    Your Thoughts: "The Muppets" Theatrical Film

    Jason really wanted to put his Muppet likeness made by Henson during the filming of Forgetting Sarah Marshall into the movie. I think the whole song was an excuse for that. And it's just wonderfully done. Still, I kinda wanted a Where's Waldo like scene where you can spot his Dracula puppet...

    Frank Oz worked on a new Muppet movie script

    Michael Bay is basically Uwe Boll with a better agent. He makes terrible films no one really likes and he thinks he's great for it. The difference is major studios release Bay's films. People just randomly see them. I give them credit for using the original cartoon voice cast... that's it...

    Dad hears a "racial slur" on Fraggle Rock

    The problem with the Mafia is simple... the Italian one's the only one people know about or even associate BECAUSE of The Godfather. Every culture has their own Mafia... Russians, Irish... the Japanese Yakuza. And while I see references here and there to the others (like that episode of...

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

    So, anyone actually know where I can get this T-Shirt? Or better yet this one? They really are having a LOT of fun with these shirts, no matter what. Goofing on the Ernie and Bert issue just shows how much wacky fun they wanna have with these. So much more fun than the standard character...

    How well does the new movie have to do?

    Had I the 10 bucks, i woulda got it at TRU. I hear it's a better experience on DVD anyway. Still, had this been on a real network, I'm sure the ratings would have been a smash.

    Interview with Dave Coulier on "Muppet Babies"

    That would be my fear too if they were making a new series... but I'm sure they'd try to get Jeffrey Scott back as head writer... maybe Hank Saroyan too. But I don't see them making a new Muppet Babies any time soon. Though it would be a fun addition to Disney junior. But in reference to...

    How well does the new movie have to do?

    And as I said before, unadvertised. And in reference I meant the CW in general. Seriously.. I wish I knew it was on. [kicks over soda can with hands in pockets] Shoulda flipped through the channels. Arrgh!

    New Muppet Sippy Cups

    Even Kermit? :) :laugh: Not much of a resemblance there... but hey, she's 2. I once wore a Mr. Potatohead Toy Story shirt (once, I only wore it to TS3) and a little kid thought it was Elmo, and it's not even a Muppet. :insatiable:

    Wild Thornberries DVD (interesting development)

    Rocko Season 2 actually has special features!! Not many, but it's impressive to have ANY of them these days.

    Songs You Can't Stand

    I'm none too fond of that kind of music, but she really masters it completely. I always complain about when rock stars get too old they record old standards (though I think Rod Stewart is really good with it), but she's someone who NEEDS to go back and do this stuff whenever possible. I'm sure...

    Will Muppet Fandom Continue To Be Underground?

    Yeah... if it weren't for my lack of money, I'd ransack the Disney Store for everything they have a couple times over. Thing is, I want to see LOTS and lots of merchandise, but I know I'll only be able to get like a tenth of it. It's not so much what you can buy or own, so much as the...

    Frank Oz worked on a new Muppet movie script

    I'd LOVE to see John Cleese write that one. Somehow he's the epitome of strange yet sophisticated humor, and that kind of perspective would make a movie based on such a strange concept to work. Not saying he should write the whole thing, but rather give a pass at it to punch up the total...

    Songs You Can't Stand

    Honestly, I think she's in the WRONG type of music, myself. I heard her cover some Jazz standards, and she's perfect for that. Even her unplugged piano versions of some of her songs are better than the technopop versions. But I will say this... she IS the master of mainstream American...

    Frank Oz worked on a new Muppet movie script

    The thing that mystifies me is the existence of this script. I want more proof than sort of kind of in an article. We're a Muppet fan site and we've been following this movie since it was just the rumblings of a couple famous Henson fans. The question is, why WOULDN'T we have heard about it...

    Frank Oz worked on a new Muppet movie script

    But again, ALL entertainment is pretty much like this. If anything, kid's television (at least preschoolers) is inorganically slow for the purposes of pretending it's interactive when it isn't. All the popular TV shows are pretty much whizz bang blink and you miss it pacing... from 30 Rock to...

    Songs You Can't Stand

    I just can't flat out stand Madonna! I blame her for Dick Tracy not doing well. Anytime someone says "Lady Gaga ripped off Madonna" I have to say, if that were possible, Gag's music wouldn't be catchy or even remotely good. When Sean Penn punched out that guy with a camera, he clearly WAS in...

    Dad hears a "racial slur" on Fraggle Rock

    From what I read, that was more of a case of not realizing how bad it was... the writers and animators thought it was a tribute. The thing that always gets lost is the fact it was a WW2 propaganda cartoon too. That was the message they were trying to spread at the time, but it got lumped in...

    Free Comic Book Day 2012 announced (includes Labyrinth)

    Here's the details and all the titles Still... the most exciting thing is Adventure Time. Too bad it has to share a flip... The Mega Man would interest me more had it not been a first issue reprint. Seems they went ahead of the usual Sonic the Hedgehog comic (which at least has new...

    Will Muppet Fandom Continue To Be Underground?

    I think he would agree to you on the buying every single piece of merchandise, as would I... I didn't even get the whole series of regular run figures. I'm missing Marvin Suggs. There's no call for that unappreciated and obscure a character to be worth that much. Even though I wanted the...

    Anyone else think that D A is a bit stuck up?

    I don't even have a phone that texts... okay.. a phone plan that lets me text... nor the need or want to. Luckily it hooked me up to my Yahoo email. I didn't get it just now... but I couldn't log back in until I changed the password.
