Dune opened in Theaters tonight. I thought it was well done. 8/10
Casting was great, loved the characters. Pacing was good. My family members unfamiliar with the story enjoyed it as well.
Go see it in IMAX it is visually immersive and powerful.

The book is a commentary on imperialism and doesn’t apologize for requiring actual thinking.

Seems like this would be better as a TV series instead of cramming everything
