The music video featuring Jim Parsons alongside Walter, Jason and Jason's Muppetman.

Kev, you would love that show!!!

Yes, these are the ones that have been out for a while. They're not perfect, textured and articulated renditions, but they rival anything we got before Palisades Toys and the smaller sizes, from 2.25" Rizzo to 3.75" Fozzie Bear, are perfect for every collection. The paint-aps are okay, the...

I agree with your insights. ;) My post was replying to the initial question. It was a great part of the movie and it's fantastic that people are responding to it. There's a lot of other stuff too, but this was a highlight for me. And yeah, I kind of knew it was coming but it was done so well I...

They do some really creative things (Stuffed & Unstrung is amazing) and have a wealth of ideas, but they're missing a strong leader to shepherd them into being.

Sigh. The Henson Company keeps floundering between projects; dropping one just to pick up another. Then back and forth. Pick an idea and see it through. Come on! Fraggles, Skeksis, Happy Time Murders...

I'm a lifelong Muppet fan and the Jim Parsons scene was definitely one of my favorite parts of the film.

Yeah i think citing Jason Segel's previous work as an issue when working with the Muppets is a completely :p silly complaint that doesn't bear in mind any sense of history. The Muppets aren't Beaver Cleaver goody-goods. They're for everybody and have included performers like Alice Cooper, Ozzy...

Youtube the Real in Rio song. It's pretty awful. But they'll probably have time for Billy Crystal's opening number. So they do have time for some songs. Hmm...

Hahaha. Yeah, I really think that the academy ruled changed a few years back and we're seeing the strange fall-out. I too think that Life's a Happy Song should have gotten some recognition along with Menken's Capt. America tune. It really is fantastic and would make for a great Oscar stage...

Withholding the nominated best song performances is a big mistake that helps to conceal the bigger one - the evident bureaucracy of the nomination process. Only two rather obscure songs were nominated, the quirky Man or Muppet and the irritating monstrosity Real in Rio. Was it a thin year for...

Settled? I think even a casual glance at this thread reveals that this will ever really be settled. The point is - who cares? Only prejudice people! Muppets exist in the abstract and should never be completely defined. Some fans will see a gay couple and others will see roommates and both are...

Sending you reference in a few minutes.

Yeah, I read some of Corey's take on it, but he didn't seem critical enough if that was the case. Maybe that's wise. I'm not sure if you are aware, but the correct spelling is Weinstein not Weinstine. It makes for a more legitimate argument against a person or company when you spell their name...

I noticed that with the Smurfs Movie too! Ugh, definitely a film created by committee. It was a cynical choice that ended up paying off to a tune of $563,749,323 worldwide. It doesn't seem that Weinstein understood the Fraggles' appeal. But I'm not totally sold on Corey Edwards either after...

Thanks. Yeah. I'm seeing the same sort of ugliness with these that I see in some of the Vinylmations. Their Miss Piggy is so unappealing. The problem here is that they're going against the grain instead of fusing both the styles together. My little comp is far from perfect, but it's the...

I agree about the Gonzo nose, but I actually really like that style and it can work for the Muppets. Just not like this. My problem with these is that they aren't using the same type of design as they did on the other Disney characters. This type of toy is for those who expect to see that sort...

where the heck did he get that? I wannit so badly!!

i've got to admit to initially being excited about these, but (except for Teeth) the art doesn't quite have the charm that it should. I've worked at translating designs onto urban vinyl so I get the attempt at simplification. The Little Big Planet people nailed a lot of the art whereas this is...

like, wow! :flirt:
