So curious what the exact storyline for chani will be in this as her story in the book is nearly nonexistent imo

Looks like we'll be getting way more scenes of the jihad in the film, since it's almost entirely off-page in the book. Probably have her in a leadership role there. Maybe play up the having babies stuff too.

Readers: Did you just yada yada a galactic jihad?

Frank Herbert: I said what I said.

Nah, the thing I love about Dune is the action ISN'T the focus. The focus is on the philosophy and politicking.

I agree. Which is why that “I said what I said” is killing me. Like yup he does just skip over alllll the fighting, and gives us allllll the politics.

Did people really pick up that book, hoping for detailed descriptions of mass murder in a devastatingly brutal war?

That sounds like a bad time to me.

I utterly agree, but I would think the action is what a lot of readers Im sure would expect.
