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 was lured in by the puppet aspect of the film - I mean, come on, before the new Muppet movie came out, when was the last time you saw a movie where a puppet was a prominent element in the movie? That said, the movie itself was a reign of chaos for everyone involved.
I personally felt it...
Well, I don't really go see too many bad movies. Green Lantern I got dragged to by a friend who insisted it would be amazing (he has since gotten his head checked out and is okay now :p), Pirates I saw because, well, it's Pirates (and for the Muppets teaser) and The Hangover I had a feeling...
Just saw this thread. There's still a ton of 2011 movies I have to see (I'll probably post a more comprehensive top 25 closer to the Oscars), but here's my top 15 list based on what I've seen in 2011.
The Muppets
Hugo
50/50
Drive
Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol
The Descendents
The Guard...
Does anybody know if the Pepe plush will ever be back in stock? I missed my chance to get one for Christmas and would like to buy it for myself eventually.
From my understanding, it was not.
In 1991, the Hensons announced plans to do holiday-specific Muppet specials to re-introduce the characters. A Halloween special and a Christmas special were planned. Somewhere down the line, Disney decided they'd get more mileage out of a theatrically released...
Alvin will have outgrossed The Muppets within the next few days. My reaction:

And I was starting to think moviegoers actually had taste this holiday season. :rolleyes:
I have a feeling TRON Legacy underperforming may have had something to do with the lack of Muppet merchandise. Whether or not the movie was a hit, Disney probably didn't want a repeat of TRON just in case.
I can't speak for everybody else's theaters, but the closest theater to me just had their last showings of The Muppets yesterday. So yeah, I think this movie only has a tiny bit left to go before it's done.
For those of us who plan on owning this, it's up for pre-order on Amazon.

The Muppet Movie definitely. It was my least favorite as a kid, but now I feel it's definitely the best Muppet movie. It has the best soundtrack of the seven films, I like that rather than throwing in a potpourri of Muppets at once, they are gradually introduced, and we only have a big focus on...
When I saw Bruno, I was the only one in the theater. Probably because it was the day a Harry Potter came out. Not particularly fun considering the movie.
I also saw Arthur Christmas last Thursday afternoon during the first showing of the day. I guess since the movie's been out for a while, is...
Well, I watched a lot of it today but not all of it because I had class to get to. Unfortunatly, I have to say I was pretty disappointed. Too many inserts, not enough time on Rechov Sumsum. I respect what they did with these videos but that doesn't mean this Chanukah one is particularly good...
You are lucky if you can find a non-Muppet fan who has a decent amount of respect for things Henson. My film professor this past semester enjoys The Muppet Movie and likes certain characters, but he isn't a die-hard fan, he has only a real basic knowledge of Henson his work. When it was revealed...
