What disturbed me is: I loved the look of this movie, I loved the concept, I loved how it is in tune with the type of fantasy I like - and yet, when I watched it, it was boooring.

wow.. everything you all said: the disrobing, the crumbling master, when the master yells at chamberlain, the eyeball. i was also always bothered by the scene where the skeksis are having their feast.. just grosses me out. of course, it's hard for puppets to "eat" without it all falling out of their mouths and that adds to the glutonous-ness of the scene.. but cookie monster sure made it look cute and not threatening.

"I wish more children's movies would have the bravery to express such things. But now everything is censored, dumbed down. "
Yes to this, so much! Most of the kids' books and movies out there today make me actually sick to my stomach.

The only thing that really disturbed me was the stealing of the essence.
Really creepy.
Oh, and Kira being killed =[
It was dark, but different. I've never seen anything else like it.

Nowadays Augrah's nipples freak me out the most.
When I was a child, the multi-toothed dog creature that jumps out and scares Jen freaked me out.
I'm watching this with my three year old as I'm writing this, and the Beetle creatures freak him out the most by far.

The disrobing of the Chamberlain disturbed me. For one thing, his excessive clothing seemed like a part of his body and it appeared to me (as a very young child) as if they were taking off part of his back. Also, seeing him naked was even grosser than seeing the other gross skeksis fully dressed. He was so skinny and grey.
The other part that bothered me was when Aughra's home was burned. She must've worked very hard to build that contraption that showed the universe. Electricity didn't exist. It must have been powered by pulleys, gravity, or a nearby waterfall. It was sad to see her amazing creation destroyed. I was so glad that Aughra wasn't killed. She needed a bigger part. Her yelling at the Skeksis was an awesome scene! -

I think the most disturbing this is that I was 2 when this came out, watched it on TV when I was 3 and wasn't disturbed by it at all! I thought it was all awesome! lol I still love it and watch it quite a bit, and now I find some parts of it disturbing. What a great movie!
