    1984 Dune is a very mixed bag despite the pedigree of the folks making it

      It’s still my favorite version. Though, I still wonder if Jowarsky’s Dune would have been better.

        Have you watched the Sci-fi channel miniseries? I think that one (especially since it also has Messiah and Children) is the best. Not the best graphics, or filming, or acting, but the best as a whole.

          James McAvoy as Leto II when he was an unknown actor and an incredible soundtrack are both good reasons to watch the miniseries, particularly the second one.

        Based on his comics I’m going to say it would be a classic, but mostly in a “can’t believe they filmed that” sense.
