    Post your AIM here(and let's get the Muppet party started!)

    Ive edited my post, as I dont think anyones gonna come to TP tonight...anyways I'm trying to get jumpstarted a new community effort here. I think next week and beyond were going to see a real dramatic jump in the number of new members. I think between discussing the movie and getting to know...

    Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie

    Well, it's not like this was a Muppet version of Kevin Smith's Dogma. As for the whole 'new' direction JHC debuted recently with Kermit on Late Late and the NBC film...it's the only choice they have now. I mean sure they can churn out more purely kiddy 'safe' sentimental stuff, but is that a...

    Chritmas Movie DVD release

    Thanks for answering some of my questions! British Standards in theory seem a bit odd...does this mean a rated R film youd have to show out of order in order to accompany the nudity swearing and violence time slot? As theyd say in the UK 'poppycock bullocks' hehe It is strange what...

    Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie

    In a way I think maybe thats part of the intended effect(maybe not, but still) to stir things up a bit. It's good were talking. This year weve had embarassingly bad drama and flame wars concerning the Aids muppet, the Snoop thread, the 9 days conspiracy, etc. Im confident we can discuss all...

    You guys are on the right step toward bringing MC closer to its full potential, congrats Jamie. One thing, please please tell me you and Phil are working on brand new exclusive content be it interviews, scoops, etc. I really miss those types of things, as MC site wise seems to be just newsbytes...

    Muppet Cd-Rom(a 7 year late review)

    Hey thanks, good to be back! I think I needed time to reflect on things and clear my head. I would also like to say I am quite encouraged by the direction Muppet Central has been going in recent weeks, as of course I had openly criticized MC's apparent stagnation. I think the new retooling going...

    For those that need avatars...

    Hey all! Good to be back on board this wacky train! Anyways, I noticed a lot of the newcomers are in need of an avatar. If anybody needs a cool custom avatar from *any* JHC related thing or even non related things. I can help! The size is 64x64 I think, so if youre in need of one, or just want a...

    Your Thoughts: It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas

    Thanks Tom! Good to be back. Oh, you just mentioned one of the coolest scenes in the whole film...where Kermit addresses the Muppets in the audience as the camera pans...too cool! I think it is about right then it hits you that the Muppets are back, or at least slowly inching toward that. I also...

    Muppet Cd-Rom(a 7 year late review)

    I have no idea why I didn't think of this sooner, but I finally got around to loading up and playing Muppets Inside(Muppet CD-ROM) on my new computer. And boy was I in for a treat! After you put the cd and it loads, it starts playing the opening footage to the Muppet show but with lyrics about...

    Who's Your Favorite Muppet?

    For me it's Beaker followed by Pepe(and wow did they steal the show Friday night!) and Digit(from the Jim Henson Hour) I would agree, Pepe is definately one of the driving forces of the 'new era' in Muppet history.

    Oh absolutely. I remember when I first saw him on the Today Show, he was interviewing the Muppets. On www.roker.com he has a ton of pictures of him with the Muppets, and seems to have a strong repore with them(wish he had been in the movie) Overall I just get the sense he's a very special person...

    Your Thoughts: It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas

    Oh Byron, if it was *actually* Steve Iriwn, I woulda laughed my pants off...but that faux Irwin was just baaaaaaad. I mean seriously, that should have been left on the editing room floor.

    Your Thoughts: It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas

    Welcome! It's really something how many new members have showed up in 24 hours. I wouldnt be surprise if next week shows off a tidal wave of newcomers...all of which is encouraged and welcomed.

    Chritmas Movie DVD release

    Luke, I have a very curious question for you...how does British Television broadcasting standards differ from the US? I know in the Netherlands you can show endless amounts of nudity on regular tv. Movie wise in the UK I know sometimes R films get treated as PG and vice versa. But being UK...

    What Do I Pay You People For?!

    After working as a retail slave for a month at Pottery Barn(albeit my first job ever in 24 years) Ive decided to spend my full time in the dreaming and the benefits of being over 18...ie: endless freetime(most of which is spent working on my art, music, flash design, etc) Yes, I finally bought a...

    Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie

    Scarecrow is gonna be the only one who gets this...but the next Muppet film should be directed by Godfrey Reggio with music by Phillip Glass...itd be about the current awkward state of trying to appeal to the current hip generation while being conflicted with being children's entertainment, as...

    Well there are my influences, and then there are people I look at as being people I truly respect, admire, and see as rare gems in this world. The people I look at as being one in a billion extrordinary visionaries would be: Jim Henson the current Dalai Lama Martin Luther King Jr. Robin...
