I haven't read the entire series, (I am WAY behind on my planned reading -- SE4 seems to take up a lot of my spare time again lately!) but I enjoyed the miniseries quite a bit. As far as the Dune films go, I think the biggest problem people had w/ the Lynch Version when it was released is that so much was edited out to make it feature length that the film wound up having no continuity. Director's cut is much better IMO, I went from hating the movie to actually liking it (somewhat). I have to agree with whomever made the point about not including the sonic weapons in the Sci-Fi Version, they are emphasized as being really revolutionary tech in the book.
