    Fraggle Rock Complete Series Collection coming this fall

    Reportedly the final season will also be available for sale seperately. No need for angry letters. :coy:

    Marvin the Martian movie in the works

    Checking on the team behind this made me queasy. Just a bunch of kiddie flix, dudes losing their cars and Traveling Pants pictures in their past. Seriously, I now feel like Marvin is being treated like a random property rather than something special. :smirk:

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    Oooh! And they got the Muppets.com plug in there at the end. Kermit's a great showfrog and promoter! The pig was funny too. Something about the puppets looked a little off to me, but I can't complain. Is this the Puppet Heap company deal with the building? I somehow wish they'd get the...

    Marvin the Martian movie in the works

    My WB & Looney Tunes thoughts: I feel that Chuck Jones was the heart of everything good with the Looney Tunes. He created Marvin the Martian, Pepe le Pew, the Road Runner, Wile E. Coyote and many others. Friz Freleng and Tex Avery round that out as the other two crucial...

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    Oooh! When did this happen? That could actually be a good idea. Marvin is a classic Chuck Jones creation that seems to have been lost among the others on basketball t-shirt marketing. It could be done right or it could be done very wrong. I'll keep high hopes. :flirt:

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    Agreed! And even though I love puppetry I see the Muppets as characters, personalities not puppets. I just don't usually think of them that way.

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    I think they already have that and in a recent interview (I'm sure someone could find) Eric and Steve talk precisely about voice vs. embodiment of the character just as you have. That is what they have been doing all along and quite well IMHO. Singing voices are inherently different than...

    Help me pick new shoes!

    Before you get your hopes up they are sold out! I got my pair a couple years ago. http://www.pickyourshoes.com/casual/adidas_adicolor_g4_stan_smith_kermit.htm That green actually does match the Kermit poser. The only problem is not much goes with these shoes. I always get looks or...

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    :insatiable: Disney’s tween stars are artificially colored and corn syrup sweetened product. They can be a treat, but with little nutritional value to them. Who knows their actual value until they have left the Disney machine? That’s not to say the company is bad – they give young hopefuls a...

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    Nice list. I agree with 98% of it. I was thrown with Amy Grant (bad memories of long childhood car trips listening to her El Shaddai cassette for hours at a time...cringe) but you made up for it with Cyndi Lauper! I think the Muppets will soon have suitable stars knocking down the stage door...

    Help me pick new shoes!

    Why the flat soles? I need that arch support in most modern shoes, but if it's flat soles you want they are coming back in style. Some people have flatter feet than others. My problem used to be getting shoes wide enough, but that seems to no longer be a problem most places. Ben Sherman...

    Fraggle Rock Complete Series Collection coming this fall

    A friend of mine was upset that he got the individual Soap sets rather than the series box. This will put him at ease! Terrible packaging! Sony is usually better than this. What the Fraggle are they doing? :smirk: Good thing Fox is releasing the box set. :coy:

    The Dark Knight thread.

    The latest rumor for circulating on Rotten Tomatoes and elsewhere on the web is that Jolie is interested in Catwoman for the next Batman film. I don't know what to think yet. Sure, she could do it, but I'm still waiting for her to star in the Sin City sequels. :flirt:

    MINDstyle to make 25th Ann. Fraggle figures!

    You must not own a Sababa Wembley because that is false. They did provide more gold strands in his hair (his hair is actually made up of more than one color but not quite that striking), yet the rest is spot-on the best one I've ever seen! Not horrendous - beautiful! :coy: I also wouldn't...

    Your Thoughts: Authentic Animal Replica

    I hope this helps: First - don't panic when you open him. He looks wild and weird and un-Animal-like. He's huge too. But he does settle into a beautiful poser with rather minimal work. :halo: The mouth hinge issue with Animal isn't ideal and the removal and/or replacement of the tongue...

    2008 Menu Descriptions

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

    Fozzie Muppet Replica delayed

    I'm wondering that too. Part of me hopes the alter their plans for the figurines and/or make some revisions to them. Here is a depiction of the Palisades regular assortment of Electric Mayhem Muppet figures, the Master Replicas figurine prototypes and the unreleased Palisades Muppet minis...

    Fraggle Rock Complete Series Collection coming this fall

    I just hope it doesn't come in a Fraggle pebble. It'd be smooshed! :smirk: :coy:

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    I have to admit to disliking the Miss Piggy and Kermit hammy performances from what I've seen. They also managed to make Kermit look kinda fat with unattractive expressions that don't seem to fit him. However this is still too early to tell and I'm keeping a positive outlook. The Milley Cyrus...
