This probably means they don't have to rush the editing/sfx and can do the reshoots they wanted to do, also maybe work on pre-production of part 2

Just a much larger chance that an actor dies before filming part 2

They are going to spend more on marketing, which they wasted this year. That's it.

They're definitely not going to start shooting the next movie before the first one is seen by anybody.

I dunno. If it makes too much money they'll eventually get to adapting the failson's books. Maybe we're better off with it being a flop?

I don't think Herbert's additions to Dune were any better than what anyone else added later, I will always prefer Dune to standalone.

You would have to have a Jackson LOTR level hit to get to the failson material

But we're going to get a Bakshi LOTR level hit that gets through half the story in one movie and ends forever

I don't know if my opinion would shift had Frank managed to write Dune 7 before dying but I think Dune + Messiah + Children + God Emperor + Encyclopedia is pretty much perfect, and Chapterhouse/Heretics are....interesting, but not on the same level as any of the material that preceded them. They are also way, way too horny.

Uhh, guys?

The new tentative release date is October 1st. The same (tentative) release date as The Batman.
They're loving burying Dune, y'all. Which is going to be the source for many sand-based puns for article titles when the media outlets pick up on this fact.

You take that back. I will not stand by and let you implicitly criticize the Tiger Assassin plot. Or the "Bene Tleilaxu's millenia of planning is undone when they just take a really obvious Bene Gesserit lie at face value for no real reason" plot.

The Batman, which stars Robert Pattinson as the caped crusader, is on the move again. After a series of production delays, the superhero pic’s release date in theaters is being pushed from Oct. 1, 2021 to March 4, 2022, Warner Bros. announced Monday evening.

I...don't think this would be bad. The thing is Pattinson grew as an actor after Twilight, iirc Cosmopolis was his first movie made him "Huh, that frizzly hair boy from HP and Twilight can act, whaddaya know"

Weren't there murmurs about all the post-processing (cutting, editing, and everything else but shooting) being impacted by COVID-19? If so, I would think that a delay would give them more time to work on a better movie, which seems like a good thing to me.
