No one has really been left out. Its just that they moved a couple of characters to the second film. Which only makes sense. Which areDHOPW42 wrote: ↑September 16th, 2021, 7:41 amSounds great!

I saw this yesterday in a sold out (yes at 75% capacity because pandemic) huge theater. It was everything I hoped it to be and more. It's a fantastic emotional experience from beginning till end. Villeneuve captures the essence of the story and characters, whom are portrayed wonderfully by the perfectly cast actors. Ferguson delivers a career best. The film is both a very direct adaptation as it makes the film more grounded and relatable than it might seem at first. I had goosebumps multiple times during the film. The accuracy of scenes depicted in the book and seeing them on screen. The nuance there is when you think of the inner monologues of the characters in the book is portrayed so well with lingering shots on the actors faces. The world of ⊃∪∩⪽ feels lived in, real, raw and truly an otherworldly experience. The descriptions of what the light is like on Arrakis are taken to heart on screen. There were scenes of the book I never thought to see on screen. Villeneuve follows Paul very closely throughout the story and it works incredibly well. Character development never gets sidelined amidst the truly stunning visuals.
I absolutely loved it, all of Villeneuves previous work led to this and I've seen a master at the peak of his game. I desperately need a Part II. Even though they covered a lot of the first book there's still so much more of the book to be seen in a second film. Not just because a couple of characters have been omitted (one of them only mentioned) to make their introduction in the second film, but several moments require more depth and a longer amount of time spending with them. The two and a half hours of ⊃∪∩⪽ flew by, I really didn't have the feeling I was watching a long film. Its just ten to fifteen minutes shorter than 2049 mind you! I cannot wait to see the film again and again. Theres so much to be seen, so many intricate details and wonderful moments of the book on screen. If you have the chance, check this out in the biggest theater you can find, its incredible.
the Emperor, Irulan and Feyd-Rautha. The Fenrings might still be in the second film but I have a feeling that if they omit any characters, it'll be those two.
