Realistically, Johnny Fiam(m)a aand Sal. Unrealistically, Skeeter.

That's a pretty good impression of Red. And I like the song. It's funny because it's true!

Isn't guerrilla puppetry fun? I've been bringing my puppets to Dragon*Con for the last few years and having a blast. Keep it up!

Sigh. There's nothing in this trailer to appeal to me. The whole thing reeks of testosterone poisoning. Gonna go back and read my original Eastman & Laird GNs now.

You can say that, even after seeing my "World in which Kermit was never born B-O-R-N born!" pics? You are a brave lady.

Think Lord of the Flies.

I would also like to burn that jacket. Not because I dislike it, but because it is a major headache to replicate. I can alter baby clothes for most of the rest, but that jacket, OY. You're waving the red flag in front of the bull when you say things like that in a thread I read. You know that...

I saw it at 11:30 today. and the theater was about 2/3 full, mostly families with kids and 1 birthday party. People enjoyed it, although there were two very little kids who vocally wanted to leave; they were bored by the plot-heavy bits and scared by some of Constantine's sequences. I brought...

I think you have to PM Philip with board issues. I don't think he watches this thread.

Interesting! I keep thinking it'd be a lot more comfortable to just thicken the top of the skull to shape it, but that would sacrifice flexibility, and probably look freaky when you wiggle your hand to change his expression. How snug is the head width-wise?

Heh, I kind of guessed that. My Constantine would have to be pretty small, as I have girlie hands.

Ah. I'm so used to foam-skull puppets, it's hard for me to wrap my brain around the idea of a puppet with a fabric-only head. I ought to make one just so I can get a feel for it. ...Why is there no Constantine smiley?

So there's nothing between your hands and the fabric of the head and the material of the mouthplate? Cool. I'd think he'd need something for the thumb, otherwise the lower jaw and throat might look strange when he opened his mouth.

Do you use finger tubes to secure the upper palate against your hand?

Is April Fool joke? I can not smell like big pig? Pfeh!

The Henson stitch works best on fleece. When you pull it tight the thread disappears, and then you can pick out the fibers trapped in the seam to hide it. Despite what most people (even Scooter!) say, felt isn't the usual material for puppet skin. It has little or no stretch, so either it is...

Whew, I'm glad I missed the great Kermit & Piggy discussion. Sometimes I feel that I'm the only Muppet fan who doesn't get particularly excited about them. I don't hate that 'ship, I just am not emotionally invested in it. If they do they do, and if they don't they don't. I saw this again...

Ha! That was pretty fun to listen to. Both of my parents were symphonic musicians, so I get a kick out of hearing more modern stuff getting the full, live treatment. I'm glad they added "visual aids." I would have had a hard time placing some of the themes without them. Also, I didn't know...

It's on the lips, but "enthusiastic" would be an overstatement. It's quick but not hurried, IIRC.
