Just curious if their are any California area puppeteers interested in taking part in a rather ambitious Star Wars independent film(or "fan film") that will be filmed partly in the bay area and central CA as well as in other parts.
There's been a few Star Wars "fan film shorts" made, but...

``Dick Cheney and the Republicans have decided to go hunting for `Big Bird' and `Clifford the Big Red Dog' once again," said Representative Edward J. Markey , a Malden Democrat who led the...
...well, sort of. I've been keeping up with the Sundance Film Festival, and one of the biggest hits of the whole thing seems to be a new documentary called
"The World According To Sesame Street", a pretty interesting look at how Sesamet Street has to be adapted to meet the sometimes harsh...
Now before ya automatically gag ath the idea of more overtly cutesy SS merch, I can attest that some of this stuff is pretty cool. Especially the OScar merch, which has this very camoflauge meets 70's art style that's pretty swank. So yeah, Sanrio put in a whole Sesame aisle.
Some years ago a Bear in the Big Blue House direct to video movie was planned. Now that even Fraggle Rock is getting a film, any chance even just a direct to dvd Bear feature will be made?
Got to see MirrorMask in Berkeley last night, and the year and a half wait was well worth it. It had been 6 years since I last saw a Jim Henson film in theatres,
so this was quite a treat. MirrorMask is without a doubt a visionary and texturally evocative movie experience. It was nice seeing...
I was bored so I decided to draw myself as a Muppet:

I also launched my new zany adventure manga comic site(dont worry, its very G/PG rated)
Any news on the Electric Mayhem mini figures? For those that saw the pix, they looekd way better than the regular 6-5" line version. It would be an absolute shame to see these never released. Heck I'd pay $50 for a set, they are that darn cool.
Btw, does anyone know where the pix to these...
Haven read his blogs for several years, I now must say the following is the best article I have read...as it gives an insiders reccomendations to truly bring back the Muppets in an old but new light:

They are on the fast track with this one! Shooting begins this Fall for a 2007 release. We might actually get DC figures someday!
Well well well, the long awaited 1977 special Emmet Otter's Jugband Christmas, a MUPPET special...is being released by HIT...MINUS the Kermit scenes. Are the Disney lawyers that crumudgeonly to give a rat's behind if there's a few Kermit scenes in there? Henson is trying to play history...
I have long considered Muppets Wizard of Oz to be a lame duck so to speak, even before the Disney buyout. To me it wreaked of early to mid 90's JHC(AKA the dark ages)
However, some recent pix on ABC's website show that a good chunk of this film may very well have our beloved furry friends...
Any word on when the Electric Mayhem minis, Penguin, Uncle Deadly, Kermit on log, etc will be coming out? The sumemr con season will be coming soon, and I haven't heard any word on the release of the final Muppet figures. When will these be available online?(the penguin 2 pack, Rainbow...

'Cause make no mistake, folks. A lot is riding on how well this new Muppet TV movie does in the ratings. If "Oz" wins its time slot that night, I'm told that Disney will greenlight production of a new Muppet TV movie (Possibly...
It's 2005...so, any Dark Crystal figures yet?
Since 1998 on here we've been wondering when the Dark Crystal figures are coming out.
