    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    I don't even know why they bother doing comic book movies... it's like, who are they for? Comic book fans hate them, the general public doesn't know half the characters... It's like only because of the Iron Man movie that people know Iron Man existed. The incessant Bro-ness of Green Lantern...

    The Muppets is Brainwashing Our Kids

    Something tells me a white guy wrote that. There ARE white rappers. Why isn't this guy whining about Eminem or something? Anyway, if the Foozie was the problem, dude... that was a nod the the Family Guy wrong sounding Muppets cutaway... "Wocka Wocka! Who wants to hear a funny ^%$$ joke?"

    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    It's not that Green Lantern was a bad movie, it's just a comic book franchise with a tediously long origin story that is impossible to tell in the length of a single movie. The scenes where Reynolds was hot dogging and clowning around were the few breathers the movie had. You think the pacing...

    What would it take for you to stop watching current episodes?

    They showed a 1970's Ernie and Bert sketch as late as 2003, and no one complained. There are a LOT of Muppet segments that are naturally timeless that could be easily inserted into any given episode and not look strange. The only thing I'd see a problem are the filmed kids segments... and I've...

    Interview with Dave Coulier on "Muppet Babies"

    It's one of the few 1980's cartoon staples that hasn't been released yet. Time Life eventually had Sony crack and release The Real Ghostbusters. That was one of the biggest hold outs. He-Man, Thundercats, Transformers and G.I. Joe(by the grace of Shout factory we got those back), TMNT, even...

    If "The Muppets" is a success: What's next?

    P&F, I must stress highly, is a sign that Disney Channel can change it's programming... sure, P&F does have a tween following, but it also has a kiddy following and an adult following. I mean, Dr. Doof is the wackiest craziest cartoon villain since Powerpuff Girls went off the air. They didn't...

    The Muppets is Brainwashing Our Kids

    Like I said... the whole plan was for an oil tycoon to make alternative fuels look dangerous, driving the cars back into the safety of oil based fuels. That's why I loved the second one over the first one, an anti-oil conglomerate conspiracy theory.

    Hollywood has done it again...

    I disagree on Jim Carrey... I'd hate to see yet another fat suit comedy for one... and Jim's stretched a little too thin, especially since he's making kiddy films (some quite lousy). Will Sasso's pretty good. I'm a fan of his MadTV work, and I swore I saw him play Curly in a MadTV sketch. I'd...

    More CGI Looney Tunes shorts

    I'm sure these are just theatrical shorts, like that Wile E. Coyote one was for the Yogi Movie. What's more curious is the source material... they're old Looney Tunes novelty songs. Something they oddly didn't animate for 50 years.

    Kevin Clash on TMZ

    TMZ is a the TV equivalent of a British Tabloid. I here those ones are infinitely worse than ours ever would hope to be. TMZ is an evil organization shellbent on dragging down and destroying even the nicest of all celebrities. To go after Kevin in such a way goes to prove how much class they...

    Rewind Reviews: A Special Sesame Street Christmas

    It did, at least in my market. Once. Saturday Morning during a pledge drive, back when they still had kid's pledge drives (seems the PBS broadcast of the Theatrically released Curious George movie, and its DTV sequel could very well be the start of doing that again... but I doubt it). I...

    Muppet Family Christmas

    Disney has full rights to the special and could release it in tact if they wanted to (and I'm sure they'd try to clear up music rights this time). However, it isn't a matter of not wanting to release this special. It's a matter of not wanting to release any special. other than the three we...

    Sesame Workshop Trying To Have It Both Ways(Bert/Ernie issue)

    Michael Jackson was a special case. I don't think he actually did anything, but something happened once in the 90's, and then greedy turds started sending their kids to Michael Jackson and then they came up with false accusations so they could get the same hush money that one family demanded in...

    The Muppets may be in trouble. :-/

    No thanks to Disney's bad WTP preschool shows (never saw book of Pooh and can't judge on that) and Disney's marketing since the 90's Pooh became a preschool thing. That's a real shame. The classic Pooh shorts, even the newer Pooh movies were brilliantly done. I'm guessing too many parents...

    Hollywood has done it again...

    That biopic was brilliant and I usually hate biopics. Gave a lot of depth on the performers over their flanderized head bonks and eye pokes. The only cringe I see with this movie is the TOTALLY unnecessary inclusion of the Jersey Ho's. If it wasn't for that, it seems that... well, they got...

    Rewind Reviews: A Special Sesame Street Christmas

    I'll probably see this later... but I have to admit, this is my LEAST favorite Sesame Street Christmas Special. I love Oscar and Big Bird, but it really needed more Muppets and less random guests NOT singing Christmas songs. There is stiff competition for first. Who doesn't love Christmas Eve...

    The Muppets is Brainwashing Our Kids

    Ehhh... I don't know about this, anyway. Why does everyone bother taking the integrity of a news organization that PURPOSELY scours the country every year for any instance of a "Holiday Tree" just so they can put on their annual Christmas Special "War on Christmas?" Seriously state and local...

    Sesame Workshop Trying To Have It Both Ways(Bert/Ernie issue)

    The stories of coaches are a little more common than you think. Just not the Sandusky type prestige and press, it's on a far more local level. Why background checks aren't common place to begin with when directly working for kids is beyond me. You get a much more thorough and relentless...

    Songs You Can't Stand

    I can't stand "Just one Person." Not like the rest of these songs... hearing it makes me just absolutely depressed due to the fact I will forever associate it with Jim Henson's passing, and the special and memorial service that used it. Took me forever not to tear up hearing Rainbow...
