No, we will not have the cursed DUNE popcorn bucket.

As we get closer and closer to Dune Part 2, this has been playing in my head on repeat.

I’m going to be in the theater, lights go down, and all you’ll hear is me humming this.
And you’ll think it’s from the Hanks movie. But no. It’s this. https://t.co/WyfxDYMHKC
I take it you're not familiar with Lights Camera Jackson.
It could still be a couple hours, but my obsessive refreshing of the showtime listings has begun. In fact, I have two theaters/tabs open, ready to grab IMAX tickets for either one the second they're available.

I have never bought a popcorn bucket in my life. I will find that and purchase. Insert Fry take my money gif.
Would you like extra butter with that?Arrakis ecologist said:

Denis Villeneuve asked Josh Brolin to work with Hans Zimmer to develop a song that Gurney could play on the baliset in DUNE: PART TWO.

Brolin worked for a month and a half on writing the lyrics, and Zimmer wrote the music — the song *has* made it into the final cut this time! pic.twitter.com/qZ6UEB82US

Everyone who was worried about Austin Butler's Elvis accent being carried into Dune Part Two can rest easy now. pic.twitter.com/VRZ2kms0qO

I experienced this as well. I was trying to get backup tickets for a second viewing later in the week, at a different IMAX (the flagship AMC IMAX at Universal Sh*ttywalk), and it wasn't until later in the day that the site finally started working. I was only able to snag one ticket for the Tuesday night showing on March 5. Crazy...
Demand for ‘DUNE 2’ tickets seemingly crashed AMC’s website & app.

What's a good resource for figuring out what theater to go to? I'm in the boonies, so it'll be a 2+hr drive from the closest theater with an imax, so it's no biggie if I need to go a little further to get the biggest/best screen and experience for this. I'm in deep Appalachia, so Atlanta, Knoxville, Chattanooga, Asheville, and maybe even Charlotte are options for me.

At this point I think a billion worldwide is legitimately in play, with a low of $800M or so. The buzz is off the charts, screenings are selling out like crazy, and it has two full moths to cook at the box office before summer, with not a ton of completion during that time (mainly just Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire)...
specified fast-turnaround because movies like top gun maverick or force awakens represented an insane leap in unadjusted grosses, but those also had 30 years of pent-up demand on their side. this would be very different. my money is on a finish closer to 600-700, but who knows

I'm going to see it twice.
You're saying the low of this movie is $800M domestic, and a top 5 movie of all time?
I know, I assume you mean worldwide.
I know we've debated this one before and I still see no chance of $1B, but I do think $600M+ is definitely on the table now. (Which would already be a 50% increase from the first one.)
Would love to be wrong and see it hit $800M, but I just don't see it doubling the first.

Sorry, yes, I meant worldwide.
As for doubling the first one, again, there are two major asterisks to consider...
- Part One was released on HBO Max the same day it was released in theaters.
- Part One was released during the pandemic. Yes, it was the tail end of the pandemic, but there was still a ton of hesitation to return to theaters in October 2021.
In other words, that $402M worldwide is a lot lower than it otherwise would have been, i.e. demand/interest would have been higher.

Plus, Wonka was a bigger hit than expected and Chalamet is even more well known around the world now.
But, that's just too huge a jump, imo. Again, would love to be wrong.

Good point, re: Chalemet.
Also, the star power is off the charts this go around, with the additions of Butler and Pugh, and a much-expanded Zendaya role as well.
I don't know, considering the buzz we've heard so far, I'm just getting the feeling that it's going to be one of those blockbusters that really resonates with audiences and leads to tons of repeat viewings for weeks on end. Heck, I've already bought tickets for two different showtimes, days apart, which I've never done this far in advance.
We also haven't had a big, crowd-pleasing blockbuster since Barbenheimer, seeing as the holiday season was pretty much a dud last year. In other words, audiences are primed and starved for a big budget box office hit again, and this one could very well deliver in that regard.

Hope you're not putting Pugh in a star class with Zendaya. I have it on good authority that Pugh once asked out Spilner and he told her he was washing his hair that night.TCTTS said:
