Harrison Ford and Ke Huy Quan (Short Round) in Temple of Dune. I want a little boy as an action hero while Harrison Ford provides occasional support.

And this misadventure takes place on arrakis?

Interesting. Sub in a Harkkonen for the mad priest with a taste for organ-harvesting cruelty. A nightclub singer in the role of a Bene Gesserit witch who is there for no obvious reason. (Plans within plans?) The Fremen are the little slaves toiling to extract resources/spice.

In the end, Short Round liberates the oppressed masses and greenery returns to the parched lands. In accordance with prophecy.

It could work.

You may be looking for the Goonies. Conveniently, same actor.

(And I still stand by "pincers of power" although I know it's wrong).

You want a live action Jonny Quest...

Why hasn't THAT happened yet?
