    Muppets Christmas Items at Walgreens

    I have a problem. Even though I've kind of sworn off plush and action figures I really want those Kermit plushes for some reason. Especially the Kermit beanie baby.

    Robotic Kermit the Frog in Star Tours

    I would love to see some toy company come out with an actual interactive animatronic Kermit toy. Something like that Elmo Live thing they had a few years back but better because it's Kermit.

    Favorite Disney Movies

    I've only seen it once. I rented it the first time it was released on video sometime in the 90s. If I'm remembering correctly it's actually pretty good.

    Yeah The Black Cauldron doesn't deserve anywhere near the amount of hate it gets.

    Dealing with depression and anxiety

    I may be one of the few people in my age group that doesn't look at the 80s as some kind of golden age simply because I had such a terrible time at school it overshadowed the few happy memories I had of that decade. Having an abusive father didn't help matters any. I would never want to have to...

    Disney in talks to acquire Hasbro

    It might make certain action figure fanboys happy though. A lot of Marvel fans have been worried that since Disney owns Marvel and Mattel does a lot of licensed stuff from Disney that Disney will take away Hasbro's license to make Marvel figures and give it to Mattel. Mattel has a bad track...

    Favorite Disney Movies

    Ah Bravestarr. When I was a kid I was the only one I knew who watched that. Whenever I'd make references to it it would go right over the heads of most of my friends. As for favorite Disney movies I'd say The Lion King, Aladdin, Lady and The Tramp, 101 Dalmations, Wall E, The Hunchback of...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Most figures are overpriced these days. The new TMNT figures were decently priced but since they became popular everyplace has raised prices on them as well. I'm glad I got mine when I did. Chances are if the film makes enough money there'll be a sequel. You said it yourself. They left it open...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Yeah, there's WIR Merchandise. I've been seeing ads for it on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network. It's done by Thinkway which also had the Toy Story licsense at one point.

    I Miss the Munsters :(

    If someone put a gun to my head and forced me to choose between The Addams Family and The Munsters I'd be well and truly screwed. Arguements abound as to which is better but I love them both equally. TVLand had a Munsters Marathon a few Halloweens ago and I watched for hours and one of my...

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    True that. I hated those guys MUCH more than I hated Jar Jar.

    Favorite Kermit Voice Actor? Jim Henson or Steve Whitmire?

    Slackbot summed it up better than I ever could. I'll leave it at that.

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    Considering Brad Bird directed The Iron Giant, one of my favorite animated films of all time, I would absolutely love to see what he'd do with a Star Wars movie.

    Top Ten Favorite Pokemon

    I've never really played Pokemon, but I think if I did I'd really enjoy it. My only real experience with Pokemon was having a couple electronic pet type things. The "I Choose You" Pikachu was an interactive animatronic plush Pikachu. His mouth moved, his cheeks glowed and his ears wiggled. You...

    Family Circus movie (facepalm)

    The only time I seem to see Peanuts merchandise is around Christmas time. CVS usually has tons of Peanuts stuff from November through December.

    Family Circus movie (facepalm)

    I agree with you Drtooth. I'd love a well designed C&H shirt. And there are tons of people who want collector quality action figures. Allowing quality merchandise doesn't cheapen artistic vision. It's when you go the Jim Davis route and start letting them plaster your characters everywhere from...

    Family Circus movie (facepalm)

    I read something about that somewhere but I'm not sure if it was Cracked. Basically since there's no official C&H merchandise for the bootlegs to be taking money away from Watterson can't really legally do anything about them. It's been awhile since I read it so that's an incredibly simplified...

    Family Circus movie (facepalm)

    Those decals make my blood boil every time I see them. I hate seeing anyone's intellectual property exploited like that. I kind of doubt most people who buy those things even know who Calvin is. I have to believe any fan of the source material would refuse to contribute to anyone who would...

    Silly things you said, did, or thought as a kid

    This is probably the dumbest thing I thought as a kid. Once I got a small vinyl poseable figure of Gizmo from the movie Gremlins. I hadn't seen the movie yet so I didn't really know anything about the character, just that I thought it was neat looking. On the box was printed the rules regarding...

    Family Circus movie (facepalm)

    I like Mother Goose and Grimm. I think I have some of the comic strip treasuries around here somewhere. The series was pretty good too if I recall.
