A strong undercurrent of America is this virulent thuggish, criminally minded "gangsta" subculture. It crosses into impoverished white, black, latino, southeast asian, and other cross sections(though admittedly, most closely associated with inner city black youth) The Moopets perfectly shines an...

I stayed farrr away from that one. Then again, while I also avoided Catwoman, I did greatly enjoy Superman Returns and Watchmen...so not all non Nolan Batman DC films I feel are lame. Heck a lot of Marvel films I find a bit tedious to sit through

Actually, I felt that Jim Hill was one of the best torches of hope throughout the "dark" period of 2004-2008, when it didn't seem like anything was ever going to happen with the Muppets. It's not until really Fall of 2008 when things started to get exciting. I'm a big fan of all his Muppet...

Id be more excited about a Behemoth(AKA "Gene"), Carl or Sweetums plush:)

Weird they don't have an official site where you can do that, but that works for me. I don't want to buy off ebay if I have to. But this is probably going to be one of the only new Muppet items I buy this year

It would not surprise me if they just release a bare bones dvd, with maybe a commentary, trailer or a featurette. That sadly seems to be how Disney does it. Tron Legacy? Didnt have a SINGLE extra on it. None. I'd recommend people just download the ripped version if Disney was to pull that baloney.

I live in lame boring anytown USA suburbia, but in the past couple weeks I've talked/met so many cute college aged girls just out in about running errands/school/etc wearing various Muppet shirts(or hats/other garments) Sure, nothing has come of it thus far but I realize for a lot of guys on...

For some reason it became a pandemic with (more Irish background than Italian Roman background) Catholic institutions. The statistics on Catholic related sex abuse crimes is staggering, even from their own internal investigations. I don't even have a theory as to why it is, but it's interesting...

One of the headline news the other day is how Haliburton helped destroy evidence and coverup their intentional shoddy work and other other factors surrounding the Deep Horizon drill explosion. Haliburton of course, the no bid energy contract company that once had Dick Cheney as CEO and who had...

I just wonder what moral, spiritual or social harm is done between two loving faithful gay or lesbian couples. I mean I get the views on drugs, heavy drinking, s&m, swinging, etc. While Im sure a portion of the gay male population is out there looking for random hookups or casual dating, an even...

Right...but I must ask, as I do of all Christians I converse with who believe homosexuality is a sin... is it the sexual aspect that gets the spotlight? There's a lot of things written as scripture both new and old testament I recall that noone in the modern world would even bother adhering too...

I was raised Jehovah's Witness unfortunately, they call themselves Christians but hate all other Christians and believe anything other than JW teachings is apostasy. The funny part is they don't see Christ as playing any sort of central role to anything, yet they still maintain the Christian...

Right, but I was referring to nutjobs like the late Falwell and West Boro Church. The types that think they had the power of God to cast deathly judgement. I think it was both WBC and Falwell, perhaps even Pat Robertson who said 9/11 was God's punishment for America allowing same sex marriage...

Fozzie has a really abstract, almost existential brand of avant garde performance humor.

Yeah man, all you'd need is this picture on etsy or any other craft selling places, and there'd be quite demand for em: http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3636/3424985277_50c18e2f99.jpg 800 home made muppet items on here, and Disney ain't going to do squat:)...

AMMMMMAZZZING! Better than any Rowlf Disney could put out IMHO. That is seriously cool. Also, you definitely could make some good money selling those on etsy.com Half the stuff on there is homages to Nintendo stuff thats way cooler than anything Nintendo could officially put out. Also very cool...

wait, its possible to order directly from disney for the star wars figures? will it be on the official disney store or is there some other site you have to go through? Id love to get these by christmas

The Muppets have(thankfully) always been extremely liberal. The anti war and songs promoting peace on the Muppet show, the spoof of social conservatives with Sam the Eagle, all the interviews with Jim Henson stating his views, the very gay friendly atmosphere, the pro environmentalist message

OCCUPY RICHMAN!!! OCCUPY SESAME STREET!

Well I'll say, Jim Henson said his point of Fraggle Rock was to end war. So you could call that liberal, tho social conservative Ron Paul is more anti war than most Democrats. Meanwhile, the Republicans who tried to shut down PBS and Sesame Street(who also used Sesame Street songs in brutal...
