Dune and its sequels are among the greatest Sci-Fi novels ever written. Asimov’s “Foundation” trilogy, Larry Niven’s “Ringworld” (yes, it’s a bit “pulpy” at times, but the concept is absolutely brilliant), and among more modern books, Alistair Reynold’s “Revelation Space” trilogy, are other examples of truly great sci-fi.

I know, there are many, many more that could be mentioned, but those are the first few that come to mind.

I’ve always wondered why ‘The Mote in God’s Eye’ has not been brought to the big screen.

I haven’t yet read Foundation, but I have read Dune and Ringworld.
I’m glad the first movie came out so well. I’m eagerly awaiting the second movie.
I’m also waiting for someone to put Ringworld to the screen. If and when they do, I hope they do a good job of it.
