- Is skekVar the General also in The Dark Crystal film? Was that skekUng in Netflix's Age of Resistance? Am I the only one confused about this? We'll be looking at these two Skeksis and more on today's episode of The Dark Crystal Conjunction.

I did spend the first two episodes thinking he was the same guy actually
same. then arrived at the last episode, i was confused, i started to think that the whole series was a "reboot prequel" of the movie.
Me too... I found a page online that listed every Skesis & every corresponding Mystics name that goes with it after they split from being UrSkeks. After I saw the titles of each, I kinda put two & two together and realized it was a different dude. He DID KINDA look like a younger version of the one from the movie tho...
@@geegarcia7858 true. that's why i also thought that the emperor was the same in the series and the movie.
I thought it was the same guy until the general died.
@@geegarcia7858 They certainly do look sort of similar, but they are a bit different.
No they aren't the same. Totally two different Skeksis. But you can count on SkekUng will make he's appearance soon & Chamberlain will be on high alert.
“HHMMMmmmm”
@@AtaMarKat *"I HATE YOUR WHIMPER!"*
Slaiter “MMMMmmmm...”
@@AtaMarKat *"QUIET!"*
Actually they look very similar
BOLD Gurjin. You mean BOLD Gurjin. 💜
;P
SkekUng has more of a hairier mane of hair on his head with prominent side-burns- a very early 19th British type look, his beak is thinner with a hook end. His mouth has fangs peering out in his upper jaw and has sharpened bony brows. His attire seems like organic with the back ridges extending upwards as an intimidation tactic.
His personality is also very different from SkekVar- SkekUng seems more aware of the political game than SkekVar ever did and while SkekVar seems to be a proud warrior; SkekUng seems like a badly restrained mad dog who’s surprisingly charismatic amongst his peers; but seems more sadistic and violent than SkekVar.
This show was way better than I thought it would be. It exceeded all my expectations. Going to do a second marathon watching soon.
And so he returns to Thra...
Yes, the steady stream of comments and subs I kept getting, even when putting out ZERO new content, plus having opportunity to carve out some time now... there was no way I couldn't. Plus, after the new show I had so much to talk about and there still isn't another place with so many great fans on TH-cam so I want to keep this alive. FOR THRA!
Very happy to see some new vids coming! Feels great to be in thra again.
@@DarkCrystalConjunction Most thankful for that!
No, there are two completely different characters.
In episode 9, they mentioned skekUng by name, and how they should probably summon him along with some other travelling Skeksis to the castle for their war against the gelfling. Not to mention that his facial structure is actually not very similar to that of skekUng upon closer inspection. With that being said, skekVar and skekUng are not at all the same person. At the time skekVar was still alive, skekUng had been away from the castle
Yeah, I remember this as well and chamberlain was like nooooooooooooooooooooooooo to bringing in more Skeksis lol
Yup, nail on the head! (Not in the Heretic manner :P) I should also note you answered that before watching the vid. This is why I love this TH-cam community. By Aughra's eye!
@@5ecretcode Ya, he was dealing with enough drama at that moment :D
@@DarkCrystalConjunction Thanks. ;)
It also explains why skekUng didn't know much about the essense in the movie. By the time he comes back to the castle, the other Skeksis will be out.
I also noticed that SkekVar has big teeth on his lower jaw while SkekUng doesn't
Also skekVar's nostrils are positioned on his beak, while skekUng's are behind his beak. Var's upper-teeth are mostly hidden when his mouth is closed, while Ung's are visible as if he is permanently snarling. The top of Var's head is mostly bald (although we only see this when he removes his helmet) while Ung has more hair on his head.
@@Ozraptor4 His face is a bit skinnier too. And he has more hair on his puppet.
skekUng was mentioned by the master of ceremonies in episode 9 of age of resistance as a strong warrior. Since chamberlin killed the general in the season finale, it's likely that SkekUng will take the generals place and take command of the garthem in the next season, as well as try to take a seat at the emperors side
Now I wanna see a prequel comic of skekung skekvar and skekgra doing stuff together. Two generals and a conquerer! Each one taking on different titles of which include garthim master, ambassador and heretic. I don’t know it seems similar enough to be interesting!
