    For anyone who didn't read the book, a bit of context on Dr. Yueh, since he was one of the characters that got really shorted by the film. He wasn't a delusional fool desperate for his wife's return. He already knew that the Harkonens had killed her, he wanted to be sure. Everything he did, betraying the Atreides, was towards his true goal: killing the Baron. And he knew that the Baron would never put himself into a vulnerable position unless he believed he was utterly victorious.

    I suppose I need to read it again. One of the VERY few complaints I have about this movie is that the audience isn't made aware how significant that diamond tattoo is. The Imperial Suk School training is known to be absolutely unbreakable. The audience misses out on two things because of this. #1 Having that diamond tattoo basically makes a person 100% above suspicion. #2 It shows just how cruel and manipulative the Baron is. The fact that he fk'd Dr. Yueh's mind up bad enough to make him a traitor would seem like he had done the impossible.

He mentally says his finally goodbyes to his wife and son and family before finally building the resolve to break the poison filled false tooth, killing him instantly. I had to put the book down after that chapter. So intense and saddening.

    2:30-I find that little detail-of Baron Harkonen turning on his shield before leaning down to hear what Leto was saying. “But why,” one might ask. “Why take such precaution when there’s no obvious threat, no reason to assume anything is amiss or out of his control?” I think I have an answer. Vladimir simply feared the Duke of Calidan that much. Even stripped naked of all weapons and defenses, with his legions shattered, his household lost, his family apparently dead, betrayed and condemned to death by the Emperor himself, Leto Atreides still made the Baron afraid of him. And, as it turned out, rightly so.

    That part was a tad rushed. In the book, it was Piter who killed Yueh. After, Yueh tells him “You think I haven’t gained anything for wife?” Leto on the other hand began hallucinating and Piter was asked to see what Leto was saying. Leto’s hallucinations made him mistaken Piter for the Baron. So he actually sprayed Piter, not the Baron.

    I think Ian McNiece sold it well in the Sci-FI channel series. Being both egotistical and intelligent (a rare combination), he wants everybody to know how clever he is. But I don't think it would have worked for Stellan Skarsgard's version of the Baron. He's introspective, not egotistical. More like a brute force of nature; a tornado that you don't see coming until the funnel forms right on top of you.

You can briefly see Yueh's head in the Baron's hand as he turns, and there are two thuds, one where Yueh's body hits the ground and one where his head hits the ground. For all his gluttony and sloth, the Baron himself is still physically powerful and monstrous.

    Kenneth McMillan's Baron was like the Joker, if he got fat. A Comic-book villain. Ian McNiece's Baron was just the right mixture of egomaniac and intelligence that he made the comicbook-esqe Baron believable. But Stellan Skarsgard's Baron isn't egomaniacal at all. He's cold and intelligent. He doesn't telegraph his presence like a raging bull (Glossu Rabban), so that you know he's coming long before he gets there. No, Skarsgard's Baron is like a force of nature -- a tornado you don't see coming until the funnel forms right over your head.

It not only showcases how gluttonous he is, but also how he views most matters as a distraction from his pleasures, and thus wipes them away with a nonchalant wave of the hand. The Baron is brilliant but lazy, and if he had his way, he’d have the entire universe serving him as he pigged out. Hell, that’s basically his grand plan, endless power and wealth for endless pleasure.

    2:44 I like this moment better in the movie than in the book. In the book, while Piter and several guards do fall dead, the Baron just leans back and goes “well, that could have been dangerous!” and leaves the room like nothing happened. It was a strike to the face for any reader who thought Leto would go out like a hero, for the person directly in front of him to not have suffered even the tiniest bit. This, and the fact that the Baron has to slowly recuperate from the poison throughout the movie, puts a little more power behind Leto and the Atreides name as a whole.

    That's not how it happens in the book. The Baron is never close to Leto to be poisoned and still barely manages to escape the room through a side exit. It's Piter who leans over Leto and gets a face full of poison gas since Leto thinks it's actually the Baron. It's in the Baron's own thoughts that he eluded the Duke's revenge only through dumb luck and that he might as well have died in that room. It's one of the very few times we see the Baron actually shaken by an experience, only for that feeling to be compounded when the Sardaukar lieutenant appears out of nowhere to order him around and reprimands him for the Duke's treatment. I like the movie's version as well, since it's more cinematic this way.

He demands to know why he is crying and hence the reason Piter has to lean in and deal with it. I really wish we'd get to see more of Piter, I know he dies and I know most of his machinations happened before all of this takes place but it would have been cool to see Piter in action! Piter figuring out the play, and Piter torturing the Doctors wife simply because I would have liked to have seen what they did to her, and I really want to see these pain amplification chambers.

    It's not so crazy when you're creating something you care about, and every little detail or moment is an opportunity to showcase things like characterization and visual scrutiny, especially if you're adapting a text already so rich with tiny details like Dune. I get it, a lot of people have beef with "over-analysis", probably because they remember having to analyze a book in school that felt like only your English teacher cared about it. But it's a real skill, not just for consumers, but for creators too. It is how good media is made.

