I think Steve Martin's the all-time best, but I have a lot of affection for Peter Falk's scene in Caper.

Saw The Hunger Games last night. I'm a big fan of the books and wasn't disappointed!

All I ask is that Kevin Clash is at least asked to come back to voice Splinter (as I imagine this will be all-CGI, no practical effects to speak of, thus no need for him to also puppeteer).

There seems to be a great deal of affection for 80s 'toons in the "Cheat Commandos" series. Well, affection and a large sense of "WHY DID WE WATCH EVER WATCH THESE."

Agreed - even still, what a breadth of material they've got. Homestar remains one of the most impressive anythings on the Internet.

Yay Walter!

I'm extremely disappointed that Piggy didn't pull it out over Gonzo. Gonzo is my favorite character, but... Piggy was just so great in that movie. I feel as though people really are voting on a general basis of of preference of the character, rather than their performance in the movie. Ah, well...

I still watch Homestar on a regular basis.

I love this thread. I took a short break from MC to focus on the play I'm directing, and I come back and see all this, and, just... man, what a great place to be :sing:

I gotcha. And I'm not saying that I think Gonzo should take over in a lead role - just that I'd like to see more of him in the next movie.

Great old Randy Newman tune. Okkervil River has a much more somber take on it:

Doesn't mean Gonzo can't have a bigger part than in The Muppets, where I don't think he had more than a few lines of dialogue.

HOW HAS NO ONE SAID HILDA

Okay. This one just makes me lose it every single time. I don't know why. I think this line could only have happened in The Great Muppet Caper: Kermit: "I think I'll read for a while." *beat* "I wish I had a book."

Blue Man Group. Think about it.

I'm saying that calling someone "a completely terrible person" and "just all and all completely bad" when you don't know them is extreme.

Whatever this movie is, it definitely needs one thing: a LOT more Gonzo. Dave Goelz has been performing Gonzo now than any Muppeteer has with another character, and he's still kicking. Gonzo needs a really fun, WEIRD storyline for this next one.

One of my favorite things is seeing great behind-the-scenes photos from Muppet productions, where we see both the performer and the Muppet. Although I think a lot of people are afraid of seeing that barrier broken, I believe there's even more magic in seeing these folks at work - and I think...

Whatever this movie is - it's gotta be a big adventure in the vein of Caper. What I'v wanted for years is for them to do that It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World remake - with the Muppets. It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Muppet World. Send them on a huge trip around the world.

Thank you for sharing this! So, so cool!