I'd sub to that instantly! So much storytelling potential.
Doubt it. It is likely that not all Skeksis live in the castle. SkekNa and SkekShod from the movie has not appeared either. It is possible that the 3 missing skeksis lives in a residence somewhere else. There should also be two more skeksis somewhere out there.
This is why everyone is sort of wondering what his role is, why he is away?
I think the greatest skeksi warrior is Skekmal the hunter. He is the fastest and most active of all of them.
Plasmazing ' it can’t be, since he is gone later.
I mean it’s not really a contest based on what we’ve seen, he could probably take on all of the other Skeksis combined.
Thank you for returning with more vids!!!!❤️
The answer should be blatantly obvious to people if they're truly paying attention.
Agreed, I fear the attention span of most is sadly lacking these days.
Hi, Would you explain in a video why at the end of the series, the Gelfing and Aughra told the Skeksis to retreat back to the castle? I was confused about why they seemed happy with that option since they knew the Skesis would still have control of the crystal and could keep harming and experimenting on it. Thanks!
They thought they could win a war against them. Because while they are considerably stronger 1 to 1 against gelfling and Arathim, they would be 10 against an army of the entire gelfling race. They would likely have no problem winning if not for the Garthim
They were expecting a spanking, and spanked them instead, with 3skekses dead. Of course they are happy
I never agreed with that decision either, should have finished them when they had the chance, bu that is not the Gelfling way. You have to understand that the Gelfling are innocent and mostly docile and very gentle natured creatures, I would even describe their warriors as "soft".
So they assumed the Skeksis would go back to their castle and just remain there and accept their defeat, but as we all know, that is not how the Skeksis are.
Atleast thats how I see how and why they made that choice.
@@toradora1439 the way i see it, skeses are bigger, stronger and faster than gelfling, so if they decide to run, the gelfling can not hope to outrun them. I mean think about skekmal...that dude was fast af
@@romualdcaffeserre6230 Yes, (SPOILER ALERT) but at thr end of AoR the 7 Gelfling tribes, as well as the Aracnids (cant remember their name) and Ahgrah have the chance to destroy almost all of the Skeksis, but opt not to do so. Rather they just allow them to retreat back to their castle and escape.
Here's a question I'd like answered.
Aughra clearly distrusts the Skeksis in Creation Myths, but it is established in AOR that she entrusted them with the Crystal. I wonder if this is in reference to the fact that in CM volume 2 Aughra mentions losing her faculties after the crystal cracks:
"A hole grows inside of me. I felt the Crystal crack in my very heart. Where once was great knowledge. Like smoke. It slips away."
Could the cracking of the crystal have given her Alzheimer's-like symptoms, and she simply forgot that the Skeksis were evil?
Creation Myths also makes the point time and time again that there are some things she is blind to. Raunip could see things from a very different perspective, probably cause he was a little more on the malicious side in his younger years. It definitely does seem like Aughra forgets things and especially when distracted by the stars (not to mention when she begins astral projection).
I don't think so, I believe this is just something they (the producers) changer for the sake of the story. It's not true to canon in many, many details. Also, they said the skeksis gave Aughra the observatory, when in fact it was the Urskeks, many many maaaany thrines ago, whey they first appeared.
@@MrsBestiaAzul Aughra also did mention to the skeksis that they arent anything like they were when she entrusted the crystal to them so i wonder if she actually entrusted it to them while they were still urskeks
@@boyzing That's true. She entrusted the crystal to the urskeks! And sure enough, they ate nothing like the skeksis.
@@MrsBestiaAzul That is a distortion by the Myth Speaker. SkekGra later clarifies that it was the urSkeks who built the observatory.
