This would have been a very different movie adaptation of Dune.
Mick Jagger as Feyd? Orson Wells as the Baron? Salvador Dali as the emperor and David Carradine as Duke Leto with visuals by H.R. Geiger and a soundtrack from Pink Floyd?
Holy crap. What could have been...

Oh man! Someone needs to redo that, though it won't be the same without Salvador Dali on a planet of gold. :)

Sounds like one of oceanic's dreams, to me. ;o)

Sadly, Dali only makes rare appearances in my dreamscape... ;)

what could have been? because the world needs more self-indulgent re-imaginings of perfectly brilliant works of art into tawdry dreamscapes of over-saturated, over-hyphenated, sophomoric pastiche?

I'm going to assume that was a rhetorical question...

sadly, there are some things that can only exist in our minds. honestly though, this is probably better to ponder than to actually see. i would've thought the material in david lynch's hands would work. some things are just beyond cinematic means...
