    How did you become a fan of the Muppets?

    I remember watching and enjoying the Muppet Show more than Sesame Street. In 1979 at the age of 5 I remember watching the Muppet Movie in the theater. I remember the drive there, the drive home, the conversations I had with my folks and fearing in the middle of the movie when the Swedish Chef...

    Zemekis/Disney To Remake "Yellow Submarine?"

    I think this is just a case of revamping something that is already in fine shape. What Zemekis and Disney have been doing these days is kind of like what Ted Turner did in the 80s by colorizing movies or what George Lucas and Steven Spielberg did in this last decade by painting over the classic...

    The Muppet Central Freelance Writers Guild Project

    It has been nearly a month since the first wave of articles were submitted (proofed and everything). Just a friendly reminder to the "powers that be" around here. MC would be a much more heavily trafficked site with a steady flow of fresh quality content written and proofed by these eager and...

    Electric Mayhem explosion at Hot Topic

    Well, I did check the Hot Topic website and they do have some very attractive Dark Crystal and Labyrinth shirts. :scary:

    Electric Mayhem explosion at Hot Topic

    This thread is 7 years old (from 2002). Many changes have happened to Muppet and Henson merchandise since then. You can find stuff in all sorts of places now. Tshirts can be found at 80s Tees, create your own at Zazzle's Disney section and figures can be found in all sorts of places...

    The Brand New Ask Jim Lewis Thread

    Hi Jim. A few fun answerable questions from me this time. The Muppets are filled with all types of characters. Is there any particular type that you feel is missing? Also, if you had the choice which classic dormant Muppet character would you personally like to dust off and and write...

    The Smurf's Triumphant return!

    Bad news about the direction of the film. :rolleyes:

    Dark Crystal Manga 2 PREVIEW!

    The characters look more like classic elves than Dark Crystal gelflings. It's the people noses. The art is more attractive than I remember. Very strong line art. It still makes me long for the new Brian Froud led comics that would hopefully get it all right. All the unique gelfling qualities...

    Disney Goes Anime

    This is the Miyazaki margin for me. I loved Howl's Moving Castle, but found Spirited Away irritating. I think it has to do with HMC having a more linear plot while Spirited (beautiful visuals aside) takes an avant garde approach that emphasizes the language barrier in a way that makes it less...

    Animal collar replica from the Muppet Movie

    My payment went out this morning. You should receive it very soon. Note the little Animal return address stamp. Took a little extra time, but it's now on its way. Woohoo! :halo: I'm very excited. :)

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    An item that could explain hold-up in Fraggle Movie financing. I think the Fraggles could be a BIG hit for Weinstein. They really need to fund the film and get it off the ground. The Fraggles could very well save a failing film company. However, these things are said about this and other film...

    Disney Goes Anime

    But along with the Hannah and Jonas kids (Noah Lindsey Cyrus and Frankie Jonas) they did include so many surprisingly good stars to dub for Ponyo. Cate Blanchett, Cloris Leachman, Liam Neeson, Lily Tomlin, Betty White, Tina Fey and Matt Damon. They're covering the bases there. The one...

    The Muppet Central Freelance Writers Guild Project

    Maybe some of it would be. I hope my post didn't seem obnoxious, there's just a lot of things to consider in integrating a page onto a site. I have a lot of clients that don't understand the complexities of quality web publishing. Tough Pigs and Newsflash have a lot of the same hoops, but a...

    The Muppet Central Freelance Writers Guild Project

    As someone that actually does this for a living the answer is - no, it's not quite that simple. You don't just save a word document as an html file and upload it. If it were life would be a whole lot simpler and I would have had a lot fewer sleepless nights working for clients! ;) Each page...

    The Muppet Central Freelance Writers Guild Project

    I'm glad to help. You guys have worked so hard to pitch, create, write, edit, proof and submit content to facilitate the process so that the only things left are formatting and upload. Those aren't simple steps in a site like this. It takes a chunk of time that only the webmaster can do. Maybe...

    Wow, that's unfortunate. I'll see what can be done on my end. :super:

    Muppet Peter Pan

    I'm resurrecting this thread due to Amy's posting of the new cover art she did for a future issue. Beautiful work!

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    Really? I thought it had another month to go after the final Robin Hood comic comes out. Either way I'm excited. Great cover! Sometimes the threads get buried. I'll see if it can be found and resurrected. ;)
