hopefully Well, one would think they would do it for the Anniversary release for The Dark Crystal and this newest release for Labyrinth. Just another item to be disappointed with when it comes to these releases. They have a lot to make up for with the next release, if any, before it...

i guess wow. thats a tough question. It really depends on what you want. I think if you went to Best Buy, you would find about 3 different versions of each film. (I have the original DVDs's, the Superbits, and now this mediocre set, and unfortunately missed the collectors editions). I...

eh The 3D effect is neat on the box, but the overall design is fairly ugly. Pretty much for both sets. I'm hoping to squeeze in some time this weekend to hear the audio commentaries. I really hope they get their act together for the 30th anniversary, or whatever release is planned next...

Just the toons No, not the Super Mario Bros movie. Just the saturday morning toons, that were recently released on DVD. Not that that particular set was the standard in "how to put a DVD together" but I certainly expected more from the Henson company. My point was, here was a simple...

I think this guy is generally on the money here. What makes this such a weird release, is its absence of a lot of great material, and options, that are found on "previous" editions. Which doesn't make any sense. I was personally hoping to get rid of my previous copies, to have one...

Labyrinth I wholeheartedly agree with jeffboy on many of the issues concerning this dvd release. Very, very lackluster. Last night I had the opportunity to also pop in the 2nd disc of Labyrinth, and I also found a mixed bag. I don't want to sound overly critical or pesimistic. I am...

Let me see Well, i have to admit, and I'm still chewing at the bit here, but I have not been all that impressed by what I've seen thus far from the Dark Crystal 25th anniversary edition. I have yet to watch the actual film, or listen to the commentary, but I did pop in disc 2 to check out...

That was a good read. thanks for posting. this is the kind of stuff, the memories, the problems, peoples reactions, that has been missing on the current set of home DVD's we have of these movies. If they are going to release new 25th anniversary editions, this is the kind of stuff/interviews...

good well, if that's the case and they are still building up the financing end, that's good. Now, had they announced it or at least updated the fan base with some details, I think that would have been better. I'm not a huge fan of this sequel (though interested to see what happens), but with...

Hmm, I doubt there will be any look at the next film, if indeed it is even happening, due to the lack of news of any kind. I just saw on digitalbits that the dvd's will come with booklets, animation cells, senitype, character sketch-up cards and jim hensons original notes (for the Dark...

Are we sure this film is still in the works? I find it a bit bizarre that we have not seen anything in months, or heard a peep in a long time, yet we are already getting stills/images/clips for movies coming out next year for films like The Dark Knight, and many others. What is going on...

Hmm, I wonder if the image really will be any better then the Superbit DVD's released just a few years ago. Those looked great. Nevertheless, its great to hear they are re-releasing them with added material. I commentary track by Frank Oz, on the Dark Crystal would be gold though. Why he...

sounds great It is nice to hear that this set is alive and well. My only gripe is the release schedule. Surely we will not have to wait five years, for all five seasons? I love the quality and detail they have put into these sets, but a year in between releases is a tad ridiculous.

Yes, exactly. If your going to do a plush doll, its got to look right, and most likely be expensive. If they don't take the time, and are just releasing something that looks or slightly resembles the characters, it turns out like the products above. I guess its a matter of taste. I could...

uh crap sorry, I like that someone out there is starting to re-introduce old product lines, but at the same time, I'm sorry, The Dark Crystal is not "made" for plush lines. Just the very essence of the characters, do not translate to soft, plushy toys. I think they look awful. Good...

hmm well. . . look into the other thread, about Tarkos directing, there are a few opinions there (I've chimed in quite a bit over there). not necessarily about "where' the story will go, but "how" could the story continue. . . I have NO clue where they could go with this, especially since...

Hey a quick brief image of Kira and Jen (head only) are up at this link: http://www.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=23606 nothing too exciting, but regardless, there is something from the movie up. It doesn't surprise me at all that the film won't be seen until 2008.

coincidence wow, I just finished watching the Labirynth (on my 9 ft screen) about 20 minutes ago, and was just thinking about all the symbolism and themes that have been woven into this film. However, it seems there is already a huge discussion about this at the IMDB, so I guess I will head...

Curious Lazlo, I've seen a lot of your work, and you capture the characters profiles and contours extremely well, especially at the scale you are producing them in. I am curious if you are selling any of these? I know they are not "licensed" by Henson (or perhaps they are?) but I was...

hmm well, not too much new there, but it is odd. it seems like a lot of these projects are about 20 years too late. the audience for these films and t.v. series have all grown up. not that today's kids wouldn't be inspired by it. but it just, in some sort of strange way, seens odd to see...
