Agree with the author on a lot of points, but I don’t really think it would have been that hard to explain the choice that Paul is making a little bit better. Just a bit more fighting with Chani, maybe a real empassioned “I chose you!” from Paul, it would not have added too much length to the movie. It seems like Villenue kinda wanted the vagueness, which is a little confusing since a third movie still hasn’t been confirmed by any studio. You can leave off on an unsatisfying cliffhanger when you know you have a movie coming to explain it, so maybe Villenue is just really confident, but this would honestly be one of the weakest adaptations if a third movie doesn’t materialize.
