Denis outdid himself in every way.
I was worried how he was going to handle Alia, but choosing to keep the span of the film short enough to keep her in the womb was brilliant. The conversations with her were weird, but it would have been much worse if we had to see her deal the death blow to the Baron.
Choosing not to explore Thufir’s suspicions of Jessica cost him a spot in Part 2. It was his plot in the books to not drug one of the Atreides prisoners that fought Feyd. Speaking of, Austin Butler is no longer Elvis. What a transformation, especially watching him in Masters of Air lately.
I don’t care how short it was, Josh Brolin - Best Original Song as the 2025 Oscars.

Brilliant?
I enjoyed the movie but why leave out alia and thufir for the end confrontation with the emperor? It was Alia that the reverend mother calls “abomination”, not paul. Paul is what they were trying to create.
They could’ve cut out 30 minutes of the water of life stuff and introduced these themes.
Also, no spacing guild presence in the final scene? They were the ones who advised the emperor paul was not bluffing about the nukes, because they could see the future in which paul actually does it.
In the book, It is paul’s mentat abilities along with prescience that assists him with calculating his plan to take the throne. His ability surpasses jessica, and she fears him. She does not fear him in the movie.
Lastly, Chani and Paul has a child at this point, Leto. He was killed around the time of the battle… sort of a major thing to leave out. She wasnt just his GF. Not to mention she was Kynes’s daughter, also left out.

That guy is so damn terrifying in this thing it's astonishing. I didn't think I'd ever not see him as Elvis but he's just such a gifted actor I don't doubt him in ANY role now.
I saw it in Imax Saturday. It's one of the best movies ever made. Go ahead and add it to that list. We'll argue about where it lies, but it's on that list.
