    Muppet Wizard of Oz to film in September

    Yeah i bet Ashanti wrote it. She'll probably be puppeteering the entire Muppet cast while acting as well! :p

    Jim Henson figure box revealed

    It will be sold at www.palisadesdirectstore.com and probably at an upcoming Henson Legacy event in New York.

    Jim Henson figure box revealed

    No, it's a more premium price figure i think. In the UK it's being sold for much higher than Superbeaker and just less than the backstage. I would guess for the USA you are looking at a price around $20. These are apparently fairly limited.

    Happy Birthday Luke

    Well at this stage a light thwacking with the rubber chicken might be appropriate, just enough to knock some sense into them but not enough to hamper the release of Season 2.

    Happy Birthday Luke

    Yeah that was actually the 11th show, "Strangers In The Night" was actually broadcast second.

    Happy Birthday Luke

    The whole thing is magnificent, lovely remastered sound and video. The unseen pilot is cool because it actually is majorly different from the one that made it to TV. The best thing about the extras is the original menus, as you go to choose which show you want to watch ALF comes on and does a...

    Muppet Wizard of Oz to film in September

    I reckon they'll just stick Kermit in a scarecrow costume - brand recognisability when it comes to merchandise and future products etc etc. I could see them doing something funky with Gonzo though. I agree, Fozzie is great as the lion - very glad they stuck with that.

    Muppet Wizard of Oz to film in September

    I'm mixed on it. I don't like the way they are really going to modernise the actual plot, but it was expected. Ashanti is credbile, so i'm sure seeing as they would have paid up for her to do this kinda stuff we'll be hearing a LOT of her, i'd rather hear our Muppets the most. I am liking the...

    Muppet Wizard of Oz to film in September

    I don't think Portman was ever really a feasible choice. She probably made a wishlist but sounds more like internet rumor that just picked up steam. I can't believe there hasn't been more reaction to this, the Palisades board is jumping with erm pretty much disgust at the news.

    Ashanti, Tarantino Off to See Muppets in 'Oz' By Nellie Andreeva LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - R&B singer Ashanti and director Quentin Tarantino are set to star in ABC's original movie tentatively titled "The Muppets' Wizard of Oz." Queen Latifah, meanwhile, is in final...

    Muppet Wizard of Oz to film in September

    I would have liked them to have opted for an unknown too. Now the Muppets belong to them it makes more sense to me if they let them shine out as the star names more than anyone else, but with celebrity cameos in minor roles of course. Edit - Looks like Ashanti has been chosen to play...

    How many Visitors Served?

    I was thinking about that the other day. To add to all this, if the totals are available, approx how many people listen to MC radio and what are their favorite songs, and if there's still a tally (not sure there is) how many ecards have been sent now? All interesting stuff!

    Muppet Wizard of Oz to film in September

    I wouldn't put too much faith in rumors from that source myself. I think Jim's probably aiming to go through the entire Hollywood teen actress stable so he actually ends up getting it right for once. :halo:

    How to Audition for the Muppets

    Just to clarify - it IS Henson that you want to contact, not Disney. They will be making the shows for Disney and supplying the puppeteering talent. I believe Kevin Clash is a good person to write to.
