The world of Thra is dying. The Crystal of Truth is at the heart of Thra, a source of untold power. But it is damaged, corrupted by the evil Skeksis, and a sickness spreads across the land. When three Gelfling uncover the horrific truth behind the power of the Skeksis, an adventure unfolds as the fires of rebellion are lit and an epic battle for the planet begins.

Most anticipated movie (show) of my life. I hope I'm not getting my hopes to high. Love the original, Clash of the Titans, Gremlins and Dark Crystal all time favorites.

Original or remake Clash of the Titans?
