    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    You have no sense of humor. it was all in jest. It wasn't about sending messages to kids, it was about joking around. Piggy's skinny line will not turn young girls into ridiculously skinny super models. Clam down. And why are you calling Ashanti trashy? I didn't see anything trashy about...

    Why is Steve Whitmire the voice of Kermit?

    It was really touching to see Kermit show up at the end. The way they were talking about Kermit in the special it was if we would not see him or hear him again. When he showed up at the end it was like Kermit saying everything will be ok. I'm not sure why it too longer to get Steve as...

    Who does Rizzo play in OZ?

    Rizzo had a fair sized role. He showed up 2 more times in the movie to delivery great lines. Also, Steve plays Rizzo and Kermit, so it is tough to have them together.

    You also have like 5 channels. The US has litterally hundreds. Plus it was a friday night which is a bad night for TV in general. The addition of Star Wars at the movies didn't help either.

    A question about Palisades' paint

    Try his collar. It was a bit tacky.

    Why is Steve Whitmire the voice of Kermit?

    That's what a lot of people think but it was most certainly Steve. Steve was actually going to become an alternate for Kermit I believe. I believe JIm and Steve had a conversation about it. While Jim didn't plan on giving up Kermit anytime soon, he was planning on taking on a lot of stuff...

    JHC planning Dark Crystal sequel

    I like the idea of adding to the story, but like other said a prequel would actually be more appealing. I do hope that this can turn into a series of various epic story movies. I also hope they use mostly puppets and real sets and models. Combining puppets and CGI would be Jim Henson's dream...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets' Oz CD

    OH! If it has computer multimedia files that means it could have video files or music videos on it! That's a reason for me to buy the sound track if I find it at Target. In the movie Jonny is kind of Wicked Witch Piggys boy friend. We never see Piggy return his love though. It might be...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    The original story also never has a frog for a scarecrow, pigs for witches, or rats for munchkins. I don't see why a black Dorothy is even something to question with all the other stuff.

    A question about Palisades' paint

    Yeah, it was only series 8 and to a point series 9 but that was more wet paint than sticky. I don't remember any other figures with tacky paint and i have every regular series figure and a number of exclusives.

    Positive Oz Rating Breakdown

    So the total viewers were 7.8 million? That's less thab AVMMC, but he movie also had to deal with Star Wars so I guess it's still quite good.

    Leave Disney alone

    Yes, he was nearing the end of a deal to sell the entire company to Disney except for Sesame Street. Jim wouldh ave remained in creative control though. He probably felt that with Disney's money and promotion power he could turn out better productions and he could have done more stuff. If...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    Exactly. Most of the same people that hated this idea from the start still hated it. So they were against it from the start. And I don't care what anyone says, Eric is spot on with every character he's taken over. Is it a little different? Sure it is. Is it the worst voice ever? Heck no...

    If Kermit stops hosting...

    I think the only reason Clifford was made the host was because he was a character almost no one knew at the time. So they could easily manipulate his character abd create a host. Plus he was a character performed by Kevin Clash who ws a main performer at the time and hopefully will be again...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    There is a Jim Hill article that says the Disney lawyers made the writer's take out every reference to the movie for fear of Ted Turner sueing them. There were suppose to be jokes and stuff dealing with the MGM film all over the movie. One thing I'm surprised at is that there wasn't a new...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 36

    Perhaps they did that because tiny BB was done against green green and Matt was available for tapping that day when Carroll was not. I thinl it is a good idea to mix p BB voices. This way kids can easily get use to the change when Matt eventually takes over. Sad to think about it, but...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    Actually I did somethig similar simply because I never read the book before. I didn't go as far as to say the book was wrong though. lol I did find it weird to find out that Piggy's character was originally a guy. I actually preffer the MTI version.

    " So 'Girls Gone Wild'...um, whats so bad about that reference? A video tape with some toplessness. OH NOES! We can show people getting shot to death on tv but no toplesses. God bless America! We live in a country where half the magazines are gun and hunting magazines...where the millitary is...

    "The Muppets' Wizard of Oz" disappoints - Jim Hill
