I thought I read somewhere that Dune is in two parts, but it doesn't look like it, & it's quite long, two & a half hours (& a big old budget $165,000,000 estimated). I'm looking forward to seeing it, but I'm not sure if it'll be at the cinema or a Blu-ray.
I'm not sure about Ridley Scott's, The Last Duel. Set in 14th century France, good, lots of fighting, good. But, it's been awhile since I liked any film that Scott has made, & the look of the trailer is awful, desaturated gunge-o-vision (did colour not exist in those days?).

That poster for "Dune" looks like "Twilight" crossed with every other bland color-washed serio-turd that has come before. No clips to give more judgement by, but based on that, the director, and Zimmer as composer, I think it may be a good guess that it doesn't take a genius to know what this film will come out as...

WES ANDERSON---Adrien Brody will co-star with Bill Murray and Tilda Swinton in the untitled movie.
Incidentally, this news applies to the next five films Anderson will make.

I started reading Dune in the early seventies (all my friends were reading it), but I just couldn't get into it (a shame, as I missed out on all those sequels). I couldn't get on with the Lynch film, & by the time I'm able to buy the Blu-ray of this new film, the reviews & box office will be old news (it does seem daft to pre-judge it by a set of film posters). Whatever, I hope I'm still going to buy it, a $165,000,000 film should have some things going for it (you never know, I think The Lone Ranger is a great western, whereas John Carter is just pants).
