Okay, the musical numbers look fun and cute, but isn't this film about 10 years too late? I loved the Taco Bell dog, however is this sort of chihuahua-based gimmick able to sustain interest for an entire movie? I'll probably wait until it hits cable, ABC or the Disney Channel. :rolleyes...

A Very Merry Thought-Out Post Balance It's been a heated but healthy conversation and that's what forums are all about. I do think some members have been unduly harsh on the performers and even though I disagree and it makes me a little sad - nobody has crossed the line so far. A forum...

I drool over that Gobo like I do over Oscar, Ernie and Big Bird from Sesame's nixed line. You're right that the beautiful figure you have is still an early prototype. The points I remember that were up for revision were particularly hair (soften and feather), face (tweak proportions around...

:coy: Here's a picture from the Wiki! :smirk: Keep in mind that Ken and the Palisades team were still working on major revisions especially in the hair department. This prototype (while extremely cool and pretty) is probably only 75% of what it would have been. Ken was really keen on pushing...

Actually I was wrong there. Both Doom and Gremlins were rated PG and led to the PG-13 rating's creation about a month later. The Wiki says: The MPAA introduced the PG-13 rating on July 1, 1984 warning parents about potentially shocking violence, cursing, and mature subject matter that may be...

I think they're trying to keep things PG-13. However, it was Temple of Doom that created the PG-13 rating and that had plenty o' gore! Some critics and others think that ratings don't matter when figuring in film performance, but they do. It's -one- of the likely reasons why Iron Man will...

:) Travis Posting in this thread adds twenty minutes to your life! (And not "brushing your teeth" minutes...like really fun minutes with beer and pizza.) Hey, it's worth a try! ;)

Speed Racer is beautiful but suffers from poor writing, a bloated running time, lack of direction and upset the fan base from the start. Except for weaving a little of it into the score and making a generic hip hop version of it - the recognizable theme song was hardly in the movie! They only...

Thank you for that. Sums it up nicely. There will never be an entire reproduction of Fozzie, Piggy or Kermit. There is an art and evolution to it. One that works for me, but maybe not everybody. :) :mad: :o

This sounds solid! This is the guy! Even though it's a departure from his other films he seems to get it. Maybe he's taking a cue from Segel's anticipated Muppet film in his approach? :busy: Some points: -The story outline is comprehensive, solid, fire-tested and Henson approved. -The...

I think you're right. I've heard Kevin Clash performed a lot of Miss Piggy's film and Muppets Tonight work that was later dubbed. I don't think his style of puppeteering was as good a fit. I also think it is more of the medium. I think Eric is growing into the role and that's what it takes. That...
