This looks so great. I love that they are focusing on the prophecy and all that entails.
I can see that. I can’t say I despised it, but I was a little disappointed. What didn’t you like?
For me, I thought Denis Villeneuve could have added more emotional weight to the story. Overall I liked the movie. If I see it in a DVD bin I’ll probably pick it up, but I’m not going out of my way to watch Part 1 again.
I did too. Crazy to think so many people find it a great adaptation cause I feel like it misses the point of what made the books so amazing by quite a lot.
Care to elaborate? As a book reader I thought it was a really faithful adaptation, about as good as it gets. I do miss some of the cut bits, especially the character development of Yeoh and some of the context around CHOAM, but the meat and philosophy of the story is there. Hopefully part 2, which really gets into the good part of the story, keeps up that trend.
As someone who read a few of the books, I legitimately despised part 1.

Are there more than one adaptation? I know about the David Lynch but haven’t been paying attention since then. So I don’t know which one is good.
Scifi Channel did one as a miniseries. It was… Not great.
Idk I reread Dune annually and thought it was about as good of an adaptation as one could hope.
