The Dark Crystal (1982)

Chad just watched The Dark Crystal for the first time. This is one of Evan's very favorite movies, so rest assured they will be nerding out hard about it. Evan does his best impression of the narrator, and Chad can't believe this movie was actually intended for children to see. Do you remember all the fun facts doled out in this retrospective? Find out on another exciting episode of Book Reviews Kill! 

 

** Also, Evan here. The crystal cracked because an UrSkek gave into its darker nature. Whether this was as a result of the great conjunction 1,000 Trine before the events of the movie or the resulting schism between uru and skeksis or both is a little hazy. It's 1am and I'm kinda tired. I'll be more diligent next time. 

***Cool fun fact though: the resonance of the Crystal of Truth cracking can allegedly still be heard in the castle even after all that time. Kinda rad. 

Anyway, thanks for listening <3
