It's nowhere near as complicated as dune though. They can cut out a lot of the flashbacks.

If they cut too many of the flashbacks, it gets rid of, or at least erodes, the WTF? Where am I and how did I get here and why? part of the book, which is a pretty major part of it.

They don't need endless scenes of meetings. Those will probably go.

Regardless, I just hope the main character isn't as annoying as he was in the book. (He shouldn't be mr cool, either)
