    6/24/05: Statler and Waldorf reviews at Movies.com

    This time around it is Dave and Steve doing the characters and Bill doing Pepe. I think the writing for Statler and Waldorf is better too. In MWoO it wasn't so great and the S7W stuff on Muppets.com isn't so good either. I hope we see more of these and maybe even some Fozzie on some comedy...

    Something I've been wondering about Bean

    I actually think Bean shoud have been an evil bunny too. That evil bunny thing went no where. Perhaps something with them was cut.

    Now for some real movie critics...

    No, a test segement was done with low level performers around Oscar time. It was posted on the web and had a pretty low production vakue. Apprenbtly the feedback was good so they decided to make it a real regular spot for them using Steve, Dave, and Bill this time. Also the production value...

    So now what?

    That sounds awful.

    MFS-disappointment!

    Yeah, MTI was quite original. Instead of making the characters fit into the parts they made the parts fit the characters. I thought it was done quite well and really felt like a movie. MFS never feltl ike am ovie to me. I don't hate it, but there are lot of things about it that I do hate...

    So now what?

    Yeah, AVMMC was really a muppet show based movie. It was like an extended myuppet show with no guest star or regular skits. What else could a Muppet Show Movie be other than AVMMC? A hour and a half long regular muppet show? I'm not opposed to continuing the old muppet show with the...

    If Doc couldn't see Fraggles, why was Uncle Matt so easily visible?

    Wow, I'm surprised no one has come across this thread in over a year as well. Well, I do not remember much about Fraggle Rock, but I do remember one episode in which Matt visited a sheep ranch. The guy sheering the sheep just picked up Matt and sheered him too. So, since this is the only...

    So now what?

    Not really. You want the same characters with the same theater. Obviously the material would be new, but is it really a new show or just the old show being continued? I'm sure people would want Pigs in Space back and I am sure people would want Vet's Hospital and all that stuff. Sounds more...

    Oz DVD to include 20 minutes of extra scenes

    Well it is possible these are things that were cut for time, not content. There was a funny Santa scene in AVMMC with Bobo and Kermit that was cut, not because it was bad, but because they just needed stuff to cut down on time.
  10. MWoO

    So now what?

    I think you guys are trying too hard to hang onto the past. I mean do you really want a rehash of the same old muppet show? Why? Because it is familiar? While I did enjoy seeing the Muppet Theater in AVMMC, I don't know if they should just rehash the show.

    Something I've been wondering about Bean

    I don't think the joke from Rizzo is some kind of look into Steve's mind. It's a bit of a strech. Speaking of MFS comentary, during the doctor's in the hall way scene Rizzo actually talks like Kermit vecause apprently Steve got a little confused there. The line is "See?" after Rizzo...

    MFS-disappointment!

    Just a point about "I'm Going to Go Back There Some Day". I believe he was looking up at the sky because he had been flying up there with the giant pile of baloons and he loved it because it was flying. I don't think he was talking about an alien world. In Muppet babies there were a couple...

    MFS-disappointment!

    Original? I think not. It was anything but original to find out Gonzo is an alien. Seemed like a rather obvious path to take. Also we NEVER got a look at his origin. In the trailers we were told Gonzo was an alien, and that is all we got from the movie as well. We didn't even find out his...

    So now what?

    What do you mean it didn't do well? It got 11 million viewers.

    So now what?

    I hate the wedding idea. It's hacky and over done and would be awful.
  16. MWoO

    So now what?

    What we need is another movie movie. That is to say another movie that is a take on some classics of the past. GMC was a classic "who done it?" movie. TMM was a classic on the rode typew movie. MTM was a classic broadway type movie (kind of like singing in the rain). They tried the whole...

    How they operate the Muppets

    Well I don't think there is ever a floor seen in the shot, unless it's done like that picture where the performer is in a trch like space and the floor is seen in the back ground. It's all an illusion really. I've never seen a floor during a Chef skit.

    When would you see a floor??

    Does Kermit love Piggy?

    Oh yeah, that was a great scene.
  20. MWoO

    Does Kermit love Piggy?

    Yes. He just isn't comfortable expressing it.
