Oh, and I'm sure most of you know this, but DUNE was originally directed by Jodorowsky, who probably would've made it a masterpiece. Can you imagine?!
...Also, Lynch turned down... which Star Wars? Return of the Jedi?... to direct Dune. Can you imagine?
Weird world... now, Lynch can't get financing, period, except from some French investors! But, yeah, as for Dune being worse than Inland Empire, Lynch disowned it, and I am going to go ahead and respect that disownment. It's not really a Lynch film, anyway, never was; but, yeah, I mean, it's probably the worst film ever made, but hell, at least Sting is entertaining in it -- his scenes offer more entertainment than the entirety of Inland Empire AND More Things That Happened combined.
