    Pre-Order "Muppets Most Wanted" Blu-ray available August 12

    If a bonus is not related to the feature itself on a DVD or Blu-Ray then it's just pointless consumerism for the company's other franchises. It's like if Sony made another Blu-Ray for The Muppets Take Manhattan, and added a special feature, and it was a smurfs short.

    Disney has done everything RIGHT in 2014

    Well, ya Disney kind of over-did advertising. I mean just 1 toyota commercial during the super bowl, and lipton tea during the oscars was quite enough to get people on the road, as well as advertisements for the film every now and then, but they totally over-killed with the billions of shows...

    TMS: Would Its Quality Decline If Continued?

    Look the point is, no matter how many stars, a future TMS episode had, first do you think all those people would agree to star (lucille ball especially) and ya most would, but could they really keep it fresh, they'd probably resort to repeating sketches like SS, and the writers would resort to...

    TMS: Would Its Quality Decline If Continued?

    I know, it kind of bums me out sometimes when we have to leave such a good backstage plot for the guest star number, as much as I love that too, I want more devolpment too, that's why I liked MT a lot, because well ya they fawned over the guest stars, but they also had longer backstage scenes.

    TMS: Would Its Quality Decline If Continued?

    As we watch shows like the simpsons, modern family, or even something like SS we sigh thinking how the show is now a shadow of its glorious past, but would that happen to TMS if there was a season 6,7,8,9,or even 10? I mean there are only so many guest stars and sketches they could continue to...

    Muppet Classic Theater Revisited

    Have a tape, I found it in a thrift store, but I didn't really know what it was, but I got it anyway. I think it's an okay/good video, I mean I've only watched it twicem in the nearly 1 year time-span that I've owned it, so I'm not too fond of it, it's decent, but I wish there were more central...

    Neat idea, but there are only so many muppet books that are not picture books.

    Kermit's Swamp Years Blu-Ray

    It's kind of a shame this film sucks considering the rich juicy special features it has Commentary with Kermit and Horace Behind the Scenes Featurette On the Set with Kermit Blooper Reel Yet all we can see for GMC is a stupid pepe interview and frog-e-oke at best.

    Kermit's Swamp Years Blu-Ray

    That's about what the film is worth to me. Even less actually. I've seen the VHS tape of the film for 1.00 at billions of thrift stores, but I refuse to buy it, heck I'd rather buy an extra copy of MCT, at least that didn't turn the muppets into Elmo World's.
