New Dune miniseries

[Slynky]

"Dune" was definitely a great SciFi novel. Of course, one had to read the rest of the trilogy after book one.

I'm afraid, for me, the trilogy went downhill a bit when it spent increasingly more time "discussing" religion. And, I would tend to make the same remark about "Stranger in a Strangeland". Perhaps it was because I was in my late teens and early twenties.

I'd say it would be hard for anyone to turn "Dune" into a movie as great as the book but that's usually a problem with any good book. Having said that, I would trust Peter (of LOTR fame) with it.
