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 don't think either of the last two Muppet movies have anything to apologise to Disney for. They are classic movies in the truest sense of the word, and will be watched and re-watched many, many times.
But what I really wanted to say in this post was what an absolutely stellar job Eric has...
All the usual suspects, er, occupants of Room 5 are huddled in the kitchen except Ruahnna.
Kermit: (looking over his shoulder) Hey guys, does anybody know anything about an anniversary next week? I heard someone say something to Ru about her upcoming anniversary...?
Fozzie: Maybe she's getting...
Hi Zachary,
I enjoyed your review and the time you put into it. An affectionate homage is always in good taste. I wanted to comment on your comments a bit, but first I wanted to be sure that you had seen the comments here, as well as Kermit & Piggy's comments regarding CGI. There WAS no CGI in...
Chapter 158: It's Not What It Sounds Like, Either
Bobo watched the carpenters hammering away on the crystalline staircase under the watchful eye of the set designer. That was going to be some entrance, he thought, and had a moment’s satisfaction imagining Miss Piggy sashaying...
When Kermit is working, he is full-on, head-down engaged. He could survive anything (even prison) if he has a show to work on. We all know this.
For Piggy, the only thing that ever substituted for Kermit's undying devotion was the adoration of her fans. Even Kermit knows this, bribing her...
Piggy's voice was absolutely amazing in that song. She was born to sing torch songs, and this was written for her. (No, really--it was written for her--lol!)
I did have a couple of quibbles, which are not, I hope, mean-spirited, but thoughtful. Here they are:
#1 Celine Dion needed to get...
I can't believe I'm admitting this out loud, but the song I have played the most on my MMW soundtrack is..."Moves Like Jagger." The only thing I can say is that, when I wrote this, I was obviously under the influence of muppet awesomeness. Here's what had come of it so far....
Smells Like...
Ru: Okay Fozzie, let's get these brownies down to Ed's apartment. I think he needs some serious chocolate with all the work he's got lined up.
Fozzie: Okay! coming! (sounds of munching)
Ru: Um, Fozzie--are you eating the brownies? Those are for Ed!
Fozzie: (sounding embarrassed) Um, you made a...
VERY we'll-said, dear! Although I am shamelessly fond of AVMMC, I just languished in depression during the time Kermit was so mean to Piggy. I have to admit that this movie has many fine points (especially once I stopped looking at it as totally autobiographical and more as "there is truth here...
I do adore the Wendy Williams interview because she does treat Piggy as the grand diva guest star that she is. She trots out the shoe cam (fabulous shoes) and the ring cam to check out Piggy's accessories.
Speaking of accessories--what the deuce happened to BK, Piggy's signature ring. In...
Dr Tooth--has anyone HERE actually said that they didn't like the movie because Jason and Amy weren't in it? I have not seen anyone here say that. Many fans here have given cogent, articulate reasons for what they liked AND what they didn't. You don't have to demean or denigrate those who hold...
I appreciate al of your comments, but it is simply not true that they were never a couple before the last movie. As I keep sayong, I rember them. Look for the video where Johnny Mathis sings"Never Before" at a muppet anniversary show. It's awesome. Go back to Muppet Family Christmas. Those of...
I have to say something about the interviews. I avoided most of the pre-movie publicity because I had not liked some of the things that I had heard/seen, but--thanks to the wonder of the internet--I have been able to catch up with the interviews. I mentioned above that Steve and Eric have got...
I read an interesting explanation of why that might be so. The muppeteers all were on call from the moment this movie began. No intro, no plot set-up-just straight to the musical number and everybody gets a line! This is a cast and crew who LIKE each other, so this was a treat, I am sure. Also...
Kisses and Heroics: Some Thoughts
Um, I'd like to offer some alternative views about Kermit's behavior in the helicopter scene (from what I offered before). While I do think that he is brimming with testosterone and indignation--from having rescued his woman from another frog, during the...
