No wonder they went extinct. Even podlings had more sense.

Not like they had many other options.

Mabel literally unleashed the apocalypse

Probably not, Skektek was already in a I’ll show them I can fight mode so most likely he would have killed them anyway possibly not as gruesomely though

She was at a low point and was manipulated by Bill, Seladon was a fucking cunt who saw everything going on and was like ok I’ll let my people die to keep order

Could a human defeat skeksis 1on1?
Judging by the way the walk and look I think human can actually beat them?
Except for a hunter. I don't understand why would he be so agile and strong fighting bad ass machine. He looks so different compared to the rest of the characters

It's easy bait

The other skeksis are puppets with puppeteers crouching underneath. SkekMal is a dude in a suit with an animatronic mask I believe.

If it was was a Gruenak Skektek would get nothing but net

I imagine a group of heavily armed humans could absolutely decimate the Skeksis easily but I’m not too sure about the Garthim

Not to justify her actions, but Seladon had a whole lot of shit going on in her life that factored into her actions. For one, she fully and completely drank the Skeksis' kool aid that they were truly benevolent and all-wise with Thra's best interests at here. That was basically the prevailing mentality all across Thra all things considered because the possibility all that was a lie was too heretical to most people. Adding on to that, she grew up in royalty with riches, both of which the Skeksis provided. They were responsible for a large part of how great her life was, so that factored into the devotion even more. Top it all off with a heaping dose of mommy issues and sense of abandonment and inferiority compared to her sisters (Despite doing all she could by the books and obeying unwaveringly) and you got yourself a whole lot of trouble.
I firmly believe a lot of people in her situation would act more similarly than they'd like to admit.

Attached: Dont_trust_them_new_Gelflings_over_there.jpg (1000x515, 301K)

I bet they all originally looked more like skekMal, Aughra strongly suggests they weren't always the lazy, spindly, shriveled-yet-bloated pudgelumps she's so disgusted by.

All this makes me want a series with the Skeksis in their peak early days literally conquering Thra for the hell of it and slowly establishing their empire

You would need the largest, most able bodies humans on earth to fight the Garthim and even then you might lose. The Garthim don't tire. Don't get bored. They can't be bought off. They're essentially crab Terminators.

We need only our strongest lifters, human seller.

>I’m not too sure about the Garthim
I'm not sure anything short of an anti-tank rocket would stop a Garthim, contrary to that one ambiguously-canon comic. At least not the hollow-shell golems from the film. Even an assault rifle would have issues, I think - it'd be like the suits of armour from Bedknobs and Broomsticks. Sure, you might riddle it with holes, but it's still walking towards you, leaking lead slugs as it goes.

Ending with skekGra's vision, remorse, and reunion with urGoh.

Yes! Now that would make a good comic.

I aquiesce to that.
Skektek should go for 2-pointers.

Or Baseball.

Garthim are zerg melee fighters. Any flame thrower or high RPM fire device would work. Hell a few apaches with miniguns would wipe out legions of them. Starship trooper rules, just dont letem get close.

That assumes the apparently biological, blue eyed ones from the end of season 1.

Not really sure what's going on there, compared to the empty purple-eyed constructs from the film. I'm going to assume for now they get enhanced with the Darkening and go full golem.

Why do the Podling slaves in the movie look like zombies? And it's kind of jarring how simplistic the movie is compared to the series. The Skekses barely feel like the same characters; only the Chamberlain behaves recognizably.

That sounds like...an inordinate amount of resources. Obviously if humans had stable supply lines and full military tech they'd turn Thra into a McDonald's Parking lot.

Put us in weird magi-tech land or transpose us Isekai style and we're just huge tool-using Sasquatch.

>Aughra is exactly the same and even sounds the same
Hahahaha wow

Well its not like we havent taken on physically superior prey that outnumber us through the use of tools and tactics.

1v1 without weapons id put 70/30 on the Garthim winning. But from there it all depends on the engagement. A human village would get overrun by sheer number but in the forest or hostile terrain, with prepared humans with basic tools?

The survivng Garthim would tell the Skeksis everything was going well until the trees starting speaking vietnamese.

She's the most spot-on of all the VAs.

Just calculating the hunch. If they weren't bent they would tower over us.

What we have is weight for our height and speed for our size.

Only the Hunter and SkekUng would be able to match us and still that's in the Age of Resistance.

Movie Skeksis are probably downright frail. Except Skekung. Who has "Old Man muscle" from being a hard cunt.

That made no sense, why didn't they do whatever the Skeksis were afraid of with their mouths when 1 was freed? You'd think they would have fought better in general, and yet we're supposed to take the things made from them more seriously.

