Very good news! Thanks Bryan! It's also interesting to hear they are updating the puppets. :)

Kermit toilet wha? :eek: Sydney is (actually) the gay capital of the world from what I've heard. I think you're right that the Muppets' walking a fine line has kept the Pig from getting too big in the gay community. In my experience gays do give the pig a lot more love than the rest of the...

The leadership over at Henson seems easily distracted. None of those statements give me confidence that I had before hearing them. In fact, the wording has caused me to lose a bit of faith. :sympathy:

Yup, once they went to watch TV in the other room everything seemed like a few choice characters going through the motions. A lot of fans wanted a show made based off their living situation in that film. That could have been really fun - if it actually seemed like anyone lived there. I guess...

Marketing the Miss Piggy Poser Suppose I have to clear this up like is always the case when the word gay is mentioned on MC these days. Gays should be able to be mentioned here without fear of this sort of weirdness that happens all too frequently in recent years. :mad: (The bolding here is...

Type in the "w"s. In other words, don't just type in muppetcentral.com, type in www.muppetcentral.com. A couple browsers like Firefox require the full addy to activate Flash portions. Silly, but that's how it goes. It's a good idea to type in the "w"s anyway. ;) Hope that helps.

Um...he never said that the characters were only for the gay community, just that they are particularly big in the gay community which is true. Don't understand the knee-jerk reaction to that on your part, but to us, Miss Piggy is up there with Judy Garland, Marilyn Monroe and Madonna. Of course...

Great stuff. I have bookmarked it! :)

I just want to see the actual new EFX Kermit model. I'm kind of strangely stoked about it even through it is a reissue. :)

The staff is aware and encouraging the articles to be published. Layout can take time. You got the staff in your corner. I promise to be whatever (respectful) pain I can be to get these on the site. :super:

I wouldn't want my replica deteriorating on its own and I'm not buying them (for a small fortune) in order to have boasting rights to others. I want to enjoy them for years to come. A replica can either be an exact or close copy of the original so slight alterations shouldn't be out of the...

Sony doesn't clean up their movies as much as other companies so I wouldn't expect a complaint. In fact, many people actually complain that they don't give it that "fake" look. However, unless you're old enough to have seen the original run in the theaters, the subsequent transfers have lost...

So far... Boom Muppet Show & Muppet-based comics Archadia Labyrinth & Dark Crystal comics with Brian Froud involvement EFX Rizzo Poser, Reporter Kermit Poser, Miss Piggy head mold for Poser

I don't believe in setting arbitrary limits that come in round numbers. There are times that the Simpsons got tired and many felt it should be cancelled, but it gets better in waves and it is going strong. Tastefully bowing out is the best way to go, but if they still get a fan base and everyone...

I always felt it went a little like this- Frank already had one foot out the door in order to focus on his time-consuming and successful directing career before Jim died. Getting him back to do his characters even for the Henson Hour was a scheduling challenge. Having Jim gone didn't help him...

I don't see where this thread states that Jennifer Connelly bad-mouths the film. However, she has been notoriously evasive and dismissive when talking about Labyrinth throughout her career (until recently). It's a well-known fan fact; seek out all of her interviews where the film is mentioned if...

I think it's wonderful that the Dark Crystal and Labyrinth comics have been rescued from the previous artists at Tokyo Pop. Even though I'm not a manga fan, these weren't even very well accepted in the manga-reading community at large. The fan base was very limited. Creator Brian Froud helming...

I agree. Fitting a poser is different than fitting a puppet. Maybe it's my feminine side, but the clothes need a tad bit of tailoring. Kermit's more dapper than he appears there, but it's just a prototype. :)

Here it is. I hear they have some great displays at the con. It all looks so promising. Burton and Alice are a good fit. :sing: :flirt:

Didn't someone state here earlier that they'd hammered out the music rights for season 2 and beyond? Maybe that's not true? It is a huge feat. I'm sure we won't have such difficulties with Muppets Tonight later on because it was made in an era of the Home Video market. Maybe the placement of...
