    MTM script on Ebay

    Or the person selling could have just sat and watched the movie and transcribed it as best as possible (maybe wording some scenes differently, or leaving out lines that could have been improvised, making up dialogue for known deleted scenes). Does it say if it's the final script (which would be...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets Character Encyclopedia

    I guess it doesn't matter that much if the book is character complete or if it leaves out the most obscure characters. But some of us fans want the book to be as complete as possible, some want their favorite characters included... I feel like every recurring character should be included (though...

    Does anyone have Muppet Madness?

    Muppet Madness was not a compilation (I don't think). It was one of two video releases from Interactivision, which released video games on VHS. There were two Muppet titles, the other being You're the Director (which is on YouTube), and they are among the rarest Muppet video releases of all...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets Character Encyclopedia

    Yeah, I've been wondering if Carter didn't get a page because of his resemblance to a member of Geri and the Atrics. Craig Shemin didn't discuss his absence in either the Muppet Mindset or Tough Pigs interviews. Of course, Howard Tubman was the only "UK Spot exclusive" character to get a...

    Just looking at a few posts in this page and saw they were posted on July 2 2012 and mistakenly thought they were posted a few days ago. Went back to the previous page to see what people were talking about.

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    Has anybody suggested a 45th anniversary trivia book or game? I can't remember if I have, and I don't feel like searching through the thread right now. Or how about a set of 45th anniversary trading cards? Maybe arranged by characters or moments from the show (or both). If I did a set of...

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    Another great DVD concept would be one of 45 segments from the show, one per season. But an idea I'd rather have would be a "45 Great Classic Clips" release (and maybe another release of 45 clips from seasons 25-2008, and one of 45 HD-produced clips). For a "45 Classic Clips" release, Id...

    Your Thoughts: "The Great Muppet Caper" and "Muppet Treasure Island" on Blu-ray

    Really? I haven't seen Muppets from Space on TV often, and it seems like the Muppet movies started to be broadcast infrequently around that time. I feel like all of the movies have been equally easy to find on video.

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    A few things about a few movies... Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey In this movie, the family has to move to San Francisco for a few weeks, and has to leave their pets with a friend who lives somewhere on the way there. The family planned to occasionally visit on weekends during that...

    Some thoughts on Muppet Treasure Island

    Lately, I'm wondering if The Muppets is too much of a hit. I don't exactly find it overrated, and it is a great movie, but it seems I've encountered a lot of fans who prefer that over the earlier movies. I guess it makes sense for people born after (or around) 1999 who may not have been too...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    Maybe because he was worn out from a busy day of news reporting? If that's true, then I'm surprised. I would have thought it'd be a no-no to have another person perform Kermit if Jim wasn't there (meaning only if Jim was performing another character in the same scene). I'm not saying you're...

    Questions about anything

    I remember reading that they were unable to contact/locate Chong at the time. Which makes me wonder what happens when somebody who gets residuals/royalties is missing... Do they hold off on releasing it until they can find them, or do they keep the money somewhere until they know where to send...

    Movies You Thought You'd Hate But Like

    I remember when I first saw Blazing Saddles, I got it for Christmas but hadn't even heard of that movie (and wasn't exactly a fan of Mel Brooks), but judging from the cover I didn't think I'd like it much (not too big on westerns). I was wrong. I also didn't think I'd like Frozen. My mom took...

    The "You know what?" thread

    I wonder when the show got to that point where it was such an institution. As I previously said, the sixth season - the first one to have such a major, radical change from previous years - was so bad that it was almost canceled (according to TV Tropes, seasons 11 and 20 were the only other...

    The Official Top 10 Anything...

    Top ten animated women that I liked back when I was too young to like girls (and given how young I was, these would not have been crushes, but for the characters they were): 1. Natasha Fatale, Rocky and Bullwinkle 2. Tinkerbelle, Disney's Peter Pan 3. Dot, Animaniacs 4. Snow White, Snow White...

    Some thoughts on Muppet Treasure Island

    Another thing that I thought: Beauregard could have had the roles of Mr. Arrow or Squire Trelawny. So Bo wouldn't have been as stern as Sam the Eagle, and maybe Captain Smollet wouldn't hire somebody as clueless as Bo (most of the crew had been hired by Squire Trelawny, but I think Smollett...

    Some thoughts on Muppet Treasure Island

    I keep reading that Sprocket shows up somewhere in this movie... Where is Sprocket? I watched today and looked closely at scenes where I would expect to see him, but couldn't. Meanwhile, I'd also read about Droop being in this, and spotted him for the first time in this movie today (his head is...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets Character Encyclopedia

    Yeah, those spreads are kinda useless. But then there's a few different kinds of two-page spreads. There are the two-page spreads with big images, mainly from Muppets Most Wanted (and a few from The Muppets), and a little box of text. It's a shame there's no such spreads from the other...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    On Pee-Wee's Playhouse, does the red door have a knob? It seems like the door usually only gets pushed (either way), and I don't ever remember seeing a knob there. But the door does get pulled open when the Salesman shows up... How does Pee-Wee pull the door open? And does he ever lock it (with...

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    It would be great if DK would put out a Sesame Street Character Encyclopedia, though when interviewed on Tough Pigs Craig Shemin speculated that it wouldn't be too likely because DK is an England-based company and Sesame Street isn't as big over there.
