Dune: Book, Movie, Miniseries.

Akima:
At least the Voice had been introduced earlier in the book, and Jessica's training of Paul in that skill is discussed. Jessica's reference to the Great Control avoids "exposition speak" and "as you know" dialogue. I don't think there's any excuse for Miles Teg spontaneously turning into the Flash.

BeoPuppy:
Never bothered me ... gholas do weird shit is probably the hand wave I completely bought into.

Orbert:
Yeah, Paul having The Great Control was actually kinda cool, and even made sense; I guess it's just the name that gets me.  It did get us past a lot of unnecessary exposition.  Obviously, The Great Control is a thing, very few have it, and Jessica recognizes it, all in a few quick sentences.  And I suppose the Bene Gesserit prefer to keep things simple.  If it's just called Voice, then I suppose The Great Control is what you'd call... um... having great control.

Miles Teg was badass.  He always could become The Flash; he just didn't like to show off.  Seriously though, while I understand the complaint, to me it was just another thing he could do that we just hadn't had a chance to see before because the situation never came up.

LeeC:
Legendary Pictures have acquired the film rights to Frank Herbert's Dune as of today.

Kugai:
Hmmmm

It would be interesting to see if they'll take another stab at it and how good or bad that will be.
