I've seen most of the specials listed, but I flat-out refuse to watch Studio DC: Almost Live, seeing how I can't stand the teen stars Disney cranks out of their factory. I probably like Frog Prince best, since it introduces Sweetums, one of my favorite Muppets. Taminella Grinderfall scared me...

I must disagree with your last statement. I worked hard to research the company I worked at before going in for an interview, and knocked my interview out of the park. Still, I can't entirely disagree with the nepotism thing; I work a low-level job, and the higher and better paying the job, the...

I wasn't really bullied much in school, although I sort of became my own bully in high school with my struggles with self-esteem. When I was in elementary school, there was a kid in my class, Jason, that everyone bullied, myself included. I deeply regret the way I treated Jason, and I'm sure my...

That sounds like the coolest clothing store ever in existence:eek:. When I was a kid, there was also a Chuck-E-Cheese type place up by my grandparents' house in Reading. Can't remember the name, but the mascots were two monkeys dressed like kids. It was similar to Chuck-E-Cheese, except that...

I'd like to see Roger Langridge do a Rocky & Bullwinkle comic. He's sort of becoming the go-to guy for comic book revivals of classic kids' franchises (The Muppet Show, Popeye).

Yes, we had a DZ up by the Lehigh Valley Mall, but it's been closed for nearly 2 decades. There was a Chuck E. Cheese's a couple blocks away, which is still there, so it's obvious who won the draw. Haven't been to either place since I was a kid. In a nutshell: DZ was a giant indoor playground...

To each his own. I just never felt they lived up to cameos such as Steve Martin, who was simply uproarious as the goofy waiter:).

I vaguely remember doing the Backlot Tour when we went to WDW 5 yrs ago. I definitely remember the steamroller and the Toon Patrol car, don't remember the eyeballs. I'll have to get pics this time. The billboard was definitely there 5 yrs ago, I believe it's located in the shopping district of...

Bah, curse that whole "Region" thing with DVD players:grr:. I tried to watch Robocop on my mother's labtop a week ago, but it said it could only play Region 1 DVDs; so far as I know it IS a region 1 DVD, but my mother says there's something wrong with her DVD player. So I couldn't watch Spitting...

Yes, I saw the same billboard when me, my brother, and my father went to Disneyworld about 4 yrs ago. Guess it's been there awhile. I've always wanted to go on Roger Rabbit's Cartoon Spin, but unfortunately it's only in Disneyland, not Disneyworld, so I guess I won't be going anytime soon:sigh...

I agree with others that TMM was virtually flawless. I didn't like "Never Before, Never Again" and think it's the worst song from the film, but rousing hits like "Movin' Right Along" and "Can You Picture That" more than make up for it. Also, the carnival scene celebrity cameos seemed very rushed...

As long as the puppets themselves weren't built by Henson's & co. they're still "Non-Henson" puppets, even if they're performed by people who worked on Sesame Street. I like Spitting Image, I'll probably get it on DVD at some point. I don't get much of the political humor, since I didn't live...

Yeah, don't know if I can get into the whole Disney Pin thing; they seem very overpriced to begin with, and the few I have (mostly Muppets) I don't feel like trading in. Maybe if I see one that REALLY blows my socks off I'll buy it. Most of the ones I have I got at a local antique mall for $2...

Under the Umbrella Tree! It's been SO LONG since I've seen that one. I definitely didn't watch it as much as The Muppet Show or Eureeka's Castle, but I remember it nonetheless. There was a lizard and a bird, can't remember what the 3rd puppet was. I also remember watching the Letter People on...

Yes, I'm going to WDW in a week, and will be on the lookout for RR merch. As I've mentioned before, it's easily in my top 5 fav films of all time, so I'd like to see more be done with the character. I'd like to see a Toon Patrol PVC figure 5-pack; it seems like a no-brainer.

Look, it's not like I'm trying to step on anyone's toes, I just didn't know there was already a similar thread, which hasn't been posted in for two years. I don't think there's anything wrong with identical threads, provided they're not created around the exact same time. How many "Who's Your...

Oh yeah, can't believe I forgot about the puppets from Pee-Wee's Playhouse, I loved that show as a kid.

If it was created by one of Henson's closest associates and collaborators, I feel like it shouldn't count, but I dunno. Anyway, I watched the opening and closing for Eureeka's Castle on Youtube a few days ago and was surprised by how familiar it seemed, seeing how it's been 20+ years since I'd...

Link has become one of my fav Muppets. I hope he has a larger role in Muppets... Again! I have the Sideshow Weta Link Hogthrob bust in my curio cabinet.

How about Electro's look for the film? I know they only released one set photo, but clearly they're not using Electro's original Silver Age look, which really doesn't stand the test of time. It looks like they're going more for his Ultimate look. I loved Jamie Foxx in Django unchained, and I'm...
