These are some ideas that I don’t really see on the internet when people explore these subjects with the film and books, and when people do they tend to be very strange conspiracy theories – usually by people who seem to think that reptilian aliens are running the world, which they believe is flat. The following are some of the occultism, mysticism, mythology, and spirituality that I see not only in the Dark Crystal movie but also within its prequels. As I learned more and more about the occult, mythology, and esoteric themes as I grew up, I started to see more and more of it within The Dark Crystal. Jim Henson has a history of putting very important and adult themes into his works such as Dinosaurs which tackles everything from war, to materialism, to global warming, to drug abuse, to those selling religion, or Fraggle Rock sharing themes about personal responsibility in society, community or exploring timeless themes and his love of folklore and myth with shows like The Storyteller. He drastically improves the most boring element of the Dark Crystal, in my opinion, the Gelflings and greatly enriches the world of Thra through his storytelling.Įven as a child I could tell that there were profound meanings in the movie. Lee’s prequels to the Dark Crystal Movie, which seem to be in the same era as the Netflix shows are perhaps my favorite Dark Crystal works to date. Aside from the pledge to not use any CGI and keep the feel the same as the original movie or the amazing cast which includes Mark Hamill, Eddie Izzard, Helena Bonham-Carter, Toby Froud (the baby from Labyrinth) and many other big names – but the movie has both Brian and Wendy Froud working on the project (like the original) and J.M. Some people are worried or skeptical that it’s not going to be as good as the original movie.
