@Linguine Fettuccine. Lol... But its true that Duke Leto faar to easy agreed to something which from the very beginning screams loud : *ITS A TRAP!!!* On the other hand... until Leto the II didn't break the curse of the Spice the whole "Diune Verse" was incredibly easy to conquer for any space faring civilizations able to operate without the Navigators... Of course I know that Herbert created very one sided Universe operated around Spice but somehow I doubt there are NO spiced spacefaring civs around but they doesn't interfere with the Empire and its subjects since entire Empire's economy is based on Spice... which for those free of it civs has simply no value?.. OR... maybe I'm far too used to the multi civs SciFi franchises so for me Diune Verse is very... gray painted world... without serious diversity?.. But that's just my personal opinion of course. 😉

They both know this is essentially a terribly elaborate assassination to secure the Emperor's power: the two most influential houses after the imperial house is Atradies (respected by the people) and Harkonnen (powerful and wealthy). Harkonnen controls Dune. Emperor gives Dune to Atradies knowing Harkonnen will lash out, in the process eliminating or severely weakening Atradies and demonizing Harkonnen in the eyes of the people. And with his hands perfectly clean, the Emperor has murdered the threat to his throne in broad daylight.

This scene wasn't in the book. When I first saw it, it felt so well executed and to fit so perfectly in the plot, that surely it had to be part of the source material. Only after I read the books did I understand that it was actually one of Villeneuve's own contributions. This really makes one appreciate the creative process behind movies in general, and this one in particular. I think it takes a special kind of director to understand, confidently, where and what to change the source material to make it more cinematographic.

It's unlikely the Herald suspected the Emperor's involvement such as it was. If the other houses of the Landsraad knew about the Emperor helping to destroy the Atreides they'd rise up and destroy House Corino. It was a shock to everyone when Sardaukar showed up. What everyone including the Duke expected was simply that it would invite war between the Harkonnen and Atreides. So the Herald knew that the Duke had guaranteed himself a war with one of the most ruthless and cruel Houses in the Known Galaxy. And a House that had just been enriching itself off of Arrakis for the past 70 years or whatever it was.

Note the camera angle when the Duke looks down at the table, hesitating before he presses his seal. It's a traditional camera angle of a funeral: looking up from inside the grave at the mourners. Except its his own funeral, and on some level he's at least partially aware of it. Follow that with the shot of Gurney from afar with tight focus: another classic funeral shot. And then the Reverend Mother, looking exactly like she's wearing funeral garb. It just utterly seals the unconscious image that this is the Duke's own death warrant he's signing, and they're all present to watch him do it.

The Duke knew it was a trap from the very beginning, and IMO I think the face the representative gives seems to be more of a somber one because they both know whats going to happen.

I love how the whole movie makes you hate the Emperor without even showing him. That man on top who sends people to their deaths with a wave of his hand, because they MIGHT threaten his precious throne.

More than that the question actually shows, that Leto himself isn't really sure of all this pompous imperial court procedure. He's just another guy, more down to earth, to whom all these formalities seem rather obscure. Also, it tell's us quite a lot on the relationship between Atreides at least, maybe even the whole court system around it, that nobody bothered to actually plan it in advance. Either that or you can't even trust anybody. Basically, it's just rich guys fumbling around, toying with so much power, while they do not even comprehend what they are doing.

Simpy put: they both know this is essentially a terribly elaborate assassination to secure the Emperor's power: the two most influential houses after the imperial house is Atradies (respected by the people) and Harkonnen (powerful and wealthy). Harkonnen controls Dune. Emperor gives Dune to Atradies knowing Harkonnen will lash out, in the process eliminating or severely weakening Atradies and demonizing Harkonnen in the eyes of the people. And with his hands perfectly clean, the Emperor has murdered the threat to his throne in broad daylight.

This is undoubtedly my favourite scene in Dune. Especially going in blind, it sets up the atmosphere of the film perfectly. The score, the unspoken tension and political feel of it...I always enjoy the subtle threat of violence in dialogue more than the explosive action scenes. When I saw this for the first time, I knew I was going on an epic adventure. Secondly, I love how this feels like a populated alien world with a rich history. And I love when the future is depicted this way...the costume design is inventive without being unrecognizable. It's silhouettes and material we're familiar with, but looks otherworldly in this context. Finally, Oscar Isaac's voice is so majestic. He delivers the gravity and dread needed in the scene.

One of the best Scenes in the movie, that "Herald of the Change" was something...he was straight to the point!

I do like how after all the pomp and ritual and careful gestures and words and movements, the ceremony of it all... when the messenger picks up the contract, Leto asks him on a way almost embarrassed and unsure "so... it's done?" It's such a monumental moment for his House and him that he's still unsure if there's other steps to take in this ceremony. The messenger didn't have to say anything, but I liked how he paused, and for a moment the 'official' side of him lowered a tad, and he reassured Leto that it was indeed done. All that... for a stamp in gold wax. No wonder Leto was unsure if there was more involved in the process.

Villeneuve's Dune is to cinema as Baldur's Gate 3 is to video games. Love letters to each.

This movie has the single best representation of The Voice I've seen/heard. The Gom Jabar scene is masterpiece in itself.
