It's Bold Gurjin you dummy

It would be very reasonable - high enough to give the Skeksis all they want, but just low enough to keep the gelflings thriving and reproducing. With reasonable essence quotas.

The Skeksis are a pretty obvious stand in for Jews. They were good guys until a certain turning point several thousand years ago, then became increasingly deranged and inbred until their savagery became common knowledge. The draining of essence is an obvious parallel with blood libel, and their behavior of scheming and screwing over other races is meant to remind the viewer of their interactions with other nations.

Very informative

How did they fuck up so badly.

I liked her a lot. Too bad the skeks didn't keep her around for a while to bring them gelflings before the inevitable mindbreak, but I guess they were high and we can't blame em for not thinking it through.

They ruled for almost a 1000 years, they did pretty well.

Her instantly being BTFO was way more entertaining and surprising.
Same with her not even fighting the Stonewood maudra. It was just weird how she still overpowered her so easily.

The scripts overall were pretty fantastic I have to say. They captures the Henson vibe perfectly. Wonder how Netflix will fuck it up in season 2. Or maybe we get lucky and they have a "Dark" like deal were Netflix only funds it and all creative desicions are made by the production company.

They ruled unchallenged for a thousand years. The only reason they weren't even more successful was because they couldn't assimilate the population through rape

I hope it's a Dark situation. Also they better get Louis back to do the directing.

Things that are in Season 2's favor:

>Netflix Twitter has retweeted the positive reactions of Matthew Mercer, Thomas Sanders and Jhonen Vasquez basically saying that they love the show

>Season 2 should cost less since most of the sets and puppets are already done

>>Writers say that they have a Season 2 script ready to go and are waiting for the Netflix greenlight
Yes, that is good! That means the old crew wrote it so we can expect a similar level of quality.

>none of my friends enjoy fantasy or puppetry.
What a bunch of plebs. Get new friends.

Me neither. Lads in Yea Forums were pretty optimistic about it, but Yea Forums seem to be hopeless.

I'm not Indian, why would I give a shit about them? I'm not Gelfling, why would I give a shit about them?
See how that works?

fucking pegg outdid himself lads, he either has to be a fan of the original and did the voice as a lad all the time, or he's a god tier voice actor, fucker is better than hamil real talk

>go rewatch it or put it on a replay loop.
Would that actually help?!

Seems more of a jewish thing. Down right to the blood rituals of using christian children to replenish their youth.

None of it matters since (((they))) will ultimately decide it's fate.

I completely agree. And here I thought Pegg's glory days were behind him and we turned into a bitter old fuck.

Because Yea Forums knows jack shit about mass media, but we do. That's why we have less hope about it because I've seen shows way more promising than AoR getting canned for no reason at all.

You should watch the making off documentary. It's on netflix. Very interesting.

My UK Netflix has a top 10 list on, which presumably is the most popular shows.

A week or so ago Dark Crystal was around 3rd or 4th, now it's not even in the top 10, but maybe it's because I finished the series.

I sincerely hope you guys are right and it gets renewed, this show unironically gave me hope for modern tv, but if it gets cancelled I'm gonna go back to being a bitter old cunt.

Anyway not gonna pay for netflix. It's like 99% of thrash. But this one was at least pretty good. Story wise it's kinda basic fantasy shit, but the visuals and voice acting are mostly cool.

Were do you get from that it is doing well?
I neither see any indication it's doing bad nor that is is doing well. Number 3 means nothing in theory 1 million people could have watched the number 1 rated show, and 50k or less the number 3.
For example ony 1,500 out of 560,499 documentaries released in the US have made more than 8,000USD.

We need concreate numbers to know how many subscribers actually watched it so we can have an idea if a second season would make sense for Netflix.

Currently I've gotten my parents, a friend and a college professor to check it out. Also made a Facebook post about it but IDK how many people that attracted.

Surprisingly, my professor became interested when I told him that the show was all puppets.