I knew the Age of Resistance General was skekVar this whole time and fans were completely wrong that he was skekUng. When season 2 is announced, I look forward to seeing skekUng with Andy Serkis or Clancy Brown providing his loud, commanding voice.
The original is stil alive i think..
@@easygrin1127 And he has apparently said that he would be happy to return. I guess I would have to hear him to decide which would be best.
And what about Tim Curry?
@@tysargent9647 He's too old and it's the same problems.
Then what about Jeffrey Tambor?
What I really want to know is what was skekUng's title during the lifetime of skekVar as General?
Thanks to the show, the Garthim didn't exist until after skekVar died and they used Gelfling as Warriors. My believe is he was title the Warrior, based on the conversations the Skeksis have in Ep.8 to call the rest of their number back to the castle, or he took the title of Conqueror after skekGra was banished.
I think it would make more sense to call him the Ambassador. It would explain why he's been away. Plus, as this pointed out, he was still pretty brutal.
YOUR ALIVE YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Long story short, no. He's a different character. He's mentioned to have been away from the castle during the events of the the series.
SkekUng is my favorite and he better be in season 2! AND HIS VOICE BETTER BE THE SAME!!
I HATE YOUR WHIMPER!
Keep up the videos! I'm so glad to see someone diving into such an underrated Jim Henson classic, and the addition of a new series.
Edit: I'd love to see a video on the Heretic and the Wanderer
In the movie, SkekUng is The General in the end credits. This is where most of the confusion comes from.
Indeed, I pinned that info here with screenshots. He is also called "General" several times in the film: th-cam.com/video/KAgEUYpR_RI/w-d-xo.html&lc=Ugyab-Ce6Dh0anhSXYt4AaABAg
Sir! You never cease to amaze me! It is an authentic privilege to learn this much about Skeksis, Gelflings, Aughra, Thra! Thank you very much and greetings from Mexico City.
So glad your back! 🤗
glad you're making content dude!
Dude I'm just glad this channel isn't dead. So nice to have the conjunction back.
Just found your channel today and I'm so happy to find a source for this wonderful fantasy that has a place in my heart. Really hope you continue to make vids and for the new Netflix prequel perhaps because its hard to find good informative vids. Jim Henson films have always been special to me and its wonderful to see his visions and imaginations embraced. Thank you for the vids look forward to more!
I plan to make more. Feel free to check out all the ones I've done,... no shortage of info :)
oh holy shit welcome back dude! This is your time to shine!
I just figured the Skeksis were running by Empire Strikes Back rules and every important person is a General by default
1:22
Gurjin: WHY DOES EVERYONE JUST KEEP CALLING ME "GURJIN"?! /rage quit/
:,D
I wonder what SkekUng's title is... before Garthim Master i mean, "The Warrior"?
That is the same question I have now.
I assume the same, but also the Conqueror: taking the title from skekGra following his fall from grace and banishment.
The novelization says that the Garthim Master has been forever the Garthim Master. He's never taken another name, unlike some other skeksis.
@@MrsBestiaAzul How can he be the Garthim Master, if none existed at the time?
The thing is... They were meant to exist way earlier, based on the novel.
It’s so good to see you return! I always stayed subscribed, because I knew you’d eventually find your way back when you had a bit more time for it. Even if the videos are going to be just you talking to the camera, they would be worthwhile! Nobody does fancy editing like you do, your previous videos were outstanding. However, even if they had to be scaled down, they’re worth making!
Truly appreciate it. I am trying to make it work out as best with what I have,... and the perfectionist in me makes me want to keep bumping up the quality, I just gotta make it work with a decade old Mac. :D
The Dark Crystal Conjunction I can definitely feel your perfectionist side coming through. I use a mid-2010 Mac Pro. I’ve given it some upgrades over the years but it’s never given me a bit of trouble. Next thing to upgrade should be a video card that can use metal, but other than that she’s good as gold. I bought it new hoping it would last me ten years like my old mirror drive door G4 tower did.
