    Your Thoughts: Kermit and the Muppets on Jimmy Kimmel Live

    I hoping that tonight, being the finally for Kermit's co-hosting, that we'll have a plethora of guest Muppets. I can dream can't I? :D

    New Gonzo head sculpt!

    The only other figurine company I've seen with as much attention to detail is McFarlane Toys. Their Movie Maniacs series is truly amazing (so are many of their other series). Where Palisades improves upon McFarlane however, is that their figures aren't heavily "pre-posed" like the McFarlane...

    Editorial: Kermit and Kimmel Behind the Scenes

    Thanx FB :), no I didn't go to MuppetFest, I've only been in LA for about 5 months, here temporarily from Australia/NZ. I've been *slowly* reading the transcript with much envy. It sounds like it was truly a Muppet Fan's dream event! At least I came at a good time, with Kermit being on...

    Your Thoughts: Kermit and the Muppets on Jimmy Kimmel Live

    Someone mentioned earlier that the S&W segments were taped last Friday. As for the audience reaction to them, we were told during the break, "this time when we exit the break, please be very, very quiet, no applause" (usually, we were told to make as much noise as possible when exiting the...

    Bunny, Bunny!

    When I was a child, it was "White Rabbit" on the first of the month for good luck.

    Gonzo Muppet more than toy

    I was wondering that too. I think they're the little plastic toys that have moveable limbs and stuff, that when you push in on the spring loaded bottom of the base they stand on, the body goes floppy, when you release it they stand up straight again. Does that make sense? I've seen a really...

    Seeking: One Small Girl Lost on a Robot Planet

    That's it!!! That's it!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Nice work Erin, you are a LEGEND!!! :) A google search on Robostory doesn't yield much except for the theme song transcript you found, and a bunch of other people writing to forums asking the same question. I found a promo picture which...

    New movies coming out...

    Indeed, the last few times I've flown the OZ/NZ/US triangle I've used Air New Zealand. They show a "Welcome to Air NZ" movie on all flights promoting the airline as "The Official Airline to Middle Earth", and the travel guide-esque scenes are all centred around the LOTR movies. Air NZ have...

    Gonzo Muppet more than toy

    Bobbleheads are scary and disturbing to me. I've never liked them. No offence trekkie :) Very nice ship btw, the 1701E. ;)

    Your Thoughts: Kermit and the Muppets on Jimmy Kimmel Live

    I wasn't at all impressed with tonight's Kimmel. Why are there no guests that get excited about meeting Kermit (with the exception of Darryl Hannah, who was purportedly a friend and admirer of Jim Henson)? They all either ignore him or make snide remarks. To paraphrase the awful 'comic'...

    It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas...

    It was like that here in LA. No snow obviously, but the suddeness of the climate change was almost unnatural. As if literally overnight, LA's nights have become icy cold. We've been blanketed by early morning, thick fog many times over the last little while. Brrrr.

    Seeking: One Small Girl Lost on a Robot Planet

    Being a rather resourceful bunch, I hoping that someone can help me out here. I'm trying to find the name of an animated series I watched once, and my memory of it is rather sketchy, so please forgive the description I give as it may be somewhat inaccurate. Here goes... I saw this series many...

    Ahh, nice! Bo Welch has a very impressive repertoire. You are right, he was responsible for creating the Edward Scissorhands Mansion (and the pastel town), the Haunted House and "other" world in Beetlejuice and he also designed Burton's Gotham City for Batman Returns. In addition to all that...

    New movies coming out...

    Oh so do I! I've actually travelled thru NZ a few times over the past few years and have twice missed casting calls by merely days. It just wasn't meant to be I guess :smirk: I'll be leaving the US prior to the ROTK release, so it looks like I'll miss the trilogy marathon too (I don't even...

    New movies coming out...

    I was so impressed with how much was crammed in to the only 20-something minutes of extras. Indeed, the LOTR ending is bittersweet, I just hope the whole ending is included in the film (ie: The return home. Is that giving too much away for non-readers of the book? I hope not.) Peter...

    Oooh, do you know who is directing this? *closes eyes & crosses fingers - please say Tim Burton, please say Tim Burton*

    New movies coming out...

    Return of the King I'm pretty much bouncing off the walls waiting this movie. I just read that New Line Cinema, prior to ROTK's Dec 17 release, will be doing a once-off showing at cinemas of: the extended version of Fellowship (Dec 5-11), followed by the (AFAIK) yet-to-be-seen extended...

    Your Thoughts: Kermit and the Muppets on Jimmy Kimmel Live

    Oh, I agree totally and I do hope that the Muppets are ageless/timeless and able to be appreciated by all generations. It was a quick off the cuff thought, and I was thinking in reference to when I was kid that the Muppets were on TV regularly but as I grew older they seemed to be on less and...

    Your Thoughts: Kermit and the Muppets on Jimmy Kimmel Live

    For the first segment whilst Kermit was in the main guest's chair next to Jimmy's desk, Steve was lying on the floor in front of the chairs, clearly visible to the audience. He was operating Kermit alone and had both arm rods in his left hand, with his right operating Kermit's main body and...
