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.
I believe it is still in the rules to be thoughtful of others. Reviving old threads with nothing new to say or misleading other members would go against that so it's kind of covered. I think the issue really is one of enforcement since such things are usually done by the same offenders. Don't be...
Nobody's landed yet. You're really not supposed to adopt anything, especially Windows-based, until it's been out for a year. Remember Vista? They never did get that right. Let the alpha-consumer lab rats nip at the initial offering. Other than that, technology is always moving forward. That's...
I know what you are saying. It's like if a new member bumped a 2002 thread about Fox developing a new Muppet Show. That's irresponsible and it would get our hopes up just to have them dashed when reading about the deal that never happened from 10 years ago. But there are also members who start...
Why in the world would you say that? Maybe you don't love it, but I think the humor and comic book references would be very much Kevin's taste. BBT is a phenomenally funny show and Parsons as Walter was such a perfect fit in the film. He really went all-out and I appreciated that. :)
I'm not sure if you really wanted your question answered, but as I stated before - the one big lie Fox News continues to spread is that the Muppets are trying to indoctrinate children to become anti-corporation socialists. They have done this countless times before with Sesame Street too. That...
I knew there had to be a technical term for it. Very niche style compared to what I'm used to hearing. I listened to the first half of the 5 minute song and still couldn't find any melody. It's not my taste and just sounds like irritating noise to my palette. But then again, so does "It's Hard...
So is a DVD player. Personally, I don't trust digital downloads for my favorite movies. I want them available in a hard copy version. But it is very true that Disney and Sony have some sweetheart deals. Disney was one of the first studios to back Blu-ray against the inferior HDDVD in the format...
They should have created a two disc DVD, but that's called marketing.
I agree that it makes little sense to view high res media on a low res monitor now, but in retrospect it will make even less sense to buy lower res old technology that's nearly the same price when everything is moving to...
Not sure if this was said earlier, but you DO know that Fox News' lengthy attack of the Muppets didn't come immediately after the film's debut. It came a day after Kermit lit the White House Christmas tree with the first lady! Somebody tell me, with a straight face, that was a coincidence...
I'm going to put something in perspective here in a fresh post.
The last time a theatrical Muppet movie debuted on home video it was the VHS-only "Muppets From Space" in the fall of 1999. There's an entire generation between then and now! I'm just happy to see how far the Muppets (and...
In a thread about all these special features we originally thought were not going to be released you've complained endlessly about how they packaged them. It's kind of like the few people who whined about ticket and concession stand prices when the movie first came out in theaters. It's a...
I understand the belt-tightening as much as anybody, but I'm a movie-lover and an enormous Muppet fan so this expense is factored-into that.
Just got my Blu-ray player and I'm watching Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Looks great!
The thing is, flatscreen HD TVs are very cheap these days and...
It's a Disney release and they've likely projected sales. I doubt they'll lose a dime doing it this way. Most people apparently have Blu-rays these days. They should definitely have put as much on the DVD. What the heck happened to the 2 disc DVD set? But this is how such releases go so i have...
That's a valid complaint. I'm going out to buy a Blu-ray player this week because of the upcoming disc and money is very tight. A 2-disc DVD set with all the special features would have been nice. Disney is one of the first companies to sign on to Blu-Ray and they are trying to influence...
This isn't 4 versions of the same movie. This is 4 packagings of the film. What's wrong with allowing people to purchase the deal that's best for them? Some fans already have the soundtrack and others might just want the movie etc. Disney is just trying to accommodate everybody. Why the...
I thought Parsons was a perfect choice! He is an "actual celebrity" as well as an Emmy winner and most people know Big Bang Theory. But I do wish NPH had been given more to do in the movie. He just doesn't strike me as a perfect Walter alter ego like Parsons.
I have no doubt that Henson can get any one of these projects made. They just kind of need to pick one and follow it through. We know a successful Muppet movie can be made for $45 million and that the overseas market is just as important as the domestic box office. These films could easily be...
