This doesn't feel like Dune, it feels like generic SyFy slop, "Game of Thrones was popular let's do a Game of Thrones", Bridgerton in space, CW drama with occasional spaceships. Meh.

Dune was never ever good

I am still mystified at why people think it is good. I've read the first few books and I kept waiting for something to pull me in but it just doesn't. The world building is okay, the characters suck, the way they all talk is straggy, and Herbert does a ton of exposition dumping. Worms are cool though and Villeneuve did the best he could with the source material (Blade Runner/Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep are way better).

The first 2 books are basically one book, I thought I was missing something with the second book being so short.

You're like people that only read The Hobbit and then say the rest of the series is trash.

Why did you compare it to a completely different set of works?

I kept hearing how Dune is smart and dense and I guess it is slightly smart but it's really not that dense or hard to follow at all. Nor is it THAT smart. You just get a lot of the characters inner thoughts while they puzzle out what their opponent might be thinking but what their opponent is thinking/their motivations are usually really obvious anyway.
