This would have been better as a series. That way there's actually weight and compelling payoffs to things that happened to some of the characters. The movie felt kind of rushed, they just dropped you into this vibrant universe without a lot of context.

With the various houses, characters, technically, lore and everything else it could have very well been a Game of Thrones in space.

Agreed. This would've been a much better TV series.

Duke Leto Atreides demise was supposed to be something very significant as far as the overall story. It was supposed to mean something to the viewer and I can't really imagine it did since you barely know the guy (same thing goes for Duncan Idaho).

By comparison look at how compelling and tragic Ned Stark's death was at the end of the first season of Game of thrones. Even Paul isn't as compelling as somebody like Jon Snow (or even Rob)

They kind of blew it but I'll still watch the movies and try to enjoy them.

I believe the Hyperion Cantos series could be the next potential Game of Thrones in space series that we could get one day.

There's a give and a take. The movies won't have quite as much depth to the characters (although I've heard they shot a lot of footage that maybe one day will come out on future release) but the movies do justice to the aesthetic that a TV series usually cannot provide.

It wasn't until the later years where Game of Thrones had enough money to really make everything look great
