    Ideas For New Muppet Specials

    Well one thing is for certain...it is definately not of the tv specials weve seen in the 70's and 80's. And yes it is not in the order of a theatrical release. But I sure liked it a whole heckuva lot better than MCC and MTI! A lot of things come out that are ambigious. Cinderelmo, Kermit's...

    Jim Hill: Mickey plays it smart in last-minute hopes for Henson

    Couldnt have said it better. I know Ive said this before, but the coming month holds the distinct possibility of radical change in JHC/Muppetland. Ya think the forums were lit up with the VMC thoughts...well I have a feeling whatever goes down, it could end up being the best news ever or even...

    What was Disney thinking?

    Oh I know! I mean sure Spirit of the Stallion or whatever that was did just as bad as any Disney film this year, but Dreamworks with Shrek and other recent films have really given the Diz a run for their money. But I mean this had to be a RECORD year for baaaaaaad Disney films.

    Ideas For New Muppet Specials

    Re: Cory, I would disagree. I believe it is the first new Muppet(non Sesame) film since Muppets From Space. At least that's the way I see a lot of people treating it. Notice a lot of people talking about it int he conext of a film, not a special. If it was just some tv special, no way could...

    Muppets Arrive At UK McDonalds !

    Oh that is no joke. In Japan there is an officially licenced by Disney corporation Mickey 'magic hand wand'(ahem) and a Hello Kitty...well I think you get the idea(and trust me, it's not a pen from the pictures Ive seen) Yeah, Japan, that juggernaut of ideas and technology. But as far as the...

    What was Disney thinking?

    Oh I dont think the fans or JHC would let Disney so cavalerely do that to the Muppets. Pixar...well Pixar really was born from Disney's money. I mean yes, I remember fondly those kick butt Pixar shorts from the late 80's. But let's face it, most people didnt know who Pixar was til Toy Story came...

    that girl from Sesamstraat

    Re: How do they DO That??? Let's face it, Americans would be too close minded to accept any of these foreign Sesame shows...as some foriegn countries would be too close minded to accept the American versions. I mean Miss Piggy and Amazing Mumford are banned in Muslim countries. And ya can...

    Shalom Sesame...why is it scary???

    Yeesh...well I guess international ctw knows better than us what works regionally. So I take it were not going to be seeing this Palestinian show on American TV anytime soon? I think Americans have been clouded by the media and terrorists onto their colelctive thoughts when it comes to world...

    Ideas For New Muppet Specials

    I still say that hotel movie idea is the kind of thing we *dont* need...unless JHC wants the public perception of th eMuppets to truly go down the hill. But there's the question: What constitutes a Muppet movie versus a special? Warrick keeps calling it a tv special...but isnt MFC or M@WDW...

    Ever Noticed.....

    Just because we have seen the literal destruction of Sesame Street stuff merch wise into this FP 'Sesame Baby' stuff(look to Japan for the real Sesame collector market)...as well as all those kid's books...I would surmise, just like a lot of the classic Muppets, some of the Sesame gang are...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    It is the Koozbanian Phoob(checked the great TMS illustrated book) We definately need some form of limited articulation penguin/s in the calendar year of 2003 by Palisades(I mean...lets face it, would you guys want a few props and a penguin as a packin, or lots of props and no penguins)...

    Fraggle Figgers!

    The lamest thin gI see on all the forums I go to are just one word posts where they give a link to a thread they think you need to read, or a 'Idiot! Check the darn FAQ!' I mean c'mon, asking if Fraggle figures are coming out isnt like 'Um, hey...who are those two old guys in the balcony?'...

    MuppetFest 2?

    I just don't understand how there can be a Farscape con(ie: something thats only been around 4 years, on cable, and is now cancelled) but NO Muppetcon? eesh. Yeah, sadly it looks like even if there was a itny remote possibility of another Muppetfest, that live show was a once in a lifetime deal...

    Jim Hill: Mickey plays it smart in last-minute hopes for Henson

    Agreed. As odd as it seems, being a Muppet fans these days is still pretty rare and special and underground. Maybe thats the fun and frustration of being into all the stuff im into, be it the Muppets, or anime or my kind of music...all not so easy to find. The thrill of a good cd, figure, or dvd...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Hey, wasnt Robot Rabbit the first packin? Anyways, I agree...sorry to say but I must rather see a chicken, penguin, frackle, or even a vegetable then budget contraining props. And I would agree, Dave does seem to be the resident all things TMS guru!(I remember even I or Tom couldnt stump ya...

    Shalom Sesame...why is it scary???

    Glad ya like my irreverent sense of humour. And just for the record it usually bugs the crud out of me when people make mean or inappropriate jokes involving our beloved Muppets...but a psuedo unauthorized cheap arse Sesame production from the 70's, well... Btw, did the Palestinian Sesame by...

    Muppets in IAVMMCM

    This is actually the third time I had seen the bossmen, and was blown away! Though they seem like they are 50 feet high in person. And what? Chip from the guerrilla television segments of JHH and from MFS was in VMC? Hmmm! I'd love for someone to list every single named/non named Muppet...
