It's been Dune before

[catalyst2]

From CHUD, a Dune remake is in the winds? Maybe? It seems very early in the piece to believe anything and given past attempts, I wouldn't rely on anything actually happening. In the end, Dune isn't a very visual story, I think. Don't get me wrong, there are some absolutely iconic images which will always look spectacular if done well - the eruption of a mature sandworm from a dune comes to mind - but the meat of the story is a very internal one. I love the world of Dune, just in case you wonder, it's just not good material to adapt to movie, in my opinion. We shall see - or not as the case may be!
