    Bad Guys/Villains we didn't root for

    One more thing on Palpatine...it's amazing how much we love to dislike him, since his actor Ian McDiarmid seems to be such a friendly person! The man who did the original Palpatine voice, Clive Revill, is also super nice, I hear!

    Muppets Trivia

    I tried to find out here: http://creativetimes.blogspot.com/2009/11/fran-brill-first-lady-of-sesame-street.html but I don't know the answer. I would guess she feels proud of that, as she should! Is that the answer?

    Your Thoughts: "The Muppets" Theatrical Film

    Hey now, The Waterhorse and Hugo were both great. Do you really think they're both bad, or is that just a reaction to the negative review of the 2011 Muppet film? As of this writing, it's the only Muppet production that (to me) has moments that aren't so great, but those moments pass by quickly...

    "I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story" documentary in development

    I echo this sentiment 100%! This was such a touching segment of the film, and such beautiful music to go with it perfectly! I look forward to this so much.

    Weirdness Topic

    Revamped versions of songs we all know - and what makes them strange to me is the new lyrics: Indian Thriller - with "fake" lyrics: Indian Thriller - This uploader says these are the real lyrics: Indian Beatles

    Muppet Plushies Wishlist

    Waldo, Lew Zealand, Droop, Uncle Deadly, and Digit for starters! (I'm assuming there aren't any of those!) I would've said Bean Bunny, but I've learned that he was made into a few of those.

    Favorite Muppet

    Lew is one of the best, and I love the Lew picture at the top right: http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Lew_Zealand He's so happy!

    Songs in Movies?

    And yet it's just as amazing as the song that opens the film, and as the performances from Jim Varney, and everything else about the film! :) I bet that song is another part of the humor in that perfect film. I agree it doesn't make sense in regards to the film, but maaaan, is it funny! :D

    The Chipmunks

    I like the song they sing in that link at 7:49 Drtooth! I know it has a little "Twist and Shout" (hence the parody title "Twitch and Writhe") and a little "Do You Love Me" but there's something else in there, too.

    Chowder Fans Unite Here!

    Who were the 4 Fosters characters? I would guess three were Mac, Bloo and Cheese.

    The Chipmunks

    I will be calling the CGI/live action Chipmunks films "the CGI films" for short. Right on! I adore the original series and the 80's/early 90's series, so the CGI films, though good in some ways, still had much I didn't like. I wasn't surprised they "updated" everything to appeal to current...

    Call to all Little Jerry and the Monotones fans

    I guess it didn't show up when I searched because (at the time of this writing) "Little" and "Monotones" aren't tags in the vid - which reminds me to always type "Sesame Street" with the song title, rather than the Sesame musical artist name :) Thanks Oscarfan/MarshalGrover! Though you may not...

    Which performer should get a documentary next?

    All Muppeteers should have a doc about them, and they should all get made right now! :grouchy: Haha. But I sure would love a Jerry Nelson documentary. Bonus materials on the DVD could include videos of him making music - including the videos of those two songs he did in concert that are not on...

    Call to all Little Jerry and the Monotones fans

    Out of all the songs listed at http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Little_Jerry_and_the_Monotones "Rock 'N Roll Star" is the only one I couldn't find on youtube. Is it around somewhere? All others show up with a search except for "When You Move the Mouse" which is here: I sure would love a new...

    The ant and the aardvark

    Yes, it's part of "Pink Panther & Pals" and I like it a lot - the whole show. They changed a few things, and it would have been nice to have John Byner back as the Ant and Aardvark, (no offense to the two new voices) but overall it's true to the original Pink Panther and Ant & Aardvark cartoons...

    Who did Jim puppeteer in Do De Rubber Duck?

    "Do De Rubber Duck" is one of my most favorite SS moments of all time! So many great SS moments...so many great Jim Henson & Friends related moments in general. We're so lucky to be fans of their creations. :)

    Call to all Little Jerry and the Monotones fans

    :sing: Sounds like this: Though it's not as flashy as the version mentioned in the description you gave (I'd love to see that!) it's still really cool. :D Oh yeah! I would love that! What rockin' fun that would be! Wow, so Little Jerry talks in both of those scenes? Are there any clips on...

    "I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story" documentary in development

    Thanks for stopping in to talk to us CopperPot! It's so very wonderful that you're making this film! I am looking forward to it so much, and it's kind of a shame that it can't be a 12 hour film or something, because once you've got all the footage you want together (both newly recorded just for...

    Gremlins Fans

    Love them both 100%. Both achieved different things, being different style movies: GREMLiNS is often quite dark, though it has funny moments too. Both types of moments are strange in the best way. It tells a story with a lot of wonderful atmosphere, including the Jerry Goldsmith score for it...
