I heard they will decide on Dune Messiah depending on if/when it breaks even which needs to be at least $600 M. Budget was $190 M and marketing was apparently $150 M.
Loved the movie but can someone explain to me what was the significance of Chani preparing for the sandworm at the end? Was this a preparation for a suicide or something lol I haven't read the book or saw part one so I didnt understand that

Audience was really into the movie, people who would go to the bathroom would slow walk as to not miss a scene lol Javier Bardem got a couple laughs in the movie.
Lots of applause at the end of the movie
It’s rare for blockbusters to win but if the subject matter is one that the Academy likes it’s possible. (IE; war, WWII, Holocaust) it becomes easier. Schindlers List was another WWII era film that won Best Picture and was one of the highest grossing movies of the 1993.
Oppy is a war era film those are almost guaranteed an Oscar. Sci Fi is nearly impossible for Best Picture. Even though people on here said Shape of Water, it’s not actually classified as a Sci-fi film, it’s a Fastasy/Romance.
Denis apparently might hire Zendaya for this so it’ll be another black Cleopatra. Not sure if it’s true though although the production sheet came out a few months ago before Denis actually confirmed the movie.
Yeah and action/sci-fi films along with comedies have a difficult time winning in major categories at the Oscars. A sci fi film has never won Best Picture
