To me when it came to Dune though it always felt like I just jumped in the middle of an ongoing movie, which makes it a little hard to understand the plot and the various narratives within.

That is part of the feeling that's meant to happen though. You are thrust into the middle of the most convoluted galaxy spanning political slap fest but you find comfort in the simplicity of a life of struggle and constant work to survive on a desert planet.

Glimpses into other planets and their culture are still confusing and foreign.

It's a lot of handling both sides carefully to make it not like reading an autistic boys diary.

And the narrative is mostly that other people can go a long way of pushing their beliefs on others into setting up a person to be their savior when likely it will just mean change that many crave and fear equally.
