No worries, usually the province of Quebec is excluded from such prizes because of our strict gambling laws. I'm used to it

This duel between KFP4 and Dune2 is quite something to see
They keep one-upping each other and just when you think one is down, they get back up and snatch the win again!

Just a 12.6% drop for Dune 2, sitting in 2nd place still
To put things in perspective, on OW the Quebec share of the domestic BO was 2.26%, which is logical considering Quebec is 2.14% of the Domestic population (USA + Canada). Now on last weekend the share is at 3.93%, nearly double.
Incredible legs here. Let's see if it reaches 4.52% which would be double the OW share
Edit: for those wondering, the OW was $1,862,192 vs current total of $7,621,183 for a multiplier of 4.09, so far

Canadians love Timothee. After all, he is super fluent in French.
What I would give to have this man speak beautiful (or dirty 👀) to me in French. Won't understand a word he's saying, but he's so....so sexy when he speaks French. 😍
By the way, I am a native French speaker and his accent speaking French is one of the best out there. Like other celebrities try, and that's commendable, but he's on another level.
For sure he almost nearly sounds like a native. Incredible. Even if he makes a few mistakes here and there (mostly words borrowed from English), the actual accent (intonation, way of speaking) is 100% on point. And that's the hardest part of French to get.
The only American who speaks better French is Jodie Foster, and that's because her accent is essentially native as she went to school in French from a young age. Her French is, quite simply, flawless.
But his is close second in terms of non-native celebrities speaking French.Edit: They have a French bubble on set according to Denis Villeneuve (the 2 of them speak only French) and that made my day when he said that.

Dune 2 is the first movie I watched in a cinema since COVID. Tried to get back into the interest to watch another movies since COVID before, but every time it fell through, like the movie was not interesting enough for whatever reason or people around me got ill again
Out of those that are already watching movies in a cinema again, most started to visit cinemas again in 2023, a smaller part was not back even yet.
Welcome back! Glad to see you around these parts again

It also feels like we've done this before.
As opposed to yet another project exploring what happened between Episode III and Episode IV?
Or yet another Mandalorian project or spin-off? (or yet another project exploring what happened between Episode VI and Episode VII?)
Or more Skywalker stories? Or spin-off of spin-offs of characters stemming from Skywalker stories?
Bring me more of stuff like The Acolyte and less of everything above, thank you

He didn’t ruled out the possibility of adapting Children in the future as well. To be fair that’s the story that wraps up everything, even tho is not Paul centric. He just needs time.
I’m pretty sure the only reason Part 3 has not be already announced is that WB is pushing for the sequel now while Denis wants to make another film inbetween.
Also he wants to rest. I watched his Radio-Canada interview (in French) and he's like, I just wanna sleep back home guys, pls

I sure it'll be fine but when everyone is a Jedi and everyone has a lightsaber it makes the universe feel boring. The poster was dark and gritty but the trailer wasn't.
That's... literally the point of setting the show in the High Republic period (100 years before Phantom Menace)
It's the Jedi at the height of their power. And the story follows them. Of course there will be Jedi?
I swear there's no pleasing some people. Put more Jedi! Put less Jedi! wtf

Denis also wants to do other things besides Dune.
One last movie, and then NEXT. I mean he loves the universe but he doesn't want to spend all the remainder of his life in this universe.
He'll be done after the 3rd

Massive 67.9% drop for Kung Fu Panda 4. Dune 2 just ate all its business here

Sure but my point is will it have a better SUN drop than last week's? We'll know tomorrow...
Good point. Indeed it seems doubtful. Going with -28% would have been safer

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.
It literally is at $500M ($497M) right now after WW weekend estimates.
Missing $600M is impossible at this point.

WB is projecting a 25% drop on SUN for Dune. Good luck with that. I believe drops should be worse than last week since the brunt of spring break should be over on MON.
Dune has had way better Sunday drops than most movies so far, because of PLF.

It'll end at exactly $300M if it plays out like GOTG 3 from third weekend onward (actually a pretty good comp for this movie)
I wish it would, but the odds are it won't play out like GOTG3.
In the later parts of its run GOTG3 was starting to have summer hugely benefitting late legs. Dune 2 won't have that.
Also it's losing PLFs soon. And it's not a four quadrant movie.
But the $300M dream isn't entirely dead yet. It's on life support at best, though.
