Tom Jolliffe on why Dune: Part Three needs to win the battle of Dunesday against Avengers: Doomsday…Remember Barbenheimer? December 18th this year sees a double bill of Dune: Part Three and Avengers: Doomsday that will likely carry a similar theatrical heft and attention as Barbenheimer. Marvel cinema and films of a similar ilk, like Disney’s Star Wars, were raking in huge amounts of money. Above all the noise, the film has been lauded for its jaw-dropping scale, and Nolan’s almost pedantic obsession with practical filmmaking. As far as dedication to practical filmmaking goes, no one but Quentin Tarantino comes close in mainstream circles to Nolan.
