That's basically the opposite of a problem. Star Wars was able to grew into the ultimate franchise starting with just a desert, a forest, a swamp, a cloud city, and a space station.
Whoever [0] has the rights to Dune should be a good shepherd, announce a contest for new stories set in the Dune universe.
[0] Brian Herbert. Maybe finally he can let go of his ambition to finish Dune. Or maybe he meant it in the mortal kombat sense?
- enkid 5y agoDidn't he "complete" the original series? Isn't that what Sandworms of Dune was? (Though he seems to keep mining side stories out the wazoo)
- decafninja 5y agoI thought the majority of old school fans hated the BH/KJA sequels?
- pas 5y agoThey did. Dune 7 come out as Hunters of Dune in 2006. It's ... ok. (No, it's really not, but no point in dwelling on it. It's just not the same Dune. Frank wrote each book because he had very specific ideas, experiences, concepts, thoughts, problems in his mind. Brian wrote it to "finish" the saga. I very much recommend this amazing talk about the context of the original books: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWDCgKdmly4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWDCgKdmly4 ... and I think there's simply no point in "finishing" Dune, because it's like StarWars or StarTrek, there's no end to it. Just as there's always a new/old/forgotten/prodigal Skywalker, there's always an Atreides somewhere :))
