Mine too.
Remember the part where the Baron gives Thufir a "machine" that has an albino cat and an albino rat harnessed inside it? Very memorable and weird. But probably shouldn't be anyone's first foray into Lynch or Dune.
That scene is so wild because they completely drop the "poisoning Thufir so he works for us" plot. The scene should have been cut entirely and I say that as a major Thufir fan.
In my head-Canon every Baron scene was so over the top just to make sure the audience wouldn't blink too hard when they unveiled the cat/rat contraption. By the time it rolls around you're kinda like "yeah, sure, this thing checks out..."
