I watched Dune on HBO Max and enjoyed it quite a lot. I'm sure it's even more visually and audibly impressive on a big screen but watching at home allows for subtitles. There is a LOT of sub-voiced thoughts and whispered asides which are important even though they are difficult to hear.
[Context for the above: I'm 55 with good hearing and a good home theater system. I did read the first book in the '80s and saw the Lynch movie in the theaters.]

I saw the Lynch movie at 19 in a mob-owned Bronx apartment on a semi-inflated Aero-Bed while getting stoned with an openly gay minister (which was still rare in 1999) after a night of hard partying in Atlantic City where I got my picture taken with Paul Sorvino.
