Isn't this just for insider subscribers?

Yes, but Insider is completely free just sign up. Get card number instantly on email and then a physical one in the post. Saves loads of money and get money back on every purchase.

^ nice one. I've just done exactly the same thing and booked for 730pm on the 18th! Looking forward to it.

Booked for 21st at local cineworld imax, not the best of screens but would have to go to london to get much better round here.. Went last night for bond and it was completely full, been a number of times last summer and since reopening and they were barely 1/3rd full. But it was the best behaved I've ever been in, not a peep from anyone else throughout which makes a nice change.

Booked for the Insider screening at my local Showcase. Would have gone there to see it anyway to be honest, sound and seating is always excellent and there’s not as many ****s there as there usually is at on Odeon or Vue.

Booked for Monday 18th, reasonably priced ticket as well of £7.30.

Dune will mark the return to the local cinema for me, counting down the days. I watch everything on the big screen in the comfort of my own bed in VR these days anyway, but as the man fought to get the film to the theatres, i'll do him the honour.

I think it's the 23/4 round our way, gonna be worth the wait.

Just read its passed the $100 million mark, looking good for a part 2 to be greenlit.

I wonder how much it's making/going to make in terms of streaming. Only 60% of Box office revenues go the the studio, and less of the overseas revenue and less over time. Also the studio here wasn't the distributor so Warner Bros would be taking a massive of cut of that. No doubt it's going to make a profit though over its run.

Two tickets booked for Sat 23rd at the Printworks IMAX in Manchester :cool:

It might actually look terrible. You'll be able to see all the make up on the actors, where the pyrotechnics have been placed before they go off, and maybe even the stunt doubles. I laughed so hard when I first saw one of the transformers movies in 4k. Don't even get me started on Gemini Man. I've never seen anything so bad, though part of that was due to the frame rate.

Looking forward to tomorrow's showing before spoilers start showing up online. I knew with advanced previews and it coming to HBO the movie would get leaked. Seems that was the case a few hours ago unfortunately.

TriedandTested · 17 Oct 2021 at 12:41

Yup. 100% IMAX for this one though...would be selling yourself short watching it at home, even on decent setups.

Hasn't it been out for weeks already? I'm in Spain at the moment and it's been on all the cinemas here in for general screenings in Spanish and VO (original language) for a good few weeks.

SixTwoSix · 17 Oct 2021 at 15:30

UK and USA some of the last to get it

Yeah, but I meant an actual 1080p copy has surfaced online. UHD ones will be up as well as soon as it hits HBO max.
