It appears that there is a spike in sales of the Follow That Bird DVD according to Yahoo Movies website today. It lists the current top 5 theatrical films, television programs, albums, video rentals, video sales etc. Is this part a misprint? VIDEO SALES 1. "Sesame Street Presents: Follow...

The Sony Metreon in San Francisco has a new kiosk with a Muppet plush selection. There are so many properties represented that it's cool they thought to include the Muppets, but these guys? They're so ugly they're cute! The assortment includes: Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Animal, Swedish...

:attitude: It's nifty being able to include a link in the body of a post. Please, please please make a note when embedding video, audio or time-intensive links in your posts! :eek: Not every user is viewing at home or knows to adjust the volume of their viewing station. It is a common...

:) This is a low-res cell snap shot of the valentine I gave my partner. Thought I'd share it after uploading it for him on the web. He is a Donald Duck fan and I most identify with Gonzo the Great so I felt this fitting. It's hand inked, pencil-colored and cut out into a self-contained...

Didn't see a thread on this so thought I'd post now that it came! (if there already is an active thread on this feel free to get a mod to lump this one in with it) I did get both Muppet calendars - monthly (kinda boring with over-used stylized images border lining on garish) and daily...

It seems this year there aren't many offerings for holiday film fare. Most of the budget seems to have been blown this summer. That being said, here are my top five films I am most looking forward to this season. :) 1. Sweeney Todd - most interesting remake sort-of-film in a while! Burton...

I finally decided to make an official inquiry in the appropriate forum section. :eek: Except for a tiny mention in a related article last year - Tinseltown has received no coverage on the Muppet Central website. At least there should be a link (with a possible publicity shot) to Henson...

It appears henson.com has re-launched with a slighly new look. It's an improvement with room for tweaks here and there. I'd just like to see more content. Puppet Up and Tinseltown seem to be getting the most press here. And the company is using the old "ha!" Henson Associates logo for Henson...

:o Alvin and the Chipmunks Movie :concern: Release date: December 14, 1997 Directed by Tim Hill (Muppets From Space, Garfield 2) Yes, that Tim Hill. The poster didn't give me much hope. Creepy hip-hop-look and sneakerless chipmunks. Click Here for the poster link But, the...

:D I've been away from the forum for a while, but it has been drawing me back in recent days. Here's a couple links to my latest Cross Breed character, Squeaky (based on my partner). http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb6/frogboy4/squeaky_color.jpg...

:) This particular segment of today's show should have fallen under O'Riley's "Silliest Item of the Day." Some funky author (Ken Tucker) has published a book titled: Kissing Bill O'Riley, Roasting Miss Piggy. In it he discusses his picks and pans of modern pop culture (as if somebody asked him)...

I regret my absence this past year. I am currently investing in a new computer to replace the antiquated money pit. There are several more menus I would like to contribute and it would be great just to hang around here more often. :cool: The Palisades guys have things well in hand and I...

:D LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS - SAN FRANCISCO I have been kicking myself for over a decade after having missed the original off-Broadway run of Little Shop of Horrors by a matter of weeks. Last Saturday night was an event in my life that has been over fifteen years in the making. The spankin’ new...

This review is encouraging. I'm not expecting it to touch anywhere near Roger Rabbit quality. (but what can really beat a Spielberg, Zemekis, Disney film with cross-over characters anyway?) This initial Associated Press review is encouraging. Some of the commercial gags look very much like...

Most of you guys that know me are also aware of my unnatural obsession with Cyndi Lauper (yes she is still alive). Her last album has been delayed for over two years. They released an EP a while back and another greatest hits last summer but she hasn't had a full-fledged CD since Merry...

http://www.garfieldmovie.com/home.html Their site is now online, but doesn't have much content yet. You can catch a glimpse of how the new CG Garfield will look on the main page. Looks like a good compromise (unlike Scooby Doo). The film has some major voice talent too. Check out the lineup...

www.jamesvier.com/etc/vetsbeans.jpg Not that thrilled about them, but they are tiny.

Lisa Henson's current bio over at the Good Boy film site is very interesting. I'm not certain if anyone has caught this but it cites her for "overseeing production of Five Children and It...in addition, she is working on a feature film development of the next Muppet Movie..." The new Muppet...

http://www.jamesvier.com/etc/news_screens.jpg Some members wanted a printable version of my customized Newsman figure screens. They are 300 dpi and the file size is 250k. Feel free to use them if you'd like. :)

:) Has anyone checked out the new Spiderman cartoon on MTV? What are your thoughts? I'm not a big fan of 3D taking over traditional animation, but this is a very interesting direction. There are still some issues with character stiffness and lack of expressiveness, but the beautiful visuals make...
