    I rewatched Dune with my wife this weekend. Really enjoyed it.

    My wife has never read the books, so when the film was first released, she enjoyed it, but said that she didn’t really understand a lot of the context. This time around, I tried to explain the background before we started watching (basically I did a 10 minute overview of all the factions and their goals, with pictures of key people and everything 😅). She said that the movie made way more sense to her this time.

    I think it’s a great film, but maybe it doesn’t work so well as a first introduction to the Dune universe.

      Seems like a very nice way to get into the Dune universe! I still haven’t watched the movie myself, nor read the book, but that’s on my (long) to-do list