Hup and Seladon should hatefuck each other

Would they spoon?

They should have been more patient.

So guys, I want you to rate the Skeks, who are your favorties?

They sew their mouths so they couldn´t talk to the other people about the pratices in the laboratory - at that point everybody knew so it was meanless.

>You'd think they would have fought better in general,

They are noted for being strong for their size, but Snektek is still at least 2 times taller than them. I am actualy surprised by how they managed to hold themselves for some time. I both continued to fight together they might have bested him.

I love this artist's take on their youthful appearance.

Hard to choose favourites. I'd have to say... skekTek, skekSil, skekSo, skekOk and skekGra, not necessarily in that order.

Same. I think their flesh versions will be too vulnerable or just flat decay since they're running on Crystal energy like the skeksis and that has been shown to be unsustainable for flesh and blood

Minor conjunction where two of the Suns aligned which allows some new energy from them directed through the Crystal to be absorbed. But as the narrator notes, they're (or at least the Emperor) too too far gone for even that to help them much

Consider the following: GOT characters in Thra.

Things would probably get horrific very quickly, not just because of the morality of some of the human characters, but because if you allow the magical creatures of GOT loose on Thra it would be like an invasive species. The White Walkers have no Wall keeping them in anywhere on Thra. The Children may help the Gelflings, but they're very few in number. I think even GOT level technology could take on any army Thra could muster.

You know that Skeks would just wait the first oportunity that they had guns and machinery to turn against humans and slave them too.

Fuck, it could really be that easy.

Any human evil enough to otherwise get along with them would probably want to kill them over not being human. any who aren't would be appalled by their behavior.

I´m starting to think that this imaginary scenario is entirely dumb and non sense. There are no rules, no methods for how this is even possible, or how many resources humans have.

It´s a pretty dumb topic that can be anything that the poster wants.

>hoomans ebil!!
do you ever think that maybe what you say about others in generalizations could be just a reflection of yourself? it boggles my mind that people confuse the ability to grant meaning to intrinsically meaningless things (the only absolutely human trait, btw) with the idea that because we can identify evil (soooo easily in others) that we must as a whole be evil. it doesn't help that this opinion, especially prominent in literature, is a lazy trope. when humans are evil, there's still a hero, and if it is a non-human hero then it is only the skin over a good human's values and motives.

the idea that you can attribute something a human created based on their human experiences (the 'good' gelfs) as somehow distanced from humans inserted within the setting is so confusing to me that i have to assume that you yourself are the evil manipulative highly aggressive sociopath, ready to violate gelflings.

and i mean even if you are, that doesn't make you fucking evil you numbskull. actions are evil. fantasy is a fantasy. the moment you go rape a gelfling lets have a talk about evil. until then drop the anti-human rhetoric or just off yourself if you can't have a laugh and enjoy something. if you're a troll, good job you got me.

So podlings with humans. Youd just get Homo Florensis if the breeding worked out. Decreased size strength intellect across the board. Same with everyone. SkekLings would be little vicious ankle biters and PodGelfs are just Hups.

What gets interesting is that if you consider the Podling the immature form of its species, a Nymph so to speak then its gets interesting. What would a mature Podling look like, how large do they get. A lot of Thra's biology appears to be little.swarmlings of immature species that grow without dying of old age but everything is in a state of constant predation.

Say you took Podlings away from their natural habitat and fed them enough food, I would suspect they would enter a second puberty, retreat underground and become larger, stronger, smarter and more robust versions. Alpha Pods may continue to grow larger given enough time, space and food. They would also have to become predatory. Hup, i suspect, was able to reach this state of maturation and his "quest" was a drive to seek out a new area to mature in.

It is with these alphas that youd crossbreed in other species. Which give you essentially dwarven variants of the other Species.

Many seem to believe the present Garthim, which have been noted as having blue eyes rather than the purple we see in the movie, will be failed prototypes perhaps by virtue of being organic and the next generation will be more like the hollow golems we know from Jen and Kira's time. That way they can be made from whatever material

Imagine though Punished Deet. Raising you to be strong and merciless. Punishing you viciously when you disappoint her and molding you into her perfect little war machine lover.

I don't think anything outside of Thra is so fucking naive that they would trust the Skeksis enough to do anything with or see them as reasonable at all.

Considering skekUng's Mystic counterpart is called the Healer, what do you think his original role is going to be? Given his role in leading the Garthim and him being described as a "co-creator" alongside skekTek, maybe something like the Surgeon? From the looks of it however he also seems fond of joining his frankencrab monsters in fighting though, and seems to be one of the larger and stronger Skeksis.

She spent the whole time watching human men on earth, wishing the spirit of Terra would show up and give her biosphere a thorough ravaging.

