No, it’s just more expensive than ever to go watch a movie. I like going to this one theater because it has comfy seats, they serve beer, and have good sound. The tickets are like $12-18, but I also have to pay for parking (about $30 for a 2-3 hour movie), and they up charge the beers too. So, going to watch a movie ends up being around $60-70 for two, and the only reason to go is to be part of the social experience happening around the movie, because if you wait like 90 days, you can buy the movie on iTunes or YouTube for less than $60.
So I pretty much only go to Marvel movies since the cgi action scenes are better on the huge screen.
Dune was incredible in theaters. I'm scared of watching it again at home (in prep for the 2nd part) since I'm probably going to be disappointed
Proper surround sound with subwoofer required, to be sure
Yeah, I can imagine. I skipped it but watched it later on my phone. Definitely want to go see part 2 in theaters.
