McFly!! Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Have you guys seen this docu? This would be a real trip if he turned it into an anime series (or 3-part ova) IMO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight26 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 That would be cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Togo Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I've seen this docu. Certainly, the man was passionate about what they had developed, and the pre-production work does look fantastic. But if you know the filmmaker, the era it was to be made in, and the technological limitations that existed, this film would certainly not have been the end-all-be-all some film geeks have declared it to be. We'd of had a better chance ending up with something even stranger and goofier looking than Flash Gordon ended up being. In my mind Ridley Scott's Dune is the one we really missed out on.

EXO Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 The best thing to come out of this project was Alien. Great documentary though and it led to some of the best comic book collaborations ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McFly!! Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Since hollywood's on a reboot roll, do you guys think that Dune could be the next one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taksraven Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Lynch's film may be flawed, but it does have it's moments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight26 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Honestly I find the Lynch version unwatchable for the most part and much prefer the syfy miniseries, despite the low budget, it was far more true to the book, deveating mostly to give Irulan more screen time.

boinger Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Amazon Japan has a pre-order for a limited edition of Jadorowsky's Dune documentary. I think that is what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr March Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Love the cover of that limited edition. Nice set.I've seen this documentary. An excellent film. Jodorowsky is an incredible personality and it's easy to see why he infected those around him with his contagious enthusiasm. He also has a way of looking at art that is humbling, always daring the viewer to question one's motive for what one does in life. I'm not convinced Jodorowsky's "Dune" would have been a good film, but it would have been something very fearless and creative. At worst it would have been a very interesting failure, certainly no more or less than Lynch's own film. This documentary is definitely worth a watch.
