>When Alejandro Jodorowsky couldn't get the funding for his Dune movie, he was devestated. He had spent 2.5 years preparing a 14 hour script, and one of the most elaborate story boards that the industry had ever seen, and has been used as the text book for pre-production in every hollywood studio since. On top of this he had been training his son to portray Paul Atreides, which for him was a role with quasi-religious significance. Jodo had spent time gathering a clique of surrealist artists to star in what was to be the coming of age story for the next generation, but when the studios saw how ambitious his project was, he wasn't able to get the funding he needed to complete his vision.
>When Lynch managed to get funding for a more studio friendly version, Jodo's son asked him to go to the theatre and see it. Jodo was devestated, he had to go and watch somebody else's version of a film that he felt that he was destined to make. When Jodo got to the theatre, burying his head in his hands, he slowly found himself overjoyed as he remarked to himself:
>"It's Shit!"
This exactly how I am going to feel when I go and watch the Capeshitted navel staring grim-dark version of Dune that is utterly inevitable from the likes of Legendary Studios with the clout chasing cast that his been selected to garner mass appeal in the Chinese market.
Everything about the pre-production of this movie is wrong. It will be nothing like LOTR, they spent years in pre-production, and filmed the entire triology in one go. The studio is not invested in making this movie what is supposed to be. They are in it for the cash, that's it. Don't believe me? Legendary was bought out by a fucking Chinese Real-Estate Company in 2016. Yeah. It's that bad.
Man, Dune is fucking lame. I'm ashamed to say I read 1.5 of the books and they're utter garbage. I wish we could move on from this as a culture.

>\tv/ creams itself over BR2049 >Shits over Dune ?
Isaac Rogers
lynch's dune is literally better then every film jodo made though
Lincoln Williams
>he creams himself unironically
Charles Adams
I read all 6 of them, they are pseud garbage which get progressively worse. It's a hugely overrated book series, 90% of what people pretend to love in it happens in the first book.
Levi Roberts
Jodorowsly has literally filmed himself making turds that are better than Lynch’s Dune.
Julian Ortiz
>This exactly how I am going to feel Are you implying you wrote your own Dune adaptation? That's pretty pathetic buddy But yeah, BR2049 proved to every non-incel that Denis can't do sci fi
Jackson Rogers
Book of the New Sun >>>>>> Dune
Bentley Collins
Oh cool can we have a capeshit Warhammer 40k series next? I mean why not the fucking planet is dying and everything is fucked let's just go for it guys
Thomas Lewis
Really?
Ian Butler
-_- we get it, he's Jesus and youre Catholic. So epic. Nobody else cares about Wolfe
Asher Bennett
hes a awful film maker with his head up his own ass
>90% of it was going to be based on a dream Jodorowsky had one time >would've thrown away the actual plot of the book in favor of whatever psychedelic shit Jodo thought of while hopped up on ketamine >putting his talentless son in the lead role like the nepotistic hack he is >going against the design philosophies set down by the book itself to make everything look like an acid trip for absolutely no reason
Thank God this movie never got made. It would've been so bad nobody would ever want to attempt to adapt the book correctly ever again.
Leo Gonzalez
I'm honestly starting to believe that Dune will be the cape shit killer.
Not because it will be so great that it changes the game, but because it will be such utter elitist trash that people all over the world will begin to boycott big budget films as a matter of principle, and as a demonstration of class and taste.
This heap of trash is going to ruin hollywood for good, mark my words.

Yeah when I saw them casting a bunch of meme and FOTM actors, I knew it was gonna not only flop, but it was probably gonna be shit too.
Jonathan Gutierrez
Read the first one and loved it Read the second one and though it was a giant pile of grabage Started reading the third one because the first was so good but it was actually worst than the second one Dune is amazing because of all the unknown, the unsaid left to the imagination. After that, it's just some kind of soulless Sci-fi with magic and stuff. Very disappointing
Daniel Nguyen
But it wasn't shit. It was a good movie.
Ayden James
Sounds like Jodo got lynched
Brody Brooks
It's looking like Dune is to Yea Forums what Cyberpunk 2077 is to Yea Forums, the shitposting is already at ridiculous levels.
Brody Bennett
Are you saying the twins and god emperor are bad?
Oliver Roberts
>He also planned to cast Orson Welles as Baron Vladimir Harkonnen; Welles only agreed when Jodorowsky offered to get his favourite gourmet chef to prepare his meals for him throughout the filming kek
Lincoln Watson
>literally shits on your story that drug addled scat fetishist needs to commit selfmurder
Jordan Hughes
We will never have anything like Lotr frend. Just accept it it's easier that way.
John Martin
Either it'll be good or it won't be. Who fucking cares. Stop giving Warner Bros. free promotion and ignore it until it comes out
Caleb Nelson
Yeah he's very old school Avant-garde pretentious but I love Jodorowski. I also love Lynchs Dune too. I also like the books. I wish it was a world where Jodorowski and Lynchs Dune both existed simultaneously. Dune honestly needs to be a series is the real problem. You can't wrap that shit up in 90 minutes.
