http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=32244 I'm not sure if this is the right place for this story, but here you go. So the question is, with Henson's other major projects (POTC and FRM) in a perpetual state of pre-production, will this one, with the major star power behind it, take...

Why is it that there are so few good, in depth biographies on Jim Henson? I've read Jim Henson: The Works, which talks less about his life and more about his work. Even so, that's the best one I've found so far. :/

I've heard rumors that the TDC sequel is based off of conversations between Henson, Froud, and the screenwriters. Is there any credibility to these claims? I've been searching for sources... I'm really interested to find out what Jim Henson was planning before TDC flopped (if anything).

Gahhh. More tantalizing factoids! :)

Starting at 9:21. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgGRSC08lII&feature=related I love Alice Cooper, and his Muppet Show episode is one of my favorites. He talks about accidentally addressing Miss Piggy as a person instead of to Frank Oz. :)

:sleep: This is starting to become unbearable! I just want to know whether it's being canceled or what the deal is! Anyone hear anything?

Hiho. As a hobby, I have built hand puppets since I was five years old. At twenty, I've gotten considerably better. :P Now, I'd like to try my hand at building more complex creatures. I really want to start a career in film (I know, it's a crapshoot, but we all have dreams), and having a...

I didn't see this posted yet, so here it is: http://www.mediabistro.com/galleycat/deals/jim_henson_biography_acquired_by_ballantine_168932.asp I'm excited!

So, according to Wikipedia (not always a reputable source for information), has stated that while Vol. 2 is to be released in August, LOTDC's third volume has been canceled. Can anyone confirm this?
