The first movie is apparently heading to Netflix in a few days. Good opportunity to gain some new fans.

I was just about to share that news. Hopefully it results in some additional exposure. Need to watch if it makes Netflix’s top ten.

This is great actually, there are still loads of people whose only streaming service is Netflix

Netflix is what people think Twitter is. It's a driver of popularity. You get popular there, you've made it.

Helped Across the Spiderverse. 
 

I’m not expecting an entirely similar boost for Dune. I like the movie, but Denis didn’t make it as GA-friendly as he could have.

True, but I think there's enough in it for certain scenes/moments to go viral due to netflix/tiktok.

Dune in general isn’t a very GA friendly franchise.

I don’t disagree. It’s one of my favorite books. 
 

I tend to think Denis dropped the ball on the sword and shield action. He did a good job setting up how it works and then doesn’t do enough with it, even outright ignoring the rules at times.

Only the most interesting minds coalesce in the back-alley of the internet that is BOT. It's either data analysts tracking movies for fun in their downtime (the dream...) or people who think linking to Threads is socially acceptable.

The owner of Threads is comparatively less irritating than the person who owns Twitter (I will never call it X).

i doubt threads is ever gonna take off tbh

[SpiderByte]

Threads has a built in credibility that's more enticing to advertisers than Twitter probably is right now. If it goes down, due to either bad policy ideas or just the site breaking down, Threads is a very advertiser friendly alternative with a solid user count and awareness already

[Spidey Freak]

Once Threads gets its hashtag usability and Trends section up and running, it's game over for the app FKA Twitter

It's Number 6 on Netflix's Top 10 movies today.

With FNAF shaping up to be a huge hit, I will say moving this turned out to be the right move. The screen crunch would have been too much, particularly as theaters would have been locked into showing Eras for 4 weeks or not showing it at all. Between Eras, KOTFM, FNAF, Dune 2, and Marvels, someone needed to blink and Dune 2 did, and to its benefit, as now actors will likely be able to promote it.

 

The problem is they decided to move it into an even more packed March, when it could have easily functioned as a "Spring kick-off" by releasing on Presidents Day weekend, and would certainly get a longer PLF window.

[filmnerdjamie]

Don't see how it doesn't move to mid-late July given how Warners has been religious about that slot and under these circumstances. Especially if Part 2 delivers the goods like some have suggested.

 

Their summer 2024 slate is weak sauce and there's about to be massive reshufflings all over the place from all the studios for next year.

[AMC Theaters Enjoyer]

Dune is not a summer movie at all. That would be an awful move.

[eddyxx]

I'm really disappointed this isn't releasing til March because every time I watch the trailer it is amazing and it looked like the best film releasing for the remainder of this year. Oh well.
