    kubrick

    Kubrick figures are kind of like the Lego figures. There are many companies like Kubrick out there that make such things since Lego let their patent on this particular figure genre lapse several years ago. Here's my collection of Muppets & Seseame Kubricks and the color variant Oscars too...

    Steve Whitmire with Avenue Q?

    Me neither. I suppose he could. He's a freelancer, but once a performer has worked for the Muppets in such a fantastic capacity there's really little reason to do any other stuff unless they're helping out a friend. :)

    The Art of The Muppets 1980 Poster

    I imagine it's something like this one, but details are needed to know if it's a reprint or an original. Condition is also a factor.

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    Kids in movie theaters The first theatrical film I remember seeing was at the age of 5 when my parents took me to see the Muppet Movie in 1979. I was well behaved for the entire movie even though the Swedish Chef bit with the film breaking in the middle of it kind of caught me by surprise. It's...

    Cancelling Cable?

    One of my friends started watching that new zombie show from AMC. He likes it, but he also wondered why they were showing this original content instead of "American Movie Classics". I had to explain to him how the Cartoon Network doesn't really show cartoons anymore. His head head exploded. I...

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    I'd love Cory Edwards to start his filming right away so that next year's Muppet movie would have a preview of the Fraggle Rock movie mixed in with the rest of its trailers, but the only clock on a fraggle film (aside from the one counting down how long Weinstein will continue to retain the...

    New Muppet Movie to be Filled with Cameos

    MTM broke the wall at the end with Kermit singing the last line, I guess. So yeah, all of the movies!

    Cancelling Cable?

    I've lived without cable for nearly a year now. I'm pretty much covered for entertainment via NetFlix, Hulu and the cineplex across the street. Any important clip eventually goes viral on the web so I'm never far behind. I do love cable, but at this expense - what's the point? So, maybe I'll...

    New Muppet Movie to be Filled with Cameos

    I think they will. TMM, GMC and MTI seemed to reference the audience. I can't quite remember if the others did. Eeek, I should know that.

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    I know, right. I'm all for racy muppetiness, but it's sad that it takes precedence over the world-peace-centric fraggle gang. Fraggle Rock is actually the movie that should have come out about 8 years ago. :coy: People needed to hear its message even more back then. I'm still bewildered...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    I think social media should be defined by its function. There's the clean format of Facebook for those who don't want to drudge through so many customized pages. It's basically the no-nonsense place to post all of your nonsense content. There's MySpace that by definition should be...

    New Muppet Movie to be Filled with Cameos

    You never know. Unlikely, but not impossible. :p

    New Muppet Movie to be Filled with Cameos

    Makes me want to start a facebook page for "Put Betty White in the new Muppet movie".

    New Muppet Movie to be Filled with Cameos

    I wouldn't make this claim for the original TMM. Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy, Milton Berle, Mel Brooks, James Coburn, Dom DeLuise, Bob Hope, Madeline Kahn, Carol Kane, Cloris Leachman, Steve Martin, Richard Pryor and Orson Welles should all be memorable, but maybe Telly Savalas, Paul...

    New Muppet Christmas Ornament at the Disney Store

    I'm sure they predicted Up! would sell poorly considering how much unsold Ratatouille and Wall-E stuff they were stuck with. Up! might have been a lot of things to a lot of people as a film, but as a toyline...it's just not that dynamic. The item with the best selling point would the a talking...

    New Muppet Christmas Ornament at the Disney Store

    They had a green Kermit travel mug, but that's it. Lots of Nightmare Before Christmas stuff. I'm thinking the Muppet products will make the rounds in next year's first quarter and gradually increase throught next year. I wouldn't be surprised if they created a PVC set for the Disney Stores. They...

    New Muppet Movie to be Filled with Cameos

    The movie going public is muuuuuch different than it was thirty years ago. Having a veteran actor like Billy Crystal is great and will stand the test of time, but he's not going to get butts in the seats like Lady Gaga. I think there's a good mixture of talented people that reflect different...

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    They'll probably shoot "The Muppets" until the end of the year and then some of the puppeteers will shoot the "Happytime Murders" from January until March, so the Fraggles could start shooting anytime after that if they wanted to. It's not that far in the future.

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    For whatever reason, it's a Facebook world now. I like the clean look personally. It's a content-driven social site. Substance over style. I have my own website for creating style media so I don't really need the MySpace formatting. It is a shame they changed the only competitive factor they...

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    The kind of edge they should stay away from are pop culture references of Outer Space because Fraggles are timeless and not supposed to know about such things. That's the edge that would be icky. Considering the Muppet movie is shooting now and the Happy Time Murders is shooting in January...
