So a theatre near me just showed the film and everyone coming out of it seems to love it. Yet for me, I found it to be... OK? Let me explain.
-The puppetry and set design was top notch. Henson and associates busted their balls and it SHOWS.
-Bowie and his acting chops bulged through the scenery, But the songs were just... hit and miss. Dance magic dance was good, but the other ones were a bit more forgettable.
-The main human seemed to be a bit of a whiny type, but became better later on. Standard hero's journey stuff. It feels like it's all a metaphor for growing up, but maybe i'm looking at it wrong? I'd love to know the theorys behind her character.
-Ludo>Hoggle>Fox Guard thing.
I'm thinking that it's a film more for the eyes and ears than just a deep piece, but maybe i'm wrong? I'd love to hear Era's thoughts on it all.

bulge jokes may start... now.
