Artist, Filmmaker, Psychomagican - Greater Creators - Alejandro Jodorowsky: Ep7

[@tatehildyard5332]

I actually got to meet the guy a few years ago. It was in a cafe, he gave me a couple of his cards and a small snail toy he told me was made of horse hair. He didn’t know how to say horse hair in English so he just made galloping gestures and rubbed his hands through my hair. They still sit on my bedside.

[@rainyday4970]

That is AWESOME.

[@kinodino2200]

Sounds like something Jodo would do haha

Um....... he's still alive. I met him back in 2017 and he still posts Tarot readings to his YT channel.

Best intro to Jodorowsky's universe in YT. Great video, as usual. One small detail, the j in spanish is pronounced like the h in english. So the correct pronunciation would be, Ale-HAN-dro Ho-dorowsky. Thanks for the video.

[@georgemargaris]

that quick summary of the metabaron saga was intense but hilarious... 😂😂😂

[@lordbjesomar]

Those comics are beyond epic,absolutely great!

As a Jodorowsky fan thanks for a beautiful tribute worthy of the man. Been enjoying your videos a lot these past couple of days. Keep up the great work!!!!!

[@28Pluto]

Does this mean that all the Greater Creator episodes are coming to KZbin??? I hope so, because all of the ones I've seen are great.

Thank you for the deep cuts. This type programming usually doesn't work because it doesn't go in depth at opportune times.

[@knightwing4972]

Thank You Comic Book Girl 19 for Introducing me to Jodorowsky, it Introduced me to European Graphic Novels, lots of Cyberpunk, Science Fiction works & Ultimately To Frank Herbert's DUNE Saga.

[@oberstul1941]

I've seen that documentary and one thing I know for sure: I wouldn't have let that man anywhere close to my beloved DUNE-universe. And I think Frank Herbert kinda hated him too. Still, he had powerful visuals and acid-trips movies to be sure.

[@paulobernardo8593]

Jodorowsky is best when he does Jodorowsky (his own thing). I wish Jodorowsky or nicholas winding refn adapts all his graphic novels which are masterpieces into movie trilogies or long tv series whether live action or animated. For me, He can still continue the so called failed dune project. He can still re structured it without ruining his original ideas, he can still retain the giant worms, there were movies with giant worms anyway like tremors, remove all dune references, replace the movie title dune, replace the characters name and create a new universe independent of dune and more faithful to his own vision. That would be great, in my opinion.

[@paulobernardo8593]

Jodorowsky has his own Jodoverse,which is imaginative by itself, he does not need to bother the dune universe anymore in my opinion.

[@PeacefulPagoda]

So happy to see more Greater Creators on KZbin!

[@The_Cosmic_Jester]

I´m a great fan for many years of Alejandro and i know it personally in her native city, Tocopilla Chile, filming "The Dance of Reality".

Yep, these films F with your head..... and do give you insight. Every time I re-watch, I always see something new!

As much as I love Holy Mountain, I do think El Topo is his masterpiece. His last two movies Dance of Reality and Endless Poetry are great too. The Rainbow Thief is even worth watching, it's here on KZbin. Great video!

I only saw the first fifteen minutes of Santa Sangre, and it stuck with me so much I had to go back and watch the rest a few days later. What a strange and amazing film.

hilarious and informative, also transformative this video

[@timotheories]

I've always been fascinated by space operas. I'm gonna have to check out The Metabarons now, as it wasn't on my radar... Thanks for putting this together CB 19, a fantastic episode on Jodorowsky!

[@winstonbee]

Badasss! Regarding this video..

[@DevastatorJr]

If you're interested in Jodorowsky's ideas, you should check out the famous mystic Gurdjieff. Jodorowsky was a pupil, sorta, of his daughter.

[@ericbarnett9864]

Thanks, I will be checking this guy's work out I'm always in pursuit of new things.

[@DarkLadyAthena1]

Good segment. 👍 This -along w/doc greatest movie never made- sparked my interest on him which led me to discover a whole new space opera that's heavily inspired by classical mythology, other space operas, fairy tales, etc ...

[@caronte008]

He's also the number 1 source of motivational quotes in my Facebook feed.

[@tzacal2]

Loved it.

[@waylontmccann]

Digging the new format and set. Keep up the good work!

[@davedogge2280]

I think his Dune would have been better than David Lynch's as much as I admire Lynch's effort as a beautiful mess.

[@jomiran1000]

I didn't care for Lynch's Dune at all but I have high hopes for Denis Villeneuve's version.

[@celicynd]

After watching the documentary about it, and seeing his works, I feel like it would have been just another beautiful mess that didn't resemble the book.

