    Here’s the thing: So many people I’ve talked to watched the movie when they were young, and now, of course, feel intense nostalgia. But for me, I never watched the movie as a kid and only discovered it now. The thing is, this music is so phenomenal, so magical that it feels like I’ve known this music all my life. It’s truly incredible.

      You don't give the movie the credit it deserves. You need to understand the movie is all about bringing goodness over evil. It takes someone that believes in this apparently you do not. The music does not work without the whole movie is spreading it throughout.

      Indeed it is underrated and definitely Henson's masterpiece and alot better than Labyrinth! i mean don't get me wrong i like Labyrinth but it just felt too damned 80's sometimes while this has a timeless quality to it and a better score that doesnt sound like Carpenter rip off like Labyrinth's score

    Beautiful! The choir is a superb addition. My one complaint is how little of the actual score is used. Indeed, I would have very much liked to have heard the original version of the finale (when the castle collapses). I remember watching the original cut, and that sequence had a much more mournful, melancholy tune than in the theatrical version.

    Saddnes me that Age of Resistance makes so little use of the original score, not utilising leitmotifs or any musical hintings except for the opening scene with the title.
    Music is good in AoR but to me, "speak for the dead" is the only piece that sounds truly connected to the OG Dark Crystal. Very much in line with the Gelfling love duet piece.

Among other wonderful scores from Jones, don't miss "Excalibur" "Runaway Train" or "Angel Heart" The golden 80's! The last era of movie music geniuses. Pity the sound is so low on this video.
