Denis Villeneuve's Dune is evolution pure and simple. It's how you build something awesome from an awesome book. I do really like the 80s version but since I have to put sats in it, that's my answer.

Is it accurate? No, it's not. Do I care? No, because Denis didn't destroy the esence of Arrakis and the characters were beautifully composed in the movie. Yes, it's not like the book[1] however, the artwork worth those little arrangements.

  1. I'm currently reading 4/6 saga. The God-Worm is outstanding.

My take on comparing books to movies is that a movie will never do justice to the book. It cannot because they are two different media. A book is only limited by the imagination of the reader, whereas a movie must make everything visually knowable. I have liked all versions, so far. They are each focused differently, though.

What is 4/6 saga?

My bad. Frank wrote initially three books; Dune, Messiah and Children of Dune. Then three more: God Emperor, Heretics of Dune and finally Chapterhouse. Right now, I'm reading 4/6 intial saga which is God Emperor. Worth it.
