Revisiting Age of Resistance : Episode 1 

This show was beautiful. Shows what paying true artists gets you.

Still waiting for season 2.

We must wait patiently, The show took a lot of money for them to make this and even just to make a season at all. Must keep faith and patience.

When the show got cancelled, I made promise to myself to watch the whole season at least once or twice a year. I sometimes even try three times. Maybe Netflix will finally understand what they have when they see how much people watch it.

It is great to see you making Dark Crystal videos again. I agree, it sucks that Age of Resistance didn't get a 2nd season. The Henson company needs to release this show as DVD's and then show Netflix the sales numbers. Or, as I said in a previous comment, the Henson Company just needs to team up with a streaming service that isn't filled with child groomer sympathizers.

On episode 1, YES the scene in the chariot was the most important to the early moments in the show. Brea shows the respect for the Skesis and the interest the Scroll Keeper has for her is great too. Plus the message on how the elites of the world fear the people below them acquiring knowledge. "Gelflings want to be ruled," that GREAT MONOLOGUE from Simon Pegg giving it all he's got in this series

They can't give us Season 2, but they can give us a HORRIBLE Cowboy Bebop. GIVE US SEASON 2!!!!!

Perfectly said, I vehemently agree! This show is a brilliant home run masterpiece of a series! Epic, modern storytelling and world expanding at its best! Flawless imagery, practical effects and techniques, wonderful writing and of course the myth, world and inhabitants of Thra are fleshed out so brilliantly! The voice cast was totally perfect! I think Jim Henson himself would have been proud! Fingers crossed its resurrected and continued somewhere!

Would do anything for a season two

I've missed this show

Dark Crystal deserves to be on the same level of Star Wars in terms of a big franchise and this show plus content from the comics & novels prove how you can easily have plenty of material to adapt and expand on. Raunip potentially showing up in season 2 would've made me so happy because I loved his story in Creation Myths.

I wonder if Age of Resistance will ever get a DVD and or Blu-Ray release. I know Netflix has done it with other stuff they did.

At the end could you do what you would want to see in season two and how it leads directly into the movie? I saw it as a slow burn tragedy. Would love to hear your thoughts on what could’ve been.

I've been watching it again lately (having resubscribed for Stranger Things) and it's just so captivating. It's painful knowing there isn't a second season (yet. I will always be hopeful)

I still remember what introduced me to the dark crystal, it was the odd1sout video about the original movie it always interested me in the world so when the movie was on Netflix I watched it and I loved it so much more so when the show I came out I thought I was dreaming but I stayed up just to watch it and now I can’t stop loving it

Netflix canceled the show because of cost and viewership the first 6 weeks. There was an article about it. Netflix expects every show to get the same immediate viewership as Stranger Things. Dark Crystal did get high numbers but it took longer because of lack of advertising. Heck the show even won an Emmy but they announced the cancelation before the win.

Looking forward to this new series of reviews! Time for a rewatch to follow along!

Yes!!! Dark crystal content!! I’ve been waiting for this!!! So glad you’re doing this!!

OK. I finally broke down and bought a Netflix subscription just to see the series again. Haven't seen it since it first aired years ago. Don't know why I waited so long. Ep 1 was FABULOUS!! Can't wait to see the rest🧚

Ahh. This must be why this show has been on my mind so much. Great to see you!

So glad to see you back, my friend!

i already watched the show 5 times. am i really gonna sit through a revisit of each episode? hell yes

The statement about how this franchise could’ve been the next Lord of the rings, the next Harry Potter is so true. You have been saying that from the beginning and I can’t agree enough. Imagine a world where we had a bunch more seasons of age of resistance, a trilogy of films about the Garthim wars, maybe a movie telling the events of the creation myths. With all this excitement surrounding the dark Crystal the original film would’ve been played in cinemas for the 40 year anniversary which would’ve been an absolutely brilliant experience. If only Netflix had understood what they had.

Have you ever heard, purple man, of the Legacy of Kain? Quite the inspiring story of a video game narrative getting very big, very niche, very cool, and then it had its potential hit a penultimate point, with production issues for a sequel after Defiance. Legacy of Kain is no story of an inherent goodness to life, however it had a strong message about Free Will and about the nature of True Evil. And we got to see a narrative with respect for consistency and authenticity, and the concept of its narrative bringing forth something true to life itself. You have a journey, we all have a journey, and so we'll traverse our paths mutually for a time together.

Since it is a Henson Company project, I think it’s possible for AoR to be picked up by Disney+. Thra knows they have enough money to throw around.

Wait, they fucking cancelled it !?! I’m just starting the show and thought we were getting a season 2 😭

I love this series so sad they cancelled it

TDC: Age of Resistance floored me so hard watching the first episode, it was like whiplash (I hadn't seen the movie at all). I was crying so hard and couldn't comprehend how such a beautiful, riveting show was actually one of the darkest I had ever seen. It made me wish I had been exposed to the movie before. The more I watch AOR the more I come to the conclusion that it is a masterpiece and will be carrying it with me forever. Edit #2: I so agree with you, they had it right there! I think Netflix poured all its hopes and ambitions into the Witcher to be their big fantasy franchise, but it's flopping sadly. It's like Karma.

I misssed ur dark crystal videos🥰

I understand you not making dark crystal content for a while, we are in a dark crystal content drought right now. Just hang in there guys.

Sifan charms sounds dope!

Isn’t there any footage of what they were planning for season 2? Thanks for bringing this series back.

20:05 YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

Just finished re-watching my favourite show, so now I’m going to wash my favourite RU-vidr talk about it 👍👍

Im goin on this jouney with you

This first episode is so beautiful ! This serie is magnificient ! 😍Thank you for your video !! When an streaming plateform pay for a season 2 with this same equip ?? 🤞

Honestly.....this is our Firefly.

If only. . .

Awesomeeeee

I heard it ran into money problems. It was really good too

I wish more people would give this show a chance, I agree that the story is one of the most captivating ever told, unfortunately though people don't appreciate puppetry which is why I believe the show didn't do that well. As well as Netflix's shitty advertising

Age of resistance is returning to Netflix another season is coming

In fairness, the Henson company needs to partner with a streaming service that doesn't have Ge*Petto* material on it. #BoycottNetflix

I'm still nothing 100 but I'm pretty sure all skeksis are men even the beautiful one and the leeky one

Or forget Netflix there's a million other places it's Netflix unwanted dear loss I think that this movie needs to be bought and proposed to somebody else it needs to be advertised like it should be the only reason I spotted it is because I heard something on TV like one time say The dark Crystal and I dropped everything I was doing only because I'm aware The dark Crystal and I went digging and hunting for it but please the emperor and his fingers and food I could not watch the next episode for like two days it literally made me sick close nose leaking I don't give a s*** with that that was like I literally couldn't take it two days I could not watch that was too far take it out cuz if I cannot watch something for 2 days other people will just drop it that's too much LOL but everything else 👑⭐✨🌙💎🔮🚬
