    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    Early publicity for The Muppets also had grpup photos featuring generic rats but not Rizzo, and in the end Rizzo only appeared in the background (and there were a number of scenes with generic rats but no Rizzo). Though Rizzo was featured quite a bit in publicity and interviews (sorta like...

    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    It would be great to at least see a little bit of various recurring segments in a montage. I wonder if they would build such sets that would only be used for a few seconds in a montage (I know, they could just green screen and cgi the backgrounds). I'd be surprised if any of the classic sets...

    'Downton Abbey' gets the 'Sesame Street' treatment

    Wow, these last few years we've gotten Frank Oz performing one-shot characters in parody sketches, and all of them are parodies of shows I'd never heard of previously (I think I might have heard of Mad Men before the parody). And with the exception of "The Heaviest Catch" all these segments are...

    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    I didn't mind any of the spoilers, but I hope they don't over-do it with the parody trailers. I enjoyed the first three teasers/parody trailers, and then the real trailer... But when they started doing parody trailers again after the official trailer came out, I thought "Really??" I also felt...

    Silly things you said, did, or thought as a kid

    Back when Jim Carrey started to become an A-list star in 1994 and I started to learn about his pre-Ace Ventura roles, I had a number of odd things in my head regarding what I thought occurred in his earlier roles. I first misread the title "Peggy Sue Got Married" as "Peggy Got Married", and...

    Honkers based on Harpo Marx

    Muppet Wiki doesn't say anything about Harpo Marx being an inspiration. According to Muppet Wiki, Tony Geiss came up with the characters, based on his own childhood habit of honking his nose. Unless Harop was Geiss' inspiration for honking his own nose, then I guess not.

    Who owns the rights to what?

    Currently the blog that contains all these scans has two posts concerning those legal forms/whatever. The second blog post has pages involving lawsuits. The person who started that blog said on the toughpigs forum that he hasn't posted everything from those documents, and is unsure whether he'll...

    Your Muppet mistakes

    I remember a few mistakes I made regarding The Muppet Christmas Carol, before I saw the movie, so this was based on the trailers. First, there's one scene that was in many commercials where Miss Piggy says "whatever!", her voice sounded a bit deeper and more man-like. I noticed that and thought...

    Little things we've noticed

    I've noticed that on The StoryTeller, characters who get forced to serve end up getting fair payment anyway. In "A Story Short", the Storyteller gets punished for tricking the cook and the king decides that for his punishment, the storyteller must tell one story a day or get cooked, and the...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Makes me wonder if Halloween is Grinch Night airs in october, november-december, or at all each year. Well, for the last several years I've been watching ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas each year, and hadn't noticed that special airing (doesn't mean that I haven't missed the advertising)...

    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    While I am glad that the reason for the Muppets being in Europe is because they are on a world tour due to their celebrity status (and I assume newfound popularity after the events of the previous film), judging by the plot I actually feel like it'd be better if this film took place in a...

    From Broadway With Love

    I feel mixed about whether one performer should take over everybody from the same performer. Back in the 1990s and early 2000s when recasts were occurring they didn't stick to just one performer for each character, unless maybe there were multiple characters who had the exact voice. And even...

    The Muppet Show Comic Book: The Four Seasons Graphic Novel

    I thought I read that it was coming out, but I would have thought it would have come out in december (considering one of the issues is themed around Christmas). If it's just now released (as opposed to a few months ago) then I guess that explains why I hadn't been able to find copies at...

    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    Yes, he wore his original vest in the last movie. But when you mention the leather vest, are you talking about the black leather vest he wore in the 1980s (The Muppets Take Manhattan, Rock Music with the Muppets, A Muppet Family Christmas, etc.)? Because I don't recall him wearing that anytime...

    Tina Fey in Talks for Muppet Sequel

    It's been reported on Tough Pigs that Tina Fey confirmed during an interview after the screen actors guild awards that she will be in the new movie. Her scenes will start filming in march. I'm a little surprised that her scenes will start filming a few months after it starts, if she is a main...
