@nemessica and now that it's pointed out, the dune influences on star wars is super obvious
@phessler I liked "Children of Dune" way more, still don't know why. Tbh, Herbert's Dune is to me a book/saga which shouldn't have a movie adaptation; every time it's not what it would be - plans within plans within plans, it's almost impossible to depict.
@phessler I meant 'Children of Dune' miniseries*.
@nemessica I loved the book. had to turn off the movie as soon as I saw Sting in that codpiece. It became way too difficult to suspend disbelief then.
