Movie information in first post provided by The Movie Database
The Dark Crystal was a classic 80s movie. I remember watching this movie when I was a kid and I was blown away. Netflix had a tv show about the time before that led to the events of the movie. It only ran for one season and that was that. I was so upset that they didn’t make a season 2.
 
I remember this movie but don't remember ever watching it...even though I should of course...

If you’re into fantasy epic type of movies then this one is a must. Actually if you plan on watching it watch the Netflix series first which takes place before the movie. Surprisingly Netflix did a good job for once.
