Yeah, it was pretty lame. Too distant of connections for me to really think George Lucas was trying actively drawing from anyone. The hero archetype is everywhere, turn on your Saturday morning. Fucking James Bond Jr. could be said to have been ripping off of Campbell if they wanted to say so. I had an "o rly" face the entire time.
There's a much more interesting documentary on Dune that goes into defining a messiah as well as the power struggles in the book.
