    All Cast Christmas Menu

    Luke I lilke the Hoobs. Warrick just doesn't find them Hoobygroovy. That's what I was playing off of. Penguins? Hmmm. There might be another penguin somewhere. But you didn't hear it from me. This menu was a way of getting a bunch of faves in one space. It was actually more of a challenge than...

    Collecting the Mayhem Band.

    Salmoto In another thread we discussed the guitar-amp attachment. I am keeping MOC versions of the figures, so I altered the loose versions. I snipped the guitar cord on the amp side. If you use a razor blade it won't leave a piece sticking out. And it's best not to clip the cord from the...

    Hmmm. You can bug me anytime. Don't know if it will help though. :) Maybe I'll make an all Hoob menu! Just kiddin!

    Vacation Fozzie review

    I noticed that my Invisible Fozzie's magnetic hat works differently than the rest of the hats. it works, but backwards. Just thought that was funny. Tried to switch out the hats out of curiousity and it repelled. LOL!

    Article On Disney Animation: Is It Fading?

    Fantasia 2000 was cool, but I count it as a different sort of film. Plus I was disappointed in it. Just didn't live up to the first. Emperor's New Groove? Didn't like it. Cute, but not worthy of Disney. I feel the same about Groove as I do about Rockadoodle. LOL! Didn't like Aladdin...

    Vacation Fozzie review

    Great review. This is clearly the best exclusive made to date. I encourage everyone to search this one out. Don't get what you mean about a difference of neck joint. It's the same limited ball joint as Reg and Inv S Fozzie. Maybe I read that wrong. The coloring also seems a little different than...

    All Cast Christmas Menu

    That's the British Muppet, Mopatop from Mopatop's shop. He's just so lovable looking. Wish we got it over here. You will be seeing the Miuppet Babies somewere in 2003, but not in a Christmas menu. The plans have been in my notebook for several months. More Fraggles, Sesame ane fantasy...

    Article On Disney Animation: Is It Fading?

    I certainly don't think traditional animation is a dead artform. It starts with the story. Another retread of Treasure Island released at the same time as Harry Potter is a terrible idea. I can't comment on Lilo and Stitch, but there haven't been many good stories attached to the traditionally...

    The final one will be up from the 21st to the 25th and has a possibility of winning. Who knows? LOL! Hope you catch it.

    Old Stick Puppet Gonzo

    I always laugh when i see that picure. It comes from my collection. I just placed them on the scanner with a black paper backing. LOL! Yes, the nose does have that look. Old technique I guess.

    Thanx for the Mopatop pic, Warrick. You are the reason for his inclusion.

    All Cast Christmas Menu

    As a fan you should know it's classic Piggy, not grotesque. ;) I considered changing her, but I thought that image was just perfect as it was. Now, if there is ever a MTM pic with her, you can bet her hair will be swapped! LOL! Bad perm Piggy. My least favorite. The image came from a...

    All Cast Christmas Menu

    This is a simpler menu, a way to get a lot of missed characters into the Christmas spirit! Yes, even Elmo. There's one left after this one, and of course New Years will kick things off just right.

    Are you going to get the Swinetrek set with First Mate Piggy when it comes out?

    Thank You, Jerry Nelson

    My favorite Nelson character is Gobo. Yes, I know Floyd is his signature character and he's really cool too, but when I think of Jerry Nelson I always think of Gobo singing "Come and Follow Me" with Matt or "Catch the Tail by the Tiger". That was just such an inspirational character. I hope we...

    Moulin Scrooge Christmas Menu

    I meant next year - Christmas 2003. I have 6 open slots next year (12 total memus) and a wealth of great material that screams Chritmas. Dark Crystal does not. We can include the characters in other ways, but probably not Christmas. I think users would probably enjoy the Bells of Fraggle Rock or...

    IAVMMCM running time

    Film has a wider range and palette. Video is more of a high contrast medium. I know most of this. I majored in film for a few years before changing to multimedia and have shot and edited both film and video. I have also done some work in the field. There is still a hypnotic flicker with film...

    IAVMMCM running time

    Yeah, I've seen several product that attempt to give video a film-look and they have all done so at the expense of the image. As far as vid to film transfer, there's still something lacking in the translation. I saw Episode 2 both ways. Digitally and projected. While the pixeliziation was pretty...

    IAVMMCM running time

    I didn't write the article. I'm just reporting the contents. What you have said is not entirely true. The theory is that 25 fps translates fluidly when converted to a regular film format (to be shown at festivals) than 30 does. Yes, there may be a dropped frame, but that is reportedly the appeal...

    Moulin Scrooge Christmas Menu

    Well a gentle breeze could blow away...nevermind. LOL! You're too sweet. DC is not on the radar for next year. Just don't see any Christmas elements in it and there's a wealth of material elsewhere. We'll have more Fraggles, Sesame Street and classic Christmas projects next year. The next menu...
