    Why can't Sesame cameo In Muppets Most Wanted?

    I noticed that the end credits for Muppets Most Wanted had a "puppets by Jim Henson's Creature Shop" (in addition to credits for Puppet Heap and the Muppet Workshop... In fact I think the Muppet Workshop got a credit in The Muppets as well, and I feel like I'd already brought this up a few years...

    Yeah, that Monsters University short was great, especially the ending.

    Jim Henson's Creature Shop Challenge Episode 1: What Lies Beneath

    One thing I thought of: The winner gets to work for Jim Henson's Creature Shop, yet in the past decade it's been hard for the company to get any non-CG projects made. Hopefully the company will be able to provide a project for the winner to work on. In the past few years has the creature shop...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Most Wanted Original Soundtrack

    Even though I've seen the movie and know that Tina Fey is in her Russian guard clothing during "The Big House", when I listen to the song on the album, I keep picturing her singing it in a much sexier outfit. Not as sexy as what Raquel Welch wore in her opening number, or any of the skimpy...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    I was wrong, one of them is named Monolo, not Alonzo. The Muppets felt like one of the most modern of the Muppet films (along with The Muppets Take Manhattan), but Muppets Most Wanted doesn't feel too modern. For example, when Constantine watches Kermit footage, he watches VHS tapes instead...

    The Official Top 10 Anything...

    Top ten Muppet productions I find "so okay it's average". 1. John Denver and the Muppets: A Christmas Together 2. Rocky Mountain Holiday 3. Sing-Along Dance-Along Do-Along (even as a kid I sort of felt this way) 4. Lady Gaga and the Muppets Holiday Spectacular (at least the Muppet portions) 5...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    I wonder if the "thingy thing" (I'll accept calling it that, at least until we find design sketches or script info on what it was originally called) from the Hugga Wugga number was rebuilt or not (I would think that puppet would be in poor shape after all these years, but it had previously only...

    60 Years of Muppets...

    It'd be great if Henson and Disney would collaborate on a project celebrating the anniversary of the Jim Henson Company and the Muppets. Back when the Muppets were sold, I thought the chances of a new biography of Jim Henson would be slim, because it'd be incomplete without the Muppets (which...

    Could a Muppet movie feature existing characters as undercover villains?

    I wasn't really counting movies and such where they play characters from existing stories.

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Most Wanted Original Soundtrack

    Since it was included in the trailers, I had not had a problem with Scooter singing "Moves Like Jagger", but when I got the album, the first few times I listened to it I didn't feel like listening to the whole song and kept skipping to the next track (so many better songs on the album... I've...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    It's interesting when after Constantine tells the others that Walter quit, they're only surprised because he had just joined them (and the last movie was all about him joining them), with nobody pointing out what a big fan he was of the Muppets (it should have been more of a shock that the...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Most Wanted Original Soundtrack

    Listening to the Brett McKenzie tracks, his impressions at times seem to suggest that certain lines were originally going to go to different characters. Like his rendition of "We're Doing a Sequel", it sounds like Sam was going to sing Bunsen's line about it being their seventh sequel (I keep...

    Could a Muppet movie feature existing characters as undercover villains?

    After seeing the scene in Muppets Most Wanted where Bobby Benson's babies help the bad guys, it got me wondering: Could (or, more importantly, should) a Muppet movie feature an existing obscure character working undercover for the Muppets but really being a bad guy? I'm not talking about...

    Fozzie's Comedy Tour

    I must say that this was a little hard to write. I had trouble with thinking up good enough jokes that Fozzie would say, but had a bit of fun writing the last few chapters that had a bit more plot focus up in the wintery area. As I had trouble thinking up Fozzie-worthy jokes, I reused a lot of...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Most Wanted Original Soundtrack

    I got the soundtrack a few days ago, and it's great. After having seen the movie once and listening to the music, there's a few things I forgot that I got wrong at first. Like in "Something So Right", I thought Scooter's line was being sung by Janice. And one of Constantine's lines in "I'm...