Honestly was thinking about all the Anons here and their perverse lust for gelflings, also when it comes to similarities to Skeksis, we’d have the size thing going on, The skeksis sure as heck would try to keep humans on their good side, probably hiding some more abhorrent tendencies from us. That is if we didn’t shoot first and anwser questions later. That is if Skeksis didn’t do the same. Humans could certainly be considered useful idiots at worst and worthy followers at best so that could also be a problem. But still

We're the reason she has that perpetual frown.

Oh, I'd be probing Gelfling anuses alright.

Podlings just dont make sense otherwise. What is thier niche in Thra. Theyre sentient and have societies but so do the Gelfling. Theyre small and easily predated on, but Thra has.things like Fizzgigs and other prey species.

We know in the Podling base form they live for a very long time. The Podling in Aughras house was the 3rd descendant over hundreds of Trine.

Id suggest the Podlings are like the Cuckoo Bird in that it sends out its progeny to be rasied by the Gelfling to protect them from predators and give them.the best shot at hitting maturation, like Hup who is very different than other podlings.

she's watching you masturbate to deet

I keep forgetting skekUng isn't the dead General from the series. They're exactly the same character. And it's weird to think he could be credited as co-creator of the Garthim, considering he flat-out wasn't there when they were created.

The Garthim we see at the end of AoR doesn't seem quite the same as the purple eyed crab golems of the film. It could be possible he helped refine the process by reducing the exposed meaty parts, pioneered the tactics in using them, or he simply bullied skekTek and stole the credit. Plus to be fair he is less of an asshole than skekVar, or at least less stupid.

The weird meta stuff surrounding Aughra and the spirit of Thra is pretty cool in general. Wasn't her burnt out eye meant to contain the "masculine" ideals of the world, which were eventually embodied in Raunip after she stared into the suns?

A lot of life on Thra is worm like, invertebrate. I think theyd grow into massive burrowing things. Hell the little rolly pollys that drive the Skeksis chariot could be Alpha podlings or maybe theyre a related species of Podling and Alpha Podlings are giant burrowing worm things.

Podlings do really love playing in the dirt. Maybe they become Scantuary Trees.

Raunip's eye had the ability to see flashes of things as they really were, though shorn of nuance and context. Half of him came from another world and was combined with material from Thra to make his final form (effectively, via Aughra and a meteor, Thra mated with another world and had a child).

Seeing as the UrSkeks are entwined with the crystal and the Crystal is the source of all life and there are other crystals on other planets you could consider the crystal a "seeding device" created by the Elder Race the UrSkeks were rejected from and spread world to world.

Their niche is potato-brained gardeners.

Myths indicates some other planets have Crystals too, but nothing precisely confirms every world does

A single human with a gun could decimate the Skeksis. The only reason they're even vaguely a threat to the Gelfling is because they're 2-3 times they're size. The Garthim aren't unstoppable either - they're basically zombies in plate armor, you can't shoot or stab them to death, but there's nothing stopping you from running one over in a tank or crushing one in a compactor.

According to World of the Dark Crystal, they're all the same Crystal, just 3-dimensional facets of a complex higher-dimensional entity that exists "outside space". Only on Thra is the crystal energised by three suns, though, which is why the urSkeks chose it for their exile/punishment/experiment.

Earth is mentioned as existing, but it's not made clear whether it has a crystal or not.

>tfw Skeksil is just another Septarian from from SVTFO

What annoys me with this series is it was implied with the movie that the UrSkeks weren't supposed to be full-on ass-holes. It was that they were KIND OF that way and what they did was more of a fuck-up than series of what anyone would recognize as shitty behavior. It didn't seem like they were the kinds to immediately bull-shit a Gaia's Mini-Me into leaving and start off draining and doing more selfish and reckless things with the crystal. I consider it bad continuity that they were refered to as the Skeksis from the beginning and that Aughra didn't notice a real change.

It's explained more in-line with the movie and comics as the series goes on; the stuff in the first episode is kind of a red herring/simplification.

Their initial goal as urSkeks after giving Aughra the orrery (originally to help her make predictions) was to use the next Great Conjunction to burn away their darker parts and purify themselves so that they could return home. After that went wrong and they split, the Skeksis used their gifts of silver tongues to encourage Aughra to go a-wandering while they watched over the crystal, promising her it would be safe in their hands. Then they started draining it...