Erasing someone’s memories is almost murder. It shouldn’t get just a slap on the wrist.

>Anyway not gonna pay for netflix

I have like 15 hard drives filled with films and tv shows, but if you can I urge you to buy a subscription to netflix, they're the best thing to happen to cinema/tv shows in years, stuff like this god tier show wouldn't be possible if it weren't for them and that alone warrants a sub from me at least

Yes. Netflix only counts "engament" which is playtime similar to YouTube.
So if your account watched it 3 times they translate it to mom+dad watched it, then the son then the daugher to investors.

IMO this is better than stranger things, this is the best show netflix has right now

fucking stellar show, maybe has a bit of filler shit here and there, it could have been 8 episodes and tighter when it comes to pacing, but holy fuck is it good

Yeah it seems it pretty much flopped in Europe and Asia. And even in the US it was only popular for a week.

He's right though. The collapse of distribution combined with the ever rising ceiling has made it so that anything and everything that's not a 100+ mil capeshit designed to buy your allegiance for the next five, it's going to be on Netflix.

The problem with prequels is we know how it will all play out. And in this case it means for Gelflings all hope is lost and they are about to be extinct.
Unless Netflix retcons the movie or goes the cop out - they were hidden in Grotta route which both would be lame as fuck.

It means it's getting a popularity amongst normies. Getting compared with GoT is a good thing.

You're forgetting that the comic industry is twice as jewish as television and movies, and more likely to kill or gut a good series because execs and producers had a bad day.

Try Carnival Row and Thunderbolt Fantasy.

the game looks ok for a tactics rip off.

It WILL get renewed. Don't listen the salty assholes in this thread as they don't want to cling to hopes.

Yeah definitely and a year or two from now Apple'll be eating them alive. It's like the early 00s all over again when Sony et all ran cardboard servers to sell you an mp3 album for 20 bucks and still get a rootkit.

It's a tactics board game, not a RPG.

Raunip is aughra's 'son's, he plays the satan archetype opposite her god archetype. In the comics he's more or less the reason the urskeks got the idea to remove their evil sides.
He's not evil, but he is the classical trickster and tempter.

My bad I'm not that user from before I just mean the glut of garbage isn't really just a thing with them.

Half their shows I swear were adapted from scripts intended to be films. Stranger Things comes to mind.

What's strange is, none of the comics really mention what happened to Raunip's fate after he left to find the lost shard.

I think the size of the gelfling pose a problem though, since they are smaller than humans.

what does that have to do with wanting to fuck them?

The great thing about them is that they're absolutely evil- there's a little bit of villainy in everyone, so they could represent anyone.

Skeksil is a jobber in the movie, but Jen and Kira didn't really outwit him as much as they just said 'no, fuck you' and ran away.

Unrelated, but in that same scene where he goes "PLEASE MAKE PEACE" used to scare me so bad I would fast-forward it as a kid.

Well let's just agree that raunip wasn't a good creature. Maybe he's intentions were good but in the end it was the end and nobody remembers him. not even the tv show writers.

Is this worth getting netflix for

>seething over millenial or Netflix disparagement

One of the best shows I've watched in the past 10 years. I want it to have a second season, so I'm going to say yes.

>not even the tv show writers
They namedropped him in the show and hinted in an interview that he may appear in future episodes.

Then missed it. And i don't watch interviews anyway.

>>he's intentions were good
>hates illegal immigrants even though he is also one himself
>doesn't like how they help shape the society from being savages even though raunip never cared for the gelflings in the first place
>convinces (with help) a gelfling who witness an autist sing his screeching song
>harasses that one autist to be evil making the crystal reject the Urseks and punishing them all because of it

that's pretty much the only way to beat him is to just stonewall him.

In what ep was Raunip namedropped?

Granted, you have to be a retarded gelfling to trust anything coming out of this guy. SkeVar is excused, as they are both skeks.

