    If "The Muppets" is a success: What's next?

    Muppet films instead of Muppet classic literature films. There is a place for the Muppetized retelling of classic stories and that is in segments on television specials rather than assigning the gimmick to an entire motion picture. I think they've figured that out by now. I hope the films keep...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    I kind of hate to admit this, but... What I find particularly interesting is that Republicans keep insisting on playing a cheap and easy political short game based on archaic religious gay fear rather than think of the bigger picture. It's largely generational too. There are many more young...

    "The Muppets" Teaser Trailer in US Theaters

    I'm surprised that Crazy Harry has survived the climate of political correctness, but the Muppets just aren't the Muppets without his 'splosions! :crazy:

    I don't believe the government should restrict the personal choices of its tax paying citizens. All options should be visible and accessible. I know someone said something about school lunches. Well, the truth is that many students aren't given healthy options because of the deals schools...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Bullying is tough. On one hand young people don't want to "tattle" on one another and I agree with that sort of policy, but there's a point when an adult must be notified and certain regulations must be in place. My ex-boyfriend never received his high-school diploma because of an atmosphere...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    I agree with you here. Mel Gibson is no saint and I hate his views, but I'll see his movies. He is very talented. Honestly, I don't view him as a bigot as much as I see him as a crazy person with deep psychological issues. I guess we cherry-pick some things. I would think differently if he ever...

    "The Muppets" Teaser Trailer in US Theaters

    Very good to hear. And kinda what I feel about the poster too. My personal preference would be a classic hand-drawn poster.

    There are different types of activism. This is just one of them. It used to be that people like this would throw pies in the face of another person. Now that's rude and uncalled for, but only a complete wuss would complain about a little bit of shiny glitter. I probably wouldn't do it, but I do...

    Jason Segel talks The Muppets and his inspiration

    Who gets the bulk of that ticket money? The overpaid stars. Certainly not the writers or even most of the directors. If you find ticket prices are too high and you have a choice between Jim Carrey in some big budget monstrosity and a smaller, more thoughtfully crafted film without and A-list...

    I have to get a new scanner, but there are some pics floating around online. Not many, but some.

    Agreed. And it's not his mistakes as much as just how horribly he made them: News served his cancer-riddled second wife with divorce papers on Mother's Day so he could marry his pregnant mistress and all the while kept preaching his arbitrary view of family values! You just can't invent that...

    "The Muppets" Teaser Poster

    10 things to be excited about! 1: This project was pitched as a departure from failed post-Jim gimmics of the past. They took an appropriate amount of time in pre-production planning to insure that everything was in place. 2: This project will feature a lot of long-lost Muppet characters. 3...

    Dark Crystal comic FREE 7 May 2011

    Here's a poorly-taken snapshot of the new character. Raunip, Aughra's mischievous son, is my new favorite thing from the Dark Crystal comic.

    :rolleyes: I'm sorry DW, but that's not what was being said at all. Sometimes you write more than you read here. Just sometimes, though. ;) Coming from a place of pessimism without being very knowledgeable about the topic is what was being singled out. Sure, fans are free to voice an uninformed...

    "The Muppets" Teaser Poster

    "The Muppet Movie" is responsible for my love of film. Sure, "Muppets From Space" fizzled at the box office and I knew half-way through the movie that it was going to bring about problems for the future of the Muppets. Maybe it's good that it did. They needed to refocus. It was the first and...

    Thanks Bo. A fan site is a little different than a basic film forum in that we're all here because we want to be and we want the property to succeed. "I don't care what anyone else thinks, I'm having a good time!" - Robin from "The Muppet Movie" :)

    You enter a fan board and try to deflate the excitement that people have for a project based on absolutely no information and then wonder why you're disliked? Take your meds dude. Anyone who's followed the project and articles pertaining to it has heard nothing but good things and that it's...

    "The Muppets" Teaser Poster

    You know what. You're right. You are entitled to your opinion, but I can assure you that absolutely no one here cares to hear it. Muppets weren't made for a person with such a sucky attitude. Jumping the gun on pessimism is just so unmuppety. Pukey Oscar Icon for you ----> :grouchy:
