Jim Henson Idea Man
Remember the life. Honor the legacy. Inspire your soul. The new Jim Henson documentary "Idea Man" is now streaming exclusively on Disney+.
Bear arrives on Disney+ The beloved series has been off the air for the past 15 years. Now all four seasons are finally available for a whole new generation.
Well, Disney DID make 911. If you want to believe something crazy, go ahead. After that dumb movie was made, Disney said it wouldn't release it, so a Canadian company released it. Just because I don't like Moore doesn't mean I don't keep up on the news. Moore was on Leno a few nights ago and...
Uh, yes there WAS info on Jim at the old website.
And NO the Henson company did not make teen sex comedies like Touchstone DOES and Disney also made the stupid Fahrenhiet 911
And NO, the Henson kids had TONS of money. They just said that they wanted to do other things. So they do them now...
Oh my God, it is horrible. That website is like a dentist's office or something. It is also all in Flash, which is crap, and the fonts are too small.
But the main thing is that Jim Henson information and pictures of him without Kermit the wonderful frog is NOTHING to be feeling good about...
These are only my opinions. Don't take me too serious :D
Benefits? Yeah, I guess there would be "benefits" if you sold them to drug dealers, too. The benefits are tiny. The bad is big. We lose the Muppet Magic.
I am SICKENED that NONE of the Henson kids want to make the Muppets their...
"The Muppets will find a way to shine?"
"Ditto!"
Give it up, guys :D
Jim is dead, and his own children don't want the legacy of Kermit. I can't believe it, but there you go. Their dead bodies have been sold off to a giant crap company headed by goofballs and idiots. Mr. Henson's...
"While Disney may not be perfect, the company has done plenty good over the years."
What, like the teenage sex comedies, the abandonment of 2D animation and driving Pixar away?
You have hope? Disney makes kiddie crap. How can you hope for good old edgy Henson style Muppets from kiddie crap...
Hey I am only trying my best to dump on Disney. I am not a fan of Moore, just a hater of Disney :D
A hater of Disney for good reason!
What good stuff has Mickey done lately? What more can I say?
Here again is the sad mouse :cry:
Here I am playing catch up again :D
Yippeee the final nail in the coffin (sarcasm).
"We're talking the Muppets here, a product with history, with an already strong fanbase."
Yeah, we're talking the Muppets here, whose reinvention of puppetry for TV can be copied by anybody now, and...
Low case goods, I feel the same. It's like giving your kid away :D
Everybody says the HEnson kids need their own lives. Well, fine, but it is a tragedy that they want to turn their back on something so wonderful.
And yes, Disney IS SO BIG that they can afford a few million bucks to buy...
WHAT WOULD I DO???
Take a risk :D
Find somebody COOL and talented. The guy who directed Muppets From Space was a big nobody. Go look at his bio in the IMDB.
Is there not ONE COOL and talented guy to direct? Get a moron nobody, and get a moron movie, people don't like it, others...
" Because at the end of the day, people will believe whatever they want in spite of evidence that might prove them wrong."
Whose evidence then?
No, we are too sophisticated Muppet fans. We know the difference. And the others in culture know, too. In this months SPIN magazine with kurt...
Well yahoo and whoopee, the Muppets are turning into TV crap time. What a special talent Simspon is...NOT :D
I hate to look to be "negative" but all these projects sound bad. People will be tuning in for "Wizard of OZ," not Muppets. Do these people have ZERO original ideas?
People are...
Hey, I like new members too. I said it was maybe a coincidence. But of all places to post your FIRST post, why here? And then the numbers for "yes" Disney go up.
Just makes me laugh a little to myself.
Hee heh heh :D
As for Luke, yes, we agree to be different. I was just providing...
Heh heh heh :D
I have to laugh a little bit. A new member comes on board, starts up here in this thread, and is dreaming of Disney made Muppet blankets, and everybody talks as if it is normal goings-on. Then the DIsney "yes" poll numbers go up.
Heh heh.
Oh come on. Maybe it is a...
"the creative renaissance of the Muppets"
Yes, even I admit Disney was amazing...many YEARS ago :rolleyes:
Today Disney is a giant mess crashing around making money because it is so big. The successes and good feelings come from the past of Disney. You are expecting a "creative...
"You certainly DO need a "little more knowledge" Mark...the quality will be largely upto them - not Disney."
Last time I did some checking, the owners of something are the bosses.
What we are coming down to in the bottom line is this:
You have faith in Disney :zany:
I have NO...
1: Media icons
I am just saying that Disney equals Mickey, and not Kermit. If Farscape was a monster hit, Henson would still not replace Kermit the icon with a Farscaspe character, it would stay Kermit (if they still owned Kermit, that is).
DIsney will NEVER EVER sell Mickey Mouse. So...
Oh yes I DID PREDICT RIGHT, Luke. You can't have your "cake and eat it too." :D
All you guys tell me to lay off because the Henson kids deserve a life of their own. Well that is FINE with me. I always said it is THEIR building and THEIR company, so what is to argue? I agree with the...
