I haven't watched Halo 1. Do you recommend it? My guess is the goal with the Dune books is to do something along the lines of the Marvel and Star Wars series and spinoffs. Herbert's books are quite deep while the Marvel and Star Wars series are so shallow I hardly bother watching even when free. I'm just not into super heros and bad SciFi where they make up stuff that is impossible without any explanation.

Didn't the Harry Potter author get canceled for a similar belief? When Disney fired Gina Carano (Mandalorian) over her stance on there are only 2 sexes they began the woke slide into oblivion by choosing politics over profit. HP is a Universal Studios property now and she's been COMPLETELY scrubbed from their site universalstudioshollywood.com and Does J.K. Rowling get a cut from Universal Studios? Rowling earns her fortune through the entire Wizarding World franchise. Meaning that for every book, film, theme park ticket, and merchandise sold, she receives a cut. This is because she owns the IP for the franchise, including the characters and the stories surrounding them. This also includes movies. Feb 1, 2023
