I hear good things about it but sadly I’ve become suspicious of any adaptations made in the time we live in. I have the next two books and may just stick to that. Zendaya as well is like the poster child for race swapping.

Man, I love the Lynch 1984 version. It's craptacular and weird, but it's got some great parts and, imho, is a lot of fun. Paul is great. True to the book it is not.
I haven't seen the 2000 miniseries in some time, but it was OK. I remember thinking Princess Irulan was hot.
Lynch got the casting right and then let his creatives overcook things.
Harrison got the story right but the acting wasn't great and the effects couldn't make up for the bland performance.
I watched it in college. It was quite dull
I didnt mind the 1984 version. Sure it wasnt true to the book but what movie ever is.
I know it wasn't really a question but oddly, Silence of the Lambs was the only movie I can think of that was nearly word for word of the book. It's so close that the book reads like a novelization of the movie even though it came first.
