Could it be that there's new support for the little prawn...I mean King Prawn? What makes Pepe so cool is that he seamlessly integrates into the cast.

Ken- I just sent you head to toe snaps of MAMA. I think this is a very good pack-in for a character who needs one. ;)

I just caught the Statler and Waldorf one and apparently there's a Swedish Chef one too.

Nate- Thanks for the info. Some good news - some bad nes, but very interesting!

Biggest mistakes people make with the Muppets: That Kermit is voiced by Jim's son [Brian] That Disney owns them That they are the same as the Sesame cast or Muppet Babies That Piggy is voiced by a woman (many people still don't know) That there hasn't been a Muppet show since the early...

I'm still a little bitter about Disney's behavior after Jim Henson died as well. However, I don't think many other companies of their stature would have handled things much differently. I could be wrong. The difference between Darkwing Duck and the Muppets is that Darkwing's fame lasted a...

The pole was pretty split from what I remember. About 60/40, but that is unfortunate that it was nixed so soon. I love that little prawn, okay.

Statler and Waldorf have plushes available at Disney's MGM Studios and California Adventure themeparks. There is a number around here somewhere, but you can also find them from www.2momluvme.com or on Ebay. There is also a beautifully made representation of the pair boxed together from Igel...

Oh, I loved The Little Mermaid. It is my favorite Disney animated film and it revamped Disney's image and animation division. A very important film.

The fact that they made a Little Mermaid 2 still upsets me. :(

The local EB won't let me reserve anything via credit card so it may be online transactions for me. Anyone else having this trouble? Is this typical? I'm not used to this crazy world of collectibles.

I remember that a scene from that film tied up traffic on the Golden Gate Bridge for hours a few years ago.

Yes, I am being completely sarcastic. I don't think he's done amany good films exept for Gods and Monssters and maybe School Ties.

Oh, Nate - Brendan Frasier has been in so many beloved classics. :D I hope this doen'nt turn into another Space Jam, but who knows. The one thing that bugs me most (no pun intended) wth the WB characters these days is their voices. They really seem off to me. Does Noel Blanc still do them? I...

This sequel doesn't sound too great to me, but I never thought I'd like the first one so much.

I just never enjoyed the Toy Story films that much. Monsters Inc had some spectacular craftmanship, but it played the kids angle too much for my taste. I dod enjoy it and one can't beat the modeling, but I like Shrek much better. It spoke to more than just the kids and that's what I like in an...

beaker I get your point but I have to disagree with your comments about Shrek and Ice Age (I won't even see Spirit, though). Shrek fared even better at the box office than Monsters Inc (also a good film) and Ice Age made a mint as well - breaking records in its opening weekend. I don't...

Yeah, that AMC cartoon shorts thing in the 90s was all too brief.

The bit I know about it concerns the sizeable slashing of Disney's asking price after Jim's death. Under the deal he had much creative control over the Muppets but could retire anytime. The deal hadn't been completed before he died and their was a lawsuit against Disney for changing their asking...

nate Family groups are so silly. Jessica is barely even in the shorts and kids see worse imagery on daytime television. How weird. I do know the reason that future Roger projects have fallen through is directly related to Disney and Spielberg. Each short was to alternate appearance from a...
