Ya know I have to say I feel nearly the same about Dune.
I haven’t gotten to the the later books but the first 2 have made me love the movies more. Not that I love the the books any less though.
There is very little nuance lost in the movies and the changes that are made I can understand from a film making point of view.
I guess what I mean to say is I appreciate the differences and it makes me like both more rather thank either any less.
Yeah Denis Villeneuve is a wonderful story teller. The book gives great context to what the characters are thinking and that was where Lynch failed trying to put that on screen when it wasn’t needed for the medium.
Don’t bother with the rest of the books unless you’re into heavy philosophy. The new movies are pleasantly close to the books which made me love them as well