What do you use?
Please talk about The Hunter and The Archer and Augrah as the next topic!!!! I have so many questions. Why did the Archer disappear when falling to his death? Was he going back to Thra? (the skeksis, and by reason the mystics, can’t cause they aren’t part of Thra, but Augrah was involved...) Was that the moment he was reunited as one with the Hunter? How did that happen mid fall? How did their deaths result in Augrah’s rebirth? I haven’t seen these moments talked about.
I would also like more info about The Heretic and the Wander’s background, if there is any past what they give in the series. I haven’t read any of the books, so I don’t have info from those sources yet.
I got the same questions! With all the works we currently have out there is no newer info, so it would all be conjecture. But we got three new books coming out in November, two specifically on Age of Resistance, so once I get my hands on those I'll be digging for answers. :)
I got a romantic vibe between archer and aughra, she even called the hunter the most beautiful skeksi
I'm glad your back hope you have everything straightened out now
I don't think he is as there's also 2 skekis missing in the first series the slave keeper and another one I think the movie general is with them
You’re right. skekNa (Slavemaster) and skekShod (Treasurer) from the, movie has yet to appear in the prequel. It’s likely that not all skekSis live in the castle. I believe that skekEkt (Ornamentalist) was not present during the first episodes but arrived later. It’s possible that the 3 missing skeksis from the movie lives in some other residence in Thra.
@@magnus5918 or out traveling thra its possible we see them in series 2 the gathem wars
martin lynn Hope so. It would suck if we wouldn’t get to see how they were like.
@@martinlynn4733 if season 2 is Garthim Wars then they gotta have the Garthim-Master!
@@DarkCrystalConjunction and thats were the general comes in
yey! so glad u made a new video! 😸
Welcome back! Keep up the videos finally someone that is getting information right other TH-cam channels in their ending explained say Skekvar is the same as skekUng but I knew it wasn’t and that he will be coming back in the next season which is also false love the videos please don’t stop! Keep it up for Thra!
you remind me of ‘the star wars theory.’ Dead informative and well spoken. Thanks for clearing this up 👍🏻
This confused me so much I thought that he just looked a little different since he had a helmet on for the majority of the show, but when I saw him without it on he looked a lot different. Thanks for clearing this up.
Thank you. I was wondering about this. Please keep making videos, at least from time to time.
My pleasure. I plan to.
I'm glad I'm not the only one wondering this! Thanks for clarifying!
I thought it was the same guy until literally just now.
TIME FOR A REWATCH! WOOOOOHOOOOOOO!
i Found your channel today , i love it
Happy to have y'all along!
Enjoy exploring Thra with this wonderful TH-cam community.
Thanks for clearing this up, and great video.
- If I may ask, what is the info of the Gruenaks ?
did they fight Gelflings in wars and why did the Skeksis exterminate (or try to ) the Gruenaks ?
You are very very welcome. I have the same questions about their past, they are completely new from the series, but as you heard they definitely have some history. I hope we get some info on them in the upcoming "A Guide to the Characters of The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance" dropping in Nov. If we do you can be sure I'll highlight them. They broke my little Gelfling heart :( 💔
I'm so happy I saw how recent this upload is, I found this channel when I found my fellow dark crystal lovers on TH-cam and I was kinda sad as it seemed like I came across another dead channel I liked.
Hey, if they can bring skekMal & Aughra back, then why not this channel!?!? Must be vliyaya. ;P
And is the Gelfling species aside from Jen & Kira completely extinct ?
I wondered because I’ve heard of a ova or something like that featuring an older Jen & Kira ruling over a Gelfling civilization ,but how’d they get all the other Gelflings ?
