantly going on and off in milliseconds for the machine gun to fire, but inexplicably when Paul distracts it the shield, despite having a good couple of seconds, is delayed and the rocket gets caught in the shield during its reactivation.
Denny has lost his mind.
Why don't we put Kevlar and armor platings on cranes?
Because they are industrial machinery lmao, their helicopters had shields, I mean they spend like 5 minutes taking it down and then immediately started using their lasers the second they succeeded
How the frick are you supposed to frame it otherwise without exposition?
Harvesters also make noise, that's why they have the spotters and why the harvesters have to be periodically picked up.
Then why are copters using shields near harvesters?
Because they're being attacked. If the harvester gets blown up by the Fremen the shield attracting worms and the worm destroying the harvester is a moot point.
>Harvesters also make noise(...)
Right, so what's the difference? I ask because during the Atreides/Fremen ambush on the Harkonnen harvester, the ground troops aren't using shields. Why there is a ground escort at all is beyond me. The whole scene baffles me. >The Fremen buried themselves a day in advance so they could jump out of the sand for... some reason? >The Atreides regiment approach on foot from miles away and no scout thopter sees them
What the actual frick is going on in this movie? I get the rule of cool, but 90% of the movie is fricking ugly anyway.
They have a ground escort because otherwise the Fremen would just plant mines and blow the treads as they do at one point during the montage. As for why the ground troops don't have a shield to activate when the Fremen attack that they otherwise keep off, who knows. Maybe a bunch of them being on at once will attract a worm even faster than a copter that's off the ground and then they all die because a worm beelines for them.

Obviously they can't scan under the ground or they could detect the Fremen there. Mines can obviously be attracted in some sort of magnetic fashion based on the attack on Gurney's harvester. Is it realistic that they don't have scanning devices that can go over an entire path and see shit that's under the ground for twenty meters or so? Probably, yeah, but at some point I have to accept that it would be lame from a moviemaking perspective. Or even from a book perspective because I think the Fremen ambush from the sand there too.
My understanding of it was that they needed to take the shielded thopter out in order to use the lasgun safely, and the harvester was the best means of cover to engage it from, however later in the movie they lasgun two harvesters at once without taking the thopters out.

Shields make the worms mad so they don't do it. I like to think of it like treading water in the ocean vs dumping a bunch of viscera in the water then jumping in and thrashing about violently.

How much madder? I mean they already pinpoint your location and consume you whole. What else do they do and why would it matter? The evacuation process is already applied no matter how a worm is attracted, so if you're gone, you're gone.

Could come twice as fast and jump out of the sand and ram the harvester.

Iirc it's that the shields make them not just more aggressive, but also attracts them from long distances. So you get something like the scene from the final battle with multiple worms charging like crazy, rather than one worm looking for something to eat.

The first time you're introduced in Part One the worm is attracted by the harvester from pretty far away. If anything, since attracting them is virtually inevitable, attracting from farther would be better. More time for evac.

Like it or not she's the heart of this film. They deliberately wrote her to be an audience insert, she's basically a 21st century liberal who happens to live on Dune. Her being suspicious of Paul, falling in love with him, then realizing he's still going to conquer the galaxy and being heart broken, is pretty much the arc they want the viewer to go on.
I mean, I'm sure the Emperor's soldiers didn't want to nuke themselves. I'm still not sure why DUNCan Idaho sacrificed himself. The time he "delayed" the soldiers they could've all escaped and closed the secret door and then he could have been there to protect them. >We will not harm Paul or Jessica >Now my loyal underling, go and capture Paul and Jessica and arrange for them to be eaten by worms in the desert. I can now in good faith lie to the Bene Gesserit, unless they simply ask me "Did you in any way orchestrate their demise?"
Did a six year-old write this book/script? What a load of malarkey.
Why didn't these homies just laser everything?
If a laser hits a shield it’s makes a nuke like explosion that would kill the target and that shooter.
So why did they attack the harkonnen with lasers then in the first scene? Did they just risk them putting on shields?
And why the frick didnt the harkonnen put on shields in that scene, they didnt knwo the fremem used lasers?

>Nor why they used a lasgun to cut through to Paul, Jessica and Keyes in part 1.
Because it wouldnt have mattered at all.
You can't use shields in the desert, it sends the worms into a frenzy. Almost certain they had a line about that in the first movie.
Then why are copters using shields near harvesters?

They don't mention this in the movies.
As opposed to the Harvesters, Thumpers, and walking in general? What's the difference between worms bumrushing you and "a frenzy" anyway?
Harvesters also make noise, that's why they have the spotters and why the harvesters have to be periodically picked up.
