Watched this for the first time, it was a brilliant story with gorgeous worldbuilding and puppets
Are there any other films that are are pleasing to the eye like The Dark Crystal is?

OP here, great choice
I watched this when I was a little kid
I felt heartbroken when the horse died

the labyrinth with David Bowie
another great movie but more of a comedy compared to epic that is Dark Crystal
There's abookcalled Brog the Stoop that reminds me of this movie.

sadly I can´t offer any more movies like this but people that loved the world of the dark crystal should and want to see more like this should check out the game series called Xeno Clash or the book series the edge world chronicles or the book The City of the Sleeping Books

Haven't read a book in ages
Maybe I should read something, Kek

you definetly should anon. reading is fun.
edge world chronicles and the city of the dreaming books both come with beautiful illustrations which look like unused concept art for the dark crystal.
they are also easy reads.
if I had to chose one I would start with the city of the dreaming books. as a child it used to be my favorite book

btw they are making a dark crystal prequel netflix show. let´s cross our fingers that it will be good

Are they making it with puppets and real set pieces? Or will it be cgi?
>>87168177
as far as I know real puppets
they got the Henson Company to do it

Legend is also from the same breed of movies

Labyrinth is also by Jim Henson and Brian Froud and has a really similar visual aesthetic. It's more comedic than The Dark Crystal but still well worth watching.
