They split the book in two. It was a questionable move even if they had the go ahead already which they don't.I watched the final trailer. I haven't been following any of the news, if any. This isn't a trilogy is it?
I saw the tag for next Star Wars and Lord of the Rings, which I think is stupid, but got me asking if they are stretching this out. Then at the end Zendaya says only the beginning. I know it's vague, but just led more thinking to being a trilogy.
I hope not. I know it can be a lengthy movie, but it can be only 1 film. I'm also ignorant on the book. I'm sure there can be more books and more stories told, but going off Lynch's movie. Long, but 1 movie.

Well, figure I'd answer my own question.
Dune Director Can Envisage a Film Trilogy, But Not 'Further Than That' - IGN
Dune director Denis Villeneuve already has plans for a trilogy, with a third movie adapting the second novel in Frank Herbert's bestselling series.www.ign.com
You're saying the movie is only half of the first book? Disappointing, but I've read the book (only the first) so while usually I'd be pissed to watch only half of something, at least I'm already familiar with the story.They split the book in two.

Yeah. They say they could start shooting the sequel end of next year if it gets the green light.You're saying the movie is only half of the first book?

I was sure it would bomb. The sequel is actually going to happen
After watching the film I have so many things I’m curious about in this universe and questions. Afraid to look some of them up and then spoiling upcoming things in the story.
Mainly just how things work in this universe. How space travel works, what humans have discovered, alien life?, does this take place in the Milky Way galaxy or does it span multiple galaxies, the thousands of years of history before this, etc…im on book three or four at the moment. Ask away. The film covers about half way through book one.
I've only read book one should I bother with the others? My understanding is there is one direct sequel book and then some random other stuff like Children of Dune or something. I figured at least reading Messiah would be worth it especially if they do a third movie just based on that.im on book three or four at the moment. Ask away.

All of the first 4 are worth ready and any of them could be good end points if you wanted to stop even they though they are direct continuations.I've only read book one should I bother with the others?

The books go way WAY out there. Another ten thousand years passed by the third or fourth one. They can be a struggle in places but the whole concept is completely crazy and worth sticking with.I've only read book one should I bother with the others?
