I haven't really kept up with the Daniel Craig Bonds... I saw Skyfall, but that's about it. I think, for me, it's kind of like Dr Who - something I've grown out of needing to watch (haven't watched any of the 'new' Dr Who at all... though it's now been going almost as long as the 'original' did... or so it seems sometimes!). After the last Pierce Brosnan Bond movie, which was so cynically awful, I kind of gave up on the franchise & became a 'Bourne' fan instead

Like you, I read the Dune books (well, the first 3 & 1/2) back when the Dead Sea was only mildly ill, but I must get around to seeing this latest attempt to film it (the less said about David Lynch's attempt in the 80s the better)
