I’ll expand. The new movies are good but they’re just… Bland? Generic sci-fi with no pizazz IMHO. Lynch version is flawed AF but it was a superior sci-fi movie.
Dune as a whole is bland, generic sci-fi. Ok, I guess that’s unfair. When it was written, it was groundbreaking and unique, but it was so good that over time it’s tropes have been reused again and again in other sci-fi. So from a modern perspective, it all feels generic.
Understandable. The 1984 Dune movie has some unique charm to it. though by pretty much every metric, the new films are objectively better. Though I do very much prefer Kyle McLachlan as Paul Atriedes.

my 10 year old really likes that one. we watch it as a group and crack jokes the whole time, absolutely a blast

I’ll die on that cross.
