Dune 2 Opening Weekend Thread [3/01/24 -3/03/24] [82.5m DOM OW]
MrPink replied to Porthos's topic in Numbers and Data
If we are looking at higher than 28m it’ll do about 85m. Sunday will be a soft drop with heavy PLF demand -

10 year re-release in an empty post August market makes a lot of sense. And it'll probably do some sizable numbers given how many people seemingly missed this in IMAX the first go around. -
I think there is more emotional payoff here but I wouldn't say it's transformative. The important thing is that most characters are not being set up solely for a future arc, there is a genuine arc that our leads are going through with a promised payoff, and with it, emotional moments that result of that. Chani/Zendaya especially drive this. I still think there is a sterile-ness to it overall and I don't know, lack of a fully human touch that prevents it from being this 'all time great' that some declared, but it is a fair improvement. I think this is why I don't consider it leagues over the first, fundamentally I think the two movies could stand to be a little weirder and a little less overly serious. Don't get me wrong, there is more humor in this film but the seriousness of its characters and tone feels oppressive in both films still. I guess it was never reasonable to expect they'd change much gears, but it's also why I can't consider one hugely better than the other.

Can't speak for the album but I found the score to be overwhelming in this (not in a good way), a lot of bass that ends up blurring together as droning for large portions of this and I didn't recall having this feeling in Part One's score. A couple of nice tracks that spring up towards the end though

@Porthos Gonna need daily tracking for the Tenet re-release, thanks. -
I like the understated-ness of Murphy (and less enthused with RDJ) a lot but I do think Giamatti is great in Holdovers. Murphy does have a ridiculous load to bear for Oppenheimer but yeah, I don't know, depends on whether the Oscar voters are gonna try and spread the wealth where they can this year or just do what happened last year. I would hope Giamatti and Murphy are gonna get Oscar opportunities in the future but these aren't usually leading men guys, less so Giamatti so this is probably going to forever be their shot for Best Actor specifically.

Could easily see Cillian getting BAFTA and Giamatti getting SAG. I'd lean Giamatti in the end though

Wakanda Forever was an obvious success financially and I would say generally liked by its target audience but I guess I’m not sure at how successful it was at getting audiences excited for the next one. Which isn’t the point for the movie but I imagine Marvel is probably unsure where to go right now with that
