As someone who remembers watching the Lynch directors cut at a 24 sci-fi marathon and had no clue what was going on I felt like this movie did a good job introducing the world building without dwelling too much on the details. The various factions made sense and if I want more there are a lot of books to dive into.

'A lot' is painfully subjective in this case.
Depending on the school of thought there is just the one book (Dune); the six books by Frank Herbert; or those, plus all the output of Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson.
The implication being that not all books may appeal to everyone who enjoyed Dune (the book).

I am really looking forward to being able to spend some time in forums and with friends over the coming months (and years given how often I talk about the things I like over and over again) and see how the feelings for the Dune(2021) film correspond to peoples feelings on which books are a part of the series.
I am waiting to see the film until this weekend, so I will have to take my own impressions as a baseline and look forward to discussions and arguments on Dune saving from a dreadfully boring winter.
