Huh so I was under the impression that they filmed both parts one and two at the same time and were just waiting to see how Part 1 did before they spent the $$$ to do all the vfx for part 2. But actually they just filmed the first part. Won’t it be super difficult to get all these huge actors back for a second movie and not run into scheduling conflicts? Especially if this one doesn’t do gangbusters because of the 4th wave, WB might cut their losses which would suck.

A lot of us are assuming the second one will never get made because it’s better to be pleasantly surprised than vice versa.

I have to admit, I'm still concerned that we're going to end up with half a story that never gets finished. "Should we go for a three-hour runtime and try to get the whole book in there, even if it means truncating or dropping some aspects? I mean, Titanic and Avengers Endgame were three hours long and people sat through those." "Nah, two and half hours max, and we'll leave Paul leading the Fremen against the Harkonnens until part 2. After all, what are the odds that some kind of global emergency will massively affect the potential box-office returns on our $160 million movie?"

As I get older I feel like I'm less and less bothered by art being left incomplete. Honestly it's usually better than being completed badly. Que sera sera, a good adaptation of the first half of dune still adds something to the world. The case to worry about may actually be the movie doing just barely okay enough to make a scaled back half measure version of part 2

I mean, that seems like a reasonable expectation. Musical artists often provide critics early access in a controlled environment so that they actually listen to the album on good speakers, without distractions etc. Seems kinda reasonable to expect that a critic would review a movie in its proper context. The early reviews are always breathless hyperbole anyway, who cares?

Dune is my most anticipated film of the year but I'm increasingly erring on the side of "not catching the delta variant" and instead watching it at home. Maybe I'll go buy a ticket and then watch it at home though, to support the film.

Maybe Part 2's going to be like part 2 of Atlas Shrugged, where it's made on half the budget and with a totally different and cheaper cast.

One would assume yes, a lot of people work from home these days. An option for theatre watching would be to head over to the Covid thread in cspam and join elastomer crew.

I'm sure being in a theater with few enough people and a good enough respirator is a pretty minor level of risk but I'm just not feeling it. Despite denis tears I'm glad it will be on hbo max, though of course I wish the bean counter stuff behind the scenes was such that he could be happier about it

Renewed AMC A-List a few months ago. Double-Vaxxed. I'm good. After a certain point, I feel like you can't worry about breakthrough cases and just let nature take its course. If you're protected and still get it, it's not gonna be much worse than a cold. If you're not protected, you're an idiot and deserve Darwinism at full effect.

Even if you aren't worried about the effects on yourself, you should worry about the likelihood of spreading it to others and thus helping perpetuate the pandemic. There are 50 million unvaccinated children in America right now, and every additional person who gets infected is another link in a potential transmission chain to a child who'll get long covid or worse. Then again these are goons, maybe you live alone, work from home, and can quarantine yourself for a week after a potential exposure event like a packed theater.

Heads up that even vaccinated people can get the delta variant. My kid got it for this reason; he's doing fine though. (e: the vaccinated person involved actually got it worse than any of the kids, though she is also doing well). Hodgepodge fucked around with this message at 00:55 on Aug 21, 2021 |

I'm well aware, I had a breakthrough symptomatic case a little over a month ago (I think I mentioned it in this thread at the time). But some people are less convinced by that particular risk.

Yeah my reason for not going to the theatre is the worry I'd spread it around. I have a job where everyone could easily work from home but the executives only had us work remotely for the first two months of the pandemic when this state had its harshest restrictions. But I haven't been anywhere but home, the office, the grocery store, and occasionally my parents' since this thing started.

Also I’m checking out where to get elastomeric respirators but all I can find online says they’re only being sold to healthcare providers. Edit: Nevermind, I acquired the info from the gbs covid thread, here’s where to buy the respirators and filters: https://www.grainger.com/category/safety/respiratory-protection/reusable-respirators-replacement-filters-cartridges/half-mask-respirators Hasselblad posted:I have to ask those who are worried about covid in a theater: Yes, and very rarely left the house in the last 16 months. Once the province I’m in starts the vaccine passports I’ll be a bit more comfortable going out and about but cases are rising again. Ccs fucked around with this message at 04:01 on Aug 21, 2021 |
