    Article On Disney Animation: Is It Fading?

    Yeah, but there really is a place for everything - including digital projection. Some films work better with it (the Star Wars ones) but I hope it doesn't eventually take over every film release. Film is just so dense and rich.

    Cool perspective. Love your avatar!

    Meet the Feebles on DVD?

    Hey, it even offended me and I enjoyed it. LOL! I don't think it's something you will enjoy so it wouldn't be best to buy it. If you really are curious, rent it. Be warned - that film can get nasty. And Jim's darker sided didn't include any of what this film does IMHO.

    Official word on Farscape cancelation; news on movie and anime

    Some people just like Sci-Fi stuff. Makes perfect sense to me. I'm more of a Muppet fan myself, but people like what they like. I never said they hated the Muppets, the Farscape fans I know just aren't enthusiasts. They don't need to be enamored with both. I have never understood why some people...

    Official word on Farscape cancelation; news on movie and anime

    I have met a lot of non Muppet enthusiast Farscape fans. It's weird.

    Your Thoughts: It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas

    The monkey's name is Sal Minella (Brian Henson) and the lounge siger is Johnny Fiama (Bill Barretta) and they were barely in the special. I don't see how that would affect your opinion of the film. Blink and you would have missed them. They were big Muppets Tonight regulars, so they seemed to...

    Article On Disney Animation: Is It Fading?

    That's true too. Film just captures my attention more. I notice digital projection right away - and not really in a good sense.

    a great Playset/Figure Set idea?

    Hella Long Post With the limited run, I don't see the price point being the issue. People are just not noticing the product. I feel that it's the same way people didn't respond to Muppets Tonight. 95% of the people I have asked about the show never realized it was on. Muppet Show product has...

    Article On Disney Animation: Is It Fading?

    Digital video has considerably less depth and very apparent pixels. Solid blacks also look strange. If you see a film in it's first weeks of release, you can avoid seeing lines and pops. I am a film purist. I find digital film projection good *in its place* but wouldn't want it to take over all...

    Tux Bunsen and Beaker photo!

    Some people have even complained about Vacation Fozzie, until they actually held one. And some continue to not want one. He did wear sunglasses on The Muppet Show and wore the hat in the Belafonte number. The floatie and shirt were just fun. And the suitcase sticers were a great touch. But the...

    Tux Bunsen and Beaker photo!

    There are all sorts of variants to choose from. These are just two. I think people will be getting a lot for their money. Especially when this unnamed exclusive character comes out. I just don't like to see the moaning about every tiny decision. Just seems silly. Tux characters are fun, and...

    a great Playset/Figure Set idea?

    I believe they will work through the licensed years - in one form or another - no matter what. There are ways to get the most out of it, but after paying a hefty fee, they will want to use the license. I'm still miffed that JHC hasn't help push the busts (which don't seem to be moving that well...

    You have to separate Tux Rowlf from the other characters when you are discussing tuxed figures. Why? Well, this discussion was brought up months ago. Tux and Regular Rowlf were to come out around the same time. The piano and accessories are slightly different and there were complaints about...

    Tux Bunsen and Beaker photo!

    Tuxes are Muppety. They wore them in the 30th anniversary celebration and in The Muppets Take Manhattan. It's just a fun tux version. Geez. It probably was either that or nothing. They need to be cost effective. It's not lazy at all. Nobody is being forced to buy them. :rolleyes:

    Did anyone else wish that Miss. Piggy was cut out of Muppet Movie?

    Um...I changed schools and combined my 11th and 12th grade into one year. Worked through the summer. Whooh! That was a year. :D

    Official word on Farscape cancelation; news on movie and anime

    He sounded bitter to me. I was never a fan of the show, but appreciated it was doing something different than other Sci-Fi shows. (No names ;)) Hey, maybe they'll make a Farscape Voyager or something. You never know. (Only kidding). The truth is, the bone-heads at Sci-Fi would have rather...

    Remembering Richard Hunt

    This menu kind of snuck up on my, I have to admit. Scooter is one of my faves. Janice too. It has been clear that the Muppets weren't right without his characters. Richard made such an impact on the Muppets and the gang wasn't quite right without them. I hope to see more Scooter, Janice and the...

    Did anyone else wish that Miss. Piggy was cut out of Muppet Movie?

    Actually - 2 in kindergarten and the first grade. I had a girlfriend every year of school until the 11th grade. Hmmmmm. LOL!
