    I think the last Marvel movie I saw in theaters was Black Panther. Definitely watching Dune over Avengers, and only in IMAX.

      Villeneuve has said he is only going to make Dune and Dune Messiah as films.

      Dune is what has been done so far (parts 1 and 2)

      Dune Messiah explores the aftermath of Paul Atreides supplanting the Emperor after the events of Dune.

      Children of Dune gets weird

      God Emperor of Dune is batshit. Leto’s kid is a 30000yo sandworm who talks to at least 5 characters about how he doesn’t have a dick

      Heretics is where the bene gesserit are now just space dominatrixes because frank herbert’s mind had been fried by acid & coke and he was REALLY horny

      Chapterhouse has live dogs that have been genetically engineered to be chairs called chairdogs

          Nah. Children is not fully off the rails. Just getting weird. God emperor is off the rails. Then heritics is fully derailed. And chapterhouse is off the rails 100 miles out in the desert high on mescaline

      Third book things start to get real interesting! But yeah, like someone replied, Dune Part 3 is based on the Second Book, Dune Messiah

        I honestly don’t know how they gonna cast Ghanima and Leto II for a movie on the sequels, i really hope they skip, at least some parts from the Children of Dune

          Given that they skipped Pauls sister in Parts 1 and 2, it would provably happen something similar.

          My biggest concern is that Dennis said he would only direct until Dune Messiah, not more. Don’t know the reasons but i suspect the fact that it gets much crazier its the reason

            I didn’t watched the movies, they really skipped Alia ? Well, thinking better, it makes sense, but who killed the baron Harkonnen on the movie ?

              Spoiler

              Paul kills him, knife to the neck. Alia appears only in one vision from Paul, already a woman

                  Yeah, I know.

                  I’ve read all 6 books, loved all of them.

                  I first saw the first and second parts and then read the books, really happy I did. I really enjoyed the movies, they are a cinematic treat to the senses. Storywise I prefer the books by a long shot.
