A long awaited planetary alignment finally brings The Dark Crystal to Blu-ray…
Them having to turn their entire upper body to look behind is awkward and, unsurprisingly, Muppet-like.
ButDark Crystalproved that it was an entirely practical premise given the immense talent of the Henson people.
So how well doesThe Dark Crystaltransfer to high definition?
My reaction to the sound is that its wonderful in places and somewhat strained in others.
Overall, I enjoyed revisitingThe Dark Crystalas its some considerable time since Ive seen it on TV.
