I wonder if Lips is actually starring in this or if he's featured among other characters (like if it's actually starring The Electric Mayhem). Dave Goelz mentioned that Lips had a line in something the performers did in winter 2013 (which we assume was a deleted scene from Muppets Most Wanted...
I wonder why they need to know who built the original puppet in order to use it. Do the puppet builders have to get paid every time a puppet they built gets used or something?
And it's interesting that the original is going to be used, when a new one was built a few years ago. I wonder if Lips...
With Steve Martin, while his stand-up comedy shows were successful and he was one of the best SNL hosts, his film career was just starting. This movie came out the same year as The Jerk, which is often cited as his first movie (though I think Internet Movie Database lists TMM before The Jerk on...
After looking at Cut Lex Luthor a Check, it seems like I misunderstood what the trope was about. I think I talked about it here before, as I didn't think the trope title exactly made sense, but previously I thought the trope was for villains who use inventions or other resources to become rich...
When Steve Whitmire was interviewed for Tough Pigs back in 2008, he said that Disney surprisingly hadn't put the performers under contract, and that all Muppet performers under Disney, Henson, and Sesame Workshop are freelance performers. Not sure if it's changed since, but I doubt it.
Years...
I don't see the lack of a "Play All" button annoying. When watching DVDs of TV shows or shorts I usually watch whichever ones I feel like, as opposed to watching everything in order. It sort of makes me wonder if it's such a big deal for DVDs of TV shows to have the episodes in order, since I'll...
I don't really know much about James Bond, so I'm not the right person to ask. But I will mention that the video game Spy Muppets is basically a Muppet parody of James Bond, with the villains being Gonzo as Dr. Nose (Baby Gonzo also took on that role in an episode of Muppet Babies), Miss Piggy...
I know that there's a season 14 or 15 episode that featured Roosevelt Franklin's Alphabet (or was it Roosevelt Franklin's Days of the Week?).
These posts of audio recordings of episodes reminds me that Steve Whitmire said in his Muppet Central interview that when he was younger he would record...
The Fraggles did befriend a silly creature. They befriended Doc in the last two episodes. Though years ago it was said that the Fraggle movie would "stand next to" the series as opposed to directly following the events, so I'm sure the Fraggles will continue to fear the Gorgs, Doc won't know...
Chapter 9
Everyone was running around, screaming, as the theater was falling apart.
"It's a shaky start", said Waldorf.
Then the theater box fell off the wall.
Walter then ran in, in spite of everyone running around and the theater falling apart.
"I tried to warn you!", said...
Recently I read that 20th Century Fox only has the distribution rights to the Star Wars sequels and prequels (but not the first) until 2020, after which the rights will revert back to Lucasfilm (and therefore Disney), which was part of the original deal with those movies (though it's odd that...
Years ago, when Tough Pigs reviewed an old draft of the movie screen play (I'm not sure if they're still going to do this or not), it was mentioned that the plot did involve them going out into the real world. For years before the movie was ever even announced, I felt that if there ever was a...
Don't know if I'm missing the point, but Henson still owns the rights to that one. Though I doubt Disney would have made it available by now if Disney got the rights.
I mentioned this elsewhere recently, but I feel like Sam the Eagle got a slight boost in prominence during the 1990s. Sure, he was missing from the albums and Muppet Classic Theater, but in The Muppet Christmas Carol he got his biggest role (at the time) in a Muppet movie (in all previous movies...
Somehow I get the feeling that if The Newsman was cut that he wouldn't have been mentioned in the announcement.
Really? I don't remember any Muppet Mindset articles that criticized the movie in a major way. I'll have to reread Ryan's articles on his set visit (or did somebody else at Muppet...
I wonder if there should be less long segments and in its place put in more letter and number segments. A few years ago I think somebody said that the show often only had one segment for each (not counting the Letter and Number of the Day segments that lead to the letter/number segments).
