I read Dune series (the books written by Frank) long before the movie came out. It's been years, but I seem to think that the movie ended with a scene that, according to the books, would spell the end of intergalactic travel.
If I remember correctly...
Spice enables space travel.
Sand worms make the spice.
Water is poisonous to sand worms.
At the end of the movie, it's raining.
Dead sand worms = no spice = no space travel = end of galactic civilization.
I have not read any of Brian Herbert's books, but the original series is one of my favorites.
