hmmm, looked up the new film, doesn't look like its going to happen either, at least not anytime soon. they have been talking about making it for over four years now, and every director they get for it drops out. the last one they hired in 2010 has dropped out. looks like they are now planning it for release in 2014...

and on the topic of the books, yes, Frank's son likes to play at being a Dune author, with some guy who writes X-Files novels cowriting, but I wouldn't really suggest reading any of them except possibly the ones that end the cliffhanger of Chapterhouse that Frank's untimely death left (Hunters, and Sandworms), but then even they are filled with way too many references to Kevin and Brian's other books, making them confusing if you don't read thier "prequels" first (especially considering they often contradict the canon that Frank himself wrote)
