Tried watching a bit of Dark Crystal (didn’t know it was based on a Jim Henson thing) but I don’t think I can do this anymore. I can tell a lot of TLC has gone into this, but this LOTRish formula about vaguely elvish and vaguely orcish things warring over McGuffins needs to die.

I’ll admit I’ve never really liked fantasy much. It’s just so endlessly recycled in terms of archetypes, plot mechanics, and even surface world building (there’s only so many ways to do a Sword of Power). SF at least seems to evolve in fits and starts and get new gadgetry.

My favorite part was when he stabbed the crystal with another crystal and it healed the crystal.

That and the puppet thing seems needlessly nostalgic.

The script is terrible. It's like really bad fanfic

i think it's supposed to be nostalgia bait for the original with juiced-up cg for the dopamine addicts

I was not in the US until 1997
It’s more American GenX than global

I’m literally only watching it for the practical effects.
