Tsune T @RT69838185 Apr 20 Amazing story of what could have been and what was. Looking at the state of cinema in 2026, one can sympathize with Jodorowsky's outlook as a talented and passionate craftsman. Interviews are insightful and don't shy from critique of people at the project, which I find to be very honest. It's wonderful to see such colorful characters show up as O'Bannon, Giger, and Foss. Every time I watch this documentary, a spark of creativity brightens up in me and gives me much joy. It's good to see the glory of human creativity at its peak in the age of AI slop. Must-watch for fans of sci-fi, especially those interested in Dune or ALIEN. See more Omar G @RT49327706 12/26/2024 Jodorowsky's Dune (2013). Someone should make the fan film to YouTube with the appearance of the actors considered, through artificial intelligence when the technology is perfected. Or with the appearance of Moebius' drawings. It is about the recruitment of talents to create the film. "I raping Frank Herbert... With love." It is not known if all that is said is true but it is entertaining. The passion for the project, the spiritual warriors and the supposed influence on Hollywood films. What I did not like was the joy for the commercial failure of Dune (1984) because I like the film. The best possible version of Frank Herbert's Dune would be the extended version by David Lynch with the death of Thufir Hawat and other unused scenes so that the cut would only last 2 hours 16 minutes, that cut would be better than the three Dune films made to date. But the very cretin Lynch does not want to make his Director's cut. The film Dune (1984) is also superior in the cast, the quotes from the film, the soundtrack, the costume designs, it has more imagination (you see Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam bald and the Harkonnens are all redheads), to the two films by Denis Villeneuve Dune: Part One (2021) and Dune: Part Two (2024), based on the book by Frank Herbert Dune (1965).

All the artists who contributed to the effort were geniuses in their own fields. Happily, their work is used for many science fiction films thereafter.

RIP Jodorowsky's Dune, the greatest movie never made.
