Just read an ArsTechnica article about David Lynch's unfinished Dune Messiah's script. It was a long, but interesting read

Your thoughts on the matter? Personally, I found all the fervor I felt in the first Dune novel to kind of have its wind knocked out of it in Messiah, though there are things that would lend themselves well to cinema.

I just read both for the first time in the last few weeks and I totally agree. Nothing interesting happens at any part of Messiah. I'm reading through Children of Dune now and I'm hoping it goes somewhere worthwhile.
