Quit while you're ahead.
The rest are non-essential, and I had to tap out after the fourth.

A production with the story from the miniseries, and the set design and costuming of Lynch's film, would be about as close to perfect as I could reasonably ask for.

I like the Atreides costumes from the movie, but I prefer the miniseries' Harkonnen and Fremen costumes. The stillsuits look too much like skinned xenomorphs (thanks to Giger) in the movies that I can't unsee it, whereas the ones in the miniseries seemed more practical for the desert. I would prefer something different than both for this movie though as far as the stillsuits go. Also no internal monologues. Just no. The sardaukar looked terrible in both mediums.

Yes, but the silliness of their uniforms is the true secret behind the sardaukar's strength as a fighting force. They're sent out looking like that and have something to prove.
LeeC:
Haha. I suppose that could be said about both of them. Although the movie sardaukar are just in harkonnan garb the whole time right? I know we see them in their normal digs in the mini series but do not recall that happening in the movie.
mini series during the banquet for the Atreides.
In the movie, looks like they are hanging out with the Harknonan in similar garb:
