My weekend movies were Dune (the recent one) and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Very different and each entertaining in their way. The latter is pretty silly, but it's just entertainment, not science. I read Dune many years ago.

The new Dune? The first part?
Yes. I heard part 2 is out, so needed to catch up. I watched the 80s one recently. With the new one I knew what was coming a lot of the time. Even some of the lines are the same.
Good call. Think I'll watch part 1 again since it's been a while and the second one. I remember the 80s Dune, directed by David Lynch!
I actually enjoyed AntMan. Lots of bad reviews, but I thought it was the perfect popcorn flick!
The mind boggles at the work that goes into the effects. I just treat it like a thrill ride. I'm not expecting great acting or a plot that makes sense.
Yeah man, people going into these movies expecting a masterpiece in acting and story telling, are setting themselves up for a disappointment lol
I also read Dune way back & I liked it a lot. The movie doesn't have any lore and complexity from the books, understandable, but it didn't feel nearly as magical as the book
The MCU ended for me with endgame, not watching any Marvel movie
These movies are always a compromise as they need to appeal to people who never read the books. They need lots of action rather than long explanations.
I get all the Marvel stuff on Disney+. May go to cinema for GOTG3.
Not seen Dune, but really anjoyed Ant-man and the Wasp movie. Just watched the Dungeon and Dragons movie, and it was good as well. So can recommend that for next time =)
I may check out D&D some time. I enjoy a fun movie.
The reviews for the Ant-Man movies are not great. I have not watched it yet. Dune is good.
I heard that some people didn't like Ant-Man so much, but it was a fun watch. I knew what to expect.
I am not expecting a ground breaking story line either. I need to find time to watch this fun filled visual treat.
