I think trying to find the book in the movie is useless, there's already the book for that, and the movie can't really be better at being a book than the book.

I think trying to find the book in the movie is useless, there's already the book for that, and the movie can't really be better at being a book than the book. I don't have many memories of Dune, but I have still strong ones of Hyperion, and I don't think I would ever be satisfied by a movie that attemps to be just the book. On the other hand, I would be fine with Villeneuve adapting it with his usual style (though maybe Hyperion is a bit too organic for his style? It's hard to say). > A better style of movie > It wasn't bad, but it certainly wasn't good. I think it was great.