    Leto sensed memories rolling in his mind--the old toothless mutterings of hags. The room, the table, the Baron, a pair of terrified eyes--blue within blue, the eyes--all compressed around him in ruined symmetry. There was a man with a boot-toe chin, a toy man falling. The toy man had a broken nose slanted to the left: an offbeat metronome caught forever at the start of an upward stroke. Leto heard the crash of crockery--so distant--a roaring in his ears. His mind was a bin without end, catching everything. Everything that had ever been: every shout, every whisper, every . . . silence. One thought remained to him. Leto saw it in formless light on rays of black: The day the flesh shapes and the flesh the day shapes. The thought struck him with a sense of fullness he knew he could never explain. Silence.

    Though not explicitly stated, Dr Yeoui cannot kill, which is why he had to use Leto as his proxy assassin. He stuns the guards as he initiates his betrayal of House Atreides, leaving them paralyzed on the floor with their eyes still open and aware. He comes closer to the Baron than any other adversary in this scene and the Baron, fully aware of the Dr's conditioning, makes a point of approaching him to well within striking distance and lingering there for some time, fully confident that the Dr simply cannot bring himself to do him harm. Otherwise the agreement with the Baron would have involved the Dr outright killing Leto himself in order to save his wife, whereas the current deal has the Dr bring Atreides down without directly killing anyone by his own hand. So much implied and understated in this absolute gem of a movie which only seems to get better and reveal more intricate details with every viewing. Not sure about poor Shadout though. Her death is the only thing i can't reconcile with the Dr's hyper-hypocratic sensibilities.

    Well in the books the Baron kept his subjects under control by a combination of fear and greed/addiction. For most of henchmen he probably kept their families hostage via the threat of torture or slavery while providing them some form of "entertainment". I do know that the Baron kept Piter under control via his spice addiction, while it was deeply implied that said mentant was into many perversions (which considering the endless slave pits of Giedi Prime, the Baron was able to provide). As for Head Rabban, his voice was violence and (to a lesser extent) gluttony. With his uncle in power he was free to exercise those against the fremen. Only Fay was more difficult to manage, but he was the heir apparent. Which brings us to Dr Yue. Under the assumption that his wife was alive what would have kept him loyal to house Harkonnen? He hated them and would probably plot against them. In tandem, the Baron showed that the Sook conditioning could be broken, which would have created a mini-crisis in the empire. If the doctor of a great house was broken, then no one was safe. And with his wife dead what use could a broken doctor who could harm people be to the Baron. Thus it was best just to kill him off and hit multiple birds with one stone.

    The Duke was a good man in a universe that was paranoid, ruled by a paranoid Emperor. A good man is popular to the houses, and so the Emperor wants him dead. The Navigators want Paul dead, because they understand more of what is going on and see the Bene Gesserit as their enemy. Hidden among the Fremen and keeping his head down, like the desert mouse, OR becoming the revenging son and leading the Fremen against the Harkonnens and the Emperor by becoming the Hand of God became the choice. Each of the moons of Arrrakis shows how deeply this choice is built in: the mark on the first moon is called The Hand of God, and the second moon has The Mouse Shadow. We shall see what choices Paul makes and where they lead.

    In interviews he basically said he trained all his life, made all those previous movies as an exercise in order to make this adaptation. The way I understand it, he always wanted to make that movie, from day one. So that might explain a thing or two about the end result we are enjoying so far. Can't wait for the next part.

    In the books, at least, he is not strong. Or particularly gluttonous. The story can get kind of convoluted. But basically, when he was a young man, the benegeserit basically blackmailed him for his sperm*. Things didn't work out well the first time, so they went after him a second time- and that's where things get fucky. Basically, The Baron is a horrible sadist who gets off on torture and murder. The first time he had a hard time keeping it up. The second time he beat on the Benegeserit woman to keep it up. The thing about the Benegeserit though, is that they have basically total control over their own biology. She basically had several varieties of engineered virus held dormant in her body to use as weapons of last resort- and she basically released a horrible degenerative disease on him that made it almost impossible for him to retain muscle, and easy for him to gain weight. The thing about the Baron was that he was *very* proud of his appearance. He had been quite handsome and his physique, immaculate. The benegeserit in question chose this virus *specifically* to torment him and make him miserable. These days, the baron cannot even move under his own power- he need an anti-gravity harness to get around. BTW, the child of this union would be Lady Jessica, Mother of Paul Atreides. So the Baron is unknowingly conspiring to kill his daughter and grandchildren. Not that he'd particularly care if he did know. *The Benegeserit have a Eugenics program. It's complicated, and if you really want to know I'll explain it, but the hows and why's are pretty involved.

    It was a good choice, in the books the poison did absolutely nothing to the baron. He said something like “well that could have been bad” - the problem with that it is made the bro look powerless, you’re hoping he’s heroic and goes out with an impact but in the books other than killing the Barons mentat who was in the room (which ultimately lead to the Barons downfall) he basically died for nothing. The only way to make him look cool and heroic is have the poison do some damage without actually killing off a main villain.
