    TV Tropes

    There's a few things in the section on Man on the Moon that I find interesting: So a movie about an audience-alienating performer is audience-alienating? So maybe it was audience-alienating when the actual events happened, those watching the movie without knowledge of what happened would be...

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    I just read that there's going to be a "Best of Rocky and Bullwinkle Volume 3" DVD, and I've read that it's supposed to tie in with a Bullwinkle movie that's coming out this October. This is the first I've heard about any such Bullwinkle movie, and if it's coming out this October, shouldn't I...

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Thread

    Well, I saw the movie last night. It was decent. Very funny at one point where somebody asks April if the turtles are aliens and she says that that would be stupid (I guess the write did a "take that" towards Michael Bays original concept). So out of all the characters created for the original...

    Your Thoughts: "Jim Henson: The Biography" by Brian Jay Jones

    Another thing I've wondered, which I have noted previously in this thread: The book does talk a lot about how ACC originally owned the distribution rights to a number of Jim Henson's productions before he purchased the rights, but it also mentions that when he purchased The Dark Crystal (and I...

    So It's Come to This: A Clip Show Thread

    You misunderstood what I meant. I meant that shows like The Nostalgia Critic seem like they'd be hard to do clip shows because they rely so much on footage from existing productions (in fact I guess it'd be harder to do a clip show for Mystery Science Theater 3000).

    I'm at a loss as to what kind of advice to give, besides the advice I've seen Jim Lewis give to aspiring writers (Muppets or otherwise): Just do it.

    Animal's First Hair Cut

    I wrote this fan fic within a day or two after coming up with the idea. I've done a lot of fan fics after coming up with a plot within a short time, and usually when I start I get really into coming up with ideas fast enough that readers don't have to wait too long between chapters (never a...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    So the ending credits for The Muppet Show were a little different between the US and UK broadcast, with the UK broadcasts having the credits closer to the side of the screen as opposed to the center, and more importantly the guest stars name was in the end credits in the UK version. When it...

    Awkward full-body Muppets

    After watching Muppets Most Wanted several times this week, I now feel like the full-body shots of Constantine dancing during "I'm Number One" look weird. To me, his legs look a little longer than Kermit's legs should.
