If you want to disqualify Star Wars as "space fantasy", there's a good argument for that, but it stands on its own as a great film.

Star Wars is space opera/space fantasy but there is nothing wrong with that. It's basically space wizards.
Dune also falls into that category despite what people say about it. If anything it is closer to a historical operatic tragedy or epic than any hard sci-fi.
What I hope this Dune will accomplish is showing Star Wars what Anakin's arc really should have looked like.