That happens in the sequel, which came out in comic book form. On the timeline, note that it says "Jen & Kira restore the Gelfling across Thra". The comic doesn't show you how they do that (was it Adam and Eve style, cause the film does say Jen is the last of his kind, then surprise, there is Kira!) makes you wonder... I explain that series briefly, with no spoiler here: th-cam.com/video/H8Kv63cj_n4/w-d-xo.html
The Dark Crystal Conjunction thanks !
You're back!! Yes!!! Plus this has been a huge question in our house and you have settled a lot of debate. Thank you sir. Not gonna lie, i was the one wrong here... don't tell my wife lol
:D
1) An army can have more than 1 general.
2) SkekVar is the General while SkekUng is the Cooler General.
I love them both
Thanks for sharing love movie it's great that guy's bringing it back!.
Great vid, with out the brian froud books I would have had a similar thought, keep the vids coming
The woman skeksis mentions in the throne room to get the others back to the castle.
I like how furry SkekUng is.
SkekUng is my favorite Skeksis! I can't wait to see him in Season 2! Woohoo! :D
Skeung is going tear a part season 2 when he comes.
Thank you for the clarification
SkekUng will go from Torturer, to General, to Gathim Master, to Emperor. The only Skeksis who had the most development in terms of job title.
If there were s season 2, The Emperor would promote SkekUng to general. I can also see SkekUng suspecting that SkekSil had something to do with SkekVars death, but doesn't have any proof. So he will keep is hey on SkekSil, and make sure he doesn't try anything sneaky.
Very helpful, thank you
skekUng is mentioned in the show too when they are talking about the 4 Skeksis outside of the caste: skekSa, skekNa, skekUng, + skekLi.
Good to see you back😊 I hope you share your thoughts about the show too
i really want to see skekUng in age of resistance, maybe next season
Ya, I'd love to see him in a more warrior type role, dawning some epic battle armor, leading the Garthim! www.deviantart.com/bmacsmith/art/skekUng-The-Garthim-Master-502734417
Where was SkekUng in this season? He should of been on the show
@@PhoenixPhire22 he isnt in season 1, which really sucks as i would have loved to have seen him
@@DarkCrystalConjunction and if next season is the garthim wars, then would be the perfect time to introduce him!
I knew it wasn’t SkekUng when the General didn’t put his hands on his hips and grunt. Anyway, great video!
Thank you for explaining. Personally, I always knew SkekVar and SkekUng were completely different Skeksis, but I can understand how some fans may be confused.
It’s interesting how similar SkekUng is to SkekVar. They are both very (yet fittingly) opposite to their UrRu Counterparts: UrIm the Healer is SkekUng’s counterpart, and SkekVar’s counterpart is UrMa the Peacemaker. It’s interesting that both generals love to shed blood, while their counterparts try to heal and bring peace. Both pairs are a perfect representation of light and dark balance.
I know most of the UrRu/Skeksis pairs are very and fittingly opposite, but it’s almost ironic in the case of these two.
The only pair that is very opposite but not fittingly so is SkekNa with UrNol. Their counterpart relation is perhaps the most interesting, given that their roles as a Slave Master and an Herb Tender have absolutely nothing to do with each other, opposite or otherwise.
There truly is a channel for everything..
I've been thinking about this and given skekUng's size in the movie, that is going to be one massive puppet.
You asked about the feathers (or whatever they are) moving on their backs. In the film, when the Chamberlain is disrobed, there is a quick shot of him where you can see little arms curled up on his back. Even though the Skeksis don't seem to use their secondary arms (except for the Hunter), perhaps their costumes are constructed in a way that permits their secondary arms to manipulate them. Maybe those little arms pull handles and cause the costumes to move like a peacock's tail feathers.
Ya, that very well could be. It is mentioned elsewhere that since they kept decorating themselves with more and more robes they made their other pair of arms atrophy, basically. The hunter could care less about that and he obliviously stays in better shape and dresses more practically for THE HUNT! Also, if you look at Creation Myths you can see young Skeksis with all arms nice and limber.
I legit thought they were the same character, they both had a hatred for SkekSil so . Confusing af but I eventually figured it out .
