So apparently we're finally getting that Dark Crystal Prequel in the form of a Netflix series
And it looks like they're actually using puppets instead of relying on CGI.
Dark Crystal thread?
>>82934857
I was fucking PISSED when I first heard about this, but it looks like production will take awhile because they're handling things with practical effects and puppetry. I'm genuinely excited for this, but prepared for it to have that eeire netflix soullnessness
>>82934949
I wonder if our main characters will be a group of Gelflings that dwindle in number as it goes on
>>82934857
>netflix
>age of resistance
Main villain will be Drumpf inspired
Dark Crystal was a boring movie. I appreciate the effort that was put into making it but it's slow and boring.
>>82935509
I thought it was paced pretty well
>>82934857
Holy fucking shit Netflix will do ANYTHING for a buck. Well, at least I'll finally get that Willow sequel I always wanted.
>>82934857
Watched the original last night, its still great hasnt aged a bit
>>82934857
what is this nightmare fuel and why is it getting a reboot
>>82935509

Glorious!
>>82935859
I agree, it was actually better when I rewatched it
>>82935726
Henson company has been wanting to do this for years
>>82935726
There is already a sequel trilogy. They are books. But they aren't horrible.
>>82936293
Do they occur after the events of the movie?
Do Jen and Kira fuck and repopulate the world with Gelflings?
Personally, I can't wait to see the new Rule34 content.
>>82936849
of what
>>82936940
gelfling succ puppets
>>82934857
Dark Crystal is a dated shitty wanna-be Star Wars ripoff with no story or plot that is held up by nostalgic man-childreb
>>82937226
Oh look, it's this shitposter again. At least come up with new material.
>>82936940

>>82938409
thats the Labyrinth dumbass
>>82935888
it's a prequel
>>82938409
Bernie Sanders!
>>82935859
the FX of the new creatures at the end looks really bad, really it just needs to be re-composited if they can find the original elements
>>82934857
i'm hoping that last shot of the skesis isn't what the show is going to look like, it has no atmosphere, bad studio overhead lighting and looks like its shot on bad digital video.
not to mention the mold seam along the back armor.
Why has Henson studios had such a hard time finding funding for its projects over the years?
>>82937226
I dont get what you mean
>>82940562
It's till in early stages. It will look better come fall. Imagine if they used cgi. That would destroy this board.
>>82934857
also it's weird that they didn't mention Brian Froud at all and made it seem like Jim did all the drawings
>>82940562
>Why has Henson studios had such a hard time finding funding for its projects over the years?
Probably because they've been making kiddy shows for the last 10 years
>>82940630
The CGI will certainly be in it, and I personally wouldnt mind it as long as its stuck to stuff like lightning and magic instead of characters
>>82940630
i don't think it will look better. It will probably look just like that last shot and also like the mini video pieces they did for their reality show a few years back. Don't get me wrong, i want more DC so much but would it kill them to use a smoke machine and a film filter for the video with some moody lighting because right now its coming off as fan film tier.
>>82940707
I meant for characters. All in all, yeah, it needs some work, I mean, have you that trailer for We R Animals? The puppetry is amazing.
>>82940768
On a side note, Wtf is up with the skesis's eye. Weird.
if this does well, it basically guarantees a Labyrinth revisit too
Fuck I love Dark Crystal
Hopefully going back and explaining more the the universe and it's rules won't make it less weird and interesting
>>82940948
Without David Bowie? Why?
>>82935888
underage b&
>>82940984
Why are they making a Han Solo movie without Harrison Ford?
>>82941022
Okay. I see your point.
Will this be completely new or have anything to do with the comics and manga or what?
>>82941287
There was a manga?
>>82941397
That looks either really awesome or really stupid.
>Coming soon
Nigga they're starting shooting in November and the puppets take ages to film with. Not to mention 10 eps worth of material
We'll be lucky if it comes out september 2018
Will The the crystal bats fly?
>>82934857
ok I might get netflix know
I loved Dark Crystal
>>82941425
Everything Dark Crystal is both really awesome and really stupid
Doesn't stop it from being awesome
>>82934857
First The Witcher, and now this, Netflix is gonna destroy everything you love.
>>82941545
Netflix does what Hollywon't
>>82935726
>Well, at least I'll finally get that Willow sequel I always wanted.
Would Warwick Davis do it?
HMMMMMMMMM
>>82934857
>HMMMMMMMs your path
>>82941681
Did they just announce this after watching the Odd1sout's video?
remember when the Skeksis were on Farscape
man i miss Farscape
why can't Netflix bring it back too
>>82941759
They announced a movie a few years back, but nothing is said since.
>mfw they make the new gelfling male hero black and the female gelfling romantic interest remains blond
>>82934857
I honestly think The Dark Crystal's universe would be a great setting to a soulslike game.
I also still want to see Henson's original vision for it. The original one of the best looking films I've ever watched, Henson's cut would've been trippy as fuck. Also, this was always better than Labyrinth. Labyrinthfags will deny this.

This was in development for years. Even Genndy Tartovkosky was gonna direct at one point
>>82942112
>A Genndy Dark Crystal series
WHY THE FUCK IS NETFLIX RETARDED THIS COULD'VE HAPPENED REEEEEE
>>82934857
Is nothing sacred to Netflix?
>>82942214
I mean, as long as they nail the feel and still use animatronics (Which has been confirmed) I think we'll be fine.
>>82941818
if anything the boy will make fake wings and say that he is a girl now
>>82941818
There's no humans in this so you neckbeards cant possibly bitch about racemixing
>>82942112
no that was the sequel movie, and the funding fell through
>>82942258
Remember, Disney tried to make CG equal to the nightmare before Christmas. TDC is in decent hands.
>>82942317
Really?
>>82941730
who the hell is Odd1sout's?
>>82942635
Yep. It was made into a video game.
>>82942728
Guy who made a video about TDC a few weeks ago.
>>82941911
There's a director's cut floating around with the missing scenes assembled from workprints. If you're curious it's well worth the watch. If only we could get the real thing.
The list of marginally interesting hit films that have not been rebooted diminishes by one.
Space Odyssey reboot coming any day now.
