This is the only movie I take notes on all the stuff I’ve noticed for the first time. Again, I’ve seen this movie approximately 8 million times and still find new stuff in it. Cut if you don’t want spoilers for a thirty year old movie.
-The Garthim Master has these really cool spines that stand up when he’s really pissed.
-The handles of the swords are anodised gold, you can see the little rainbows.
-The Ritual master has these super long teeth on his lower jaw? like, how does he eat with those? Ouch.
-Skeksil also has spines, but they don’t move?
-Wow, under their robes the Skeksis have these super tiny extra hands. It’s like how the UrRu have four arms but theirs are vestigial.
-When I’m a hundred I hope I can wear awesome red dresses and no bra.
-This isn’t a new point but again- how the fuck did they make that orrery? I want a fucking map of everything that’s represented there. Just the most epic WTF.
-I swear that little ‘I know’ from Jen when realising how to tell the crystals apart wasn’t there in the VHS copy I used to watch?
-Jen’s ears move and it’s adorable.
-The trees breathe.
-Both Jen and Kira have blue streaks in their hair?
- I never realised the nebrie has babies.
-aaand we immediately see one dead and roasted. I can see the editors have the same sense of humor as my brother.
-’Got something stuck in my teeth’ LOL.
- The Ornamentalist showing proper table manners.
-Skekung: ‘I’m a thousand years old and I can blow bubbles if I damn well want to!’
-Skekzok: *disapproval intensifies*
-Did Aughra just steal that silver jug thing? Bet there was booze in it.
-I love how the world isn’t hostile or friendly, it just is.
-The garthim need to learn about this amazing new invention called doors.
-Fizzgig eats moss, apparently.
- I love how since this is technically another language, Skeksil is really bad at speaking Gelfling. He probably hasn’t needed to use it for centuries. Bit of a dead language.
- How did Skeksil get to the castle so quickly? Did he hitch a ride on a garthim or did he have his super new carriage tucked away somewhere?
-Kira has what look like burn marks or scars on her legs, she mentions remembering fire in the dream fasting sequence so maybe it’s from that. THE LEVEL OF DETAIL IN THIS THING PEOPLE.
-Anyone saying Kira using her wings is random can suck ass, we see Gelflings with wings on the prophecy wall.
-I love the random rubbish strewn around the bottom of the moat thing around the castle. They even bothered to think up fantasy rubbish. Guess the Skeksis aren’t really big on recycling.
- All the background talking isn’t people just going ‘watermelon, cantaloupe’, it’s actual relevant dialogue, it’s just- there, and we aren’t even meant to be paying attention to it.
-Skektek has bits of metal nailed into his face? Okay dude.
- I fucking loled at the moment Skekzok pulls a knife out of fucking nowhere, and Skekung is right next to him and does this massive double take like ‘… you had this thing on you this whole time? Were you going to tell me about it at any point?’
-Skektek doesn’t quite get the whole whispering thing. He’s the guy who gets you to lean in and bellows everything at the top of his voice. Maybe he’s deaf and wants everyone else to be too.
-I’m beginning to feel sorry for Skekung, he’s probably really regretting volunteering for the Emperor position.
-Why were all of the Skeksis so eager to drain Kira? It’s not like they were going to get any. Maybe they do kinda care for each other? Just a little bit?
- The Garthim apparently like to relax with a fun game of volleyball. Unfortunately games are on hold since the last victor ate the ball in their excitement. Thankfully, a substitute has turned up…
-That lava shaft must make for a great central heating system.
- Is Aughra really just stealing everything not nailed down?
