Dune part 2 because I couldn't sleep and happened to check out Max like 30 minutes after it went up.

This is supposed to be a trilogy? What's the 3rd movie gonna cover? The first 2 parts were just the first book. Are the rest of the books just gonna be condensed into a single 2-3 hour movie?

The third movie will cover the second book and Denis will conclude his trilogy there. I hope you watched it on a decent sized TV at least.

I watched it on a virtual movie screen in VR. Although maybe I should have used the floating in space environment for it. 🤔

As a book reader Messiah wraps up Paul's story, which is what I assume Dennis is going for. There's absolutely no reason to make Children unless you want to make God-Emperor and God-Emperor would be very difficult to make into a watchable movie. Plus going past that would be outside most regular viewers' tastes. So I expect he'll mostly do Messiah, sprinkle some bits from Children in there and leave it with a pretty solid ending that could be continued. Spoiler prediction:

spoilerI'd guess he'll end it with Leto II assuming control of Arrakis and the Empire while looking at a sandworm in the distance or sandworm larva, hinting at where God-Emperor is going
