The Dark Crystal...................

right i just bought this today on DVD
as i remeber when i watched it as a kid back in 82 or 83 it was awsome.
Im scared to watch it now just incase it doesnt meet my more "grown up" expectations.

confuse

can it still be as good as it was back in the day?


help me.
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

It's not as scary (those black beetle thingys gave me nightmares as a child!) but it's still good.

I haven't seen it since back when it was in the theaters either. I can hardly remember it. Please, when you're done watching it, DO tell if it's a recommendable buy. biggrin

I don't enjoy it now as much as I did when I was younger... but, it is still one of my favorite movies. Brian Froud is a genius with fantasy characters! I love that man's art!

I've been holding back from seeing it too cuz I don't wanna find out it's corny. I was a big fan of it though back in the day.

It's not as scary but it's still cool to watch. The "skekzies" still look disgusting...
