Driveaway Dolls: 1 line programming ×1

  1. programming (see-in-theaters pairing): Dune: Part Two → Driveaway Dolls. A speaker argues Driveaway Dolls, like Dune 2, is a movie worth seeing in a theater with a crowd.
    “often we're like, you must see Dune 2 in theaters, which is true, but I would also probably argue that you should probably see driveway dolls in theaters”

Javier Bardem: 1 line verdict ×1

  1. verdict (verdict): Javier Bardem → Dune: Part Two. Bardem would get their supporting Oscar from the Dune films.
    “I would give it to Bardem, who I think really threads the needle of like funny and serious and like, I think, such a clever performance.”

Mickey 17: 1 line industry ×1

  1. industry (release clash): Mickey 17 → Dune: Part Two. Warner Bros. moved Dune 2 to March 2024, so Mickey 17 likely could not share that month.
    “they're probably not going to do Dune 2 and Mickey 17 in the same month just from like marketing resources”

Sting: 1 line lineage ×1

  1. lineage (lineage): Sting → Dune: Part Two. Sting's very brief Feyd-Rautha is the character Part Two is built around.
    “Sting is great in this movie, but I always forget that he is in this movie for 5 minutes.”
