Dunno why but I prefer the sandworm of the 80's David Lynch version.

The new version can't see the whole worm yet but I guess the second part they will show more of the worm.

Another thing the 80's version is better is the costume. The new version costume for the House of Atreides is a bit too bland.

Their costumes more elaborate in the first one but their armor and visual effects of the personal shields were yuckkkkk. I like the armor designs for this one and of course the personal shield effects wins hands down. Even the way they showed warheads penetrating the shields of the ships looked cool

My first encounter dune was Westwood studio games dune 2000. Still a legend game after final release emperor battle for dune. Then there a dune series on hallmark channels.

If my memory is not wrong, the navigators need to take spice to navigate safely through warp space.

Can't really compare special effects from the 80's to CGI tech today.

Even the original Star Wars effects and prequels look dated today.

Interstellar pilots (called Navigators) use spice to elevate their sense.

did not like the Dune series last time but was a big fan of the PC game Dune II
granddaddy of RTS for C&C and others.

anyone remember the old game.
your tanks or troop travelling across the sand may get eaten by the sand worms.
it was epic back then!

Yeah, the scenes with the Atreides ohnihopters really were well done. They blended entering the actual physical props with the CGI taking off nicely.

Beautiful movie man, please give us a sequel quick.
Yeah, not much room to cover action scenes in the first part

Its a great movie but it can only remain great if there's part 2 and part 3 and so on. That means only if this movie is a success. This 'part 1' is too much world building, its great but its going to takes time. A movie might not be a great way to approach this story but all the cast a movie actor though and i dont think we'll ever get any of them in a series, so yeah, how great this movie is depends on if it have continuation or not

I think this Dune is trapped between two requirements:
1. The book readers who wants the deep political, ecological, theological, philosophical dialogue/plot found in the book.
2. the studio's need to dumb it down and focus on visual aesthetics to cater to the masses

In trying to satisfy both... it fails to capture either audience.

If I am not mistaken, the spice is not space fuel.

It is used by navigators to navigate safely through warp space.

Dune warp space is not like Star Wars or Star Trek which rely on computers.

Dune world do not really have computers despite their advance tech.

Again if I am not mistaken, they have gone through terminator type past where there were wars with machines and that is why they abandoned computers.
