I wouldn’t say that the recent Dune movies were were better than the Matrix. To this day, I have never seen a book for Matrix to compare the books. I like to compare the books as well as movies. If the Dune movies could go into the detail and complexity that is in the books, they would be far better than Matrix, but, alas, I don’t think it could ever be done.
This is a fantastic point. Judging just on movie metric then yea The Matrix is better than Dune one. It’s much more complete
reply
Yes, when just comparing movies, I think Matrix is much more complete.
But, I know much more about the Dune universe than I do the Matrix universe and that colors what I see in the movies.

That would have to be done in a streaming series. Otherwise, there's just way too much detail.

I could see them doing the Dune series for 10 to 15 years if they were to use all of the books in the Dune universe. The universe is huge: #730664
There would be no end to it. Of course, that would make it more interesting, too.
