    Barack Obama

    Did anyone else see his speech at the Democratic convention last night? It was great. If you missed it you can copy and paste this URL in to RealPlayer - rtsp://cspanrm.fplive.net/cspan/project/c04/c04_dnc072704_obama.rm I've also posted the full text of the speech here.

    Looking for some good links on building puppets

    Check out http://www.bear-town.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=11&Itemid=36 There's a section in that article on puppet patterns you can buy (pg two I think) and page 4 has links to sites with a few free patterns. Otherwise try searching Google (do both a web and an image search)...

    JHC will produce "Puss 'n Boots"

    Isn't Shrek 3 being fast tracked for a mid-2006 release?

    Land of Gorch skits on a Canadian Network

    I think that the classic episodes of SNL have been airing on both Global and the Comedy Network here for the past few years off and on. They are edited down to an hour and I have never seen any of the Muppet sketches. Much as I'd love for them to be included I can understand why they were cut...

    Gonzo puppet

    Touché :p There's no need to be defensive Bezalel! We're all fans here. You're relatively new to the forum and may not be aware that there have been many, many puppets like these pop up over the years on ebay and in virtually every case they're delisted and you're also potentially exposing...

    Gonzo puppet

    That's right, I almost forgot about Disney. You don't want to mess with the mouse. They'll even sue small children! :eek: :eek:

    Gonzo puppet

    Uh-oh. Here we go again. :rolleyes: First, it's a great likeness. The neck seems a little too wide but good all the same. Now at the risk of getting people all bent out of shape again, you do realize that ebay will likely yank the listing for an item like this. You're not really supposed to...

    New puppet film coming this year: "Strings"

    On behalf of Canada, let me say that we welcome you and - most importantly - your tourism dollars. :D Who has the distribution rights up here? If someone knows I can probably get a little more information about this film.

    A little Mirrormask news

    More Mirrormask news from Neil's blog... Well, on Thursday night we showed the Sony Execs what there is of Mirrormask. 200 shots still haven't been fully rendered by the render farm so you'd move from real shot to blue screen shot back to real shot, but there wasn't anywhere where there...

    CGI is killing the art

    I'm so sure about the Dark Crystal and Labyrinth (I would peg them around $75-80 million each with inflation) but Star Wars is the #2 movie of all time before you adjust for inflation (it grossed $460 million or so). It easily made over $1 billion in today's dollars.

    No Foam Puppets

    I think they had to change the formula for plastic wood several years ago because of health concerns, much as they did with Celastic. I'm told that it's not the same plastic wood on sale now that they used in the 60s/70s/early 80s.

    Nickelodeon Plans Blackout for Saturday, October 2

    Er, I think you're part of the problem, not the solution Rexcrk. :zany:

    Got Legs?

    I'm out of town at the moment, but I'll scan it when I get back tonight or early tomorrow. Sorry for the delay!

    No Foam Puppets

    Does this method (soaking in water) work with the "new" plastic wood that been sold in North America the last few years? I've tried using plastic wood but the result was always kind of soft. This fixes that problem I assume?
