Maybe, if the movie was shot in 3D and intended to be seen in 3D. Dune wasn't. I had the same problem as the grandparent. I wanted to see Dune in IMAX, 2D as the director intended, but everywhere I looked, and I looked at the neighbouring countries too, the IMAX screenings were all in fake 3D.

I had to settle for 2D in non-IMAX screening, but at least I could find a screening in English and without German subtitles...

Anyway, I dislike 3D cinema even when properly done. It only looks good at high framerate and with deep depth of field. I prefer my 24fps and shallow depth of field.
