I think he wanted some desert planet or something and other people had the planet and he was kinda mad that they had it and so he sent some people to get it or something.
This is Dune right?
He got jammed up in a movie that would have been great if it was in the hands of a Fincher or Nolan, but instead got given to a fricking pretentious hack who relies on spectacle over substance.
he's the creation of a shitty writer that named things 'spice' and 'Arakis'. boring political vie for power crap. all this in one of the most boring geological settings to ever exist
There’s poles. there’s also more going on with the terrain than it seems at first, but the Fremen have a deal with the guild that prohibits anyone from using sattelites to scan the whole planet
The moment when villehack chickened out from making the Baron into an aggressively sadistic homosexual pedophile like in the books you knew that this whole thing was going to suck. Baron Harkonnen needed to be like Harvey Weinstein and Bryan Singer thrown into a blender, just this disgusting slobbish and sickly looking pervert surrounded by a harem of dead-souled looking twinks who is so powerful that even his own children are afraid of saying "No" to him.
Jessica Chastain also needed to be Lady Jessica because she's got that sad emptiness in her eyes from being HARVESTED IRL and you can imply that the Baron himself molested her as a kid to make him even more evil and make her story even more tragic imo.
The Baron is basically Robert Baratheon but with Tywin's psychopathic cunning and instead of prostitutes it's teenage boys that he's constantly surrounded with. Rabban should be a cross between The Mountain and King Joffrey (in terms of his ruling style). Feyd is basically Ramsay Bolton but with Jeffrey's bedroom habits. Have him constantly plowing through beautiful teenage girls who are implied to be slaves and make it clear that he's killing them after sexually torturing them. The Harkonnens are supposed to be a case study in how power corrupts, as well as in the effects of political drive at the expense of your soul (foreshadowing the Baron's great grandson Leto II), so lean the frick into it and make them ASOIAF villian-tier contemptible and really EARN that R rating.
Didn't watch the film, but in the book he's just a sadistic fat frick who is over indulgent in all of life's pleasures. Including masochistic pleasures. There's nothing more complex to it than that. He's genuinely just evil, and gets off on it. Probably one of the more realistic depictions of evil for that reason. He is just evil and likes it. Doesn't try to explain it with some bullshit philosophy. He just enjoys power and hurting people.
Like I said, he's an extremely ASOIAF style villain. A sick dude who is completely ruled by his worst and most evil influences because he was born into enough power to get away with all of it.
His family has perpetuated a blood feud with the Atreidies for thousands of years.
It's also important to keep in mind that the Great Houses of the Llandsrad have all been a part of B.G. breeding. They're all highly intelligent, expertly breed people.

>Nolan
BWOOOAAAMMMM
Nolan is the definition of spectacle over substance.
The only director who could do Dune justice would be Guillermo Del Toro tbh, everyone else just isn't weird enough.
Doug Jones as a crazy looking nightmare fuel guild navigator would be a real show stopper tbh
remember when people were afraid that depicting the Baron's depravity (pedogay) that it might send the wrong message that pedogayotry is bad?
This always gets me lol, morons literally think that there should be villains in stories but they don't actually do anything wrong

>geological
i never understood arakis. is it just this one biome, the entire planet?

>Fremen
>the guild
what a garbage author
What would you name them?
Frefolx and the commune
radiation, but thankfully it's the equivalent of a chest x-ray
Greed
He was a giga-chad who, because of one massive blunder, became a fat, bloated bag of diseases.
care to elaborate?
Never rape a Bene Gesserit. They can infect you with all kinds of nasty, disfiguring illnesses if they want to.
not enough HAM HAMBURGER
Sand Black folk on Dune wouldn't stop stealing his spice.
Incompetent director.
