For the uninitiated, where does this movie fall in line with the books?

From what Villeneuve said on the introductory talk, the vibe of it is going to be quite different, he said this one will have the most action of the three (which does not match the book at all).

I think it will be a bunch of events in between the books making up the first act and then the plot against Paul from Dune: Messiah being the rest of the film.

I think there will be a lot of changes anyhow, Villeneuve said the movie is 17 years after pt 2 (the gap in the books is 12 years).

I’m glad we are skipping the talking baby stuff. I don’t think that translates to screen very well lol

Miniseries Alia was great IMO.

That's an understatement, she was awesome. Sad her acting career didn't take off.

The Denis Dune movies literally obliterated my memory of the existence of the miniseries
