Oh yeah, you'd think that David Lynch was a real left field choice to direct this, but Jodorowsky would have been like letting Buñuel do a James Bond. And it's not like this was some pipe dream that was quickly abandoned, they had already spent a ton on pre-production, and the involvement of Pink Floyd and H.R. Giger alone would have made this worthwhile. You've probably already seen it, but the Jodorowsky's Dune documentary offers a pretty good overview of this unfinished project and its influence on later films.
