It's too awesome in scale and depth to be adapted for a three hour film or "Sci-Fi Miniseries". I love the book, it is my all time favorite.
What I would like to see, however, would be small focused shorts; that could go over well I think (sort of how Neill Blomkamp and Jackson did those Halo shorts).
- jerf 16y agoThe Sci-Fi miniseries is decent, if and only if you understand it as "a pretty decent theatrical adaptation recorded on film" rather than "a movie". For instance, the Baron's theatrical monologues should be understood as exactly that: theatrical monologues. The use of color in lighting is also very theatrical.
- devinj 16y agoThe Dune miniseries was wonderful. I watched it as a kid and never got over it. It's a very nostalgic thing for me. Maybe it doesn't match up to the book, but if I ever read the book it would only be because of the miniseries and comments that the book is even better.
