Will this be a “Woke” version, where transgenders with purple hair wonder why they can’t watch Tik Toc videos on their iPhones?

Read it years ago. It was a good read. Also hoping they stick close to the book as possible.

Been a while since there’s been a good post apocalyptic movie. I.hope it’s good!

I may actually go to a movie theater for the first time since before Covid. I think “Rise of Skywalker” was last movie I paid to see in a movie theater?? That was released Dec 2019.

Figure six months to a year plus for post depending on VFX workload and budget. This looks like a mid budget to low budget so might not have as much or pay enough to bump it. Unless hollywood has wised up and it’s filling screens along side the summer crop of blockbusters, pessimistically it’s getting buried in the back to school window or as February filler. Optimistically it’s filling screens alongside Thanksgiving or Christmas tentpoles. Middle ground they let it cook a bit and it opens up the season with a march 2027 release. For perspective, Civil War had about 1000 VFX shots and that took about 2 years from the start of principle photography to festival release.

No mention of a release date other than '2027".

Still looking forward to seeing this. I enjoyed the books. May go back and read them again.