Not really, at least in the most specific sense
Septarians are latent high tier regenerators, whereas the skeksis can only rejuvenate with a supply of crystal energy or the essence of other creatures

The rest, I can't even guess how you think they're similar

What if the UrSkeks come to Earth and watch The Dark Crystal on Netflix

Apparently its because Raunip trolled that one Urskek that was upset about his homeworlds music so hard he had too epic a gamer moment and the crystal split them

But would you willingly hurt a sentient docile peaceful slow turtlelike creature without feeling like the worlds biggest bastard? That is quite an ingenious defense mechanism

Aughra was trying to save the gelfling's souls from being drained like Kool-aid on a hot day. She doesn't actually /care/ if you live or die on Thra, only that you're allowed to return to it in time.

Also she was in the dead center of the enemy stronghold and was flying by the seat of her pants and prophecy. She could get the Gelflings out, but only at the cost of her life. Asking for the Gruenaks would have made the deal untenable.

And even then if it wasn't for the alliance with the Spiderbro's she couldn't even have managed that.

That's the comic's take on it, yes.

"World" posits that it was more a flaw in their thinking, that it was impossible to burn away their dark sides and so the process instead simply split them off into their own beings, cosmic punishment for trying to cheat the terms of their own exile.

>the only absolutely human trait, btw

Not true. We can throw shit really hard, and really accurate. That mental math you do when you visualize where you're throwing a baseball? Uniquely human.

Honestly Gelflings are for the tender hugging and shit, they are small and cute and having sex with them would only cause them pain.. and who likes having sex while the other person doesn’t enjoy it?

You'd be surprised how flexible the gelfling form is.

Plus the jogging/walking insanely long distances.

Gelfling on gelfling is just flat chested fairy porn, it becomes pedo-esque if you include humans. Though really, we don¨t know how old they are. Deet could be just a teenager.

What about shitflinging monkeys?
The ones that swing in trees and have tails, I mean.

2,5 feet tall is very small, Personally wouldn’t even try it.. Other physical contact, such as cuddling is an appealing alternative

When I poop, I subconsciously calculate how big the skidmarks are going to be on the porcelain by analyzing the food I ate in the past 48 hours, that's uniquely human too

humans are still unique in how designed we are for throwing things

Skeksis drain all of Thra, Aughra is chill
Skeksis drain one Gelfling, Aughra screams Kill

They aren’t that good at it, too short of a range to make their shitslinging abilities into a viable hunting strategy

>When he meets a baseball pitcher and realizes they throw a tiny fucking ball hard and fast enough to kill a human if it hits their bare head

cat's are flexible too, even more than gelflets by a long shot, you can't fuck a cat without killing it in the process

That begs the question, where is the line between pedo and non-pedo? A normal fairy like, say, Tinkerbell wouldn't be pedo since there's no way any human could be that small and there's adult proportions there, but as you get bigger from there it gets increasingly suspicious.

I believe that a peak chimp can throw a baseball at around 30 mph.

To put that into perspective, that is about how fast a 10-year-old child can throw a baseball. Average human is 60 mph. Pro pitchers average around 90 on a fastball, and that's not even getting into specialty throws.

Seriously, just think about the concept of a curveball. You're throwing it in such a way that it seemingly changes trajectory in mid air. Imagine explaining that to an alien who has no concept of that.

That’s absolutely correct
When it comes to diffrent species Humans are in comparision hung like horses

So the top anons in this thread can throw a baseball at 25 mph?

Horses, though to be fair they were bred specifically to surpass us in that reguard.

swamps aren't always very deep so you could wade/walk through it somewhat easily

Don't forget accuracy. Apes can fling shit in the general direction. Human children literally play games where the goal is to throw a ball over range and hit a target or a stack of bottles. The best pitchers can reliable put a ball at a specific region of a 17" strike zone from 60 feet.

I think it would go 90mph, but in reverse

Humans who do cardio can beat a horse in endurance. Not speed, endurance.
I'm gonna pull some numbers out of my cavernous asshole. Let's say a horse moves at 20ms^-1 and a human moves at 10ms^-1. The horse is twice as fast as the human, right? He'll never catch up.
Until you add in stamina. Let's also say that the horse can run for a maximum of 10 seconds before collapsing from exhaustion while the human can go for 40 seconds. The human can last four times as long as the horse thanks to evolution, baby.
Now let's calculate their distances. The horse can go a maximum distance of 200 metres before collapsing from exhaustion, unable to defend itself. The human can do 400 metres. This means that the human will still be going strong while the horse is on the ground panting and will eventually do double the horse's distance despite being half as fast.
The numbers are total bullshit, sure, but the principle behind them stands.

Just marathoned the movie and this show over a few days, really glad I think, Dark Crystal is great stuff. I thought the Scientist was pretty interesting. When I saw him in the movie, I assumed all those animals in his lab were test subjects. But in the movie, it turns out they're his pets? I found it kind of surprising that he was got upset when the Emperor tried to kill one of the creatures, since the series established the skeksis are selfish and generally don't care about others, especially a non-skeksis, suffering or dying.

