But 45 minutes of boring landscape shots of the desert are vital to the plot. And so are the 30 minutes of Shani dream sequences even though she only appears at the end of the movie as a background extra.
His establishing shots in the Dune movies were so long, that the combined run time of the 2 movies was equal to the 3 part Dune miniseries on Scifi, which were largely accurate to the books, and even included extra material, whereas Villeneuve's movies left out a ton of material, and changed a lot.
That's why I absolutely despite Dunc in every way possible. It's even worse than the 1984 Dune cinema cut. I rather watch blocky shields and sound guns than a Dune 'adaptation' that forgets to include the Spacing Guild and with it breaks the entire story. Captain Picard charging into battle holding a pug is infinitely better than expressionless Timothee twink and Zendaya.
Don't forget about the heavy dose of pretension.
And the incredibly long establishing shots that eat up half the movie, leaving little time for plot, action, or storytelling.
