:confused: I wonder if there can be a limit to the number of sequentially placed ! and ? marks like is already in place with the 3 ... period marks? I do know that when we first had smilies they would overtake posts. I enjoy using them too, of course. Eventually they had to be limited to...

:coy: I remember watching the old Fraggle Rocks as a kid and (glorious as the episodes are) noting the green-screen edges especially around Fraggle hair. Many people have raised concerns about CG effects and modernizing the "look" of the Fraggles. :busy: I think it's great that this film is...

Beaus do it...Prawns do it...even agitated Frogboys do it :cool: We all muffin and I don't see much problem with it. I was just seeing if we could keep things in check. I'd never want to rid MC of something so Muppety as funky random comments. Honestly I didn't particularly mean Beau and...

;) I enjoy a good running gag as much as the next Muppet fan. I have also helped fuel them at times. Lately threads are being overly muffined. It would be fine if it were occurring on uninteresting or dead threads, but please, my fellow MC members, don't spam the vital ones. There's enough...

:) Remembering Jim Henson :p In this menu the site's red arches rade in as usual. A banner that reads "Remembering Jim Henson" appears above the usual Muppet Central logo. Twinking glitter sparkles briefly while Jim's characters pop up into the arches along with Jim Henson himself to the...

I got the same thing you did out of that post. A little confused. Not only did the new Fraggle movie's writer Cory Edwards also write and direct Hoodwinked, he also lent the voice for the film's popular character Twitchy. However Doogal is all a Weinstein purchase/dub/distribution of a...

The loss of Jerry Juhl is the only real concern I have. He will be the hardest one to replace. He really knew his Muppets and Fraggles. Jerry was the heart and soul of so much. That's what likely makes the story element in this tough. But there's enough of the original cast that gave the show...

Fraggle Movie Heart :excited: I just don't think Karen Prell, Dave Goelz, Steve Whitmire and the rest of the cast would perform in a Fraggle film without heart so I'm not worried. If it's on the page they can do it and the script approval process is probably responsible in part for the slow...

I actually liked Hoodwinked. Basically the company bought the technology to make an animated film and created this experiment. Some of it worked, some didn't. The animation resembles the current state video game art. The story is fun. There are some fun songs, cute moments and great characters...

Undue Pessimism It's a biopic of a person who made his living mostly behind the scenes, passed away in 1990 and is many years out of the spotlight. That's quite different than a Muppet or Fraggle film. :coy: It is much too soon to play devil's advocate when they're still shopping the...

Just makin' sure. On the contrary here writer director Segel's going back to the Muppet roots before they lost their way in space, snarkiness and classic literature. :flirt: :sing:

Charming and uplifting way to look at something we have little information about. :smirk:

A few pre-“Beethoven” and “Midnight Run” Charles Grodin films of note: 1968 - played Dr. C.C. Hill in Polanski’s “Rosmary’s Baby” along side Mia Farrow. 1972 - starred in Neil Simon’s “The Heartbreak Kid” with Cybill Shepherd. 1976 - starring role in Dino De Laurentiis’ 1976 version of...

Why wouldn't they? It's not like he commands a high paycheck. The only thing that would likely stop a Grodin cameo is Grodin himself.

:) Hi and welcome to the forum. It's a little-known fact that the Muppet puppets have to be rebuilt every several months because the materials degrade quickly. Older Muppet characters that haven't been used in a long time (like Annie Sue, Dr. Julius Strangepork and Uncle Deadly) would likely...

Many films are made by smaller independent companies and eventually get paired with other bigger distributors upon release. This is what I'm thinking about the Henson biopic. In this scenario Empire would team up with a Fox or Miramax in the post production and marketing phase. Work prints...

One Arena Not Suited For Elmo :grouchy: An Elmo film was a bad idea because the limited number of kids that target age that can actually go to a theater and sit still that long. The furry fella doesn't have enough of a following from us nostalgic older Sesame fans to warrant a trip to the...

Thanks. I was a little irritated by the naysayers there - most of whom know little about Fraggle Rock in the first place. I also keep reading accounts around the web where it is stated there will be no CG and others stating it will be entirely CG. Both statements, from earlier accounts, are...

Actually there was a rumor that The Muppet Movie syncs up with Nirvana's Nevermind album. Take that as you will. I've never done it and don't really see it. Who knows? :cool:

I went over there! :coy: I just posted this over there: Henson Co & Cast Back. Global Market For Fraggle Film! by frogboy4 :excited: Fans, The Henson Company and Fraggle Rock’s performers have been waiting for this news for a very long time. Nobody will let them mess this up – that’s...
