    Rumor: The Muppet Wizard of Oz

    I want Pepe as head of the flying monkeys. I can imagine him working for the Wicked Witch, especially if she's hot. Plus I think he's the only character who could steal the melting scene away from the witch as a ***** yet goodherted evil henchman. Kermit has to be the Scarecrow, because...

    Eisner confirms Disney could buy Henson and Muppets soon

    As long a Henson isn't an independent company, I think it will have problems, including difficulties putting out the superior products we know they are capable of. But is Disney gets them, at least we may get a few cool theme park rides out of it :smirk: I just want another (!@#*^$ing...

    Interesting Gulf War News

    I finally have the time to put my two cents (or more) in. I am against this war, even though its already started. I have many reasons why, but I think some of the ones that are most relevant and haven't already been discussed enough are: 1) I makes NO sense to go to war because someone...

    what are good materials for outdoor puppet

    Hi! I'm going to comission a puppet in the next few months - I'm currently in the research phase. As I've previously posted, I know diddily about puppets. I'd like to have one to use at a Renaissance Festival in Fl. Its hot, muggy and painfully dusty on site. Obviously, I want the puppet to...

    Purchasing a Muppet-Style Puppet

    Thanks for all the info, y'all! I know diddily about puppets but would like to try working with them. You've given some wonderful info for a beginner. You mentioned the weight of the puppets being an important factor...what do you think the maximum effective weight of a one handed puppet...

    Which Rainbow Brite Kid are you?

    Okay, I'm admitting my ignorance...who are the Rainbow Brite kids? Did I miss this because I'm the wrong generation (i'm 31)

    good news about why I've been gone (its ok that you didn't notice)

    Hi! I've been on the board since right after Muppetfest, but I don't get a chance to post frequently. I dropped off the face of the Earth for a month & I thought I'd brag about why... We just welcomed Rhiannon Elizabeth to our family on August 22, 2002. She's 17 pounds, 10 ounces of...

    MuppetFest 2?

    OHH! YAY!!! I just got back in the country, and I am thrilled to have this news here waiting for me. Yes, I understand that 'MFest in early 2003' sounds better than 'MFest plans for 2002 scrapped - hope for next year', but I think its a good move on their part. They are SO crazy there...

    Pip and Pop name question

    This is a fairly stupid question I've been wondering about for some time. I'm hoping someone here can tell me the answer. Pip and Pop are both referred to as boys. But in one of the early episodes, one of them reminds the other that his middle name is Angela or Angelica- what gives? Were...

    The best Muppet moment ever!

    As for single mometns, I can't pick one. There are so many that still make me laugh 'till I doubt my own continence. However, my 2 favorite scenes are in TMM from when Kermit and Piggy meet for their romantic dinner 'till The Divine Ms P beats the snot out of the guys who hurt "the little...

    Miss Piggy: "Heavyset" sterotype?

    I like the fact that Miss Piggy is Rubenesque! The only thing that bothers me is that seems to be almost all there is to her character these days. She's gone from a very 3-d character to a 2-d one. On the Muppet Show she did a great many different skits, some with starring roles and others...

    Favorite Muppet Puns

    somewhat off subject - what the hey "I JUST got a cd with "Don't cry for me ARGENTINA" on it" Which one? I HIGHLY recommend the version of Evita that has Mandy Patankin (Inigo Montoya from Princess Bride) singing the role of Che. His voice is poetry. BTW, one of my two favorite...

    Favorite Muppet Puns

    Most of my favorites have already been listed. Gone with the Schwinn is, in my opinion, the best ever. "They don't look like Presbyterians to me!" is another favorite (I used to go to school at a seminary, so I said this one in my head A LOT), but I have to say the running gag with "Have you...

    Dave Goelz to voice Figment in Rehab of Epcot Attraction

    I haven't been on the Imagination ride for some time. Its WAY too dark and scares the bejeezus out of my kid. Why make a ride that's dark, boring and terrifies 5 year olds? If it scares kids, it should be exciting! When did this change happen? For those who have seen the ride, is it still...
