when you said late next year which movie were you looking at?

BlackManta:


It's just like he said, you can shoot and kill someone but you cannot offend the alphabet community

abduleez1:
I might be forced to check out this Dave Chappelle Sticks and Stones and Closer you peeps been hyping up these days.

DieRich5:
I tire
Una, which of Dem una Dy hype here abi na all I need to watch

Nickshrapnel:
He is incapable of being canceled. Uncancelable

abduleez1:


Lol, didn't even had a movie in mind. But as you mentioned it my mind flashed to Aquaman 2.

There's still a Jurassic World that could smash box office in the summer.

Aquaman 2 was where my mind flashed to too
Still madly in love with that new Manta suit

abduleez1:
Lol, some peeps saying Disney chickened out and pushed Doctor Strange 2 off The Batman way.

Pu7pl3 you seeing this.

I saw it MJBOLT also shamelessly posted it on the marvel thread

That Batman looks wicked and they didn't want to take any chances

Nah, they won't continue the status quo for Tent pole movies debuting same day next year. Shortest 45 days.
They ACTUALLY have a plan for these movies that won't be premiering on HBOMax.
Casey Bloys (HBOMax Chief Content Officer) said they've got movies specifically made for Max alone/mainly for it. They notice people who came for the movies later stayed on and watched some Series. They noticed the interconnectivity that's why they'll keep feeding the movie audience in it just before their biggies comes up: HOTD, GL series and The Last of Us.

That's the main reason you're seeing so many smaller DC characters getting movies: Batgirl, Zatanna, Static Shock, Blue Beetle etc.
WB is committing at least 10-13 new movies specifically for HBOMax from next year, including the DC movies.

abduleez1:

The two I mentioned are the most talked about. IMO.

pu7pl3:
Dune was okay, slow build up, the visuals were great but I didn't understand some of the visions...they all seemed muddled

And the cliff hanger had me groaning for more

VerifiedStalin:

The greatest mistake people make is watching Dune without knowing the full context. That's way it's imperative to read the books first to get the sense of what it's about. The world of Dune is very complex I tell you, there's a lot going on.

I'm in book 4, and probably won't finish the whole series till January/February 2022. For the meantime, I've backburnered Dune (2021) indefinitely.

AnfieldFan:

You do know HBO subscribers are included in the HBOMax subs too right?

abduleez1:


Lol, bruh HBO subscribers are about 4 million subs in comparison to HBOMax 40.6 million subs.
So combined they are in 44.6 million subscribers. So man, HBO subs doesn't really count. The numbers have been steadily declining each quarter.
If they're up to 2.5 million by end of the year sef I'd be surprised.

pu7pl3:


your own better nau

Calibrator:
Dune


Minus the visualgasm and relative names on the cast.

Judging by the first part...... Very generic plot unless the fun is stashed in the second part.

VerifiedStalin:


There are two Dune comic series currently being published.

• Dune The Graphic Novel Book 1: It covers the original first Dune novel. According to people who've read it, it's a scene by scene adaptation; although the dialogue is shortened, it doesn't leave out any events from the book. If you're more into visual storytelling, this may be a good way to get into the story. Just keep in mind that the second and third parts of the books are not due for awhile.

• Dune: House Atreides: a prequel to Dune. Took place 35 years before the events of the first Dune novel.

VerifiedStalin:


Generic plot?

I haven't watched it, but according to people that have watched Dune and also read the books, the plot, though rushed, is very faithful to its source materials, and coming from someone who is currently reading the books, I can confidently tell you that Dune's plot(s) is not generic, if anything it's peculiar.

AnfieldFan:


When did HBOMax launch?

How many subscribers did they gain initially from HBO?

pu7pl3:


okay, I see the idea...it's a good one but pirates like us will suffer again

abduleez1:

Launched 2020.

Don't remember, Prolly 29 million or so.
All in all, they're almost the same since it's same platform, same company. Just tweaks here and there with added content.

Dune: 4/4 stars

Part Game of Thrones, Lord of The Rings and Star Wars, Dennis Villeneuve's Dune is a visual spectacle elevated by a poignant score from Hans Zimmer.

This was an entertaining flick which is something I've come not to expect from Villeneuve's projects.
