As much as I love SkekGra, and he's my favorite Skeksis... I have to admit that there was a time he was just as bad. Even though he's never been a parasite, as The Conqueror he would have been technically a murderer (as he confesses himself) and a thief in stealing land. V_V
In the end.. The Emperor was a very fragile being, a creature so afraid of the End, filled with terror and suffering, that he trembled up the very idea of dying..
True Isaacs really played a good villain that's both funny and very threatening and basically controls evil incarnate the darkening and is falling apart literally
Actually, he looked more like dessicated chunks of flesh when he died. Afterwards, the other Skeksis gathered up his bits and pieces and cremated them, so in a way the emperor became more ash than dust. Still, it's all particulate matter, so I guess I'm just splitting hairs! 😄
I know the scene but now I'm hearing it in my head he said it with the same venomous passion is the best way I can put it it's freaking perfect I wish they didn't have to cancel from what I know it's not cancelled indefinitely but Netflix isn't going to throw money at it for a while given the coronavirus and all that they just couldn't give the time on when it would be back hopefully they can get out of their contracts and find a different streaming service if that is the case

0:18 SkekSo is in some ways Lord Voldemort, he’s so afraid of death and dying that he will do anything in his power to stay alive, but ultimately fails.
He was also D. J., the doctor character in Event Horizon. He was a sympathetic good guy in that movie, and he ended up getting gutted and strung up over an operating table. Nasty!
He's possibly most well known for his role as Lucius Malfoy from Harry Potter. Another role he played was The Judge from another Netflix series, Castlevania.
And Mark Hamill, who plays skekTek in the show, played the Fire Lord from Avatar. It's funny- the two shows they share have almost complete role reversals, with Hamill being Isaacs' ruthless master in Avatar, and with Isaac's being that for Hamill in AoR.
He was also Dick Dastardly in Scoob!, which, in my own opinion, I find the best role he’s done along aside Travington, Lucius Malfoy, Captain Hook and SkekSo.
well don't give me wrong about this. at least he won' be blown up into chunks of meat as Skeklach had. Because of him on his bed melting, that will be gross.
Aughura: you will be dust !! Another one bites the dust Another one bites the dust And another one gone and another one gone Another one bites the dust Hey I'm gonna get you too Another one bites the dust
When Aughra says her line, I thought she may have broken the fourth wall a bit, saying the message by warning us that we as humans are a doomed race if we don’t take good care of our planet.
We are parasites cause we're not native in all of those continents and neither the tamed animals we brought just like the skeksis are not native to Thra and thieves cause we cheat by surviving with technology and trade and by stealing the environment of other animals and plants

Dark Crystal and MCU crossover. Interesting. As it is, the Dark Crystal comics were published by Marvel, so there is some small connection there already.
