    'Transformers' Rolling Out in Live-Action Film

    The intellectual side of me says I shouldn't like a show built around the merchandising, but I must admit I have a nostalgic affection for the show. Thanks for posting this, Jamie! I also hope they use the "classic" characters -- Optimus Prime, Megatron, Starscream, Bumblebee, Shockwave, etc...

    New Muppet Babies Stuff

    Yeah, with all their supposed push back towards "adult" and "edgy," this seems like a huge step backwards. Teens would be too embarrassed to wear this stuff, little kids don't remember it, and adult Muppet fans typically hate the Babies. So who exactly are they targeting? I actually like the...

    vBulletin 3.0 Beta: Questions and Answers

    Tres cool! I also like that the smileys got shuffled around. It looked like we had a whole new set there for a minute! :zany:

    Your Feedback: Forum Rules

    Mmmm...cinammon seats. I think the rules are just fine. People seem to be thinking that they're really oppressive or something. But in fact, the most common complaint I hear about MC is that they don't kick people out FAST enough for their tastes. Every attempt at grace is given here, and...

    Father's Day Menu

    Jamie's menus: they're like an ocean cruise...only there's no water and you don't actually go anywhere! ;) Fantastic job as always, Jamie! A great follow-up to the earlier FR menu. I keep running my mouse over Pa Gorg's mouth to make him talk. I can pretend I'm Jerry Nelson...no, really, I...

    The Muppets Take Hollywood at Jack in the Box

    Chris, How much did you end up getting for the first set you sold? Just curious.

    Left handedness.....

    WILL EVERYONE PLEASE STOP POSTING IN THIS THREAD??? Oh, wait...I just posted in this thread. ;) :p :smirk:

    Trailer for Looney Tunes; BIA

    That's really funny. The Sam scene in the documentary is nearly juxtaposed with a shot of Zemeckis saying, "We've got a new line for Mel"--which would seem to indicate it was a last-minute addition! What's the lesson here, kids? Never believe what you see in documentaries. :smirk: That's...

    Trailer for Looney Tunes; BIA

    I'm astonished. I just double-checked it on IMDB and yes, Joe Alaskey voiced Yosemite Sam in Who Framed Roger Rabbit (as well as Foghorn Leghorn). Why?? Mel Blanc was still alive at this point and did almost all of the other characters. I even saw a CBS special where they're talking about all...

    Trailer for Looney Tunes; BIA

    Well, the only similarity was between the blue-skinned, black-bearded villain and the Genie. But...whatever. I may be remembering this whole thing wrong anyway. I just checked IMDB, and I found two things very amusing. First, that when you type in "The Thief and the Cobbler," the poster for...

    The Muppets Take Hollywood at Jack in the Box

    Louis, I'm sorry you're taking this so hard. I have helped out people online before, both friends and strangers, and if the issue had been raised differently, who knows? Oh, well. No hard feelings on my end. To the rest of you, your comments and feedback are greatly appreciated.

    Your Thoughts: Muppet Monopoly Collector's Edition

    Kermielovah, remember "Toy Story 2." Toys and games are meant to be played with. Do you really want to look back on all those "fond years" of staring at a box you couldn't open? And whether or not something will become valuable is always impossible to gauge. I have a bunch of Star Wars figures...

    The Muppets Take Hollywood at Jack in the Box

    Louis, if you had asked politely, perhaps someone would have been willing to consider your suggestion. There were more tactful ways to bring this subject up. The idea of helping other fans out is not a bad one. However, there are some things to consider: 1) If I offered to do it for all...

    Trailer for Looney Tunes; BIA

    Forgive me if I'm speaking out of turn; maybe I don't know all the facts. But wasn't the design of the Genie ripped off from the Richard Williams film "The Thief and the Cobbler"? It wasn't released at the time of "Aladdin," but Williams had been working on it for something like 20 years, and...

    Trailer for Looney Tunes; BIA

    I'm glad Noel's doing his own thing. I saw the same special Jamie did. That's where Mel said he thought his son was the only one to do a good job imitating him. And the imitation was decent, but I've heard better. In Box Office Bunny (a 1990 short), one guy played Bugs, Daffy and Elmer, and I...

    Trailer for Looney Tunes; BIA

    Here's the synopsis from IMDB.com: "Fed up with all the attention going to Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck quits Hollywood, teams up with recently-fired stuntman Bobby Delmont (Fraser) and embarks on a round-the-world adventure. Their mission? Find Bobby's father's missing blue diamond... and stay one...
