See, if SkekSil had been smart, he'd have called Trial By High Pitched Scream. He'd have won that talons down.

@@JMObyx oh no. They play to their strengths pretty well in being vicious hedonists. Skek-Sil's strength was subterfuge and playing enemies off against each other. The long con as it were. Not exactly popular if your subjects want results now.

@@Asher_Tye Ah, your grammar implied that the 'his' part was a typo. Maybe to avoid confusion you should say "Skek'Sil's strengths are heavily mitigated by the rest of his kind's impatience."
Challenging the strongest-looking member of their race to a challenge that relies heavily on physical strength; that was his best-foot-forward?

Actually the Ritual Master is skekZok.
That dude going full beast mode on the stone and Chamberlain’s “Oh Shit” look on his face are the best parts of the movie.
it's wierd that this takes place after age of resistance when Skektek Created the Garthim
I hope SkekUng will be in Age Of Resistance and see him butt heads with Chamberlain

Given that the Garthim have now been created and SkekUng's role was "Garthim Master", it's almost certain we'll be seeing him next season.

I like to imagine SkekUng there is too smart for SkekSil’s bullshit and sees through him. He may even suspect he killed SkekVar even if he can’t prove it.
this very scene has two lines i tend to quote a lot. 1: general: chaimberlain! lay down that scepter! 2: chamberlain: hmm. trial by stone. general: trial by stone! (i tend to say the second quote in both english and the original skeksis language) -Sequoyah p.s seeing this film has been a very interesting part of my childhood. :)
Skeksis Garthim Master General: Now Bow Down To Me! I AM EMPEROR!
Es increíble que esta película sea de los 80.

This is awesome
I love this movie
John Goodman will play SkekUng in Dark Crystal Age of Resistance season two ;)

You'd think someone as cunning as the Chamberlain would choose a trial that would not require brute strength. Guess he's not as smart as we thought.

The only voice I can think of is maybe the guy who voiced Beast in the X-Men cartoon, and Rhinox in Beast Wars and Beast Machines, I immediately thought of him with the thought of the Skeksis General being in season 2, just my thoughts, but I don’t know who else they could get that sounds close enough. Although Simon Pegg killed it as the Chamberlain, so who knows who they’ll get, they’ve at least proven their casting choices were perfect for every character.
