Alejandro Jodorowsky tried to adapt Herbert’s story in 1970 in which he was not successful because of financial issues (the saga which has been relayed in a 2013 documentary “Jodorowsky’s Dune”), and now in a recent interview with France’s Premiere Magazine, he reflected his thoughts on the newly released trailer and wished good luck to Denis and the entire production staff.In his comment, Jodorowsky remarked that though the scenes are really good, the money which made the film very expensive did nothing about its predictability.

Denis Villeneuve’s Dune looks pretty much the same in “form,” as did the other on-screen adaptations of Frank Herbert’s novel.

He clearly stated that industrial cinema is made solely for the purpose of entertainment, and for the industry, everything else is secondary when compared to money and profit.

It is not built with the purpose of changing society or humanity.However, in an interview with IndieWire in August, Alejandro Jodorowsky was skeptical about anyone pulling off such a film.

David Lynch tried to make it in 1984, which resulted in a monumental failure starting with Lynch taking his name from the credits after he was denied his director cut and his total disapproval of the theatrical cut.In the interview with the premiere magazine, Jodorowsky also gave his insights on the book.

And according to him, that is what makes it so hard to adapt because it’s not a child’s play to find images to substitute the words written in the novel.
