    Who is Lionsgate associated with?

    It is. They only AIR the show, they do not own it. That's just as bad as third party content matches from someone who released a video that one time.

    Top cat film to released but only in uk

    I swear they even have a music album out there... There it is. It's so amazing that a character can get that popular outside the US and get its own movie. Sure, the Disney Duck family is popular in Europe and has all those comics with their re-imagining of the characters... but the only...

    Rich Ross is out as chairman of Walt Disney Studios

    Even if it did... the last movie cost 45 million dollars... if the next one is around the same budget, even if no one in the world saw it, it's still a more solid investment than a big budget movie that only makes up less than half its budget. Green Lantern made more than the Muppets, but...

    Best/Worst advertising mascots

    That's why in other drug commercials, they show everyone riding bikes and planting flowers. It's different, but... it would make a lot more sense if it was the doctor that's standing right there talking with some visuals over it. Not so much... even before that was a concern, they were...

    Sesame Street Live: Can't Stop Singing

    I'm sure if the ticket sales are low enough, they'll call it "Elmo can't Stop Singing." :electric: Actually... that makes perfect sense. They could just rewrite the thing to feature new humans specific to the show. I wonder if we're going to get any licensed actual songs in it as well, like...

    Best/Worst advertising mascots

    I refuse to post the entire commercial back here, but here's a screen shot of what I'm talking about. HE'S! RIGHT! THERE! WHY the heck does he need to have a film strip of himself talking to someone when he's right there in front of them?!?!!? And this isn't just in that one commercial...

    What was the last DVD you bought and why?

    I bought a whole bunch of cheap crap lately (the only kind I can afford) Yu Yu Hakusho the movie/Ninku The movie: I've been trying to track that thing down for quite sometime now. And I found it at a convention for only 5 bucks. Zotsky and Kaput: Three volumes of this great French cartoon...

    New Muppet movie in development for potential 2013 release

    As long as we have a good, LONG editing period where the directors and writers can sit in on what needs to be cut. If anything was rushed in the last movie, it was that. Why else would they chop out huge chunks of very important plot info?

    Best/Worst advertising mascots

    There's some stupid AARP Mobile Phone plan commercial that has these ANNOYING old guy twins. If they're not the same guy, I would be surprised, but it still doesn't make it annoying beyond all reasonable belief. And I hate all those cartoon mascots they have for prescription medications...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    The episode wasn't so much terrible, but the ending and the big reveal is so titanically stupid that it made me want to reach into the television and scream at Buster's Mother about how insanely, almost incestuously obsessed she is with Buster. And then dope slap her. Seriously... "Ooh! It...

    Upcoming Disney Movies

    Jim is COMPLETELY wrong for Doofenshmirtz! I don't care that's the creators' wishes. it should be John Stewart. He can do a pretty rough approximation of that voice, and he sort of looks like him. Jim Carey's too bouncy and cartoony to be able to deliver one of Doof's amazing rambling lines...

    Top cat film to released but only in uk

    I actually mentioned it in a couple threads already. I'm honestly amazed that an American character is so famous in Latin America they decide to give him his own movie there. I mean, we screw up a LOT of our own cartoons, and then laid waste to some Japanese shows (Though I don't think Speed...

    Boston/Cambridge area Muppet Movie Screenings April 20

    I decided to go to the Labyrinth/Dark Crystal showing... I keep missing Being Elmo on television when it airs, though... but I can only see one, so I'm going to have to go with stuff I haven't seen in ages. otherwise, I own all three classic Muppet Movies on home video.

    Upcoming Disney Movies

    Other than the Medieval setting, there's nothing that close about them. Dragons was heavily Norse, but Brave is heavily Celtic. Not to mention that Dragons feature mystical creatures while Brave is more grounded in reality (so much as I've heard about the film). Production started as early...

    Video: The Fraggles at Carnegie Hall!

    It all has to do with Puppet Building. The Fraggles have been out of the media eye for some time, I doubt the puppets would be in that good of shape. So it's an annoying Catch 22 (like there's any other kind?) They simply can't rebuild the characters until they have a decent enough project...

    Rich Ross is out as chairman of Walt Disney Studios

    I'd be far more worried if it wasn't such a no-risk gamble. The Muppets made a small amount of money, but it cost a smaller amount of money to produce and market, so they managed to profit from it none the less. At this point, thinking small wouldn't exactly be out of their range. Unless the...

    Warner Bros. Lego movie announces plot and title

    If it wasn't officially, it's definitely in development purgatory now. I don't see why everyone chooses to say development heck, because purgatory is a place where there's endless nothing... that's just more accurate. That article was 2 years old, and most importantly, before Mars Needs Moms...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    You have to admit. Arthur has taken upon itself the duty to educate kids about various illnesses and handicaps that they're going to encounter in their lives. A humongous "right on" came out of their work talking about Aspergers syndrome. That stuff illicits a positive response, and it's no...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    What kid's gonna be named Binky? It's obvious it was a nickname. Just... unlike Brain, they never refereed to his real name until now. Of course, I was thinking it was something like Bernard.

    New Muppet movie in development for potential 2013 release

    It's like they didn't even bother marketing it as Sci-Fi, and it just looked like another fantasy fighting flick... especially since Wrath of the Titans and Hunger Games came out the same month too. But something tells me it's going to hit DVD hard, due to everyone's curiosity, and it will make...
