The last word on it is that Henson was going ahead with it even without a confirmed theatrical distribution deal (just yet). That gave fans fears of a straight-to-DVD treatment that just wouldn't do. It appears that's not what Henson wants either. Hey, if they could get a theatrical deal for Mirrormask the Dark Crystal sequel should eventually find one too.
This is getting made. Make no mistake. It's just the caliber of the project that concerns many people. I just don't want this to turn into some Sci-Fi Channel original picture. That’s what the fear really is.
The Henson Company has never been good about communication concerning ongoing projects. From any other company it might mean something, but it probably isn't of significance here either way.
