I am not familiar with the source material, but the story is just typical chosen one almost like 90's JRPG (I do know the book is old, before subverting the monolith was cool).
Unless the story pull something like mistborn Still entertaining af thougj and honestly after 2 years not going to theather, watching it in imax was amazing --- http://i.imgtc.com/iJyp6bF.png http://i.imgtc.com/ZBw36Qh.png Thanks for the peeps that made the pics <3 if i make typos it means i am on phone ...

The series gets weird as fuck and certainly less traditional later on, but book 1 is still the best.
Book 4 is really good but I don't know how well it would translate to film. --- I am the Cheese! I am the best character on the show! I am better than both the salami and the bologna COMBINED! ... Copied to Clipboard!

A Dune adaptation always runs the risk of being boring and this one doubly so since they only adapted part of the book, but I think they made the part of the story they told as exciting as they could have.

What makes it interesting is that the chosen one prophecies are a complete plant. The Bene Gesserit have had a breeding program for centuries because they want a perfect man to rule the galaxy with. They also seeded Arrakis with a version of this prophecy so the natives would be susceptible to them when they came around. It's all some space witch illuminati bullshit.

In fact theyre still writing them the 22nd one isnt even published yet, its set to be released next year. So there could be even more when alls said and done. SauI_Goodman posted... Most are not good lol Oh yeah lol I forgot to mention in my original post, all of the non-Frank Herbert ones are considered far inferior to the original 6. --- "If you wanna grow your business you need to exploit more." ~Austin_Era_II "Out of those two?

holy moly! that's a whole lotta books! O_oMost fans like to pretend that there are only 6. Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson say that they've worked off of Frank Herbert's notes. I've seen others say that Frank only left a half page of notes at best. I don't know how true that is. --- I am the Cheese! I am the best character on the show!
