Yeah... it's happening :rolleyes: A movie based on a ride based off a movie?! Isn't that inception of some sort? And wasn't there a completely unsuccessful, Monty Python cast filled live action Mr. Toad movie that everyone forgot about? I mean, on top of the Wind and the Willows animated...

It was Watching Ellie. The pilot was brilliant, and I wish the show was exactly like the pilot. If I can remember, it was sort of 24-ish, at least in the respect that there was a timer, and you followed Ellie around her day. Can't remember if it was in real time or they cut from hour to hour...

We lost a giant in the industry. That massive health problem he had several years back did a lot of damage, he was starting to rebound and then this happened. That's a very depressing way to go. Just as you slowly start to get better. But he left a huge legacy of game shows, production...

That's a show Nick SHOULD have given a chance. Seriously. Nick just doesn't care about something that isn't off the bat Spongebob popular. I mean, they couldn't cancel Zim fast enough, and that backfired on them when Zim became popular for being cancelled and under-appreciated. Now Zim's a...

On a technicality... MTM was redoing TMM, if in reverse. The whole trying to make it in the entertainment business... only with a big break up instead of everyone meeting each other. There are only so many plots out there, and there is no such thing as an entirely original idea that isn't...

Yeah. And what ever happened to the part where Kermit goes "Sorry... Frog in my throat?" Is that on the DVD? Sorry... the premium Blu-Ray? Seems that they should have at least put the Kermit and Piggy break up sequence on there instead of that dumb super hero one.

Skips is my favorite character, actually. And not just because Mark voiced him. But like I said, there is NO shame in voice acting as a career. I love Star Wars, but I think Mark is much more valuable as a voice actor, because he really has fun with it. I respect his decision to retire as...

Penn... yeah... I could watch it for him, but don't wanna. Plus, Penn and Teller are basically on everything now, they just pop up from time to time. They were on Ruff Ruffman and The Simpsons fairly recently.

We have to stop thinking in terms of Sesame Street being in danger. It's PBS they willfully want to nickle and dime for various political reasons. The government gives a pittance of tax payer money to PBS. Not funding them is not going to make us all millionaires and take away from our tax...

The only time new characters took focus away from older characters was back when said old characters weren't recast yet... most obvious in MCC and MTI. However, look at MTM. While it didn't have the sheer number of Muppet show characters that GMC had (Pops, Lips, The Jugband... all had pretty...

Indeed. He got a second chance at a career through voice acting, and he's done a great job ever since. But the Joker was a huge turning point. And to think, it could have gone to Tim Curry, but he didn't get the laugh that they were looking for. Again, role model is a word I (and other...

Hypothetically, they could. They could get Puppet Heap to build it, they've got someone who has worked with The Muppets before, and they could even call it a Muppet series. Hypothetically. Though they also could keep it a separate puppet project from the Muppets (even if they use Puppet Heap)...

That's basically what I'm thinking in terms of a show. Having Scooter be promoted to something else, and showing Walter the ropes... an eager Walter grasping onto his every word and action like (for the lack of a better reference) Doofus clings onto Launchpad, thinking he's the greatest hero ever.

There was also a LOT of expectations that the stars of Seinfeld, when they went to their own shows, would be as funny or as successful as Seinfeld (or their respective characters). I wouldn't exactly say that Julia was the only one to find a career. Patrick Warburton carved out a niche as a...

Yeah. The only question is how will Walter fit? Let me put it this way... if Walter doesn't appear in any future Muppet projects, there will be a depressing undertone. Sort of how like we never see Snuffy's sister anymore... or the fact Peg and Pistol (not to mention Chainsaw and Waffles)...

It's unwise to be stuck with one role in the entertainment industry. Lots of careers were killed or otherwise doomed after an actor/actress played on very famous role. Look at how things were for Mark Hamil after Star Wars. If he didn't land the role of The Joker, who knows what he would...

It's fine as long as you don't drink anything out of them. I had a whole bunch of empty 3 Stooges Beer Bottles a neighbor washed out and gave to me, as I like the Stooges.

On the Subject of new Muppets: The only 2 (theatrical) movies not to feature any new Muppet characters were TMM and GMC... GMC having a LOT of characters from the show. MTM was the first to have new characters, but in just very supporting roles. The new Rats in the kitchen besides Rizzo, and...

Yeah... basically some sort of comedic nuisance that barely poses a threat that constantly gets in the way. I was very disappointed how Kermit was portrayed as LeStrade in the Sherlock Holmes comics. He was all too willing to follow Sherlock Gonzo's crazy schemes instead of being completely...

In the interest of politics, he could file for a third party candidate, but that's all I'm going to say about that. But I have to say, George Takei and Arseno Hall can't make me watch The Apprentice. Even though I love Puppet Up, they couldn't get me to watch The Apprentice. Hopefully clips...