Also, I was watching the making of Dark Crystal and they showed some clips of a 2016 test animation with CGI gelfling and puppet skeksis, is that available in it's entirety anywhere? The Cgi gelfling was kind of hot, they look a little too weird for me in puppet form though.

How do people generally feel about the series? Is there a lot of criticism about it from long time fans of the originals? I only watched the movie recently but I think it's a strong addition.

Also, why didn't they gelfling try to capture/kill the skeksis when they retreated in the finale? Did they figure they'd just shrivel up and die in the castle since they couldn't get any more essence? Do you guys think the series will end with some of the gelfling hiding underground or sailing away from the seas so they can return post mystic/skeksis reunification so Kira's and Jen's kids don't have to turn to inbreeding to repopular the gelfling race?

Same here. You kindof get a bit of a feeling of it from the movie but the show definitely fleshes out that the Skesis aren't actually chaotic/stupid-evil, they just have horrible personalities and extremely selfish priorities.

They're completely capable of being cordial and polite (some more than others) and are able of having long term goals and attachments to other creatures. Both Skeksil and Sketek advised for moderation and tried to warn the rest of them that they were being too greedy too fast, and Skekgar still had the exact same personality he had as a the conqueror but just with a completely different perspective from all the other Skeksis guiding his actions.

>I found it kind of surprising that he was got upset when the Emperor tried to kill one of the creatures, since the series established the skeksis are selfish and generally don't care about others, especially a non-skeksis, suffering or dying.

Think about from a different perspective. Each one wants to prove to the other how much better they are at raising/teaching the the human than the other. It'd be another triumph over the other seksis with how the human turns out under their tutelage. Also a child would be a more or less hyper loyal follower too and each one wants that.

The skeksis are beings of impulse which makes them feel foolish or simplistic. This is further compounded by the fact that they have two languages. When the Skeksis talk in short sentences with bad grammar they are speaking the Gelfling Laungage and dont give a shit. Later, alone among the other skeksis.or with Aughra they speak their natural "Ritual Langage". Same with the mystics but they care about Gelflings so they speak it better.

Just look at the Emperor's dream monologue with the General. Theyre speaking of very deep concepts and do so naturally. It also, along with the other scenes like skekteks pets reveal they arent cartoonishly evil, just complex and hindered by their own implusivness. Just look at how the Heretic speaks.

Scientist caring for his pet bird thing, also Aughra mentioning her and Scientist used to be friends, the skeksis having bantz and sometimes seeming to genuinely enjoy each other's company, wanting to "honour" Skekmal after his death and the existence of the Heretic all hints Skeksis can be more than just hateful and evil.

It's from a manga prequel (un-canon now). SkekTek knows another Skeksis (skeklach) is stealing essence which is reserved for the Emperor, but is afraid to say anything because skekLach is close to the Emperor. SkekUng is basically telling him to shut up about it, because Skektek is a little bitch and would probably be punished for talking shit about a popular skek.

thank you sm!

You just know.

Attached: 687667678687.jpg (400x398, 31K)

SkekLach is a he? Are any of the Skeksis female?

see, you could totally fuck one of those things and not kill it

Skeksis don't have gender since they can't breed, they just usually dress like one or the other.

Honestly SkekUng is being a bro here
Many other Skeksis would goad Scientist into making an accusation and getting his shit kicked in again

SkekLach is he in comic, but pretty sure it's supposed to a she in the show, has female voice like SkekEkt (pink fancy skek)

Technically they don't have genders, but still. those two read as female because of the voices and their outfits/jewelry seem more effeminate.

As others have said, they're "and uncomfortable mix of both"

This SkekLach is conceptually outdated and bears little resemblance to the AoR version

Manga SkekLach is basically a Kingdom Hearts Boss Skeksis

Attached: SkekLach_the_Collector.jpg (300x466, 93K)

All things considered SkekUng actually had a fair amount of patience for Skektek, possibly due to him creating the Garthim which got him to the position he's in. When he got upset at Skektek in the movie he was nowhere near as viscous about it as SkekSo was.

I did like how some Skeksis clearly got along better than with others, especially how everyone more or less seemed to at least like SkekEkt more than others.

I can kinda imagine that hump they got in their beak being the first of a long line of pustule clusters.

I know it's possibly not the original intention but you'll notice that the Garthim fall apart right after the Crystal is healed and returns to its original color
This gives credence in my mind that the Garthim will eventually be powered by Darkening rather than flesh and blood, so it would make sense that when the dark energy is purged they would cease function

Best girl by a mile.

