/hmm/ - Dark Crystal general

Do they have some kind of cloning technology?

The crystal gives them super pure genetics that don't degrade through incest and an insatiable sex drive. The rest is history.

Is Jen the son of Rian and Deet?
As to “what happens to them” I think they could easily go with : some Gelflings were living underground

Interbred with the fire gelflings who live near the core.

the other urskeks don't give a shit about thra
probably through dreamfasting

>Rian and Deet
Rian and Brea maybe, Deet is too far gone. She's gonna carry the darkening until it either kills her or she somehow gets rid of it amd dies not long after. Most likely she'll find some way to restrain it to the area surrounding the castle since that's the only completely dead area in the movie.

Just finished this and it was fucking excellent. Got some powerful Pellenor Fields vibes at the finale, except much smaller and with puppets.
Poor Deet though, hope best waifu is ok

anyone else feel like the show had a really good start the first 5 episodes or so and then kind of just mellows down after? i started to lose interest when other skeksi like the hunter and the desert one were introduced. really wish we got to see more of the podlings and Hup they were my favorite part of the show

When they die in the film, they just fall apart and are empty shells. So I imagine after that prototype he figures out how to make them without needing much organic material.

Hunter and Heretic were great, but I do agree that there should be more podlings in the show.

i'm mixed about the heretic. i like the idea of a neutral skeksi who acknowledges his mystic and accepts him, but i thought they were supposed to unite into one when they do? i dislike the hunter one because he does grunt work any other creature could do. it doesn't seem very skeksi to value "trophies" so much that you're willing to die for them

Only the crystal being healed can reunite them

That scene was fucking savage.First the emperor has the fake-out speech about conserving essence, then the skekses pig out on it, then emperor BTFO's Celadon into the next trine, and THEN they rip her gown to shreds and send her to be drained. It goes from comedic to dramatic to darkly comedic and then fucking horrifying all in the span of 5 minutes. At this point there is no longer even the pretense of cooperation with the Gelflings and we get to see how utterly contemptuous the Skekses really are of them. Fuck what a great show.

Agreed we didn't get nearly enough Hup and Deet adventures. Hup and Deet made a much more capable and fun pair than Deet and Rian. I am so mad Hup was benched for the last several episodes.

the great conjunction and a fixed crystal is needed to recombine urskeks

They can't just become one by accepting each other, they're still split by the crystal, the power of friendship can't undo that. And the whole point of the hunter is that he's not like the other skeksis, he's a muscular powerhouse. The archer is basically the mystic equivalent of that, they're both the most physically able of their race.

Also,What's each of their restaurant and school is like ?
Are there any Gelflings or Podling anons here who had worked or study there told me about their experiences ?

If he shot the arrow it would also have been suicide. I did like that one user's idea that he shoots an arrow one or two episodes before it lands and kills the Hunter though. But in both cases it makes him a bit too OP and is probably too far in terms of violence. You can't have the peaceful mystic stick an arrow through someone's skull.

Anyone got that gif of skekSo doing that twirl during their autistic dance party?

A lot more ordered and peaceful. He'd never have declared war on all Gelflings and tried to wipe them out.

They fucked like rabbits. Pure.

We're not doing this shitty fanfiction.

>t. Castle Guard snitch

He figured out how to harness the darkening, but it's more to do with that crystal he has in his staff. He also decays faster than the other skeksis so it's not exactly ideal.

What was his deal?

He’s basically me

All of the Skeksis and the urRu are familiar with the esoteric to some extent. The mystics are called "natural wizards", and their counterparts likewise dabble in mad science and dark magic.

I found the first two episodes slow.
Then the third picked up a bit. I also didn't really enjoy the first Hunter introduction part that followed. But the desert part you're talking about I liked a lot because it showed more of the world, and made it feel larger for the first time. The one thing I don't like about the show compared to the movie is that you don't get the same sense of scale and grandness to the world. Chamberlain is like tping back and forth between the castle and Stone In The Wood.

Thra isn't very large. Given, it makes sense considering the crystal is the centre of their world. Their planet may be an upside down three-sided pyramid, like a triangle.

