Well nothing is sacred. The issue of course being disgracing shai-hulud into a sock puppet Leto II.

Saw it I do think it's a good adaptation and the big changes actually work to hammer home the themes better.

Only real complaint is it did need the Guild rep at the end on the shutting down the Emperor to hammer home the "without spice there's no guild, no space travel" and it also would explain why the Fremen actually can use the ships to go on their war.

But considering what it does well, that's a pretty minor complaint compared to magical rain of Arrakis at the end...
