12/13

This series uses material from the Great Schools of Dune trilogy by Brian Herbert and Kevin J

Two Harkonnen sisters battle forces that threaten the future of humanity and create the legendary sect that would become known as the Bene Gesserit. Whether exploring the stars, escaping dystopias, or making the world a better place, these women are like science fiction is all about… Anderson. A prequel to the original Dune, it tells the story of how the Sisterhood of Rosak evolved into the Bene Gesserit.

The most obvious problem is the editing

The incident with Valya Harkonnen using voiceover is from one called «Mentats of Dune.» All three books intertwine the development of the Sisterhood, the Mentats, the Navigators, and the Suc Doctors. Mentioned in Crazy Cartoon Cast of AniMat: The New Normal (2020). The first episode of Dune Prophecy, HBO Max’s new foray into the world of Frank Herbert’s universe, unfortunately looks dull and uninspired. Despite its ambitious source material, the episode struggles to capture the charm and depth that made Dune so beloved.

Visually, Dune Prophecy suffers from a continuation of the drab industrial aesthetic seen in recent Dune adaptations

The pacing is unusually scattered, with scenes feeling rushed and lacking the breathing space needed to build tension or atmosphere. In its effort to cram too much story into an hour, the episode devolves into a chaotic barrage of nonstop dialogue, sacrificing narrative flow and engagement. Moments that should feel meaningful are undermined by quick jump cuts, leaving little room for emotional or thematic resonance. The set and costume designs feel sterile and monotonous, failing to evoke the complex, vibrant feel of Herbert’s universe.

Perhaps the most disappointing aspect is the lack of effective world-building

This lack of visual and atmospheric variety diminishes the sense of wonder and otherworldly grandeur that Dune demands. While the episode focuses heavily on expository dialogue to set the plot, it neglects to establish the world itself. The complex political and cultural dynamics that define Dune feel superficial, and the lack of atmospheric «vibes» leaves the setting hollow and unengaging. Ultimately, Dune Prophecy struggles to find a balance between exposition and immersion, resulting in an episode that feels more like a rushed recap than a compelling introduction to the series.

Without significant adjustments to the pacing, the editing and world-building risk losing the essence of what makes Dune such a rich and enduring story
