butlerian jihad takes place roughly 10000 years before dune IIRC.

CR. But Paul does lead another jihad (see Dune Messiah)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dune_Messiah

Twelve years after the events described in Dune (1965), Paul "Muad'Dib" Atreides rules as Emperor. By accepting the role of messiah to the Fremen, Paul had unleashed a jihad which conquered most of the known universe.[1] Paul is the most powerful emperor ever known, but is powerless to stop the lethal excesses of the religious juggernaut he has created. Although 61 billion people have perished, Paul's prescient visions indicate that this is far from the worst possible outcome for humanity. Motivated by this knowledge, Paul hopes to set humanity on a course that will not inevitably lead to stagnation and destruction, while at the same time acting as ruler of the empire and focal point of the Fremen religion.

they use both "jihad" and "crusade" in the movie. people got angry because the trailer used the word "crusade."

Neither? Loved dune but can't imagine the director of the new blade runner is going to make anything decent. Foundation was ok, but like a lot of classic hard sci fi, will not adapt well to screen because none of the characters are actually interesting.

Villeneuve's great but best is a pretty big stretch; he wouldn't make my top 10. That being said, I think he's particularly well suited moody, visually imaginative material like Dune

His Blade Runner vision was one of the most compelling movies of the last decade.

I am convinced that both WoT and Foundation will be clusterfucks, though I would love them not to be.

Thus Dune will probably be, as a standalone, better

Been burned too many times at this point. Both will be unmitigated disasters. DV is a solid director so perhaps Dune will be painless. I’m not even going to bother with Foundation.
