    I think Dune has very many themes, but the biggest one is the dangers of religion (which is not really portrayed in the movie I think)

      The 2022 movie covers the first half of the first book and that theme only really comes into its own in books 2 and 3.

        The original movie was good for the art direction and fantastic acting by supporting characters.

        That’s kinda where it ends though, comparing the two of them, the new Dune features human emotion which is pretty cool; all the main characters were kind of animatronic feeling in the old one imo.
