    ANOTHER Muppet T-Shirt Design Contest

    Surprised I never heard of We Fine. From what I can tell(even tho its a bit to Pony/Brony heavy for my taste) I like the vibe and style of their shirts way more than threadless. Threadless just feels a tad bit *too* hipsterish(and Im a total hipster! lol) I actually feel more free to come up...

    *If* Figures for "The Muppets" were made, what would you want?

    ANY word if there will be any Muppet toys this year other than the Star Wars ones at Disney Parks?

    Jim Henson's "Starboppers"

    Freudian based concepts? Nice. Yeah JHC was really thinking outside the box back then. Thanks for digging this one up Tooth! Never heard of it. Im surprised this is not from the late 80's, as it seems part of the JHH/Muppet TV era but is from the early 80's. Now if only they had some Kafka or...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    I always like the rebel. That's why I voted for Cynthia Mckinney in 2008. That's why I'd vote for Ron Paul, Jesse Ventura, Roseanne Barr, or someone akin to George Mcgovern or the late RFK. Christ is portrayed as a rebel. He took on the evil empire controlling people in his area. That's why I...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    I'm a big fan of the *original* modern Tea Party protest movement from a few years ago:)

    The best and worst uses of Flash animation

    I can't really be dissing on Flash. While it's ubiquitous and I can't get into a lot of it, a LOT of "traditional" animation since the late 90's(Dexters Lab, Johnny Bravo, Powerpuff Girls, Lazlo, Phineas and Ferb) has a flash-ish look. Even before flash was really used for tv production. Hey...

    Official Disney Character Descriptions for THE MUPPETS

    Wow, Gonzo is looking quite dapper:) Loving these posers...someday I hope we get truly authentic posers that look exactly like the Muppets in 1980's-2000's magazines/ads/promos. Anyone remember the Vanity Fair late 1995 cover with the Muppets? Animal looked quite interesting with the blue...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Dr Tooth, yeah that makes no sense...how can Tea Party people claim to be rebels, anti corrupt and anti government yet support the most hardliner crypto fascists out there? Bizarre. I at least can kind of see eye to eye with the right wing Christian fringe who hate the government no matter who...

    First Muppet movie TV commercial on the Disney Channel

    Hopefully we'll have at least a few Muppet things in Disney store by next month. Great commercial, so glad they're marketing this to the international crowd. The timing of the vocal dubs could be better, but I understand why they dub it the way they do And yeah, holy mole Thog looks like he...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    So you guys gotten a chance to see this Rick Perry guy? I now officially apologize for all the criticism I gave to Bush and Obama. Rick Perry seems genuinely like a fundie mega-fascist...even my zealous Christian friends are scared of Rick Perry and his Tea Party minions. Perry says he wants to...

    These are a few of my favorite things...

    Aw ok, big list! Sadly haven't heard much of any of those...though I've heard of wilco and 90's "alt country" type stuff. Yeah I guess a lot of the stuff I been into the last couple years could be considered indie dance music with a lot of the obvious catchy hooks and stuff.

    The Muppets at D23 Expo 2011

    True, and we did see Rowlf speak in the 2002 Weezer making of(gosh, cant believe that was over 9 years ago!) BUT I have to say Scooter sounded wayyy off IMHO until the Bohemian Rhapsody video. Both Rowlf and Scooter sound perfect now, as well as all the Oz characters that got taken over. Im...

    Brkndwnbus: What other bands could you recommend, either major/indie or super underground? Pretty much I love shoegazer, Joy Division/Suede/Suicide/Roxy Music/Velvet Underground/Smiths influenced bands, some indie folk stuff, anything like MGMT/Empire of the Sun/Foster the People/Phoenix...

    The Muppets at D23 Expo 2011

    Yeah, my guess too is that they just couldn't get the right voice for Scooter and Rowlf(Scooter btw sounds PERFECT, thank goodness) I guess they were waiting, but they both are back in a big way which is quite exciting(Wish they could have debuted Skeeter in puppet form, as the tween/teen market...

    The Muppets at D23 Expo 2011

    Exactly Beau. People forget just *how* long the Muppets had been around. And for many people(including my Mom), Rowlf was the main Muppet character in the public eye for awhile. The 1969 "Sesame naming" special with Kermit and Rowlf tho was sadly the last time you really saw this focus on their...

    Oh nice. I missed the National when they played this two day festival in San Francisco I went to. I went for day one which was LCD Soundsystem, Deadmau5, Miike Snow, Die Antword, etc but day two was Belle and Sebastian, The National, Zoey Descenel's She and Him, etc. But pretty much I adore any...

    New Muppet Movie Viewing Parties

    I guess I'm lucky to have a zealous rabid Muppet fan for a mom:flirt: Last time I was over she had a whole wall of Muppet ephemera and doodads. Also for some reason pretty much every theater near me is $5 on Tuesdays and $5 first showing of any film. Now and then if Im wearing one of my Muppet...

    "The Muppets" first preview screening

    Heh, true DW...is there anything we haven't spoiled ourselves with yet?:3 Btw, while this film apparently cares little for Pepe, Rizzo, Janice, etc...the new behind the scenes of OK Go features really good interviews/talking scenes with Pepe, Janice and Floyd
