If you were hype for Dennis Villeneuve doing Dune I can’t imagine how this trailer would derail that. I almost didn’t watch the trailer just because I know I want to see this movie regardless.

Do we also hate the generally dark and drab look of the Lynch movie? Cause everyone wears black in that and it’s generally brown/black.

CLAM DOWN posted:That makes sense, I highly doubt he would have agreed to this if he couldn't even finish the story. “I would not agree to make this adaptation of the book with one single movie,” says Villeneuve. “The world is too complex. It’s a world that takes its power in details.” https://www.google.com/amp/s/collider.com/dune-two-movies-sequel-explained-reason-why-denis-villeneuve/%3famp

Since they didn’t shoot two movies at once there is no guarantee. They could have promised him they’d make both and the studio would still find a way to bail on the second movie if they really wanted to. The quotes and news just mean a second film is as likely as it can be under the circumstances.

Jewmanji posted:That’s a bit silly. Nolan can’t be blamed for the pandemic, and WB and Nolan were presumably hand-in-hand in the release strategy. Nolan is a uniquely reliable and bankable talent. One critical /box office misfire isn’t going to affect his trajectory at all. The studio surely would have gone for the cash grab if it weren't a Nolan movie.

I don't really see how that follows. Why will there be more streaming competition a year from now, if things are still bad enough that movie theaters are dead? If they can't operate movie theaters a year from now they also won't be able to operate movie and tv studios to produce more streaming content.

yoohoo posted:Have you seen all of the movies that have been pushed back? There's a lot. Am I mistaken? Are all the studios back up and running full time now? Cause Hollywood is one industry where very wealthy people have to work in relatively close proximity to the working class. High dollar actors/directors know the grips and production assistants etc are not able to hide from the world and the virus as easily and thus are more at risk of spreading it to them. Thus, studio production did not reopen with outdoor bars and restaurants in LA.

Yeah when I went googling for answers to that question I found hits about NYC studios reopening. I can't find info on LA from anything more recent than July.

why sell tickets to one 4.5 hour movie when you could instead sell everyone tickets to two 2.5 hour movies? at least this isn't a Hobbit situation where they're stretching the source material into extra films just to cash in

looks like it was pushed back from October 1st to October 22nd which is a big whatever at this point, it's already been delayed a year what's another 3 weeks?

Hasselblad posted:Isn't getting vaxinated an option? The county nurse who followed up with me after my positive test said I should be protected from reinfection for ~90 days which is right around the release of this movie. Before getting sick I was sure I'd see this in theaters since hey, I'm vaccinated, but now I'm less sure. Maybe I'll go with a half-face respirator and pretend its cosplay.

Hasselblad posted:Dude, the massive uptick is literally those who are not vaxed. Groovelord Neato posted:It's actually more effective than that. The vaccines were an unbelievable godsend the problem is people not getting vaccinated. I'll just reiterate that I am currently sick with COVID despite being fully vaccinated (Pfizer). Today is my 6th day of symptoms, second without a fever. I have zero sense of smell right now. We're growing cannabis outside which was extremely aromatic to me a week ago but if I shove my nose in it I can't smell it at all right now. The vaccine is quite effective at preventing hospitalization/death, but it is no guarantee against infection nor symptoms. Consider your risks accordingly. bawfuls fucked around with this message at 19:59 on Jul 25, 2021 |

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.

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.

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.
