Yeah, it sounds amazing, but I think it would have been a disaster. Jodorowsky never actually read Dune, and he had the grandiose, completely impractical ideas: Salvador DalĂ­ as the Emperor, his girlfriend with no acting experience as Irulan, Jodorowsky's son who also had no acting experience as Paul (the main character). Jodorowsky saw himself more as a God than a Director, IMO.
