Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
Hmm... I don't know if this is so much a spoiler, but I'll give a spoiler warning anyway for those who don't want to know.
Apparently, Andy has grown up and gone off to college and the toys are donated to a day care center.
Okay, that's not really a plot as much as a situation, but I'm...
Thanks for the reply! I was thinking that the preshow was done after Jim's passing as (like you said) none of his characters are in it. I wonder how much of the theater design and the props in the preshow area and the design of the outside of the building Jim oversaw. I'm sure it was mostly out...
Well, this sort of goes without saying on a Muppet forum, but I wish The Muppet Show could have gone on longer. Of course, I understand the reasons it didn't as far as Jim wanting to move on to other things, but TMS is an example of the kind of entertainment that has become all but extinct in...
It really was a great film. It had it's moments that seemed like they were put in to please the kiddies, but it also had some great visual metaphors and deep character study,
I really do think Pixar films should be required viewing for film students or any sort of major that relies on writing...
I read this in Jim Henson: The Works on page 225.The quote said "... the movie was almost complete at the time of his death."
I guess it could be they have their facts wrong and I'm just reading too much into the quote, but the attraction didn't open until about a year after his passing, I think.
I didn't see a thread for this so I thought I'd start one.
I saw this movie on Friday and I admit, I've just been thinking about it since then. Pixar has the uncanny ability to create marvelous films I just can't get out of my head. Who else has seen it and what did you think of it?
I think that part of the problem with Annie Sue and Miss Mousey are that they are one note characters that weren't really developed much past being an unknowing foil for Miss Piggy. For Annie Sue, it's a huge shame because she was perhaps Louise Gold's most prominent character. I think she...
Baby Gonzo has always been my favorite of the Muppet Babies. In many ways, he's a representation of the Gonzo I am most comfortable with... The outgoing, crazy blue weirdo.
There are so many really classic Baby Gonzo scenes. One of my particular favorites is in the episode Faster Than A...
I saw this mentioned on the local news. The first thing I thought was "How is this going to effect the Whatnot Workshop?"
I'm really curious about it. I haven't made a whatnot yet myself.
That's a lovely cover! I especially love the color scheme and the poses.
I have yet to get the first comic yet, though I think that there will be a Boom! Studios booth at an upcoming comic convention I am going to. I hope they have copies there.
I have a feeling that this question has been asked here before, but I can't find it if it has.
I remember reading that Muppet Vision 3D was not complete at the time of Jim Henson's passing. My question is, what parts were done after his passing? I assume that the theater/queue wasn't complete...
I get what you mean. Perhaps it's a part of his style?
The Muppets have always relied on "cartoon" violence through characters being eaten, blown up, having things dropped on their heads, (the list goes on), but maybe that's just something that Steve decided to go on and take further? Sort of...
Dark Heart was pretty interesting and the movie itself wasn't horrible... but that scene is really ridiculous. :coy: It's the whole awkward character/audience interaction that really gets me. Care Bears is not Dora or Blues Clues and it shouldn't be. (Even if the movie did come over a decade...
