Frank Herbert's Dune has historically faced challenges in adaptation due to its complex nature, but Denis Villeneuve succeeded in mastering its grand scale and adventure.
Villeneuve solved the problem by mastering the 'space adventure' side of the equation and replacing the book's more mystical aspects with imposing world-building that overwhelmed you with scale.
Jodorowsky's extraordinary vision for Dune, despite never coming to fruition, is considered significant for its ambitious ideas, featuring a standout lineup including Pink Floyd and Orson Welles.
The idea of adapting Dune was always more compelling than the execution, which explains the mixed responses to previous attempts before Villeneuve's definitive take.
