The Untold Truth Of The Dark Crystal

- Jim Henson spent his life trying to prove that puppets weren’t just for children, and he even had a part in the first season of Saturday Night Live. Sadly, his “Land of Gorch” skits did not blend well with the show at all, but they did catch the attention of Brian Froud, which led to Froud and Henson creating The Dark Crystal. No one quite knew what to make of the film when it first came out, but like pretty much every Henson project, it has a devoted fan base today. The film now has a prequel series on Netflix, so let’s take a look at the untold truth of The Dark Crystal.

What do you expect for The Dark Crystal s2 on Netflix?
I'd definitely want to see what will happen to Deet. Like, is there a way she can be cured, and could she and Rian actually tie the not? And Seladon needs a redemption arc, and a chance to prove herself as All-Maudra. Or maybe she'll pass it to Brea, who's already done so much worthy of that title. But mostly, I just want season 2 to get MADE!
i expect hash, butter knives and many a potatoe chips will by eaten ,,,,=^..^=,,,,
Crazy wild shit
Looper hope season 2 Netflix.its was good story
I can't believe it isn't more popular, the series is incredible and a perfect follow up to the original. But so far no word on season 2 being greenlit. I will freaking lose my shit if they don't continue the story, this series is so underrated
A very underrated series but I hope Netflix announce a second season for it.
@A dudes thoughts Yes same here. The series was the uniquest I have ever seen
Yeah they cancelled it but they keep twerking kids cuties
Sorry
I agree with you 100 percent! The first series was so awesome I was so hoping for a second season. (Ever since the first aired it on Netflix)
The World of the Dark Crystal, is truly epic and amazing, because in part, it is one of the few fantasy worlds that is entirely 100% original. Though there are some similarities, Thra has no Orcs, Elves or Dwarves or Wizards which is SO refreshing and the world envelopes the viewers into screaming for more!
Really enjoyed de first season, solid plot, music and overall story. Truly a great property, really showing that you can do a great fantasy epic without unnecessary violence or sexuality
August 30th was one hell of a day for me being both a fan of the dark crystal and tool. Season 2 for The Dark Crystal? My body is ready!
Gee, I guess I'm not mainstream enough to _not_ dislike "The Land of Gorch!" I found it hilarious---maybe because it reminded me of me and my freewheeling gang of Hippies and drunken partiers of the '60s. I really liked the episode where Skred was involved with "crater-breathers" or whatever they were called (I don't remember---surprise, surprise). At the end of the skit, Skred wanted to see what it was all about, stuck his head into a smoking crater, then asked, "Does anyone have an Orio?" There was also an episode where the king was unknowingly sharing the queen's "favors," and Skred referred to him as "Your Cuckoldness." My only compliant about "The Dark Crystal" was the creatures who were so obviously humans in costumes with impossibly long "forelegs." Other than that, it was quite an amazing movie.
I had no idea that it wasn't originally in English!
I was so lucky to see this in the theatre as a child. My friends hated it, I knew it was a classic.
I was two when I first saw it. I guess my parents rented it when it was released, as I was too young to see it in the theaters. (I was one years old when it was released)
I LOVED it! Season 2 needs to be made SOON! 😀
Age of resistance!!! I loved it. Can’t wait for more!
I introduced my 82 mom to this movie on 2019 halloween,showed her the 8os drawings l did of fizgig and it blew her mind she loved it!! Thank you jim for being such a huge positive influence in our lives...even after your passing you still enchant and show people magic is real.R.I.P.
Absolutely LOVE this film... Bring more of the same in honor of Jim Henson!
My favorite movie ever! When I was a toddler and kid, I'd watch the movie like 4-5 times a day! Back then, I had the VHS tape, and once the credits started rolling, I'd start crying and my mom would rewind the tape so I could watch it again. 😂😂😂
Looper has the best videos and content!! 😁
Pod People!
By chance, do you mean Podlings?
I enjoyed this. It had been years since I saw the movie. I rewatched it after watching the series. It was enjoyable to watch.
Love the vids
Love this movie and love Jim Henson. Also, 2:45 what a cool lion, beautifully made.
I want to see The Untold Truth of the "Ernest" movies. There were so many of them!!! Why????
ROFLMAO
My grandparents own every single Ernest movie there's like 10 or 20 😆
@@martiantripod372c8 that's what I'm saying!! WHY????
Been a fan of Jim Henson and TDC for 34 years since i was 4 and enjoy the graphic novel prequels and have the movie on UltraHD 4K BD and the prequel series is fantastic.
Got to see the movie in 1982. Also got to see some of the characters at the Traveling Art of the Muppets at Discovery Place in Charlotte,N.C. in the mid 1980,s.
The feeling is the same is the thing I noticed and loved immediately.
So, we have a script to continue the series someday after the prequel series
"Many videogames"
>shows fan made game that isn't playable
Only 1 game exists and it's a tactic RPG for switch :/
Huge Dark Crystal fan, but I never knew that Gorch connected Henson to Froud!
I’m hoping to see the Garthim Wars, SkekUng and Deet’s return in s2...
I love The Dark Crystal!
And it still terrifies children to this day.
Gary Kurtz was at odds with Lucas so he got kicked off of Empire, a property which from it's beginning had a crystal of immense power (the Kaibur, which had a relative in Splinter of the Mind's Eye and finally appeared in Rogue One).