[@davedogge2280]

yeah celiynd I don't think he would have got the social / economic / political thing right according to the book but it would have been a visual masterpiece hopefully.

[@DagobertX2]

And I feel like it would have been even less fans of the movie. It could very well end up as a train wreck with too much artsy, saying that as an artist. And his version is totally remade, has almost nothing to do with the book. But it's good that he made his own stuff inspired by Dune.

[@dorianleakey]

Lynch's film isn't quite the film he wanted to make.

[@johnsearcy1064]

This was so fun thank you!

[@OrhallaZander]

¡!!!! His movies r soooo good!

[@kevb3047]

You totally crushed these segments u made, they were excellent

[@TheOverlordOfProcrastination]

Great video. I’ve on,y seen Santa Sangre. I bought the Dvd some years ago because I liked the cover art (which they’ve sadly changed now)and was blown away. You just piqued my interest again.

[@Zagardal]

Down here in Chile, where he's from, most people are divided on him. His stuff is way too fucking out there for the masses to, at the very least, watch or read anything by him, and his psychomagic is so out left field that whenever he gets into the subjects of gender or sex, a lot of people just label him as a him a misogynist quack. Can't say I'm into his Tarot endeavors, I don't believe in that stuff one bit, but everything else I've read or watched by him or about him has been fascinating. I have to keep reminding myself to buy a copy of The Incal, read it so long ago and every time I plan to do it again, I stop myself from looking for it online. I need that hard copy.

[@Michael-fs1cw]

Great video - lots of really good info. I'm still new to his work but after watching Holy Mountain for the first time I watched it again twice more within two days. I need to get on those other films because I already consider Holy Mountain to be one of the best things I've ever seen.

Dune for 20h? Im in! But it would need to be watched in special conditions like in watertank or better supsended in air so that body pain does not interupt the performance.

[@jaylenisababy6992]

I had the same reactions as Robot's but talking about a 14hr Dune movie by jodorowsky, now that's something to be seen.

[@thebendu33]

Comicbook girl is so interesting. She makes excellent video, well presented, super smart. And after all that she crazy good looking.

[@ernestsauter8093]

There appears to be some synchronicity going on. A few days ago, while tripping through a bunch of trailers, I ran across one for Fando y Lis (I believe this was his first movie) and last night watched Santa Sangre for the first time. Then today, you reposted this. Hmmm...😏

[@edhoover42]

CBG19, Talking about Alchemy (kin of Magic), have you ever heard of Isaac Bonewits? He's the only person who may be the only person known to have ever received any kind of academic degree in Magic from an accredited university (UC Berkeley), and said that if magic exists, it is most likely based on subconscious psychic powers and that magic spells only work because of the belief the practitioner manipulated psychologically by the spell (paraphrasing)

[@PlanetarPL]

Also I wants his Dune Script Book to be digitalized or at least made into anime.

[@tximinoman]

I know the guy's pretty insane (and I don't doubt he could have potentially made a 14 hour movie) but the whole "Dune was going to be 14 hours" seems, after I watched the documentary, to be an overexageration and a joke. When he talks about it he was talking about how the producers were trying to control his creative freedom, so he said something like "well then it's going to be 14 hours" (it's better explained in the documentary). I don't think that quote needs to be taken literally but rather as Jodorowsky trying to tell his producer he was going to do whatever the fuck he wanted no matter what (which in the end is kind of why he lost that gig). I don't know, at least that's what I took from the Documentary, that his dune movie was going to be long, sure, but not as absurdly long as 14 hours.

[@davidaaronartist]

i agree

[@leeross3950]

Loved the Metabarons

[@blunttrauma5300]

Excellent video, throughly enjoyed it. Although I think fewer "greater creators" transitions would make the video much smoother

[@TheNewsDepot]

Today film studios would leap at a 14 hour story. That's 7 movie releases they could make billions from.

He's a filmmaker, an actor, an author, a comic book creator, a poet, a musician, a philosopher, a puppeteer, a mime, a psychologist and psychoanalyst, a draughtsman, a painter, a sculptor, a spiritual guru, a tarologist, a heart-surgeon, a chef, an engineer, a mechanic, a car salesman, a zookeeper, a laser scientist and a rocket scientist.

Fantastic, are you finally bringing the complete series to KZbin?

[@matthewmohri9990]

Hey could you possibly ever cover the 90's RP Game Vampire The Masquerade? The game was/is still great b/c it's one of the few RP games that forces everyone of its players to delve into their own deepest unconscious parts of themselves and bring it to light. If The GM is good and understand the more cerebral and psychological side of the game, each player(depending how long and committed to the game they are)will learn aspects of themselves they never knew existed. Mark Rheinhagen created something amazing when he created White Wolf's World of Darkness Vampire The Masquerade.
