This is apparently what the Finns look like in 20,000 years into the future
>>224283071Harkonnens always felt vaguely Russian to me as a movie-only watcher, so I guess that works.
>>224283071why are they all bald
>>224283114Dune has no aliens so the director tried to make the Harkonnens look as alien as possible.I liked the Dune aesthetics, even though in the books they're not bald
>>224283071In the far future greeks look like this
>>224283114in the DUNC movie, the scenes taking place in Giedi Prime are very desaturated, almost black and white, meaning their sun doesnt work like ours and the people there are all bald and pale as result.
>>224283071I wonder if they'll follow the plot of Dune Messiah, including the bitter ending, or if they'll try to portray Paul in a more "cool" appearance for fan service reasons
>>224283071They look Finnish desu
>>224283071They look like this THOUGH.
>>224283278Technically feyd had black hair
meanwhile...back in the domain of the real world
>>224283186Reading the start of the first book really made me think of rimworld for some reason. Like the technology being half half you know?
>>224283278damn, a lot of movies used to be just weird fetish shit made by gay directors
>>224283528Vlad always was a degenerate fag.
>>224283099They felt that way in the books too. Got names like Boris and suchlike
>>224283071I look like this today
The author of the book apparently saw the Finnish name Härkönen in the telephone directory and thought it sounded Russian by some logic, so they are supposed to be Russians but they have a Finnish name.
>>224283880He wrote it during the cold war when it was assumed Russia and America would be pioneering space colonization.Which means the harkonens are also Soviets
>>224283099iirc they are supposed to be and the author thought it was a russian-sounding name or something
>>224283071Harkonnen is literally derived from ''Härkönen'', which Herbert thought sounded vicious but it is just a finnish name he found in a phonebook.
>>224283528Vlad Harkonnen is canonically a gay pedophile rapist though
>>224283071so how will the second Finno-Korean Hyperwar play out?
