He wanted to do a puppet version of Lord of the Rings, but inability to get the rights aside, he concluded it was too damn big to do as one movie, so he decided to make up his own high fantasy setting.

The threads for the show were so fun. Very unfortunate because I think most people can watch it and see it wasn't continuing if it wasn't getting a shitload of viewers which it had no chance. Basically movie quality but split into a whole season.
>>
>>215582250
I didn't like that the Gelflings were like "The Skeksis treat us great we owe them so much!" but never show what they actually do for them if anything.

I was considering rewatching it just a few hours ago. I have to skip the parts with the pus leaking skeksi. I threw up when they leaked pus in their food and didn't notice and ate it.

was never any real chance of that happening, with the amount of money they spent on it and only about four people watching it, it would have to be someone like bezos at amazon loved it and would have been fine losing money to finish it like when the expanse got cancelled, no other proper networks would ever pick it up.

... that was the point. The Gelfling were all brainwashed for generations into thinking the Skeksis were good to them, without ever actually questioning what they supposedly did.

It's supposed to make you question those same cases in your own life, where (if you're American) you get repeatedly told a certain hostile country is your "greatest ally", or (if you're from a kingdom) you get repeatedly told having royalty is a good thing.

>>215584434
I mean none of them got attacked by wild animals and we know that there's a lot of dangerous ones in Thra

>>215587214
It was an attempt to baby the viewer and give some internal narration.
There are weird bootleg, spliced videos you can find online of the movie's original intent:
Every species was to speak a different language.
This was why Ogra speaks so weird when she asks Jen if he is a gelfling - she was speaking a foreign language.
This also made Kira's power of being able to speak all languages so much more potent.

this is all beside the point, which is in that scene you reference - there originaly was no voice over at all. Jen just pauses to stare at this vast overworld, and hesitate, then steel his resolve and move forward.
But I guess they didnt think it got the point across, so they added it in Blade Runner style.

Dinosaurs is also Henson kino but doesn’t compare to dark crystal.
