Jodorowsky's Dune: Why The "Greatest Film Never Made" Still Can't Be
TheSpiceDAO's recent acquisition of the production "bible" for Alejandro Jodorowsky's interpretation of Dune has made headlines, but the film that has long fascinated movie and sci-fi fans is still very unlikely to be made. An experimental and surrealist Chilean director, Jodorowsky attempted to make a Dune adaptation in the 1970s whose mind-boggling ambition is still an obsession of many. Recently, a cryptocurrency-based company called TheSpiceDAO purchased a rare pitch book at an auction for $3 million dollars, and have stated that they plan to make a version of Dune in line with Jodorowsky's vision. However, this is not how movie rights work.
