And then Edgar Rice Burroughs used that time machine technology to go even further back to 1912 and started the serialization of A Princess of Mars.

No because Star wars wasn't inspired by Dune. It was created by its own, in a creative vacuum. Don't worry.

The book isn't a heart pounding thriller. I'm legitimately interested in how you would make a movie out of such lore dense tome without the dryness?

I found them to be the best movies I've ever seen. But that's the great thing about being human, we don't all have to like the same stuff! It would be wierd if we did.

I forget what was in Dune, but I remember Han introducing himself and saying he was a spice hauler in a past life.

How does Dune reference something that doesn't yet exist?