The Garthim don't need to be empowered by the darkening necessarily, the original proposal by the Chamberlain and the General was that their constructed army would be powered by the Crystal, which is always how I interpreted the Garthim falling apart after the crystal was healed. It didn't have the properties of the "Dark Crystal" that they used to power their soldiers, so they failed when it was restored.

>everyone more or less seemed to at least like SkekEkt more than others
Yeah. They held a feast/party when she returned to castle. She also isn't mean to the others, just excited at the prospect of violence/Scientist getting Peeper Beetled like everyone else. Was even crying and hugging Scrollkeeper in sadness over SkekLach's death.

Just finish my own rewatch of the movie

I don't know if I just am on a high note because I like Age of Resistance so much or if time just made my tastes different but I enjoyed it quite a bit more on the whole

The pacing and story don't linger for too long in the wrong place. While there's mysteries to things there's enough explained to understand what you need to. Jen is a bit dopey but it comes across as reasonably naive due to his circumstances. Kira is best girl and the alternate universe where she was the main character is probably the better movie
The series does the best things it possibly could with the world, the expanded screentime for both the skeksis and gelfling characters being top among these. Seeing more about how the world's peoples lived and acted is great

What things I do still complain about; Jen's mental monologing near the start was strangely bothersome. I think especially because of it being puppets having words without mouth movements just felt wrong. They should have busted the extra ass to have those lines spoken "aloud." Chamberlain's end is pretty anticlimactic given how he's mostly the most important skeksis in the movie. He just kinda stops being a factor after grabbing Kira. Also Fizzgig was obnoxious fuzzshit and should have been torched by the Innermost Sun

While I do personally think the movie is quite good, the rewatch has solidified my opinion that it should be viewed BEFORE the series. The significant difference in time given to characters will be most jarring if you go to the movie after the series, and I think that you'll get the best experience in production order, allowing you to get the expansion of the world and species you discover in the movie and learn more about in the series

End, begin, all the same.

MORE SUFFERING

>so the others I mentioned aren't?
Honestly no, at the very least none of the others have ever actually killed another Skeksis. Maim and exile, sure, but Skeksis as a whole look at members of their race dying with an extreme amount of horror and don't seem able to even consider it.

How else could they even have an Emperor? If they were willing to kill then that guy would have had so many knives in his back every second that his Mystic would look like swiss cheese.

I'm in the same boat. I first watched the movie around 11 years ago, and wasn't really impressed at all. I only liked the Skeksis and suspected they were the only reason the movie was remembered at all. The show really enhanced my appreciation for it all, though.

God DAMN just starting AoR again and these skeksis puppets are orgasmic to look at

>(or at least not to the same extent)
That's why I qualified it with "pure." The other skeksis are sociopathic, but have some streaks of sympathetic nature here and there even if they express it in selfish ways. But Chamberlain is a selfish sociopath by the standards of these other selfish sociopaths, he takes that shit to another level. Literally every interaction he has with any other character involves him manipulating them to his own selfish ends. Even sucking up to the Emperor is just his way of getting back into his good graces and restoring his right-hand seat from which he can even more easily manipulate the Emperor and the other skeksis. He is an absolutely irredeemable asshole.

How come nobody has posted any links?

damn, that'll make their inevitable end even sadder

It kind of saddens me that Chamberlain is such a sociopath, as he is so much fun to see and hear, but doesn't have as much depth (or none at all) as the other skeksis

>Three dubs and a trip
Blessed as fuck post.

>but doesn't have as much depth (or none at all) as the other skeksis
I actually disagree with that, the carriage ride with Rian and talk with SkekMal definitely fleshed out alot of how he thinks and views the world. Essentially when he's talking about how Skeksis see the Gelfling he's really describing how SkekSil sees the other Skeksis. He views them as pets to do as he sees with and use for his benefit, and anything that rises against him as a threat needs to be put down.

There's a reason why he was the other challenger to be the new emperor to SkekUng, because he saw that power as belong to him, as rightfully his to take because he already places himself above all his fellow Skeksis.

Plus you can just borrow a friend's account and use a screen.

I wonder how many Gelfling's there are? If they're a worldwide society, you would think they could just pour it on and kill 14ish Skeksis. But it seems they're not too huge, since the Stone in the Wood seem to be kind of.... well dead. And there weren't a lot of them.

It's hard to find the line between what they can afford to show, and what they want to impart about the world.

I mean the Skeksis first cover for collecting Gelfling was a new war with the Aritham. And they only asked for 49 Gelfling for that whole army. So I guess there's not terribly many.

Yeah but we're shilling something that's actually good.

So this is what they were like in the beginning. It is both beautiful and sad.

