Like Mummelman, I'm also stoked to see this in IMAX.

My only gripe would be Feyd's bald head. Sting's look in Lynch's Dune felt appropriate given how he's the Harkonnen's best option to marry up. Oh well... Uggo Butler it is.

I don't mind the bald heads as they'd already established that's the new Harkonnen look in part 1. It anything bothered me it's Chani wearing a light blue headband; the last thing I expect to see in the deserts of Arrakis is bright coloured clothing. Also curious why Paul doesn't have blue eyes for most of these scenes, as he should've been in the desert for years at this point, and even Lady Jessica is shown with blue eyes throughout the trailer.

On the positive, I'm glad they seemed to have based Princess Irulan more on the SyFy version where she's actually involved in the story-- convinced there's a connection between Muad'dib and the presumed dead Paul Atreides, actively searching for clues and connections using her bene gesserit skills to manipulate people --as opposed to the book version where she's just a figure head who only pops up in the end.

I can follow the argument of uniformity, but still think something like Feyd with jet-black hair & less face/head work would be that good middle-ground.  You can still have the blanched skin and dead eyes, but he also cares about looking more presentable for a potential marriage arrangement.
