Hmm when Dune came out I didn't go and see it at the movies. I'd never read or seen any Dune before but I knew it'd be a big spectacle demanding a big screen, however I told myself I'd hold off for when Dune 2 came out because I had a feeling they'd do a double feature.

And so here we are.. they're doing a double feature on the 28th.. I've since watched Dune at home (a couple of months ago) and I'm just not sure I have it in me to spend 6 hours at the movies and yet I feel like if I don't take my chance to see Dune 1 on a big screen with big sound I'll regret it later.

Edit: I'm convinced. I've bought a ticket. Going to have to warm up my butt for a marathon sitting.

I've only watched Dune 1, it was alright as a film personally, but I loved the experience on the big screen. Definitely worth springing for a good cinema screening vs watching it at home

I'm going to go see Dune one at IMAX in preparation but my butt can't handle a double feature, it struggled during Oppenheimer!-
