Dark Crystal:. Ep 1 impressions, Ep1 only spoilers

I don't remember all the details of the OG but this seems to lay out the premise very well, maybe better than the original.
The beginning looked CG then went to puppets? I'm guessing it's a mix. Looks cool.
Like how they laid out the story and how it went straight dark at the end of the episode.

I’m watching now. About 15 minutes in. Impressed so far.

Holy shite. I thought everything was CGI in this one. I saw a behind the scenes and each one is a puppet. My body is ready.

frick no, this is straight up puppets for 10 episodes

Since spoilers, I’m not going to read this thread for awhile.

First episode was fantastic. There was a couple of instances where some CGI made it look like a video game, but it’s mostly practical effects and puppets and it is glorious!

Only episode 1 impressions and spoilers.
Some one should do for carnival row, get some previews and opinions on Ep1 only.

I’m dark crystal then I’ll do carnival row.
Reviews are mixed but honestly, doesn’t sound like I’d have an issue with the stuff complained about.

Holy shite. This might be one of the most interesting Netflix series yet.
Kind of stunning to look at, and while I love The movie, they've taken the concept and blown it up big time. I'm impressed 3 episodes in.

First episode is a little weak. Not bad. It gets it’s much better and way way more epic, the ending of episode 7 man. Unreal

Rabid Dark Crystal fan here. Pretty much that movie, The Secret of Nimh, and The Never Ending Story defined my childhood.
I'm assuming I should watch this?

I think you should. Finally, some of the comedy, especially early on, seems aimed more at children. And there’s some intentionally awkward/funny muppet work. But probably the best show I’ve seen in long time. It’s fun.
And it definitely gives you a ton on the Dark Crystal universe. Like if you wanted to know more about skeksis, you’ll learn more here.
I do think some of the skeksis stuff is a little overindulgent. There’s some gross out humor and just general wallowing with how despicsble skeksis are but that’s fine.
Also, finally. Like there’s some dark shite in here.

I really wish they would have made the mouths move more with the gelflings. I understand legacy blah blah but it's really hard to get emotion out of them and care.
Posted on 9/3/19 at 8:44 am to StickD
I'm on episode 7 and its so good. I didn't think it was gonna be as dark as it is, but these damn Skeksis are awful! Just let the Gelfling live! Also Mark Hamill as the Scientist is peak Mark Hamill.
