It's fairly standard. Summer movies are often released on DVD before the holidays. Iron Man just came to DVD last Tuesday - right under 5 months after theatrical release. The Dark Knight is coming to DVD right under 5 months as well. And I hear the Dark Knight will have a special edition figural...

I have always said Rosie should produce her own specials like the Barbara Walters ones around the Oscars. Not unlike Miss Piggy, Rosie is a solo performer who better plays off other people she likes than she plays well with others in general. Whoopi, while funny, merely seems to show up for the...

Thanks for that review. Phillip should post that on the main site! :wisdom: A Sesame special without Big Bird just isn't right. It's kind of like a Sesame movie taking place in Grouchland and kicking Oscar to the margins...oh, I guess that did happen. :grouchy: I do like Abby, but I do...

Any snapshots? I would be interested in seeing them! :o

Can someone write a review of the DVD? Is Big Bird in the film at all? I can not comprehend a Sesame movie without it's main bird! :wisdom: Is Abby the new Elmo? :grouchy: I miss my classic characters, but I might actually get this if I hear good enough things. :super:

The Muppet movie will propbably be a highlight next year. They really are laying down firm groundwork for it an probably don't want to jinx it. Also it appears the Weinstein's Fraggle Rock movie is much further along in development that they might be holding back news to keep clear of confusion...

The Cheetah Girls Piggy clip from The View doesn't give me much hope. I know the pig's supposed to be out of step with the routine, but she also seems to be out of touch in her own right in that number. I adored her appearance on The View, but this clip isn't quite up to the earlier standards...

I'd say all of them should be told. Set a wide net and hope to get at least one bite. Luke's idea is so perfect. Bears have their own appeal to collectors. A lifesize replica of Fozzie would certainly be a bigger sell if exposed through these various bear retailers. :o

They made 1,000 fewer Animals so that stands to reason. The Gonzo really is very good once the eye focus is corrected. I have had him for months and still can't stop fidgeting with the weirdo. He isn't perfect, but of the three he's the only one that made me verbally squeak with glee upon...

Installment plans. I thing finding a factory that can achieve Fozzie’s correct facial subtleties is holding this product back and driving up the price. Such quality craftspeople are expensive. Those subtle facial proportions, along with the unfortunate photography, are why Gonzo and Animal...

:search: Tough Pigs usually stays away from product promotion of that sort and have appeared to refrain from talking about the replicas except for a handful of posts. A poll would be nice, but unlikely. There’s already one here and one at MR so I think the Muppet and corporate angles are...

Many ad firms will try to push the limit with funky commercials they don't think will really make the cut. This appears to be one of them. Did it only play on Spanish television? The credits appear to reflect that. I don't know? I thought it was funny. I preferred the actor before the chocolate...

Wow! Well that's the way to do it. Great job. I would have never thought of that. If I had a little Scooter of my own, I would dress him in hats...um...not sure if that came out right. :o ;) Incidentally, the area on the back of his jacket that houses the logo for the Muppet Theater actually...

Thanks for pointing that out. A bit of pronoun trouble. :o It has been corrected.

Fran Brill Celebration Menu :zany: In this menu the site's red arches drop in as usual. A banner that reads "Celebrating Fran Brill" appears above the usual Muppet Central logo. Twinkling glitter sparkles briefly while Fran's characters pop up into the arches along with Fran Brill herself to...

Back to the Fuzzy Renaissance. What is the one character, project, product or special thing you think the (now Disney owned) Muppets have been missing that you wish they'd bring back? :flirt: I hope to see more Scooter, Rowlf and Mayhem. I would like to see a new Muppet Show or at least...

I voted in both forum poles. It is unlikely for Fozzie to be made at an SRP under $500. Just giving you a heads up before voting. I would like him at $350 myself, but I voted the any price option. I Just wannim! :o

I don't believe CGI will kill itself, but it will eventually recede into being more of a filmmaking tool rather than the genre it is being exploited as now. However there will always be companies that cheapen media in all sorts of ways whether it is CGI, slapped-together overseas animation...

I'm used to writing image descriptions of the menus and felt the need to do so here. The color-saturated, pop-art backgrounds are back, but the characters are more neatly cut around the edges here. The logo they use is a white version of the one they've been using that features the...

The ones in the middle are MR's proposed Mayhem prototypes. I just don't see the reason for them. They would likely be pricier than the figures were (or maybe even pricier than an Ebay Zoot), but they don't have the attention to detail the figures had. You would think the lack of articulation...
