It's kinda funny, The subject of your post and your concern about a Star Wars comparision. In each on the Star Wars movies the above phrase "I have a bad feeling about this." was uttered once, each time by a different character. Watch the movies again if you don't believe me.
Anyway I agree with you in the respect that the two are totally seperate beasts. Star Wars was and still is according to George Lucas "Cowboys in space", although he claimed the last one had many refrences to his own personal takes on god and spirtuality. Dune was meant to have a more social and political message.
I think that by comparing it to Star Wars it will get many more viewers then if CNN never mentioned it at all and passed it by as a mini-series that only a geek would watch. Just my $.02
