The painfully shoehorned Ed Koch cameo in MTM. Didn't the filmmakers know that Koch wouldn't be mayor forever (thankfully)? Making it such a point to include him locks the movie in the early 80's. Same with the Hulk Hogan and Dawson's Creek cameos in MFS. Though, the MFS cameos are not as big a...

I also love Surf's Up; it's my favorite non-Disney/Pixar/Dreamworks animated film, along with the first Hoodwinked. I agree with Drtooth that the first Cloudy film is very hard to enjoy as a whole; the last third is where I lose interest, but that's not enough to keep me from enjoying it. I...

Keep in mind that there are audiences out there for movies like that. It's quite obvious that your sense of humor is quite highbrow, but that doesn't mean that pun-heavy films don't have an appeal.

Jerry Juhl was obviously a 'jack-of-all-trades' within the Henson company, but he was also the head writer of Fraggle Rock and wrote the bulk of the series. So I thought it was a good idea to share our favorite show written by Jerry Juhl and a brief summary of why we like it. My personal...

I finally got a chance to see the Paul Williams documentary about a month ago and I am sorry to say that I did not enjoy it. Throughout the entire film, Williams berates and backtalks the interviewer/director. I consider this to be unacceptable behavior for two reasons: A) The director is...

KSY was technically a direct-to-video release, so I didn't really forget it. IAVMMCM doesn't bother me as a Muppet film; it bothers me as a Christmas film. I'm very sensitive about Christmas movies/specials being overly dark or glum. The one saving grace of IAVMMCM is how Fozzie was used...

I’m speaking, of course, of It’s a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie, Muppets Wizard of Oz, and Letters to Santa. These TV films have gotten a lot of hate, and I think it’s time for someone to put them in perspective. They were made to try to put the Muppets back in the public eye and keep...

The only Seuss film to have sidekicks was Horton Hears a Who, and even those characters had minimum involvement in the story.

Can I just say I hated the Lorax film? The way that it jumped around in time drove me nuts and plus it was just plain boring.

Muppets From Space and Muppets Take Manhattan are also guilty of this.

Here's my journey with Glee: I watched it loyally from the very first episode, survived Season Two and brought new meaning to the word 'tolerance' with Season Three (the only saving grace with S3 was that Quinn actually became an active character again after little to no story arc in S2). Then...

For those who aren't familiar with the series "Glee", Monteith played Finn. Even though I no longer wtach the show (and evn when I did, I wasn't a huge fan of Finn), I'm deeply saddened to hear about this. Cory was very talented and he seemed like a really great person...

Got the DVD in the mail today! The commentary was great, but I thought the Rizzo and Gonzo comments were unnecessary.

Which DVD edition of Muppet Treasure Island has the audio commentary on it?

I completely forgot about this thread. So in a nutshell, here's what my theater life was like after MATTRESS. I did four shows back to back: BYE BYE BIRDIE (Reporter; Mr Johnson), GYPSY (Georgie, Phil), LYSISTRATA (2nd Athenian) and KING AND I (Amazon), and then was blacklisted for 3 1/2...

Several years ago, there was a list thread about the Muppeteers playing to their strengths as performers(most versatile, most funny, etc.) Well, one of the categories was best singer. IIRC, the ratings were a tie between Jerry and Richard, then Jim, then Frank, and Dave Goelz didn't even...

Well, at one time Karen Prell and Terry Angus posted here quite frequently, but again that was years ago. If you'd like to try to contact them, Karen's username is KPrell and Terry's username is ButchCat.

I read a very vague statement somewhere that the UK Doc segments have since been destroyed. This leaves me with a lot of questions: 1) Are the actual filmed segments destroyed or simply the negatives? 2) Why have they been destroyed (if they even have been)?

Well, someone on Facebook said she died today, so there tis.
