Much like the Rings Of Power this is an unnecessary prequel, made about a time in the story's history that is frankly pretty fucking dull.
Why not do a show about The Butlerian Jihad? That would surely be a much more worthwhile exercise, especially given AI's modern day rise.
These half arsed series that are made to squeeze as much money out of a franchise with as little effort as possible are irritating in the extreme. Either commit fully to something epic and interesting, or don't fucking bother.

I swear that if Timothée Chalamet comes to Mexico, I'm going to force him to autograph the Lies of P game for me.

It's just soulless content for the streaming machine. My only hope is that it does well enough for them to maybe do the rest of franks books after Messiah.

Isn't that kind of the point in Dune? Some tech is straight up banned in the lore.

If the script is good it will be worth a watch.
This would be dope.
That's... hot.

It’s based on worthless shit prequel novels written by Herbert’s son. They’re TERRIBLE.

I got the same problem with The Acolyte. 1000 years and everything still is based on the same technology. It’s the opposite to Star Trek Discovery, when old tech suddenly is more modern than new one.

Let's hope the script is unfaithful as fuck.

I'm always up for more lore, especially in regard to Dune.

I thought it'd be OC... This shit is even worse. At least if we knew it was OC there's a chance it wouldn't be shit.

Oh fuck. I didn’t realise this was based on Brian Herbert’s effluence!
It’ll be terrible. Never was a worse case of a talentless hack getting a job just ‘cause of his daddy.

That's the premise of the series after thr Butlerian Jihad. And i kinds dig it.
If that grinds your gears don't look into Warhammer 40k. It's 10k+ years without any significant progress. But you know, they ripped off Dune, so...
Wow, Raised by Wolves got a new season?!?!?!? Oh...wait 
Are we gonna see a Navigator in this? The aesthetics look good, though hard to say if the cinematography can keep up. And the BG are basically conducting a breeding program based on eugenics and deliberate abortions of unwanted genders so hard to say how the optics are gonna go. Better have the Bene Tleilax as well.

It seems to be only about Bene Gesserit. I would like to see other houses more.

I get that.
It's like Knights of the Old Republic. Set around 4000 years before A New Hope, yet the technology on display is exactly the same. Just looks a little different.
