Yeah I've been checking Jim Hill all week. So far nothing. But maybe tomorrow? He said he would have to wait to hear back from his contact in the Muppets.

I know people have mixed feelings about him, but Jim Hill said that he's looking into his Disney contacts to find out more about this deal and what's in store for the Muppets, so we have a little bit more information that will be coming our way hopefully next week.

Well, writing a script varies in time. Jerry Juhl and Kirk Thatcher definitely knew what they were getting into with MTI but I remember on the "Tale Behind the Tail" or whatever that making of is called, that Kirk detailed just how long it took them to write a script. And they were already...

I definitely agree about both parts. Disney has no reason NOT to see this film through to the end. As said earlier, Jason Segel is one of the Apatow gang--and pretty much every MEGA-hit comedy in the last few years (save, like, Night at the Museum) has been because of them. EVERYONE in Hollywood...

I think right now all we know about the story is that it's the Muppets working together, Kermit-centric, cameo-laden (but more like the cameos in TMM/GMC/MTM than MWoO *shudderquentintarrintinoshudder*). Oh, and awesome. We can also assume that it will be musical, funny, and awesome. It think...

Okay I just found an article from someone who's actually seen "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" and here's what he has to say about the puppet work in it: " This isn’t as out of left field as it sounds. Once you see Forgetting Sarah Marshall it’ll make sense. Puppets actually figure pretty...

Thanks for the Rotten Tomatoes article. A little more light gets shed on this every day. And you know who Jason Segel reminds me of in that article? Us. Without typos or emoticons. Hmm, he can point out the differences between the types of movies? He's petitioning Disney for a Muppet movie? He...

OMG I SO WANT THAT CAKE. Have you ever seen Ace of Cakes? I bet they would make an AWESOME Muppet cake--but that one would be pretty hard to beat. Woah. All riiiiiiiiiight for the party! I brought the CHEESE DOODLES!

Word. Three months into 2008 and we already have word of S4 of Fraggle Rock, S3 of TMS, new Muppet videos on a new Muppet website and a new Muppet movie. We should throw a party. ;)

You know what's even more awesome about this? How high-profile this is. I mean, the news that it's going to be written has been out, what five days? And already it's circulating heavily in the media. THIS Muppet project WILL NOT pass by unnoticed by the world.

YAYYYYY JASON SEGEL! I heart you. Focusing on the frog, all riiiiight. And that whole "the plot's top secret" thing? ONLY MAKES ME WANT TO KNOW MORE.

YEAHHH Paul Williams! The best Muppet music is always Paul Williams---TMM, Emmet Otter, MCC... He just gets them. But I have to agree that I think the Muppets are definitely still current. The only thing that makes TMS/the movies feel dated is the guest stars. And sometimes Piggy's hair. Aside...

TV Guide has a quick peek into the How I Met Your Mother relaunch party (it comes back on Monday and I encourage everyone to watch! 8:30 on CBS!) and most of the cast was too busy getting grilled about Britney Spear's guest spot to say anything else, but Jason did mention this: Segel also...

HAHAHAHAHAHHA OMG Beau, that was the longest, most awesome-est response to an entire thread in one post that I've ever read. Your enthusiasm is JUMPING off the screen! Cheers to that! :) Btw, WHO was Jason Segel in Alias? Because I love me my Alias but definitely don't remember him popping...

A miracle? Really? Disney may not be everyone's cup of tea, but they are SOARING right now. High School Musical, Hannah Montana--I don't like these at ALL but they are definitely all the rage today. Yes, we've seen High School Musical before (Grease and the like), but the current generation...

BTW, am I the only one who thinks "Taminella's Revenge" sounds pretty awesome? ;)

I don't understand why some people want to doom this movie before it even starts. Have a little hope, a little faith. Yes, we've been through MANY disapointments, especially in the past few years, but why are we so convinced that it will remain this way? If WE'RE the big Muppet fans, shouldn't...

Helloooo everybodyy! I was SO PSYCHED to hear this news, and I come here (I'm not REALLY supposed to forum-post at work) and so many people are already so worried about it. Be happy! The cup is half-full not half-empty! I know that you look at Jason Segel and see that he's one of the Apatow...

The whole "vocal flexibility" is an interesting topic. Personally, after listening intently to every Muppety thing I can lay my hands on, it is very easy for me to discern who's doing what voice. Definitely Jerry's got a great amount of vocal talent, but to the Muppet-trained ear, you can tell...

Anyone catch the Pigs in Space reference on tonight's 100th episode of Family Guy? Plus, in the highlights episode right before they showed the "wrong sounding Muppets" clip. ;)
