    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    See... Worse than Wild Wild West... at least some people found some sort of enjoyment in WWW. I cannot wait for TV Trope's YMMV page on After Earth to expand. So far it only lists the Scientological brain washing. Actually it expanded a little since yesterday... nothing funny though...

    The Chipmunks

    Unless someone else posted it... The Chipmunks sing about all the awful programming NBC had to offer in 1983. Okay okay okay... Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends, Kidd Video, and Smurfs are cool. But the Mr. T cartoon has to be seen to be believed. It's terrible! No Howlin' Mad Murdoch!

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    I really hope that's true. 9 Story does a beautiful job with Wild Kratts... they do a meh job on Arthur. Certainly not worse than what Cookie Jar would have done. Seriously... Cailou looks worse, if that was even possible, and the 2 Flash originals Hooray for Huckel and especially Doodlebops...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    The one thing I'd disagree with is that if Julie on Sesame Street gets released on DVD, who's gonna bet it's the company that did that stupid Christmas special? Anyway, yeah. I really want Old School 3, I'm glad they released it, but the fact that they couldn't secure the rights to their own...

    I might just skip Epic. I kinda wanted to see it, but I'm so far behind, I'm going to have to miss it. Had I the chance to see Star Trek back 2 weeks ago when it came out, maybe... but for a myriad of reasons I just couldn't make it until this weekend. I'm far more interested in Superman...

    Sesame Street's talkin' 'bout prison

    No no no... Alex's father was a co-conspirator to Silent E from the Electric Company and was arrested for turning cans into canes.

    New Muppet movie in development for potential 2013 release

    Again, Pixar has made Teaser trailers quite some time in advance, and I suspect they were originally created as pilots/test films in the first place. Last time, The Muppets came out in November, but didn't even get a teaser until POTC 4 came out. I'd suspect whatever cartoon film they have in...

    List of Changed Channels

    It's laziness... It's also why I've grown to hate rerunning classic shows. Put the things on DVD instead. At least then you'll have access to all the episodes before they edit the crap out of them and create artificial scarcity and show only half the show. I remember the short period of time...

    Muppet Show Season 4 coming in 2013

    Disney failed to release Seasons 4 and 5 when the iron was still hot. A 5 year pause after season 3? They so could have released season 4 and 5 by now. But they wanted to hold over for some vauge year of the Muppets thing 2 years after it should have been released. Then they had an ample...

    List of Changed Channels

    Replace Spongebob with Rugrats, and that was the network essentially in the late 90's. I don't see much of a difference on that end. The only bad thing I see is their Nick at Nite programming being full of crappy sitcoms from the 00's that no one liked in the first place. My problem with...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    I can just imagine a lesser director making Kahn a camp straight stereotype, not very threatening and a joke. There's too much to parody there and the writers took the high road. Considering they threw in Kirk seducing alien women in both films as a gag, the relative parody of the series was...

    Ah, Wrath of Kahn. The only original Star Trek movie anyone actually likes. Didn't see it, but have seen episodes with Kahn... I'm mixed. With all due respect to Ricardo, I like Kahn that's affably evil with a sexy Spanish accent... but there's just something about Benedict Cumberbatch's...

    Sesame Street's talkin' 'bout prison

    Any reason a Muppet could go to jail could be funny. Maybe the kid's dad tried to kidnap Jack Black.

    Anyone ever get stuck with those weird short Canadian programs that they'd show in the 1980's in the middle of the day?

    Goldurnit, that Star Trek movie was freakin' good. Liked it more than the first. heck, it was more Star Trek-y than the first. Looking at how J.J. Abrams handled the space battles... Star Wars is in good hands. Of course, any hands that aren't Lucas are good hands. Anyway, Big fat...

    Sesame Street's talkin' 'bout prison

    Oh yeah. it definitely avoids Narm as greatly as possible, and they are fulfilling their promise to help children in any situation. Just... It's hard not to be a complete jerk and guess what the father Muppet did to get arrested in the first place. That seems like a very Robot Chicken-y...

    Funniest Wackiest Zaniest Sesame Sketches

    Monster Clubhouse seems like a lost opportunity. It could have totally been fleshed out for a full half hour show, it really had a PeeWee's Playhouse like vibe to it. It really feels like something JHC would have pitched to Nickelodeon in the early 90's. It's all about venue. Too bad Sesame...

    Bear in the Big Blue House Bacon Flavor Corn Snacks

    If it's a Bear, it has to be either Honey or Salmon flavored. I...uh... didn't catch enough of the series to note what Bear's real favorite food is.

    Muppet Vinylmation series 3?

    You had me at Reporter Kermit with hat! The legal tie ups that kept the hat off of Palisades Koosbaine Kermit are a legendary fan block... luckily Disney doesn't have that problem, and he remains delightfully Sesame Streetish.
