Beautiful cast and romance emphasis are connecting with that marked I'd say. But yes, the movie is increasing over the first one everywhere so far only not sure about China didn't check the thread yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see it reach $20M there. Edited February 18 by ando Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Japan is not really a sequel market and the first Dune was not even really hindered by covid there so I see very little reason that would be the case.

I guess the biggest challenges in OS for Dune in addition to loosing Russia are Japan and China. Coin tosses on how it's going to perform in these right now. Would love to know some estimates from China soon but we might have proper ones just after Dune Part 1 re-release in early March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the most realistic scenario is it declines in China and makes ~20M, loses russia, but sees solid gains in LATAM and pretty good gains in europe/aus/sk manage to get it 350+. perhaps 400+ OS. Japan remains irrelevant for the film. DOM sees easily the bigges increase and handily crosses 200, perhaps hits 250 film ends up somewhere in the 600-650 area, perhaps not as big as the hopefuls (me included) would like, but has a solid run, is acclaimed, gets us messiah. of course if it does better than that all the better 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That number would already give Villeneuve all the budget and creative freedom that he needs to make Messiah (not that he likely has had any challenges on that after Part 1 already). It's already gravy train territory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I asked Mark@Insidekino about potential of Dune 2 in Germany and he is saying Blockbuster level(3m+ admits). I hope it hits Oppenheimer level at minimum 🙂 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is what was posted in the Brazil tracking thread: "The first 24 hours of pre-sales of Dune 2 are just a little above those from The Flash. That is decent actually, given that The Flash opened with R$16M+ and the first Dune opened with "only" R$5M."

keysersoze123 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 China presales have also started. Longer cycle than Oppenheimer and so I think that would be a good benchmark. Anything higher would be gravy for this movie. Good China number would lock 500m+ OS. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valonqar Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 The movie has enough spectacle to at least does better than the first in China I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I finally saw Dunr Part 1 in IMAX a week and a half ago. It was breathe taking and the best viewing experience of the five times I've seen it. It is a movie that gets better and needs more viewing times to process it. What I read from Part 2 reactions, it is even more of that and if there is that Batman -> Dark Knight jump, I can imagine repeat views to multiple handedly compareded to Part 1. Plus the buzz that people who didn't like Part 1 so much will enjoy Part 2. It can lure them and new GA people after the opening for second and third weekend.
