Definitely looking forward to part 2. Part one just looked so beautiful, so picturesque.
They hit on all the plot points and it felt like they didn't leave out any of the details (from what I remember from reading the book).
I only watched the movie once, but IIRC they missed a fairly substantial subplot about Gurney Halleck strongly believing that Jessica had betrayed the Atreides. Other than that, I was pretty happy with what they did and didn't decide to cut for time.
Also Thufir.
Imagine that... fooling a mentat. Unbelievable.
There was a few things like that or the dinner I thought they could add in only at the cost of removing some scenes of Xendaya in the desert, but I have a feeling there was a requirement to have a certain amount of her for press materials lol.