Close, SkekZok was considering recalling the other distant skeks in the wake of SkekMal's injuring
Skeks Sa and Na were mentioned by name, as well as SkekUng from the movie

Puppetry is such a fascinating medium, it's a shame that good uses of it in media are so sporadic. I remember when people were saying Team America was bringing around a bunch of new interest, but nothing ever came of that.

But with AoR showing how amazing it can work with just the slightest cgi for extra touches i really hope we get to see some more people willing to take the chance on it.

they should puinish that traitor

Sexually?

the movie version is definitely a queenie fag

I think the only place they really should have let themselves go a bit more nuts with the CGI then they did was adding numbers to the Gelfling making a last stand at Stone in the Wood. That's the only place I felt like things fell off track from their intent, to what they showed.

Which frankly, considering the huge scale of the story and locations is an amazing accomplishment.

That was so disturbing, it was a good thing he turned out to be alive. Could you imagine if he actually stayed dead and you had to eat dinner with a maggot infested corpse stinking up the room that the Emperor refuses to get rid of?

I was probably pretty horrific for the skeksis. The main things they remember when they were whole were feeling things like sorrow, grief, and regret, and didn't have the empathy to know why it was good to be able to feel those feels.

I assume the caves must have been a pretty safe place to live pre-Darkening if she was fine just sleeping out in the open like that.

I just finished watching the show do I don't got much fanart to post sorry.

It's on Netflix, it has some clips of the CGI gelflings they were originally planning to use.

and how is that going to happend?skesis have not sex drive,hell im not even sure they have junk

He's just wearing a lot of clothing!

I've seen spoonfeedfags sperg out like this before when a thread tells them to find it themselves. Next he'll rant about how he never even wanted to watch it anyways.

If I'm wrong why does it upset you so much, Netflix?

Has this been discussed in canon at all?

Normally I don't mind pirating. Sure, whatever, it's another damn show. But this was honestly a pretty darn good show with so much, just so absurdly much, artistry put into it that it's really worth supporting. I'm not feeding nobody this time.

I just wish I had the extra few grand to buy the dumb damn statues to hammer home there's a market for all this stuff. Though those all sold out, so no need there. I'm buying the action figures though. God help me I'm giving Funko money.

SkekOk is a size queen

I'm watching it in another tab. Not giving Netflix a dime though.

Also books. Additionally, the wings on Drenchen women are also apparently terrible for flight and function more like fins for swimming.

Considering their whole shtick is over the top opulence, and they've never mentioned any sort of physical sexual desire, I think it follows. It fits with the UrSkeks being some near ascended being. Granted it's all a bit convenient as a reason to not have to go near or explain any of that in a children's property, but it works.

Damn... that's a bit retarded. It feels weird for one clan to actually be that physiologically different from the rest. Skin colors and other features make sense, but entirely different organs? Seems silly. Especially since Gelfling's are only like 3,000 years old as a species. Maybe. The wing thing makes sense though.

magic is also a thing in the setting and that shit has to play all sorts of hell on evolution

Well yeah. I guess some funky magic story can explain it. Still feels weird to me.

>Forgets the standing 3 streams piss.

They definitely have //something//.

The Gelflings were around before the Urskeks turned up, they're purely from Thra to begin with. Also if you notice the wings of the Gelfling you'll notice that different clans actually look slightly different from one another in that way.

It's for kids

let him be,any real Yea Forumsmrade knows that puppets are honorary Yea Forums

Considering they bothered to model a dick (Albeit a tiny one) for Jen in the original film and none for the Skeksis, I'm leaning more and more to the credence it may have just been a prostate joke.

If you wanted to support the creators you would send them money. If you're paid to shill the show you tell people to buy something.

They showed up after Aughra. Who's first Great Cunjunction is the one where the UrSkek's showed up.

Conjunction 0, unseen by sentients, but lets say Aughra shows up the next day with the Gelfling like... a decade later, UrSkek's show up 1,000 years later, get split another 1,000 years later, and get rejoined and leave another 1,000 years later. That gives the Gelfling a maximum of 3,000 years to have been around.

And yeah the clan's all have differences in line with races of a species, but the gill thing is pretty radical.

Retarded it is.

must girl bully you even in your fanfictions user?

Buy a Netflix sub and watch this show

Some blokes are just into that sort of thing.

>ywn be tied down and gangbanged by a horde perverted gelfling women

The dick for jen had a purpose. A junk moves fabric around, without one, he would look weird and bare down there even with pants. It isn't important or needed for the skeksis costumes to have anything like that, as they don't wear tight fitting clothing. They are bird/lizard like, so they probably would have human junks.

