Like I said, it would probably have been a source of massive annoyance to the cast because that was what it took. But it only works as a Checkov's Gun joke. Of course, I kinda complained about a similar joke in that Meatball film I hate so much (I've seen 10 minutes, and that's 10 minutes more...

I don't think the creator granted them so much as a TV special. He seems to be one of those hands off cartoonists. And it's probably for the best. Trying to copy that style of humor would end in failure. What I'd like is a CGI US Acres movie, DTV or something... and get as much of the main...

We are talking about the same guy who stipulated in his will that forbade anyone to continue the comic strip. I don't know how they were able to let comic book adaptions slide by, but there is nothing in the issues I've read that wouldn't have been perfectly in place in the strip, a TV special...

But to think that whoever runs Schulz's whatever won't be rigorous to keep the integrity of the characters and franchise is a bit much. Most of these films are lousy because there is no hands on input. If the Boom produced Peanuts comics have a lot of rigorous, hands on regulations (and it...

I don't think even hard core collectors would buy this if it had this image on it: So new images on Muppet products are not only welcome, they're a Frogsend.

Let's wait for things to actually happen before we complain. There could always be an exception to the rule. I don't care too much for most of these updates (some are actually quite good for what they are), but at least when they happen, we usually get some DVD release out of it. We wouldn't...

Some of them are good, some of them really stink. I love the one about Mr. Toad cornering the market on socks, forcing everyone to temporarily switch to the Lint Standard. But Around the world in 11 Minutes was just bad. They speak to me as one of those "this should be its own show" circle of...

That's because it was on UPN. Of course, I don't think any of the major networks would have given it the time of day. It was far superior to the comic strip, actually. They really got to make jokes about corporate corruption at the hands of idiot CEO's. Something we could all use right now.

With all due respect, I'm not looking to join another forum right now, but you brought up some very good points there. Personally, I'm happy Cheik was just there. His parents were also just there in the one about D.W. at the school play episode. Now, the one thing I'd complain about with the...

WTP suffered from being Flanderized to a baby franchise, and frankly, over exposure of the character from Disney over the past decade and a half. And for being released opposite Harry Potter. And for being barely an hour in length. It shouldn't have been a summer movie at all, honestly. It...

There hasn't been anything on a Heathcliff movie. Unless you're talking about Bad Kitty. It's clearly DTV quality, and it's been delayed for years now (it was supposed to come out last year). I doubt we'll even see it. The only theatrical potential it has is maybe a Kidtoon Cinema...

I just had a realization. I have to requote here... A far better example, if you ask me. They made a SHOW based on a single panel comic strip, a cartoon series, years later a movie. Then another cartoon series. Then another movie Then ANOTHER movie... And a TV show based on that...

The Compsons only appear in 2 of 10 segments so far (I dunno about the next batch of 10... that's a 6+ month wait), and the brother Bud has an integral role in the last cartoon of the sub-season. I have to admit, I made a mountain out of a mole hill again, and these new episodes weren't as bad...

to be fair, it was terrible first off... but he also had that lousy cartoon series as well... And of course, he shared that series with a MUCH better cartoon based on a much better one panel strip. And that better series spawned a better known series, a Marvel Comic book, and a clipshow...

News... So... many levels of AWFUL! Bad comic strip, Walden Media is involved... ugh.

They probably don't have a 2-D project in mind at all because they simply didn't. If it's a cost thing or based on logistics, that's debatable. Plus, Princess and the Frog had a little too much pressure on it. Like the Superman Returns movie did. If it was supposed to succeed, it was supposed...

There was a rumor going around that the fart shoes originally did it, essentially being a Checkov's Gun, meaning it had real reason to be there. If that was true, it must've been in an earlier draft. But I do like that theory of yours. it does seem like the sort of thing Fozzie would do.

It was already confirmed, because the action figure is out... but Metalhead is coming back. This NYCC panel releases more info Stockman and the Mousers are back (PLEASE be egotistical African American Stockman!), Leatherhead's on the scene again, and so isn't The Rat King. I'm VERY excited...

The sound bite happy media is the exact reason why our political system has become crap (for lack of a better, stronger, less G rated word). We're obsesses with gaffes, misquotes, half of a quote for incrimination, and artistic license paraphrases for where we get our information. And let it...
