Looks like an ornithopter cockpit lol. I liked the new Dune movies well enough, but there is (was) a lot of stuff in them that was kind of jarringly off. One thing was the ornithopter cockpit with the shitload of modern (our modern) switches that Duncan Idaho had to flip to get started, completely not fitting in at all with pretty much every other example of technology on display.
I recently saw the first movie again and it seems they had edited that part out, although maybe that was just for the TV version. They had also edited out the exchange where Duncan sees Paul on Arrakis for the first time and says “you look like you’ve put on some muscle.” “Really?” “No.” Just a terrible Marvel-style cheap laugh and the movie benefited from not having it there.
