    I Miss the Munsters :(

    Okay, so, I watched the 4 episode Car 54 Where are You marathon on Me-TV. Now, remember, this show predates The Munsters by some time and has Al Lewis and Fred Gwynne. An episode concerned that Fred's character was too shy and stand offish when it came to women, and the precinct was trying to...

    Worst Muppet Video Game?

    The better question is, are any of them any good? Pigs in Space for Atari is the only one that I've played that's remotely enjoyable. And that's because it's stolen games. Chaos at the Carnival is just terrible on all counts. When the levels are actually fun, they go on too long. The...

    What is your least favorite Muppet Movie?

    They're both two lowest common denominators. One for children's entertainment, the other for family entertainment. I have yet to see KSY yet have heard horrible things. MWoz tried to be VMX and failed. While VMX is dated in its style of humor, it was lightning in a bottle. MWO tried to be...

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    Pixar pulls more weight at Disney now than the other way around. To have they own in control of their theatrical animation input. And to completely stop the DTV cheapquels... that's letting them alone and doing what's right. All Disney does is collect their share of merchandising and box...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Yeah, they left enough open for various different possibilities, but they closed it out nicely if there isn't one (or the closest thing we get is a comic book). Fix it Felix Sr. or the Arcade dying and closing (a sad reality) could be potential ideas to kick around. Hopefully they get Wily in...

    Pre-Order Sesame Street Old School Volume 3 (1979-1984) coming to DVD 11/6

    Like I said, they could easily blur them out. It'll look obvious, and stick out like a sore thumb, sure... but they'd be preserved. I'm starting to think this is a mangled "favor" on the part of WB for marathon watching. But then, why isn't there that first one?

    I Miss the Munsters :(

    Me-TV is supposedly airing the movie (Munsters go Home) today, followed by episodes of Car 54 where are you? Better than nothing I suppose.

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    I've seen the general retail stuff. It's kinda overpriced (8 bucks for a >4" figure?), and I always rather the Disney Store originals. But that general release stuff, no matter how much it is, is selling. I hope this means the film's a BO smash. I really hope to see a sequel. After all, the...

    What is your least favorite Muppet Movie?

    MFS is a exercise in carelessness. The director was a hack, no one liked filming it, and when the biggest star you have in the film is Rob Schneider... RUN! I could turn this into a 5 page discussion on just how his inclusion was bad for the film. I agree with South Park on Rob Schneider...

    International skits on Youtube...

    I don't know if uploading those is such a good idea for copyright reasons. But glad to see them.

    Million Puppet March for PBS November 3 in Washington

    Actually, OWS did have one unexpected benefit. Companies that were starting to look like jerks, not wanting bad PR because... well... it's their poor management skills and blind gluttonous greed that GOT us into these problems, actually created jobs for a couple months. There was a huge uptick...

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    Pixar could not have released films on its own, and would be under the boot heal of another production company no matter what. However, when Disney bought Pixar, not only did they leave them alone, they put them in charge of their entire theatrical animated movies division. After the dual...

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Ralph's my favorite animated film of the year. Even more so than Paranorman. If it wasn't for Avengers, it would be my favorite movie of the year, period. Other than the fact they couldn't clear the rights back up to Dr. Wily in time being the only sort of disappointment in the film, but I'm...

    Speculation: Potential Sequel for "The Muppets"

    Unless Muppets 2 is the working title. I really hope it stays a working title. There has never been a Muppets 2 or anything. Bobin and Stoller know that. But if it's for brand recognition, it's brand recognition and there's nothing you can do about it. I'd rather see a title that says...

    Disney buying Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode VII coming in 2015

    Clone Wars has steadily gotten better, getting far deeper than the first season, redeeming the worst characters, and even bringing back the biggest lost oppertunity in the prequel trilogy, Darth Maul. So yeah, a 5 season cartoon series that pulls in good ratings and makes money is a real thing...

    Speculation: Potential Sequel for "The Muppets"

    This was never meant to be a sequel, and we all know it. The crew always wanted the second movie to be a free floating film. Disney probably has to make it a sequel title for brand reasons. As for directing... name one director that hasn't blown his crap, and we'll talk. Bobin's the only...

    I Miss the Munsters :(

    Funny thing is, before we got MeTV, there was RTV. And even though they had the same problem with infomercials (it was the same channel, you see) the one time they didn't air infomercials on Saturday Morning, they had the 80's or 90's (it happened in between those decades) Munsters. Voice...

    Muppet Babies DVD Box Sets

    If there was any hold up on video rights, Star Wars would not have been one of them. One of the writers claimed that the video rights have all been paid for, though. But Lucas and Disney have had a great relationship in the past... it's just all of Sony's film rights (Three Stooges Shorts and...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 43

    Hey! Bob was in it. That's probably his one per season. It was a very cute episode, but it's too bad that there was nothing other than that and the Murray Tune in that was new. I don't think I'd dig a Kim Chi taco. Kim Chi is Korean for "Burn your dang face off pickles."