Does his mystic counterpart die too? (Haven’t watched the movie in decades)

In Jim Henson’s original sketches thra was only 700km from its two furthest points and basically a flat triangle floating through space

Yes he was Jens sensei and leader of the mystics

yeah

How much of the prequel series is from Henson’s ideas or is it all new stuff based off the movie ? That is to say : did Henson have an idea for more movies based off Dark Crystal but never got to making it or is the series basically like the Disney Star Wars sequels

Power of the dark crystal and beneath the dark crystal are sequel comics based on Henson's original ides. They are very good.

Power of the dark crystal is a flaming pile of garbage and you know it.

Why does he gets so abused bros

Attached: images - 2019-09-10T131947.275.jpg (452x678, 42K)

Because he is the cutest skek.

It's because he's a total sub and secretely loves it

He is the most useful, but the most socially inept. They keep him in check so he knows his place. If he was any more cunning he'd be a major threat to the Emperor.

DEET DEET

All this dark deet nonsense when she's clearly suffering for it. She can't just willy nilly it.

Doesn't he have a sudden change of heart halfway the episodes? He seemed to genuinely care about his creatures, and next thing he clubs them to death and becomes literal Hitler.

Blaming it on the essence seems lame because the others don't seem to change so much in personality

He snapped like an bullied school shooter.

I hate the podlings and cringe anytime they're on screen personally. The more skeksis the better. I want grimdark crystal.

Hup is based though

C y c l e o f a b u s e

Podlings are fun. They seem to be the only musicians and know how to party. They are the ones that lighten the mood, always grim dark gets tiring and boring.

Attached: Podlings-2.jpg (360x251, 24K)

All of them go power mad once they get a taste for essence. Most obvious with the scroll keeper who was very jovial with the gelflings in the first episode when he really didn't have to be.

Scientist still cares for his creatures though, the ones he killed weren't his, they were the slaves Chamberlain gave him.

Gelflings are lighthearted enough for me without being silly and annoying.

I just remembered that his animals end up killing him. The bullying never stops.

Gelflings are mostly not light hearted, they are pretty serious. You have Skeks on one end of the spectrum, Podlings living it up on the other end and Gelflings in the middle.

Even Aughra calls her out on her bullshit.

He is incontrovertibly the most abused creature on all of Thra.

All female leaders are failures in this. The All-Mordra doesn't listen and raises a sociopath and eventually gets killed because she's a dumbass, Mordra Fara does all the stuff you said (seriously how did she get bodied by fucking Seladon?), I don't think I even need to list what Selodon does wrong, three of the other mordras bow down to a clearly insane Seladon and Aughra started this whole mess when she gave the urskeks the crystal so she could fuck off into space. I think the only one that wasn't a complete fuck-up was the grottan mordra.

He likes his little creature in the cage, he didn't seem to regard the Gruenaks as anything but slave assistants. Also he was pissed off at being constantly trodden on and sometimes bully victims kick downward.

If there's one thing I have to critizise it's the lack of a sense for distances or scales in the show. In the beginning the skesis set out for Harar by carriage and expect to be there at sundown. One time, Rian and gang dreamfast in the woods while Brea and family are in Harar. Then the Skeksis take her and Rian is suddenly in Harar. After a short pursuit they are in the woods again and even the rock golem caught up.

she is a fangirl, probably she has a secret diary full of Rian and Gurjin yaoi

Because the Skeksis base their entire hierarchy on physical prowess, not intelligence and ingenuity. The Emperor kept his spot for so long because even when he seems like he's breaking down, he's so vicious that no one dares to try and fuck with him. It's why the General was so loyal, because he respected the Emperor's power and aggressiveness. The Chamberlain was the most devious and was the most impactful, but in the end he wouldn't have been able to control the Skeksis for long with just that.

Finding the usefulness in something isn't a change of heart. He's always stone cold, but that doesn't mean he doesn't see a value in something for himself.

Aye. In fact I honestly believe Deet is the true villain of the series. The Skeksis will get btfo horribly and hide in their castle but Deet will be a threat to Thra and her jealousy of Brea will tip her over the edge. Her vision had her sitting in the Skeksis chair after all and Brea running away with a child maybe Jen. A lot of Gelfling will die to take her out leaving the rest as easy pickings for the Garthim

This is a cringe theory

Given that the writers of the show aren't you typical low-IQ /pol/ dwellers, i'd say the chance for that is pretty slim
If anything, the racist, genocidal, ritual-obsessed, fascist skeksis can easily be read as an allegory for Nazis

people project their obsessions/boogeyman onto Skesis.

