The Dark Crystal : 3 of 5
3.05.2001

When I was much younger, this movie was spectacular. As an adult, it's not as amazing as a whole, but thankfully the DVD has an extensive behind-the-scenes feature that increased my appreciation ten fold. Lots of talented people created the world of The Dark Crystal, mainly Kermit and Miss Piggy (Jim Henson and Frank Oz - also Yoda!). I do need to mention that hearing the voice of Augra spoken makes you realize that Frank Oz can only do one voice - Grover, Yoda, and Augra are all the same. That aside, the puppetry in the film is pretty incredible, except for the main Gelfling characters, which come across as Kermits with moveable eyes. This was still an enjoyable bit of nostalgia, though, so I'm glad I rented it.
