'Dune: Part 3' and 'Avengers: Doomsday' share the same December 2026 date. Are they another 'Barbenheimer,' or will one movie blink?

      Oh it’s no secret, studios saw the cultural phenomenon of barbenheimer and now try to manufacture it for profit. They did the same with wicked last year with some other flop of a movie. They’re actively trying to make it happen again, trying to seem young and hip.

      They’re my favourite movies since LOTR and absolute fucking masterpieces of cinema imo.

      They’re another example of “this shit is unfilmable” being turned into amazing films.

      I like the casting of Anya Taylor Joy to play Paul’s sister too because she’s a weird looking fucking alien person and is perfect for the role of psycho fetal hallucinogenic syndrome person.

    Haven’t watched an entire marvel movie since endgame.

    I don’t particularly hate or dislike them but I don’t care to watch them.

        Indeed, and some of them (according to others) have been quite good.

        I have seen bits and pieces of like 4 or 5 of them but I honestly couldn’t say which ones except black panther. They weren’t bad, they just couldn’t hold my interest and I stopped watching.

      Dune is not a white savior story though, and neither is Dune Messiah (which Frank Herbert wrote in part to make that message as clear as possible). While Paul is trying to be a savior figure, he’s using everyone for his own ends the entire time. The top comment on this wonderful video says it best:

      Dune’s entire historical narrative has always been, “Beware of the Tyrant wrapped in Savior clothing.”

      Dune isn’t exactly a messiah movie, although it’s literally based on the book Dune Messiah.

    I kind of feel like an asshole nerd. I only want to watch DUNC 3 to see if it pisses off the fans of DUNC 1 & 2 who misunderstood them.

    The choice will be more supercape shit or more vainglorious Dune shit.

    Hard pass on both.

    Sweet.

    Both will, of course, need to compete with the one of the Captain Americas, a couple of Marx Brothers movies, and a that one backwards one (Tenant) that I’m excited for, but haven’t found time to see, yet.

    I didn’t make the call to enshitify streaming services, or run 37 minutes of ads before every feature film, but it definitely changed how I enjoy movies.

    Anyway. I bet I will get around to seeing Dune and Doom. I might even watch them during a holiday.
