Dune part 2 spoilers 

I finally, belatedly saw Dune part 2. I didn't like it as well as the first part. I was a bit surprised that they decided to change it so that Alia wasn't born, implying the events of part 2 all took place in a matter of a few months, which is probably why they also wrote out Paul and Chani's first child. It seems like an unnecessary change. I'd say they probably did it for brevity, but those moves could not reasonably be called brief.

@internic And your thoughts on Christopher Walken? I like him, but it pulled me out of the movie.

@sl38 I often find his manner a bit odd, so I guess he wouldn't have been someone I would have thought to pick if I had been in their shoes, but being eccentric seems reasonable to me for someone who is royalty, so I actually felt it worked okay.

@sl38 Also, as one commentary I saw pointed out, arguably Walken has been training to be in Dune for years. 😄
