jacek commented on Dune: Book one in the Dune Chronicles by Frank Herbert
Contains appendices and extra material.
Content warning Dune Book spoilers from first chapter // Dune movie spoilers from the first part
Differences between the book and the movie:
- Movie totally removed religion from the book. I remember than zensunni was important theme of the book;
- Movie also totally removed gender essentiallism from the book. This is good. It's XXI century you don't need a penis to see the future;
- Movie removed Butlerian Jihad. So far there was no explanation of lack of the thinking machines.
