qirex posted:jodo dune would have sucked, the book and the stories of its failure are the only things of significance about it it literally could not have been made, because jodorowsky is a crazy person and his plans would have just kept getting wilder and wilder. it's one thing to shove him out in the desert somewhere with $50 and a camera and see what he comes up with, it's another to give him an actual budget and resources and access to talent and expect a result. as you said, the book and the stories are the best thing about it and that's what's interesting to post about. you want a loving weird dune movie that had all the commercial success you could expect? lynch made it. Chris Knight posted:nah I'm sure it would have been a total cluster gently caress, I was just happy we got the documentary and could get his sheer excitement on film. the documentary was good because you see him as completely unrepentant. he has never stopped believing in his vision for the film, which had nothing at all to do with dune or anything else, but was some loving wild rear end bullshit nevertheless

Lynch was also substantially hamstrung by the people who controlled the purse strings. Which would have happened for Jodorowsky, too.

no you don't. nobody actually likes apocalypse now. it's one of those movies you're supposed to like because it's ~great~, but it isn't fun. people like marvel movies. and dune

I haven't seen Apocalypse Now recently, but I'm pretty sure I'd still enjoy watching it today. It's not a forgettable bombastic summer blockbuster, no.

Watched Dunc this weekend. Only previous exposure was watching Jodorowskys Dune. I liked it. Will probably get a rewatch over the next month. Looking forward to the next one. But right now Im in a sand mood so Im going to watch Fury Road.
