    The Amnesia Cliche - Good or Bad?

    Kinda reminds me of a Stephen Sondheim musical called MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG. It's about a team of songwriters but starts at the end of their career after they stopped speaking to each other. Then the end of the show starts when the songwriters meet each other. Then there's another musical called...

    The Arch Deluxe

    The story I heard was that they were sued by Sid and Marty Kroft who claimed that the McDonaldland universe was too similar to HR Puffenstuf.

    The Arch Deluxe

    I don't; what episode was it from? But anyway, my real reason for reviving this ancient thread is because I discovered this commercial (I'm sure this didn't last long, either):http://youtu.be/gPs6ocFO2PQ. Does anyone remember this?

    "Toy Story 4" in early planning stages

    That sounds like a better idea than the actual plot to the sequel. Actually, 'sequel' is an unfair term, because it will be taking place before the first film began and will focus on Mike and Sully's relationship in college.

    RIP Peter Falk

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20110624/en_afp/entertainmentfilmtelevisionusfalkobit The star of "Columbo" has passed away at age 83. I'll always remember him as Sam Diamond in "Murder By Death". Muppet fans will remember him for his classic cameo in "The Great Muppet Caper".

    Help with Title: Part III

    'Lady of the Rain' is one of those treatments that I'm constantly going back and re-tooling to get it up to a 'pitch' standard (meaning getting it ready to be pitched to a studio head).

    Help with Title: Part III

    Yep; 'Lady of the Rain'! And like I said, I'm sure I'm not the first person to tell this story, so it doesn't surprise me that it reminds you of something pre-existing.

    Help with Title: Part III

    Ha, I'm surprised you didn't comment on the M*A*S*H episode with that title. Also, The Golden Girls had one too.

    Help with Title: Part III

    Bringing back a series of threads that have not graced this forum since 2007! Once again, I have a great idea for a stage play and I need help choosing a title. Here's a synopsis (but first let me say that I'm sure this plot has been done a million times, but I think I know how to make it...

    Theodore Rex

    Finally saw the film! It's by no means a great movie, but it's very entertaining and now I walk around saying "COOKIES COOKIES COOKIES!" all the time.

    Crainiac appreciation thread

    I've been thinking lately about Crainiac's voice, which was done by Kevin Clash. I believe it was the same voice he used for Father Bunny in TALE OF THE BUNNY PICNIC. I think it's very important to remember how versatile a performer Kevin is beyond his performance of Elmo.

    Conversations with Bert

    I'll give him this: While his vocal performances are not that admirable, his understanding of the characters are extremely impressive. I saw an interview on some morning show where Stev and Eric did Kermit and Fozzie and Eric's portrayal of Fozzie's personality is on par with Frank's. As far...

    Conversations with Bert

    Well, The Wolfman and Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland won Oscars this year, but that doesn't make them good movies. Work on your arguments.

    RIP Phoebe Snow

    http://www.soundspike.com/news/article/2024-phoebe_snow_news/ Snow was one of my mom's favorite singers and played her songs all through my childhood. Her voice was definitely an acquired taste, but it was well worth getting used to. Her singing career was cut short so that she could care...

    Voice Exercises?

    This will sound really stupid, but when I do vocal warm-ups for theater, I do pigeon trills. They're great for exercising the muscles in your tongue, as well as your upper vocal registry.
