Director Jodororsky's film was ABANDONED in the 1970s but is credited with inspiring sci-fi epics from Alien to Star Wars. Is that true? Or is it a good thing that Jordorowsky's Dune never saw the light of day?

He thinks he is "le-smart" and has a strong message, but never understood the ACTUALLY INTELLIGENT message of the book because HE NEVER READ IT. TO QUOTE HIMSELF "HE (r worded) FRANK HERBERT" why do you ask? To make his story "actually good", of course. T'ed his own son too.

@FrameVoyager 4 месяца назад

It's not that he didn't have a part to play, but the affecting part of this all seems to be around the artwork. Which he did well in getting talented artists, but my premise was the Dune film itself didn't inspire sci-fi it was the artists from this project that were extremely talented and went on to make movies in science fiction namely "Star Wars, Alien, The Terminator, Flash Gordon and Raiders of the Lost Ark" that they mention among others. I just find this a bit absurd and see it as a usual tactic of his throughout his career of adding importance to his projects, that while may have been great, were not these industry changing spiritual revelations that he makes them all out to be. That's all. Nothing against this version of Dune, I just think he over embellishes a lot and we showed that throughout the video.

@gaiusflaminius4861 3 месяца назад

@@FrameVoyager 1. "but my premise was the Dune film itself didn't inspire sci-fi it was the artists from this project that were extremely talented and..." - it was Jodorowsky who assembled these talents, and based on the revelations of these talents you cite yourself, he created a highly inspirational atmosphere that induced all kinds of creative ideas. You're treating this part mechanically, separating Jodorowsky from his team as if people are wooden figures endowed with certain qualities that show under any circumstances. They don't. I have experiensed that myself. The role of a spiritual figure, a mentor, a father, a sage, a maharishi and so on has been the perpetual topic throughout the perceived history of humankind. Your premise is shaky. 2. "I just find this a bit absurd and see it as a usual tactic of his throughout his career of adding importance to his projects" - It's not as much him supposedly adding importance to his projects as other people views of those. However, it has nothing to do with importance. It's about attitude, a subjective matter in itself. His brutally eccentric manner and obsession, sweeping away obstacles with little willingness to compromise, sent ripples in the water. I am neither for nor against that. I remain indifferent to one’s personality unless it leads to a prosecutable offense. Even in such instances, I prefer to distinguish between these two aspects. Why do you not? 3. Do I think Jodorowsky movie would flop or not? There's no way to know. Do I wish Jodorowsky made it? Absolutely.

Even if the film itself didn't get made the amount of creativity and other projects this helped spawn is justification enough for it almost being made.

@FrameVoyager 4 месяца назад

For sure! But I think the creativity belongs to the artists like H.R Giger, Dan O'bannon, Moebius, and others that actually went on to work on all of the sci-fi films it's credited in inspiring. A lot of the projects that it supposedly "inspired" are not really direct connections. Like with Star Wars, "George Lucas probably saw the Dune script." Is a usual line we've seen. So to me, it's more that the right creative talent got brought together at the right time and because of this project that failed, they now could go on together to make films like Alien or Blade Runner. You don't really see Jodorowsky follow.

@Aldo.flores 3 месяца назад

This “absurd” movie it’s actúa the most important movie on history, because of all that could be and specially the team Jodorowsky reunited were responsible of all sci-fi (and other genders) movies from the 80’s, 90’s and 2000. Actually the storyboard its still used by the studios as example to make the ones for new productions.

He made Pink Floyd and forever changed other band members minds, led them into this new realm of ideas and artistic beauty. Later he completely lost his mind and developed mental issues.

@troubadour723 4 месяца назад

There are basically three types of sci-fi/fantasy: 1) Fandom -- utilitarian, reactionary, RPG-based, militaristic. 2) Grounded -- basically a gentrification of the genre. Made for critics and award committees. 3) Visionary, surreal, unfettered, psychedelic -- Jodorowsky, Metal Hurlant, lots of 70s sci-fi. Niche, sadly dormant, but with lots of terrain left unexplored before receding in the blockbuster era. A more open-minded public would embrace or at least support ideas like Jodorowsky's. But the general public has been successfully conditioned to embrace monetary-based spectacle over art. Exploratory artists are perpetually out of favor. It's hard to light a spark in a vacuum.

Jodorowski created El Topo, and the Holy Mountain - two of the greatest films ever. The opinion presented in this video that Hollywood studio execs were justified in not trusting Jodorowski to make Dune is complete garbage. Go watch those movies and you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. You'll also likely be an imaginatively enhanced person.

@FrameVoyager 3 месяца назад

The trust aspect has nothing to do with how good/bad those films were and everything to do with the things he said. Didn't call his films garbage, I just pointed out he says some crazy stuff. That could cost Hollywood's execs money if there was controversy over that.

@Culdune 3 месяца назад

@@FrameVoyager I didn't say that you called his films garbage. We're going to have to agree to disagree here. We all know Hollywood actors, directors, and producers are famously shown saying and even worse doing headline grabbing highly unethical things. Yet they're almost always allowed to continue with their careers after the dust settles. Jodorowski would have made artistic and pop culture triumph. It would have been psychedelic Star Wars before Star Wars. The big execs of Hollywood rejected his film because of the proposed big budget not because he was an impractical pervert.

@Tantraloverful 3 месяца назад

Jodorowsky was not a very practical and palatable man for the pragamtism- bent Hollywood studios' bosses, but what is clear that while the current 'Dune' is solid and reliable - it is pedestrian, art-wise - mediocre and unimaginative, visually dreary - dull in a few shades of gray (except literally a moment with the blue 'water of life' potion, the entire flm is a goo of off-white to faded beige to asphalt gray), with every space - whether palaces or cave dwellings - looking like delapidated boxy shelters, and flat acting, all dressed like with leftovers from the Lynch's film - once you look for comparison at what the visionary designer like Iris Van Herpen creates for instance - who should be the designer for such film; instead - nothing like a galactic saga happening 20 thousands (!) years in the future ought to be; for sure - nothing psychedelic or surreal, or mind-bending or peering into the thrills space and mind travel.

Even if this project had been created in their gigantism, it would be nothing more than a Holy Mountain on LSD. Or Holy Mountain Part 2. And in the end a product of its time. Just like all of Jodorowsky's films are a product of their time. And the adaptation would have ignored the crucial point, namely the criticism of the charismatic leader. That's why the film would be completely out of date for today.

Jodorowsky should admit that he lost out on making Dune because of his sloppiness and lack of focus as an artist. He throws ideas onto the screen hoping it will amount to something, like present day Disney.

@AaronLitz 3 месяца назад

It would have been a _horrible_ adaptation of _Dune._ Jodorowsky loves to do weird stuff just for the sake of being weird. And since far more people watch movies than read novels, that bizarre "adaptation" would have supplanted and buried the novel in the popular consciousness, basically ruining _Dune_ for pop culture. Even as a result of Lynch's _Dune_ how many people think that Paul Atriedes actually gained the supernatural power to make it rain on Arrakis at the end of the story, and believe that Paul actually _was_ the Chosen One savior of the Fremen, instead of the intentions of the novel as a _warning against_ charismatic leaders like Paul?