Nah, SkekVar should've known better. He got what was coming to him.

Ep 6 I think, Raunip's Pass is mentioned as the setting for Trial by Air.

i'm calling you a retard because you're a retard, i'm not defending millennials or netflix

Poor old naive skekVar.

That's the joke.

SkekVar was a good and loyal boy, even to trash backstabber rats like SkekSil.

Implying any of that is a bad thing

>Podzoned

I still can't believe they included that scene, hilarious.

Is this show worth watching?
What other series would you guys say is equal in quality/entertainment value, so I have a frame of reference?

Skekvar was literally to pure for that world

Yes it is.

It’s mainly comparable to LOTR in terms of quality.

Yes. 80's dark fantasy with modern puppetry and effects. Don't really know what I would compare it to. You should know after the first or second ep if it's for you.

Kek

It's really hard to give a frame of reference for this, it's pretty unique. Er...It always reminds me of the film Legend, but with a better defined world and characters. It's a dark fantasy that does not skim on the dark.

I would agree, but with a darker tone and no humans.

>LOTR in terms of quality.
I mean if you never seen LOTR, then yes.

Skekvar is a big skeksis dog. Loyal, stupid and impatient

That early test looks almost like Mira, and her holding the essence makes me think originally Rian got essence'd and Mira was the one who escaped.

It would have been a complete disaster

Burgeoning gurjin, the hymen surgeon

No wonder SkekSo liked him. Now I feel even worse.

Absolutely.

I hadn't seen the movie until shortly before the series aired, so I had no nostalgia for the material or anything. Movie is kino. Think of when you first saw Avatar in theatres and the immersion of that world, except with OT Star Wars story vibes and a twinge of a horror vibe.

The show follows that, but has a distinctly more LOTR/Pan's Labyrinth feeling and atmosphere and has more characters which are more fleshed out and has a stronger horror vibe.

Personally, I don't think there's a good 1:1 comparison because it really stands out as its own beast and accomplishment.

Perfect.

You won't do shit incel

Is the show easy to get into, and consistently watchable?
I don't feel like investing time in a show that gets watchable after a few episodes, and is inconsistent in quality of it's episodes, like Better Call Saul

Hello!

Must they show her ass in every panel she is in?

It's a prequel to the movie, no need to have watched it. Easy to get into if you're not a pleb and scared off by puppets. Just watch and decide for yourself.

It's 10 straight hours of kino

It's boring. The fight scenes are awkward and stupid. And they keep bobbing up and down when they walk.

girls maybe never date dogs but you just know

Not a real Crystal thread if this lazy pasta doesn't show up.

It's pretty easy to pick up. If you like fantasy should be no problem. No filler either really, each episode is pure plot progression.

>those cute useless extra arms

Very easy to get in to. The show's lowest point is the first half of the first episode because it may start to feel like they're just building up a bunch of fantasy cliches. But that's because they're deliberately throwing you off. The episode takes a left turn in to nightmare alley and from there the show is one giant snowball of kino.

Now that's a product for kids.

>cute
Sure user.

So that's what the carapace-like structures are for, concealing and carrying their withered second pair of arms. Neat!

It's the best thing I've ever watched on netflix by a long shot.

Yes. Have you used the free trial?

Why do you hurt me, user?

This. In fact, this may be the best thing I've seen on any platform in years. It's breathtaking at an artistic level, but it's also a really engaging story and has great characters and a multilayered story.

I've been finished the series for about a week and a half and I can't stop thinking about it. Like a crack addict, I need more episodes.

Alright, I'll give the show a try tomorrow. Thanks for your recommendations, friends

I'm sorry
It hurts me too ;-;

:(

>Stands up to SkekMal without a second's hesitation
I'm honestly not half the man Hup is.

>I can't stop thinking about it
Yesterday, my friend who I watched it with two weeks ago turned to me out of the blue and said the same.

It leaves an impression, that's for sure.
