woah, really? it's kind of old, it came out in 1982, but it's pretty sweet. i haven't seen anything like it since.

if you like 'world building' and can handle a story aimed at kids, you'll probably dig it.

Seems either a prequel or reboot, both of which are unnecessary.
Either it's all about gelfling genocide, which can get old fast, or it's not and everyone wonders why.

I liked it. Thought the whole "wings out of nowhere" thing was one of the more stupid parts of the movide though.

They had the male gelfings, who looks like Mick Jagger
The female who looks like miss piggy
And that fat magic woman that helps them who looks like a predator(helmet off).

So, Dark Crystal: Rogue One, apparently.

I will say this... if Netflix goes full on practical puppets then I'll be blown away. I'll resub for an entire year just for the effort.


it's being produced by Henson's company. i almost guarantee it will use puppets and a minimal amount of CGI, if any at all.
