    Is Sprout airing Seasons 30 to 32?

    Actually, I take it back. I'd rather these networks run preschool shows past 8 PM than what Nick Jr. Airs. Especially New Adventures of Old Christine. Seriously! The Seinfeld Curse didn't get rid of that one? Errhhhahem. Was it at least a 1990's episode of Barney?

    Impressive DARK CRYSTAL Cake!

    Awesome. There's a lot of love that went into that, and it actually makes it depressing that it's going to be eaten. Though if it were my cake, it would have a LOT more Skesis on it.

    Muppet FREAKING Go-Gurt!

    The Kermit the Frog one has more traditional flavors. Like, I think Blue Berry and something else berry... but they only had Rowlfs and Piggys. So I went Ninja Turtle instead. These things aren't too bad, actually. Flavor wise. I just wish they had Muppet yogurt cups instead of tubes.

    Any Bronies on here?

    I saw that they were going to be back because someone uploaded a preview video of it on youtube, and it was in one of my follower's recent activity. I'm trying very hard to ween myself off the show and all, but this season, what with the return of Discord, and Weird Al playing a character...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Seriously, I just CANNOT get behind Maleficent. Every trailer I see makes me dislike it more (saw one before Muppets, you probably did too). Maybe it's because I really dislike Once Upon a Time, and everytime I'm forced to watch some of it, I wind up pulling my hair out... but I really just...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    Even if I didn't like the film at all, I'd have to admit, Constantine was awesome. I'd say he's as great a villain as Doc Hopper and Nicky Holiday. I'd have to admit, the villains since then are a little on the weak side... okay, maybe not Tim Curry as Long John Silver... he was so...

    Muppets Most Wanted Box Office Numbers

    Ehhh... I really wish the TV show had more character development over guest star fawning. They did have great moments of that on occasion, but I just get the feeling that Roger Langridge did a better job in comic book form. If they were to do another Muppet Show and make it like the old one...

    Muppets Most Wanted Box Office Numbers

    Which I hope is the case. Just less people wanting to go to the theaters last week. If it can get its projected 10 Million, that's good news, kinda. Especially considering that there's like 4 or 5 movies opening this week (2 of which seem to only court a small, indie audience anyway). If it...

    "Peanuts" movie in development for November 2015 release

    Well, that's why in the decades of Peanuts, we've never seen a movie that isn't animated. If it were simple, we'd've seen one by now, maybe something in the 70's. There's too much that couldn't translate in live action. Snoopy, being the major and obvious issue. Unless they were going for a...

    "Peanuts" movie in development for November 2015 release

    Live action would never work. Unless they were doing a staged You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown or Snoopy the Musical thing, but I can't see that being anything more than a limited release concert thing. As I said earlier, John Hughes threatened to make one decades back. Presumably, live...

    Muppets Most Wanted Box Office Numbers

    If it can manage about 11-12 or so, that would be good. Honestly, I just want to see Noah fail. A big Budget flop like that? Makes the Muppets barely making back its budget look like nothing. I'd love to see Divergent fall hard as well. On that subject: Here's a cracked article.

    The Funny Picture Thread

    I had a friend who actually used to think that was an actual strip. I went on a wild goose chase looking for that strip and it didn't exist. So I drew that, and found out it didn't.

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    And that's why I hate movie audiences and reviewers. If a film's a complete, righteous piece of excrement, but it doesn't aspire to anything, it's more successful than something that tries and fails. Heck, the crappy film is gold. It's like a kid who barely attends school coasting gets a...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    And they probably went to see some horrible thing like The Nut Job and ate it up. That's how it goes, isn't it? Which answers my question. Doesn't matter is a group of fans who actually care about the characters or just a bunch of guys hired in last minute before the movie license expires.

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    Yeah, theater of cynics that expected too much from their entertainment. My theater was a little more raucous. Though, I'll admit to most of it. Still, I just want to know. If things were different and we got, let's say, Muppet Tom Sawyer where none of the Muppet characters played that role...

    Muppets Most Wanted Box Office Numbers

    Is that the actual box office, or is it the estimates? I was fooled by that last time. Seems that if it's an estimate, it's alright in numbers... if it's the total take, there's the entire day of Sunday to make a couple million more. It's more than half way domestically, anyway. It'll...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    Cough cough... considering the reaction of this film, yeah. They would have to pay people to see this, and there is a lack of fans. That's a pretty confusing reason to dislike the movie. Again, plot gets in the way. The problem is, yes it is a follow up that takes the ending away. But I...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    You know, I'm just going to facepalm at the comments about "The Muppets should have been smarter than that." I really am, considering that seems to be the main complaint. I can analyze it for all its worth, but it's clearly supposed to be the joke. It's playing with the concept with a wink...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    That's probably the case. They're too big and expensive rights wise to keep releasing single seasons... though for Batman, I wish they did. That third season sucked. 'cept maybe for Eartha Kitt's Catwoman. I mean, the first 2 seasons were tongue in cheek, dancing a line between making it look...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    There is no comparison. Fozzie was naive, sure... but MFS treated him like an idiot. Picking his nose? Really? And the "Mama always said to wash my hands" bit? I'm sorry, he already fell hard with that one. He's supposed to be close to his mother, but they made him act like a 4 year old...
