Should I read Dune in preparation for the movie?

And how many books? There are like 300.

Read the first one, yes. That’s pretty much all you need.

The Brian Herbert "sequels" are soulless cashgrab garbage. Meme discarded.

All the opposite. Dune's problem is the rushed conclusion.

Look, I am going to save you some time. The sooner this sentence means anything to you, the sooner you will stop reading.

When you realize how fucking retarded this is, his son is, you will find that only the first books can be worth reading because they close a story. The rest of it is fan fiction.

Just watch the movie.
It tries to be an allegory on Yihad. It even drops "Yihad" somewhere thru the end. I didn't enjoy it, one of my friends did and he got all the books.
I'm going to watch the movie because I like Timothee Chamalet

The first book is a bit melodramatic but has a lot going on. Most of the draw for me was in the way the whole "chosen one of prophecy" shtick was treated. The first few sequel books are interesting but increasingly silly.

After that it's really just up to you. The Brian Herbert books aren't very good.

It's "jihad", and the book explicitly calls it by that name. There's no allegory.
