If you want a better adaptation, watch the 2000 miniseries version of it. It ran to nearly 5 hours and, contrary to this movie, your girlfriend won't have to wait two years to see how it turns out if she isn't interested in reading the book herself.

How can you watch the 2000 mini series version? I looked at all the streaming services and media vendors, and haven't found a way to get it. It does seem like Dune would be better served by a mini series....perhaps 10 or 13 hours of screen time for the first book.

Didn't you get the memo? The streaming industry fucked up, it's back to torrents again.

Edit: On DDG, search "dune miniseries <file-extension>", the second result has a working magnet link.

No idea, haven't searched for it. I bought the DVDs years ago. I just figured someone would have it out there on the Internet.
