Most likely this is age and nostalgia talking.
I can tell by the previews that the new version is slow building but still all action and CGI.
Whereas the 84 version is something unique and will never be replicated.
I still get scared watching Dune (1984) even today.
I'm not a big fan of all the witchcraft in the story.
But I do respect the originality of David Lynch's version.
Still, I will have to give Denis's version a chance since he did pretty good with Part 2 of Blade Runner.
I'm just waiting for the movie to either be 2 dollars at Red Box or 10 dollars to buy the DVD.

The new Dune movie is good IMHO. Like you said, part 2 of Blade runner was pretty good (loved the retro slow pacing not found in most of today's movies) and that is how it goes with the new Dune.