>In fact I honestly believe Deet is the true villain of the series

This would be such a horrible idea.

so then whites are weak pathetic rodent creatures that are easily outsmarted????

So who are you looking forward to see from the remaining Skeksis if there's a season 2?
There were 18 in total, two of them, SkekHak and SkekYi, died shortly after the split when the Skeksis attacked the Mystics and discovered the hard way what happens to one happens to the other.

11 have appeared on the show, 3 who appeared in the film have yet to appear on the show and 2 haven't been seen on-screen in the show or film. Some were mentioned when the Skeksis considered recalling them to the castle before the big battle in the finale:

SkekUng the Garthim-Master/Second General (and eventually second Emperor), lead villain of the film and commander of the Garthim army, was mentioned in season 1 by name.

SkekShod the Treasurer: Was a background character in the film in charge of keeping the Skeksis' treasures and gifts, wasn't mentioned at all in season 1. My guess is they thought his role was too similar to the Collector's and so held off on him til future episodes

SkekNa the Slavemaster: Also a background character in the film, in charge of directing the zombified Podling slaves to do Skeksis bidding. Was mentioned in Season 1.

SkekSa the Mariner: Not in the film, obviously in charge of ships. Supplemental material had them depart the castle by choice after a disagreement with the Emperor and went sailing round the seas. Mentioned with SkekUng and SkekNa as good in a fight.

SkekLi the Satirist: Not in the film, originally the court jester and later took to writing insulting satire for amusement. Supplemental material had him be so fucking annoying that even the other Skeksis couldn't stand him and booted him out of the castle. Mentioned in Season as not much use in a fight.

Mariner/Satirist are not in the film and therefore have to die in the show at some point, same with the Heretic.

They just invented the Garthim in the end of season 1 and held off on SkekUng the Garthim Master. The Garthim war is obviously what season 2 is covering.

This.

There are only so many options, I mean we all know what the endgame is. I just hope they don't rehash the final moments of of Revenge of the Sith.

It was a cool idea, though I see why they dropped it. It also gave us the Chamberlain's signature vocals. his funky tone was supposed to be because he was familiar with the common tongue, like a foreigner speaking

>There are only so many options
And that didn't stop them from worldbuilding fantastically for the first season. I seriously doubt they will go with a Dark Deet. She looked more like she was suffering. I doubt she can actually control it, only absorb and redirect.

>SkekShod the Treasurer
This guy sounds so much fun. Make him a full-on Scrooge McDuck-type gold obsessed birb.

I await the Treasurer and Slavemaster since the show was great for giving the background Skeksis from the film more screentime and stuff to do. Ones like the Gourmand or Scrollkeeper only had like 1-2 lines in the film but were pretty great in the show as supporting characters.

As the name suggests, that's more Marionette work that true puppetry.

Yeah I wanted to see more of the gelflin and podling society before the shit hit the ground

Yeah well I'm working to fix that mother fucker.

But do they have Skeksisposting? Hmmmmm?

The Chad SkekSil
The Virgeneral SkekVar

i want SkekNa for season 2 bad

Yeeeees, user. Skeksisposting, yeeees hmmmm.

I have both threads open all day.

absolutely obsessed incel

RIP skekLach. You will not be missed, you disgusting cow.

>yfw you realize unless they either have it so Heretic and Wanderer are just hidden and unaccounted for in the movie, or they pull some asspull in Season 2, Heretic and Wanderer will never actually recombine and die before they can

I'm sure they will die hugging, user. That makes it a little better.

I wonder if her mystic counterpart was also some gross thing

Good, fuck everyone who tries to go against the lords of the crystal.

based, that was the only other bad skeksis.

If it's skekLach's counterpart it must have been stunningly beautiful.

*smashes your fucking head in*

I hope if they ever do remake the movie they have a better reason for why Chamberlain would agree to trial by stone it makes him look like a dumbass

My boy deserves only research funding and hugs.

skekLach's counterpart was UrSen the Preserver who seems to look normal for a mystic. Maybe because SkekLach got the way she was after trying to obtain a cursed item

GET BACK IN THE LAB WEAKLING

Maybe Skeksil isn't as weak as everyone thinks he is, or that Skekur isn't as strong. Skekur is just the master of the garthim, so I don't think he has to be physically powerful. General, Heretic, and Hunter were probably the really strongest physically.

