    The Muppets is now the top-grossing Muppet movie

    Here's the thing... I don't find the movies to be that much of an abomination (at least in substance) because Alvin and the Chipmunks never really had much to it. It was basically a recording gimmick that was anthropomorphized into cartoonish characters (and they did indeed look like actual...

    Disney Store Muppet Merchandise Released

    Movie or no movie, Rizzo and Pepe have been climbing in popularity in recent years, and have major roles in the first major Disney project, LTS. Still, Uncle Deadly had a significant role in the film, and I'd love to see a push for more Uncle Deadly merchandise. Though I would love to see...

    Sesame Street Stays Up Late

    I finally get the chance to see this, and the guy closed his account completely.

    Muppet Christmas Carol origin

    MCC's only real fault was being the first major project without Jim, not to mention the loss of Richard as well, and they were wondering just where the Muppets stood in their own film. Making Gonzo and Rizzo the narrators perked the movie up... but I still don't think calling it, in name only...

    My contribution to fan art

    Poogy wasn't exactly very easy, considering it was my first time... but for some reason, Muppets with more details are easier for me to draw than more simplistic ones. Rowlf and Ernie's slanted eyes always pose a problem for me... I always get one good, the other off angle. The hardest part...

    Muppet Christmas Carol origin

    Muppets are never going to get a Halloween special, are they? They have more Christmas stuff than any other franchise. I wonder what the original version of MCC was to be. I bet the TV special was more Muppety... I really do like the movie, but I think they got everything done better with...

    Funko POP! Muppet figures coming in 2012

    It was almost obvious we'd see something from them considering their Disney License and all. Of course the first big merchandise hits well after the movie. I'd LOVE for the license to include Wacky Wobblers too. More accurate representations of the characters.

    The Muppets is now the top-grossing Muppet movie

    There's no internet footage of someone saying "Of course it did," and punching a hole in the wall, is there? I was kinda expecting it. Anyway, I wish Tintin was doing better... the theater I saw it in was virtually packed with kids I swore would go see Chipmunks.

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 42

    Like I said... back to normal. I missed the first couple minutes, but it was clearly going to be another one of those episodes... Of course, it combined 2 of those episodes... Elmo and one of three female monsters things in nature are different and let's build something through trial and...

    The Muppets is now the top-grossing Muppet movie

    Like I said... I wonder why DC has to try to get all these movies out when they've only had success with Chris Nolan's Batman movies as of late. I didn't think the movie was too bad, but I never cared much about the character... so that kinda helps. If that sequel gets made, I hope they take...

    Muppet specials you wish would come out on DVD

    I wish there was a way for them to dig deep into the archives and have every unreleased/unaired but produced and completed Little Muppet Monsters cartoon segment. They aren't the most spectacular thing in the world, but a wonderfully weird Muppet artifact. Even if we were to get the 3 aired...

    Disney Store Muppet Merchandise Released

    That's the one thing I think we're taking for granted... we have NEVER had a general release Pepe plush until now. Even then, this blows that stupid carney one out of the water, and at probably a lot less than you'd have to blow at ring toss or a crane game to grab him up. I hear women and...

    Is it time for a good Muppets video game?

    I have a strong feeling we could get a Muppets Kinect game. That's just me. Hopefully, whoever does it paid close attention to Once Upon a Monster. I hear nothing but good things about that one.

    My contribution to fan art

    Glad to hear... or rather read it. No one realizes how much I need the occassional compliment like that. I'm always one foot out the door with everything, as I get frustrated so easily with things. Pleasant comments always bring me back. Now for the first thing in over a month: Kismet the...

    The Muppets is now the top-grossing Muppet movie

    I get my info from Muppet Wiki that gets its info directly from Box Office Mojo. International does count, but watching domestic is far more important. That's kind of a bad example. Only because, at the time, Disney was making DTV sequels of absolutely everything. I have no doubt the movie...

    The Muppets is now the top-grossing Muppet movie

    Mission Impossible and Sherlock Holmes are doing quite well for themselves... but like I said before, Green Lantern made over 100 million... it was number 1 its first week, but because the budget was well over 300 million, it was considered a flop. Chipmunks, no doubt, is a cheap film. it will...

    Anyone else tired of seeing Animal with pink hair?

    Color layering is beautiful to look at, a pain in the neck to get to look right. I have SOOOO many problems with Gonzo's nose... On the subject, I never liked Pink Lollipop Animal. Same reason I hate fat Twiddlebug looking Cookie Monster plush. Plush rarely gets Animal's fur close enough, I...

    The Muppets is now the top-grossing Muppet movie

    The film is still about in a couple theaters... I know at least one that still has it anyway. Still, I felt that would be the strongest potential competition for the Muppets... I think it did a decent job taking some of the potential B.O. from that one, though... I'm giggling about how poorly...

    Romney wants ads during Sesame Street

    Yeah! Why isn't that group I'm always complaining about, Commercial Free Childhood, jumping at these guys? PBS is in dire straights, and they're ALWAYS the first to look at when the Reps want to pretend to cut fat, fat they'll use for more cheap political point wars or payola to big fat blobby...

    Romney wants ads during Sesame Street

    Despicable isn't even the word. The money these sleezeballs are bound to spend enough money on garbage attack ads to fund PBS, pledge drive free for the next 50 years. The Neo-Cons are serious about destroying PBS, and this is a dreadful warning of what they can do... all the while giving...
