Hi all, Picked up a flyer for the 2003 Canadian Comic/Anime/Sci-Fi Expo in Toronto this year and they say they will have an "exclusive" Tour Animal figure available at the convention. The picture on the flyer looked like the regular Tour Animal figure, but I am assuming this is some kind of...

Just stumbled across a link to a video of Natalie Portman's appearance on Sesame Street from earlier this year (back in April I think). It's a big .avi file (34.5mb) but almost full screen. For those who haven't seen this, Natalie and Elmo play "the princess and the elephant" and Elmo is the...

Hopefully this will stay up for awhile.....for a good laugh go to Google, enter the phrase "Weapons of Mass Destruction" and click on the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button. Be sure to read carefully the page that loads. Trust me, it's worth it. ;)

Hey Star Wars/Muppet fans.....TheForce.net just posted a script that claimed to be the production script for Episode III. Of course it's not, both the author and Lucasfilm have confirmed it's just a fanfic, but boy is it a great fanfic. Better than a few of the Star Wars novels I've tried to...

Hi all, I just stumbled across this diagram while looking something up quickly at Henson.com - it's a neat Muppeteering diagram by Caroly Wilcox.

Hi gang, This is long overdue, but due to popular demand (mostly from Bork Bork) I'm finally going to throw together my own puppet building "how-to". It'll be archived over at my old Geocities site. I'm rebuilding an old puppet character named Tumbles P. Bear for a film project I want to...

Hi all! I just posted about this in "For Sale/Trade" but I am trying to find episodes of the Jim Henson Hour, specifically the Dog City epsisode and the behind-the-scenes episodes (though I'd also be interested in any of the other JHH episodes too). I have a lot of old 80s/90s Muppet...

I (just) found out Caroll has a website! While there is only limited information there (it seems mostly to promote his book and speaking engagements) there are some beautiful paintings of his to see. If like me you've had your head in the sand about this until now check it out at...

This is from star wars.com. Sadly, I probably won't see it for awhile, seeing as how MTV Canada snapped up the broadcast rights to this year's show (nobody gets MTV Canada up here): Wins an MTV Movie Award, Yoda Does June 02, 2003 Disproving the notion that MTV only caters to the younger...
