http://brianjayjones.com/ From Brian Jay Jones' blog: It’s a been a lonely year for this blog, I know. Looking back, I see I’ve written exactly five entries since January 2012–an anemic pace, to be sure. I wish I was one of those prolific blogging machines, but the truth is I’m not the...

http://www.emmytvlegends.org/interviews/shows/muppets-celebrate-jim-henson-the Check it out. Really great clip in which director Don Mischer talks a bit about what happened making "The Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson."

http://www.dsoundz.co.uk/2012/08/07/labyrinth-the-25th-anniversary-podcast#.UDaJTOUX1uI Did anyone see this? Really great interview with ACH Smith, writer of the "The Dark Crystal" and "Labyrinth" novelizations, as well as many of his own works.

http://oceanhouseevents.com/?p=4690 I was rather shocked to discover Dave Goelz himself will be performing in Rhode Island for a one-night event. If I can get down from New York City for Sunday, I'm so going! :-D

Great (but short!) interview, where Oz talks about the Muppets and a little about directing TDC. Another good one:

http://soundcloud.com/mikemetalbabins/metal-file-july-12-2012-alice Starting at 5:53. Really funny little bit. He talks about how he would forget they were humans, how Miss Piggy was interested in him, and so forth.

Well, Sorta-interview. More of a Q&A with Puppets. Given that we're coming up on the 22nd year without Mr. Henson, I decided to upload this video I've had in my collection. I'm sure you other Muppet nerds have seen this/own it, but I thought I'd put it up. More to come. I'm in finals at...

Post-Dark Crystal. I love this. Usually, when we get an interview with Jim Henson, it's edited. This is straight-through, with opening and closing bits. It's so strange. Surreal. Especially the last bit, after the interview, where he's just talking.

Eric Jacobson and Steve Whitmire are hilarious.

http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/201112020036 Yeah. No comment.

http://www.digitalspy.com/movies/news/a354348/breaking-dawn-tops-us-box-office-for-third-week.html I hope it pulls through. :( I don't want to prove Tex Richman right!

Here's one thing that irritates me a bit about the new generation of Muppet Performers. Well, not the performers themselves: they're great! But I feel like it's a disservice to Steve Whitmire (I know, he's old guard), Eric Jacobson, Bill Barretta, etc, etc, that in interviews, the muppets are...

Thread title. If one (former) Jim Henson property is wildly successful, will that serve as a gateway for his other creations? A Dark Crystal Sequel? A Fraggle film? What say yall?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYtn0VqHN-E http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jjejivCK_A A compilation of behind the scenes clips! Edit: Looks like they're going to green screen out the hand rods? Also, SPOILER: Looks like Kermit doesn't actually live in the mansion. He just cleans the pool. :)

I really hate to ask the question, but I was looking at their website for internship stuff, and it seems that the Henson Company is trapped in the glorious past. They've sold The Muppets. They've sold the Sesame Street characters (sure, they make the characters, but don't own them). They don't...

I'm currently going to school in New York at The New School, studying film. There are no puppet classes here, and I would really like to take some. When I was a little kid, I did stuff at the Eugene O'Neil in Connecticut, with the Puppetry Conference, but I've never really had the chance to...
