Gotta respect that the Chamberlain chose Trial By Stone. He was willing to try and make it a contest of strength, fully confident he would win.

5:06 You can see a second set of hands behind the Chamberlain's back, an early but subtle hint to the Skeksi's connection to the four-armed Mystics

0:18. It makes sense these three would form an alliance, since if you know the lore and their titles, they technically all work together. Skektek makes the Garthim, SkekUng commands them, and brings their captured prisoners to SkekNa to be used as slaves.

If there is one thing that angers me more to the fact we won't have a Dark Crystal Age of Resistance S2 is that we will never get to see the hate feud between these two develop. Left with the question if skekUng knew the truth of what really happen to skekVar in the battle of Stone-in-the-Wood which motivate his hatred for skekSil that leads to this moment.

These things gave me so many nightmares back in the day ^^;

As silly as it is, I like how it's straight to the point.

This is the world we’d be living in if that meteor hadn’t made the dinosaurs extinct. 😂

RW:before the emperor died in this film, back in the day he was a very dangerous creature from the same race

[BigMac]

1:35 Trevor Jones music is absolutely epic here

[marcnoonan]

Damn. There’s a film I haven’t thought about in more than 30 years close to 40

[Spiritstage]

By the way, I do like Jim Henson into the dark crystal

[Guile]
