Simon Pegg : It's nice to see the CG technology used collaboratively with the puppets, so the whole thing feels very true to 'The Dark Crystal'. It is, first and foremost, a puppet-led thing. But there are tiny little things you can do. Like, in the original film, not that it mattered, and not that I cared, and not that it was ever a thing, but, occasionally, you can see a rod now and again, you know? Not that that means, 'Oh, wait a minute, there's a rod, it's not real', you now it's not real, it's a puppet show. You should be able to see all the rods, really. But what they can do now is they can remove that stuff, add blinks, ad little bits and bobs which give them a little bit more life and presence, and just... help a little bit with the magic trick that it is.

Simon Pegg : Particularly when you have as skilled a puppeteer as Warrick, who... who does all those little head moves and stuff, and... you can see how he's talking when you're watching the playback. I've got a lot of help from all over the place, yeah. Warrick's interpretation, his movements. The-the incredible sort of visuals that I'm looking at.