I love this stuff
Someone answer me this, which of the Gelfling clans did Jen and Kira presumably come from? I would think Jen was a Stonewood originally and Kira was a Vapran but could I be wrong?
I was thinking the same thing
thank you
The Power of the Dark Crystal
Exists in comic form.
The truth....is what I expect!
Wait I thought this video was late for season 1?!?!?.... is this because season 2 is coming soon????????
pls bring back the dark crystal asap
I'm not a fan of the movie. I rewatched it a couple of years back and eh, whatever. Took till last week for me to be bothered watching the series and I have to say. Wow! What a great show it turned out to be. The sheer amount of effort and obvious love that went into making it was incredibly obvious. The enthusiasm pratically slaps the audience in the face. The thing I was most impressed with was the world building and the little things that made the world feel truly alive. I can't get over the sheer creativity it took.
What a wonderful outcome and, though it must have been very expensive, I hope there's a second season. I'm surprised by how attached I became to the characters and I really need to know what happens to Deet.
Now I want to listen to the original language version.
I want to see The Dark Crystal.
*What in thra is going on!!!*
What was the "untold" truth? :D
"many graphic novels, books and video games"... One of each. And partly only in Japan.
How about a untold truth about looper?
Just here cause of the odds1out
Zeus!
I always wondered why I felt like I could understand podding. I could’ve sworn I heard Russian words!
I would watch the dark crystal
YOU ARE THE RESISTANCE
oops wrong movie 😂
YHWY!!!
Who would have later on become a primatologist hunting bigfoot with infra red goggles
The problem with age of resistance is I've seen the film... So I know the gelflings lose. Also it creates some strange continuity errors around the urskeks (now aliens) arrival the skeksi-mystics split and the crystal cracking timelines which really annoyed me.
The thing was, in both the book I own and the movie I've seen, is that the UrSkeks weren't from Thra originally to begin with. Plus, they did a 'beam-me-up-Scotty' after healing Kira and leaving the now, Castle of Light in the care of the Gelflings, so what was told in the series makes sense. However, I agree with you that it's hard because we know the Gelflings in this timespace lose, but it reveals HOW they had lost, and what happened to a once thriving civilization filled with music, art, writing and culture! The UrSkeks made the mistake of tricking Augra to use the Crystal for themselves as a way to extinguish their Dark Halves, and split themselves. Instead of trying to get rid of their darkness, they should've learned to live with it! There can't be one without the other; we have seen what happened!
2:10 NOT Eastern European languages. Slavic languages. There are non slavic Eastern European languages.
Every once in a while you capture lightning in a bottle. Trying to relive or expand the idea doesn't work. Case in point: Casablanca
All efforts to make a sequel or TV series fell flat.
Sound of Music-THANK GOD no one tried to remake or do a TV series on this.
And so The Dark Crystal is this amazing one of a kind film. I didn't want to be disappointed, so I didn't watch the TV series.
In that same respect, let me mention the whole Lord of the Rings/Hobbit mess. In the late 1970's there were these two amazing animated features by Rankin Bass productions. The Hobbit was excellently done. Rankin Bass remembered that this was a kid's story, but there was gregorian chanting, iambic pentameter and amazing voice talent. Two years later the entire LOTR trilogy done in 2 hours (labeled The Return of the King) it also had gregorian chanting, iambic pentameter, and amazing voice talent.
Enter Peter Jackson
The live action films, for me, were terrible. The most disappointing scene was where Eowyn kills the Lord of the Nazgul. When a cartoon has better acting, better dialogue and tells the story better-you have to ask yourself:"Why in God's name did Peter Jackson get away with this crime?"
How nice, a dark crystal story. Once perpetuated, it lost the origin meaning of part of history.
You didn’t tell the untold truth tho?
I could never get into this series. Not when the Dark Crystal movie came out in the 80's and not with this new series. I just lose immersion whenever I see very obvious puppets bobbing their heads up and down in an over-exaggerated fashion.
Have you ever watch the movie?
I tried to back in the 80's but something about the puppets' movements just didn't sit well with me. I watched and loved The Dragon Slayer, Conan the Barbarian, Excalibur, and Willow(well I liked it, not loved it) but as much as I wanted to get into The Dark Crystal I couldn't watch it for more than 10 or 15 minutes. I tried watching the new series too but same thing, 15 minutes and I was done.
Having a puppet here and there doesn't bother me but an entire show featuring just puppets? Can't do it. Just my hang up I guess.
Very interesting to read this. I find myself completely immersed and in love with this series largely because of the extensive use of puppets
@@jtno2 I'd urge you to give it another try. Get to the end of the first episode and then decide. I also found the first few minutes a bit weird - there's a lot of audio narration and it feels SO 80s, but I promise you you forget you're watching puppets and just get immersed in the incredible story. The show is a VAST improvement on the movie. I know there's a lot of TV out there and it can be easy to lose patience with something and give up quite quickly - but this is possibly the best show I've ever seen and worth a second try.
Not everyone's cup of tea, however, I still prefer Henson's puppetry and animatronic's to much of the cgi in films today.
It's a shame that WOAK culture ruined the new Dark Crystal series... T_T
At least spell the guy's name right. Tartakovsky.
Aleksandar Radojcic no
@@notserious6458 No what?
The Netflix puppets are much too plastic looking. They should have used some other kind of molding compound or at the very least given them some powdery type of makeup to get rid of that shinny plastic look ☹️
Bullshit on this being "untold"!
