I love the books, and 10 / 10 for balls in trying to turn it into a movie,
but it's one of those projects that's just too big to bite off until
holodeck technology comes into being. Far far too big, wide, deep etc...the
constant narration was just annoying.

Seeing Sting impaled was a bonus however.

Oh God. Any Star Wars or ST-TNG fans on the list too?!?

Actually, I rate the first Dune, although I like the National Lampoon
piss-take more - Paul has to complete a Rubiks Cube at the beginning. As a
Lynch fan, I even sort of like the film, although Sting's Flying-V
underpants take some getting used to.

Yeah, Shaitan, Shai Hulud, The Maker, etc, etc. Shit man, dunno why I
was so *sure* about that then. I think it's the Fremen pronounciation
of Jihad that has a 'sh' at the start. I'm literally embarrassed I got
it wrong!!!

Went through all six again a few years ago - amazing how a decade can
change you enough that you see totally different things in the books.
When I was 17 I was more interested in the hero-dom of Paul, whereas
my most recent read of them had me focusing on the whole philosophical
journey that Herbert was on whilst writing them.

There's a lot to learn from those books !
