I am very much looking forward to part 2 also!

I think the drama around the pain box and a couple of other moments was not as good as it could have been, IMHO, but it does do a good job of telling the story (so far), and things are on such a huge scale... very worthwhile. I sincerely hope they manage to film the first three books, at least.

I liked the Gom Jabar Scene, the pain box part that is, a little bit better in David Lynch's adoption. Jessica's despair about this whole thing was done better by Villeneuve, if you ask me.

If they pull of at least one more book, or even two, this will be on par with LotR if not a tad better. If the team can keep the level, that is.

I did like the original Dune movie a lot, one of the most under-valued films.
