The books cover a huge span of time, but each one is focused on a particular character or set of characters, which they used in the show as well. The books are character stories. I’m no filmmaker or writer, but I think it was more a case of « let’s write what we want » more than « it’s not filmable ». Dune was supposed to be impossible to adapt, and the movie was absolutely fantastic!
