TODAY’S THE DAY! In just a few hours I’m going to watch The Dark Crystal (1982) for the first time in theaters, for its 40th Anniversary!
This is very exciting to me, because I love The Dark Crystal, and of course The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. I’m thankful for the joy and solace it’s brought to me especially in the low moments of my life when I needed comfort. I relate to these characters and I feel their pain and happiness through the screen. Their lives are full of trials and tribulations too.
I’ll be sure to be back later and let you all know how it went. this might even spark up me writing something for TDC AOR again as well… xx
