Cool clip. Oh, and a past job at a video store with an "expanded library" provided me with too much information about many things. Eeeek! Just know - yes - the clerk does know a customer's rental history, but - no - he/she usually doesn't care because they wait on so many freaky people in an...

I think the quick cutting was a poorly executed effort to make the Muppets appear more "matter of fact" than puppet to an audience unimpressed by the art form. That is a common mistake made these days with the Muppets and puppetry in general. The characters sustain credibility just fine if given...

Since nothing is listed for pre-order yet I wouldn't count out a season four stand-alone set. There's been no firm confirmation that Hit *won't* be releasing both, just that they are releasing a series set. :coy:

I take it you're more of a Fraggle fan first and that's great. I start at the classic Muppet Show and Muppet Movie and go from there. There's been the odd-obscure Sesame character name that pops up that I don't remember even with my affection for the program. I usually just keep that to myself...

Thanks for clearing that up a little. I wan't to see more of the rogue Piggy! The freaky wild-eyed Piggy and the wide-cheeked Piggy just don't do it for me. Their Statler and Waldorf are really beautiful. The Animal chin hair gets to me a little bit. Their Kermits seem to have different head...

About The Puppets: It used to be the practice under Jim Henson and the Creature Shop that there usually wouldn't be multiple puppets for any given character. When one puppet would wear out a new one would be built using parts from the older one. This does not appear to be the case anymore -...

I like Antz edge too. The Danny Glover ant's decapitation scene still creeps me out. He kept talking for a while after! Eeeek! Surf's Up (actually from Sony's fledgling animation studio) and Happy Feet (from Warners) were released less than 6 months apart. We all know animated films (even the...

I have noticed a few threads prematurely closed in the past, but not so much lately. The moderators do have a tough job. I wore that hat once and never want to do that again. I'm sure there are others pleased about that too. I have noted that usually General Discussion threads receive the...

Deflated rather than Delighted...but Hopeful for the Future I had every intention of liking this special for what it is, but where were the jokes? It's not an embarrassment, just forgettable (with only a couple of cringey moments for my older-long-term-fan sensibilities). I have a feeling this...

Ugh! I'm on the west coast so there's 30 more minutes of waiting...:sympathy:

I liked the hamster bits in the Bolt ad. This is from the same part of the studio that brought us the enjoyable (but void of the Pixar touch) Chicken Little and Meet the Robinsons films. I have to admit to really enjoying both of those movies. They existed for more than mere CG status. Both...

I just think Miss Piggy deserves to match her wonderful performance. :)

Not So Hog Wild About The Pig This comparison picture is an estimation of how I think Miss Piggy could be improved. It's a quick and crude mock-up, but this is a bit closer to how I'd like the pig to look. Thoughts? :mad: :)

The DC stars are not really the "stars of today" as much as they are the kid's cable stars of the moment. Even so that's exactly what the Muppets need and they're getting it. Disney is finally trying to show them some love. This may be foreign to classic Muppet fans, but this is an honorable...

Thanks! The busts are really great except the Fozzie is truly a sore thumb (I can't complain too much because of the infamous Tux Fozzie figure). :o The only other bust that I consider a must have is Dr. Teeth. Theirs is the measuring stick as with Rowlf. I had to replace my Beauregard bust...

I've moved some stuff around (and really need to dust) and here are some of my Muppet Shelves containing the Kubricks, Critters, Star Wars Muppets, busts and more.

It's the Disney Channel fans that seem to be uploading multiple clips of this special! That makes me smile.

These are just the producers so who knows. Maybe they'll snag a good director that can bring this film the care it needs.

The list of films are ones that the producers listed in the article worked on before: Broderick Johnson & Andrew Kosove: (producers) Lost & Found, Love Is All There Is, My Dog Skip, Dude, Where's My Car? The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, One Missed Call, P.S. I Love You, The...

Don't Panic! I doubt that they'd merely release season four encased in a box series set. I don't know of any other series of DVDs that does that. That being said, they could release the box set before the single version of series four to stimulate sales of the special edition, but they'll...
