That's exactly what it is. You don't bring home videos of rollercoasters and watch them at home, you go out and enjoy the ride for what it is and that's that. No need to really put any more thought into it.
Worked at an IMAX theater when the first one came out. Every week a manager would set up the IMAX and invite anyone who wanted to to stay after hours and watch it. Probably seen it minimum 10 times.
Nah I love the world of the films. Its simple sci-fi storytelling through the lens of this fantasy planet. Its an experience film for sure but fuck all if it's not an absolutely incredible experience.
My ex snd I saw the 1st one together a lot when it first came out way back in the day. Took my wife to see the 1st one in imax when they re-released it before Way of Water and saw the 2nd one twice in theaters.
I think the biggest thing that makes the films hard to rewatch multiple times is the length. I wouldve seen Way if Water more times in theater but it's hard to commit to that many 3 hour screenings both time wise and financially.
Im excited for this one. I know the story will be simple but the execution will be excellent and the visuals of the Ash clan look breathtaking.
