Look at LotR reactions (which have mellowed some, but there are still diehards that have their issues). And I would say Dune fans are more rigid. It's not a problem, the movie will do well, it's just hard to do adaptations, and people are set in their own interpretations of works tha have been around a long time.

I'll have you know that I'm an amateur whiner.

if you keep at it you will hone your craft... no need to go to Whine University to be a good professional whiner!
