I watched Dune last night. Surprisingly it wasn't terrible. Fight scenes were top notch.

Try to watch it with good video and sound. I was using a crappy monitor and shit download and regret it because the cinematography and set design were very good. I prey all the capeshit cucks don't ruin the franchise by hugging it to death. There was some globo homo shit. I did not like chani or black Liet Kynes. The Fremen were also seemingly multi racial. Javier Bardem didn't have many lines but held his own as Stilgar.

Shoutout to u/jasoncarswell for making the https://saidit.net/s/dune subverse.

Thanks for noticing. IMO, Dune is dry (literally and figuratively) but at least incorporates more interesting complex politics than just typical sci-fi good vs evil. Plus some of the concepts are so unique they stick in my mind decades after reading them. These alone influence my own unshared work, if only in general aspiration.
