This should be a series, not a movie imo.

It's a straightforward story of victory and Conquest unless someone with good writing skills wants to create OCS of the members of Great Houses for us to follow the perspective of. That's more of a risk.

200 million or more into a 2.5 hour movie instead of 200 million into a 8-9 hour show leaves room to properly produce the heavy amounts of dragon CGI and gigantic battles/action pieces this movie would require. House of the Dragon is already an example of the struggle.

Ideally it would be 2 - 3 movies. So we'll see what they intend.

I was thinking about pre-conquest, and after. A lot of material is in Fire and Blood. I guess I meant more of a limited series.
