    Are these the new Fraggle puppets for the movie?

    Yeah, those are photo puppets. And, if I remember right, Wembley's hair did have all those different colors in it. :coy: It is a picture I haven't seen before, though. It's possible that they rebuilt the posers.

    All three Master Replica Muppets $550.00

    Ha ha! Nice. I would have taken the I.O.U. Muppets, too. :p Hope whoever bought 'em enjoys 'em! (and doesn't just turn around and make a huge profit on eBay) :coy: :)

    Very Brief Cameos: Your Picks for the New Muppet Movie

    Weird Al Yankovic is deffinitely on my list! Choose: Steve Martin. Yes, he was in The Muppet Movie, but I'd still like to see him work with the Muppets again. Choose: Bernadette Peters. I love her with the Muppets, it'd be cool if she could be in a Muppet movie, too. She's really talented...

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    Yeah, for all you know, it could just be a way of getting some free publicity for her new movie. Kinda like her marriage to Brad Pitt was for Mr. and Mrs. Smith... :zany: *gets pelted with penguins and tomatoes* I'm kidding! I'm kidding!

    Very Brief Cameos: Your Picks for the New Muppet Movie

    Perhaps this is kind of an odd choice, but... :flirt: Choose: Amy Adams. She's kinda new, but she's really, really good! I like her work so far. I think she'd be great with the Muppets.

    Angelina Jolie In Talks to Star in New Muppet Film

    Maybe Angelina could appear alongside her Muppet likeness. Okay, not exactly, but close enough. :flirt:

    Carroll Spinney

    Firstly, his name is Caroll. C-A-R-O-L-L (no, it doesn't matter that it's mis-spelled as Carroll in the credits for both The Muppet Movie and The Great Muppet Caper, it's still Caroll. :)). Secondly, that sounds like a really good idea! I like it. It would be interesting to see it get pulled...

    Cameo spots you loved, yay! (and hated, booo!)

    I forgot about Pat Hingle in Muppets from Space! That was a great cameo, too!

    Angelina Jolie In Talks to Star in New Muppet Film

    I think his "no CGI" comment refers to the fact that he doesn't want to replace the Muppets with CG characters. There are several techniques you can use to pull off a complicated Muppet shot without CGI (the only use of it would be to remove the puppeteers). That kind of shot is a thousand times...

    Cameo spots you loved, yay! (and hated, booo!)

    Beau, the El Sleazo owner is James Cobourn. Favorite Cameos: The Muppet Movie - Orson Welles. It seems like they saved the best for last here. He seems to be respected by so many people. And, the scene seals the Muppets as genuine movie stars. The Great Muppet Caper - Jerry Nelson and...

    That voice...

    Since he doesn't have a name, and he's really just a running gag, that'd be kinda difficult. Though, it's some nice information. Perhaps it could be mentioned on the Frank Oz page at some point.

    Yes! Big Bird as a croquet bat! Fantastic! I don't know how you spell Croak-eh. I think I'll just spell it like that from now on. Croak-eh. A Canadian frog. :) Maybe Big Bird will narrate it. :wisdom:

    Trekkie Monster replicas

    Rick Lyon used large, plastic spoons for the eyes. Not the disposable plastic spoons, but serving spoons. I'm not sure what he used for the bags under his eyes, but although his are plastic, you could get a nice effect just using a piece of tan fabric. I'd say, for the horns, you really just...

    You wouldn't accept a 550 dollar I.O.U., would ya? I really hope someone shows some interest in these. What a great and generous deal!

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    Well, that's what I meant. If she played the villain, then she would be starring in it, just like Grodin and Curry starred in the Muppet movies that they were in.

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    :smirk: It said "starring"? Hmmm. If it's a cameo, I think it's a great idea! But, starring? ... Ooooh! Maybe she'd be the bad guy! Then "starring" would be a fine word to use! It would be like saying Charles Grodin starred in The Great Muppet Caper, or Tim Curry starred in Muppet Treasure...

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    Well, I do believe that alot of what's ultimately filmed should be somewhat "on the spot". But, I also think that should be built up from something solid. Then again, Cassablanca was based on a play, so they did have something. A certain amount of ad-libbing is always great for movies...
