Some science fiction stories require interesting tech to draw people in. Dune was a space opera first and a science fiction second.

Indeed. I think that's one of the reasons that no one has been able to bring it to the big screen, is simply because it is so nuanced, and those nuances are lost when translated to film.
As for the OP, F-it. I'll take a fleet of Star Destroyers for the win.
