Fellini would've been great for the more decadent side of it. Sian Phillips' Reverend Mother could've walked straight from the set of Satyricon. My point, though, was DDL had a good vision for the film, as did Lynch. They were just incompatible. That's ultimately down to DDL but persoanlly I reckon I'd have enjoyed a 'pure' DDL Dune more than I would a 'pure' Lynch one. (Although that may be because I've never read the book or had any interest in it.)