SkekGra must have been the original General as he used to have the title of "Conqueror"
It seems like the Skeksis had multiple Skeksis in military roles, which is why it was so easy to exile skekGra while Skeksis who aren't so easy to replace, like the Scientist, are just sort of beaten into staying. Someone was also probably happy to take his job.
Also seems to be a cast system in place. Those who are Keepers of the Crystal and then everyone else and then exiles.
@@vgernyc I'm not sure it's a true caste system so much as it is one based around specific jobs. But yes, I was rather surprised to see such a division between all of the Skeksis.
He’s back!
Glad I found your channel. Finished the show and have a serious void to fill.
You showed a model during the video. Where is that from? I’m looking to start a Dark Crystals collection.
What is the time mark? There are some out from Weta Workshop now,... I will actually talk more about them in the news round up that will either come out later today or early tomorrow.
My question would be if Netflix grants a season 2 of the Dark Crystal. Based on the information you've to examine from the books and movie. How do you see the two worlds leading into the other or will they remain slightly separate rendition of the same world? Because in the series the Skeksis have been reduced from the count in the movie. Augura in the series knows very well what's going on and is on the side of the Gefling in this war versus her position in the movie. I'm wondering how they or if they will flush out connecting the movie to the series. I hope we can learn a bit more about where the UrSkek come from and what authority banished them?
Maybe do a character lore of skekmal? He's my favorite UuU
THANK YOU for explaining to me why everyone got the two confused. To me, they don't look anything alike. I actually heard someone create a theory about how SkekVar will come back from the dead to become emperor in the movie, and I facepalmed so hard.
More facts that didn't make the vid. In the film skekUng is called "General" thrice, (even shown in subtitles.) End credits say "General (Garthim Master), and the callsheet just has "General"! :D Pics: twitter.com/DarkCrystalConj/status/1174690871469588483
Info from @the_darkcrystalproject on Instragram & @NathanTaylor
Question for you...Regarding the original movie, was the puppeteer performer Swee Lim's Mystic character retconned after the movie to then become the Mystic Herbalist named UrNol? Because as I watched the movie credits rolling, I saw the character named "Hunter" under the list of Mystics. [Whaat?? Not a Skeksis?] I researched the performer Swee Lim online... sources all state he was the Herbalist, even though the movie credits show his name next to the character "Hunter". Was there ever a "Mystic Hunter" in supplemental books? Or was it only in the Dark Crystal movie rolling credits? BTW, I thought the Skeksis Hunter character in AoR was fantastic! Just wondering about the name changes from movie to series. Great vid here about the General(s)
Trivia fact...original Podling and Kira language was Russian or another Eastern European language. Since I know Serbo-Croatian I could understand Kira saying "sit" and "be good" to the Fizzgig. As well as "Thank you" at the Podling tavern. The show, however, uses some gibberish.
During the Trial by Stone scene the Skeksis in the background can be heard referring to SkekUng as "general". "General's really mad now" and SkekAyuk says something like "The general's the champion!".
@@vl1006 That is the only place that urRu is listed as "Hunter", they changed it to "Herbalist" as they felt the prior name was too aggressive for an urRu. (That info via @the_darkcrystalproject as well)
No it's not the same one eventually he'll show up in season 2 when he becomes the garthim Master
To all of you hardcore Muppet fans. Look very close at SkekSil the Chamberlain. Look closely at his facial features. He looks like Grover Monster of Sesame Street, and sounds a lot like Grover too!
I am hoping for a season two of DC: AOR and definitely going that SkekUng will make his appearance then!
there isn't coming an s2 :'(
HE'S BACK!!!
I noticed SkekVar's puppet doesn't look detailed as the rest of the Skeksis. Perhaps because he wasn't going to live into future seasons and he was just a character to build up tension with chamberlain and ultimately to his demise. SkekVar's brutality is setting the bar low and when SkekUng appears, we will probably feel as though killing SkekVar was a bad decision
The thing that raises up on their back when they're wearing their heavy robes or armor is their second set of arms. Unlike the Mystics (The UrDu) the Skeksis' secondary arms are smaller and somewhat weaker, and only the Hunter really uses them on a regular basis.
