Dune: Prophecy

Slow start as expected, a lot of info in that episode. We'll see how it develops, it was interesting enough that I will keep watching. Production value seemed good.

As a Dune fan (since 1977)....I absolutely hated it.
Everything about it screamed cheap drivel....glorified fan fiction.

Travis Fimmel was the only good thing about it.

Seemed to be a lot of mixed reaction to it. We'll see where it goes. It does feel like they are trying too hard and it comes across a bit flat.

Biggest problem is basing it on one of Frank's sons books....that are truly juvenile compared to the 6 Frank Herbert originals, and as far as I'm concerned...non-canon.
I'm pretty sure if Frank were alive and someone told him the setup for this series, he would have strongly objected.
