My wife and I argued for two hours about the 'Dune' movie ending

We both read the book and saw the new film. I thought the movie's ending, stopping where it did, was a smart choice. She said it cut out too much of Paul's inner struggle from the book. This turned into a whole thing about what you can leave out in an adaptation. We looked up articles and everything. It took us like two hours to just agree we both liked it for different reasons. Anyone else get into a long debate over a change from the book?

Adaptations have to cut something, right?

Yeah, they have to cut stuff, and it always seems to be my favorite scene.