I'll have to look at that closer,... looks like several pieces (more than two more arms) raise... hm,.... but I could definitely see that those play a part.
I was confused until realizing htye're not the same... It was a plot twist I didn't expect because I wasn't aware during the series they were not the same general I was all the time ohhh that will be the future emperor.
I would be interested to see some flashback scenes with skekUng and skekVar. Perhaps skekUng’s hatred for Chamberlain comes from his respect for his fallen comrade?
Ah ya, that is a cool idea!
I totally thought it was the same character right till the moment he was killed.
They definitely left things like this for future seasons. I suspect this will be a 3-5 season show.
I'd suggest the rising along the backs of the Skeksis when angered are probably there quills rising beneath there clothes, I seem to recall the chamberlain had a row of them along his back and shoulders when he was disrobed.
Ah good point, he did, ya I could see that. Definitely something akin to when animals make themselves look bigger to be more threatening.
Would be Cool if they did a Sequel to the First Film where the Gelflings become corrupt from the power of the crystal and have been watching over it for years and have the Skeksis come back as the Good Guys. Would be interesting to see what they looked like not corrupted. Just something for Hensons to think on and seeing the Gelflings evil forms would be really cool to see.
I at first thought they must have been different skeksis, but then just thought there was a poor execution with its design or something, because I remember the general being a little less oafish in the movie. It made for an interesting subversion in the show, though, when the general meets his fate. Didn’t see it coming, but realized I must have been right the first time: it’s a different skeksis.
I believe the Emperor even mentioned SkekUng by name about him being away and returning to the castle.
I talk about that @ 6:14
Watch the last episode to answer the question.
One day you should do a video about the Urskeks and why they ended up split apart.
I will get to that point in Thra's history soon. I up to Raunip so almost there.
Here's a question to explore, one that's been bugging me for a while now. Where did the two False Shards come from. As I understand it, it has been hinted or stated that the Skeksis made the decoys to fluster anyone looking, and if so we can probably blame skekEkt for making two perfect replicas. Anyhow, I just hope a Season Two does happen, and answers these questions and more.
Short answer is there was a crystal chamber where the original shard fell into and Aughra and her son, Raunip, spend a long time looking for it and just wind up grabbing a whole bunch that may match. Creation Myths vol. III shows this. But there is still lots of story to tell, cause how to SkekGra & urGoh get it to forge that sword!? Then how does it wind up back in Aughra's observatory. :Questions questions, too many questions!" - Aughra :D
I think it very big of u to admit your mistake. I also got confused. Great video.
They do look alike, I thought it was the Skeksis that becomes the new emperor or the hunter was him, but since they both turned to dust.
I was wondering the same thing since I saw the first trailer
cant wait to see the general return that dude split stone in half he hit it so hard the stone glowed red hot from the sheer force of the impact
That should totally be his title... "SkekUng the dude split stone in half he hit it so hard the stone glowed red hot from the sheer force of the impact" :D
In his prime SkekUng must have been utterly terrifying.
I thought you quit youtube, but good video.
I did, didn't think I could come back but I am now able to carve out some time.
It's quite interesting that the skeksis in age of resistance are the political ones than the more violent ones. Hinting that skekung and others like him were banished to make the skeksis look more divine to the gelflings and other 'lesser creatures'. When you think about it skekvar is a glorified security guard for the emperor. That's my opinion.
Can you do a comparison of all the skeksis movie vs show?
How about the URRU walking sticks because I can not tell which bunlogs to a URRU
No because in one of the last episodes one of the skeksis say to the leader we have to tell it to the other skeksis the lead said no skekung is good for fights and the general dies in last episode but the leader in the move and serie are the same
