Interesting finds! The new Palace also matches the Emperor’s landing craft better.
But who’s landing on Geidi Prime then? The Mentat bringing Leto’s message?The Fremen Sietch model will work, I like that weird design from Krull.
I’d like to see your results, please share them someday 😉
Yeah i would say the Mentat bringing Leto’s message is the only possible answer.
If it were recreated then perhaps showing a Landed ship would suffice with the concept art enhanced i some way. Perhaps some animated smoke would do. that fighter which looks distictly Harkonan would suffice.
It would be better to use the big battlecruiser at the end of the film from Battle beyond the stars for the emerors arrival.
I got that scene wrong from trailer this is during hunter seeker flashback but I think this shot is meant to be the place mohiam dare not look. Witch and the Fire. Swap though for Paul Atreides and fire. “you will see me there looking back at you”
when they wash the Blood and flesh off the floor on Geidi prime this is the aftermath of the sting knife fight where he kills sandakar captain so yes it was filmed.
The more and more I read the only 2 main plot points missing are.
-
Teraforming - This was adapted into the rain on Arrakis ending. No it is not raining all over the planet. So covered although altered entirely.
-
Paul loses his son in Harkonnen raid which would be the reason for the Speech and Long live the fighters.
Rabaan in the desert is filmed though so you could show the Sietch and some fighters blasting it followed by Rabaan in desert perhaps after water of Life sequence. This would make the Revenge Speech much better it would fill in that blank and give much more meaning to the revenge after an attack on their home. Pauls Speech occurs on his return then but motivated by both knowledge and revenge.
Lynch really did have it covered in 3 hours as an adaptation that covered the main plot.
