I mean I don't even know where did they get the materials. Also I'm guessing it's a fan-service-fest like no other.

I read it was based on Brian's books, which just about every Dune fan I've ever spoken to has completely ignored. I know I have. Hell, I haven't even finished the last two Frank books (frankly it's just a weird slog after God Emperor).

Idk I'm not terribly surprised. I'm here to see the main Dune saga brought to the wider public finally, so non-readers will at least get to see the point and not just be left watching Paul "win" again. Anything else is unnecessary until we get there IMO.
