Dune is one of those unique books that can never be satisfactorily be made into a movie. Fans simply have too many personal takes on the characters, the story, the meaning, and the visuals.

Agree... no movie can match the world I created in my mind when I read the books way back when.

That is exactly why I don’t like to see a filmed version of science fiction (or pretty much anything) after I have read the book. The movie’s pictures never match what I envisioned while reading. I’ll never watch The Lord of the Rings, nor Starship Troopers; the list goes on and on.

Got talked into seeing Dune back when it came out. It sucked.