It's like that thing from Gulliver's Travels, but pervy

*Wouldn't.

Mira was a cute

shame, such shame

I just think it's hilarious they bothered to make merch for someone who dies in the first episode
Gurjin can't even catch a break irl

When is the Chamberlain statue coming?

Nine hundred and ninety nine and one trine

Why did they make a high fantasy nonsense word for "year" but every other mundane English word is left unreplaced?

>trine
>tri
>3 suns/3 moons

Especially odd because they're just years in the film.

Because they wanted to

so you could get mad while they laugh at you

We don't really know if it's an actual year, since as far as we know Thra might not even have seasons.

Eh, most are still applicable

Trine works well because it's very prominent that Thra orbits three suns and the fact is a large part of its cosmology

after they get done with skekMal's

Good luck getting any when the fucking Emperor sold out fast. Sil and Mal will be gone in less than a week.

Nice

I almost got the Emperor but the Chamberlain is my favorite and I can't even justify buying one of these. All three are in the same tier of based, though.

Jokes on you I bought skekSo and I'll fucking sell shit if I must to afford skekSil and skekMal
I'll buy them the fucking moment I can

Naw man, you'd GOOSH GOOSH them

I noticed that too

Money is one thing, SPACE is the real concern

Those fuckers are like one-sixth scale, that's not small. You'd need a castle of your own to fit the lot

I still haven't figured out how I'd protect mine from dust. There's something wrong with my house, dust accumulates in here so excessively.

Then why'd you buy the SkekSo figure then

Quick! Talk about the merchandise for sale!

>>Rian watched his love die a hideous death, and watched his leaders gorge on his remains like buzzards

I'm not him.

It was a joke. On the whole "dust" thing.

And then Skeksil forced him to watch while he drank the rest.

I figured, but you were still under the assumption I was that rich, rich user.

It's weird and heartwarming that the Scientist, the cruelest of them, loves his birdies

As we understand currently, SkekNa is the meanest of the bunch
Pretty much all of the skeks have some attribute that approaches decency or makes them sympathizable, especially earlier on, but it is said SkekNa was openly horrible from the very start

It was like the plot from a cuckold hentai

I CHALLENGE!

Was watching this episode with first time viewers today, friend was very into it.
>Drink it. Holy fuck. Drink it you bastard. Drink it in front of him. YES!

I can believe it. I used to play D&D, and I've known many SkekNas before. Brainy types who put on the "woe is me" act, but when you get to know them you realize they are just shitty, decrepit people who think everybody else is at fault for their misery.

Post Jim henson's Creature Shop Challenge Skeksis.

That show was great, basically a better Face Off imo - shame it cost too much to produce a second season.

One thing they really fucked up that's annoying they forgot is the Skeksis visibly regaining youth and vigor like in the original film. That was one of the best effects of the original.

>Rian walks in on the Skeksis having their way with Mira's Essence
>Skeksil later ties Rian up and forces him to watch as a large amount of white fluid is consumed.

Face Off was actually pretty good.

Just too bad there's not enough of a market for creatures anymore.

Yeah its a real shame
Looking at most of the work the studio does now - most of it is commercials with the occasional music video. Very little non-muppet stuff outside of commercials.

Just going on a wild guess, they didn't forget, but it wasn't in the budget. Maybe the Scientist refines it later and it begins having a more physical effect.

If they'd just fixed the derpy Sid the Sloth set of the eyes, Ice Skek probably would have won

Absolute STATE of the desert team though, that was bad

That bugged me as well, but i kinda chalked that up to the possibility that that was the first time SkekUng had ever actually had essence before, since he wasn't there at the beginning, so that's why it had a pronounced effect on him.

I feel like in the last year or two I've seen the start of a return to some more practical effects. Or maybe I'm dreaming, fuck if I know.

Goddamn nothing in Endgame was real, nearly none of the uniforms even. Jeez. It's not that I didn't like Engdame, not starting MCU shit. But jeez make some actual costumes.

Tina (I think her name was) was the absolute pits. I thought Russ was a huge asshole in episode one but when the other team member couldn't stand Tina I realized he just got the worst partner. That lady was manic.

Now we shall see what lies at the thread's end...

Thoughts on the Yea Forums dark crystal threads?

I want Aughra to shove her eye up my ass and express contempt for my diet through examination of the waste in my intestines

last post for DOOT

These threads are bad enough with some of the perversion. Yea Forums is nothing but anger and utter perversion. It's hardly half a step above /po/.

They're alright. More OC and discussion here though.

went there briefly
was not impressed

>It's hardly half a step above /po/.
You leave those origami autists alone.

Yea Forums is a low quality board and it's threads reflect that
