Since Dune has been called the brainiest science fiction franchise, I doubt the 2020 Dune remake will be better than the Syfy series. Im afraid theyll mimic Brian Herberts lousy prequels and attempts to finish the series, dumbing it down for the sake of popular appeal, while the fan base is told youre bad or worse for not liking it.
BTW I utterly detest some of Brian's work. Nowhere near all, but for me some of it stinks on ice. 'Nuff said...
I actually really liked the prequels but I saw more of Kevin J. Anderson in the writing.
Then again, I’m just sitting back waiting for a Foundation or Rama series of films.
