- DirectorJim HensonFrank OzStarsJim HensonKathryn MullenFrank OzOn another planet in the distant past, a Gelfling embarks on a quest to find the missing shard of a magical crystal, and to restore order to his world.9/10
My favorite movie of all time.
Brief Plot:
A World of wonder is starting to fall apart as the dark crystal is cracked in two and needs to be put together before the three suns align after 1000 years. The two races
What makes the film stand out from the norm is the fact that both the skeksis and the mystics were once as one, all powerful beings of great wisdom and benevolence. This is an obvious yet stunningly powerful metaphor for the eternal battle between good and evil in the human conscience. The immense evil of the skeksis is so brilliantly portrayed that it affects the viewer in an unforgettable way.
Likes:
1. No CGI or Humans: This Movie is all animatronix and puppeteering.

Dislikes:
1. Slowness: Some parts are a drag.
2. Rushing: Some parts are rushed through and not carefully examined.
3. Predictablity: Some things are too predictable.
4. Sense: Some things did not make sense like when Jen was told by masters that he was supposed to be warned a long time ago that this would happen and he wasnt told, it just doesnt make sense why he wasnt told.
5. Stiffness: The puppets seem a bit stiff when walking, i thought it made it look less real. - StarsJim HensonBrian FroudWendy MidenerA behind the scenes look at Jim Henson's "The Dark Crystal".havnt watched yet!
