Dark Crystal is amazing. Shame that puppetry has been on a steady decline. We'll never see a production like that again.
What I found even more incredible was watching the directors cut on how they made it. Truly a masterpiece in puppetry. If I remember correctly it took over at least 3 years to make.

I really believe that Jim Henson will not get the credit he deserves until we are dead and gone. He was one of the few "artists" when I was alive to see their work.

Indeed. Was going to suggest if anyone hasn't seen the documentary for Dark Crystal they really need to check it out. The amount of hard work and production that went into it is staggering.

How is it that I have never seen this? I'll have to watch ASAP.

Return to Oz used to freak me the hell out. Especially with that woman taking off her head. Really most things about that movie were really creepy.

There has to be an 80s movie badass on this board that can fairly rank these movies from top to bottom. I would take a shot at it, but I am trying to be the unbiased voice.
