@Noodles I know it's blasphemous but Pink Floyd don't do anything for me. I've tried, on paper should like them but just don't lol.

That last shot of the trailer is so epic. I just hope that Covid doesn't F up its release and it makes money, so we can get some sequels.

I like the look of this. Dune never did anything for me and I can’t stand the lynch version so I wasn’t too bothered about this announcement etc but the cast and Villeneuve always interested me. Certainly has his style with that arrival/ blade runner look.
hopefully it’s decent. That sand worm thing at the end looks savage
 
Delayed to October 2021. :(
Woah, I expected it to be delayed but not this far. I suspect that the delay isn't solely because of covid. My guess is that the film is not quite finished yet with the extra shoot they did this summer...

I think it comes down to finding slots for movies to open and the fact that productions largely shut down for 6+ months (and many are probably still shut down). I also suspect theaters will largely remain empty until Covid is easily treated or there’s a widely available vaccine (which is likely not sooner than next summer or fall). I hope some of these movies happen This year, but my guess is nothing but small flicks will hit theaters. I think the next big one is the Pixar flick and I suspect it‘ll be delayed or <gag> moved to Disney +.

On the plus side, you may have already seen all the movies up for best picture In 2021.
