+1 for Jodorowsky's Dune. It's a fascinating study of "the greatest sci fi movie never made". You can see its DNA in Star Wars, Bladerunner, Alien and more.

I hope some day Moebius and Jodorowsky's storyboards are published in the public domain

Regardless of whether the storyboards are in the public domain, I'm sure that someone will eventually "make" Jodorowsky's Dune using AI tools. Feed in the artwork, novels, and actors to get a complete movie out. This will be technically possible within a few years. It will probably look good (at least for casual viewing) but the human performances will still seem a little odd.

I'm not claiming that this will necessarily be a good thing from an artistic or legal perspective. But there are enough Dune fans out there with access to AI video tools that someone will eventually do it.

I'd definitely be more interested in seeing the storyboard than the AI generated movie. I guess that says something about how I/we value of AI generated content
I love how this slop is something you think we should be looking forward to.
The thing about slop, is if it is continuously improving slop, maybe one day it won’t be slop any more
