For sure. But there will always be those so in love with a certain book or sci-fi world that they are susceptible to wish-casting a movie based on that world into something far greater than it actually is in reality. This is one of those scenarios.

I’m seeing it tomorrow (or technically today), but Villeneuve is one those directors where there was something about his style that appealed to me, even before I realized all those films were by the same director. I had this same convo with a friend the other day, who didn’t know which films he directed, and had the same realization when I started listing them.

I haven’t read a single word of the books and it was very possibly my favorite movie of the last decade. It 100% lived up to the hype from where I was sitting.
It’s okay that some people just have different opinions than you. You don’t need to explain away those opinions as wish-casting just because they don’t conform perfectly to your perspective. Frankly, that’s a rather odd mental state to default to