I'm pretty sure the supplemental material (or maybe the novelization) said he effectively had no choice, he wasn't banking on someone challenging him for the scepter, given he had been the next in line all along. Once he'd been challenged the only outcome was Trial by Stone, otherwise he was forfeiting to SkekUng

Oh, that makes sense.

Because it was time to make... his move.

He was definitely meant to be physically strong, he was taller and broader than SkekSil and given he's the general of their army you can assume he was meant to be a beefcake. The General was very similar to him, except dumber and more gullible. SkekUng saw through any of SkekSil's bullshit.

Hold up, he also did SkekUng the Garthim Master

Would have gotten away with it too, if not for MEDDLESOME GELFING

I need a bigger version. Looks awesome.

Doesn't Mariner literally use a giant sea monster as a living ship? That's fucking based and kino.

Who voice acted this one? I can find the others but not his. His was as good as Peggs.

Neil Sterenberg, who was also his puppeteer.

Why don't all the skeksis imprison all the mystics and keep them in padded cells occasionally force-feeding them essence so the mystics can never die/suicide?

How can garthim exterminate all the gelflings and their populations, and then fail to kill only fucking two in the movie? Yeah, doesn't make sense does it.

Because P L O T

what's easier to find on a map, an ocean or a puddle?

Muh plot armour.

The movie doesn't actually say all Gelfling were gone, there were probably a fair amount in hiding.

Once they genocide the gelflings they’ll lose a lot of the infrastructure that allowed them to keep track of them in the first place.

Good job channeling your inner Chamberlain user.

Mystics are good at being away from their problems. Also they're quite capable - they can sing garthim away. Not sure why they didn't help the gelfling.

Mystics are lazy

Because Jen and Kira are literally the chosen ones? The strings of prophecy guarantee their success. The unification is inevitable.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA CALAMITY AAAAAAAAAA

TOO BUSY SMOKING WEED

>I hope if they ever do remake the movie they have a better reason for why Chamberlain would agree to trial by stone it makes him look like a dumbass
Like when he duels the General in the show?

Man, fuck prophecy. Who even made the prophecy? What makes it something that'll happen? Oooh shit, I prophecy that I'll get a fat $1,000,000 to me sometime this year. Can't wait for that to happen. Dog shit, fuck gelfling

Best Mudra, best clan

The Mystics wouldn't/couldn't anyway. The Archer was an unusual specimen much as the Hunter was an unusual Skeksis.

Best way to explain the difference is to have the ones seen in the movie be like old broken down jalopies compared to the shiny new machines we'll get in season 2. Have it obvious that they weren't well maintained and grew weaker, just like their masters.

Also because they didn't know two Gelfling were still alive. They thought there were none left.

Lads I watched the film the other day and while it has lots of detail and charm the series just blows it out of the water. I'm sure Jim Henson would be proud.

Chamberlain honestly should have just kept General around to be bros and he might have helped him become Emperor in the movie

Kino delivery.

UNTIL LAST STAR IN SKY GOES DARK

Sequel where gelfling genocide all the UrSkeks when? Those fuckers can't get away with their crimes.

Only because all the gelfling are unwatchably dull. Podlings are alright.

Yeah, it's kind of a bummer how much nicer the General became around Chamberlain as soon as Chamberlain gave him that essence in "good faith." If only the Skeksil could just be nice to each other...

>this delusional bird legit wanted to live for 100 quintillion years
Fucking why

All hail SkekBaelish

Not only pure puppetry but unapologetic immersion in a total otherness.

Funny you insisted on bringing it up but yes there is this thing that won't die about using blood and human tissue in medicine and anti-aging treatments, and yes They are consistently accused of messing with exactly that multiple times.

But his seat

I don't think he was interested in actually hearing your spiel, dummy.

Hi moeblob
Why are you so inferior to Brea?

Skeksis are immortal and so is /hmm/

>Season 2
>ten drawn out episodes of gelfling fucking around doing lame shit, lots of hugging
>interspersed with actually interesting and fun skeksis castle shenanigans

I can't wait to see these faggots get DRAINED. Drained off their eeeesssseeeenceeee.
