Sci-Fi Dune

I think the only other film of note coming out around the same time is The Fall Guy. Dune 2 should be fine.

The Fall Guy moved to May 3, so not even that!

If Dune Part 2 doesn't open with his naming scene, I'm walking out.

March is going to be pure Dune domination.

March is going to be pure Dune domination.

Fingers crossed because box office has been extremely unpredictable this last few months, but if there are no more obstacles and it's as well received as the first one, I have a very good feeling about it. No competition, no covid, no day-and-date release, more epic action, award recognition of the first film, sequels to beloved films usually do better anyway, and it's the definition of an event movie that should get butts in the cinema, even more so in a year that we'll see very few of these. I could see this making 50% or even 100% more than the previous one.

I hope it's massive. No doubt it'll be good, Villeneuve doesn't disappoint, but it would be nice to see it become a huge success as well. Not only would that be great for Denis, but we'd also most certainly get Dune Messiah.

We'll see. Warner Bros. hasn't been marketing this at all since that trailer release.

 

[OrbOfConfusion]

I have to imagine that's possibly a byproduct of the strikes and not wanting to spend money on trailers, but best guess, maybe another trailer will be attached to Wonka or Aquaman 2 since they're both WB movies.

Also the movie got pushed back 5 months.

I’m guessing they moved it up when they did because they are about to put out new promo materials and wanted to finalize the date before doing so.

We'll see. Warner Bros. hasn't been marketing this at all since that trailer release.

It had two trailers and that Empire piece among other things. If it hadn't moved, marketing would had really kicked in two months before the release, at the exact point they decided to push it to March so as to avoid promoting it almost half a year before the eventual release date. I'm sure they'll start somewhere around Christmas again.

We'll see. Warner Bros. hasn't been marketing this at all since that trailer release.

Marketing will ramp up again in a month or so. A new trailer should be attached to Aquaman/Wonka/both.

"Dune: Part Two" Gets IMAX 70mm Run - Dark Horizons

Following on from the news of its slightly earlier release date of March 1st next year, it has also been revealed that Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune: Part Two” is set to score an IMAX 70mm run following the success of “Oppenheimer” using the format earlier this year. This adaptation of the second...

I don't know if it's going to have IMAX exclusivity this time around but with this lack of competition in March I don't think it matters much.

I liked the new Dune movie. It had great acting. And the film looked amazing.

Does Brazil wanna start a war? Because this certainly feels like an act of aggression.

Lucky that Brolin or Bautista was not there. They'll know what to do with the person who threw that.
