Honestly, this has been standard at every chain theatre I've been to for a decade or more. Once reserved seating became the norm, we just show up fifteen minutes after the 'start' time and walk in to the house lights dimming.
Agree with your review of Dune though.
I stopped going to movies after covid, but i was at one movie whereca fight broke out in that exact scinario. A group showed up right as the previews were ending to find other people had taken their seats. Its escalated where the girls were physically fighting and the manager had to break them up.
AMC restarted the movie and gave everyone a free ticket to another movie after this 2 girls were escorted out.
I'll take random throw downs over a Twister reboot trailer.
I generally only go to matinees when I go, so if someone's in my seat it's no big deal to just take another one, thankfully.
