Neil's been around for years, and because he didn't fall into the same traps that other child actors fell into and found his way to Broadway. That's why he still has a career. Add the Harold and Kumar movies brought him back to the public. That's how he got on HIMYM. But he's like in...

Yeah, but with Tron, you had a movie famous for not doing well and becoming cult because it never did well. Why they did a sequel to it decades later is beyond me... I don't know if it did well or not, I wasn't following it. I'm guessing it at least did better than the first one. But the...

I just think it glorifies bad writing. It's just all around bad, and the acting is wooden. not comedically wooden. It's a lame sex fantasy and nothing more. But HAH! The pathetic opening of Arthur Christmas makes me happy. It only did 0.8 million better than a movie that opened a month...

I heard of the Chew from a rant DWmcKim posted on the death of ABC Daytime's soaps. I really wanna hear what he'd have to say about it in this thread. I felt it was both stupid as heck as a premise, but almost funny that they'd resort to such a dumb concept, basically picking a show that...

Yeah, the Muppet team helped them shape the script, and the changes were all welcomed. And I honestly think the changes from the original fit the movie much better. There's a valid specific reason why Kermit has that house and it is revealed in the movie. But everything that's sent to them...

It definitely was THE best Post-Henson Muppet project there is. See? All it took was some new blood.

If anyone has footage of the ALF, I wanna see it. Who did Mickey's voice for that toy? Goofy sounds like Will Ryan (who was the voice of WoW's Grubby the Octopede).

I'm probably the only one, or one of few, who felt this one was better than Hawaiian vacation. Maybe because I'm closer to Buzz and Zurg... bit I loved the support group for abandoned toys, all suggesting full sized expensive action figure Buzz was in denial. Loved seeing the Changable, and...

Not the most exciting of Promotional stuff, but I will treasure it. Seems Disney store employees are wearing these little magnetic buttons... someone managed to snag me one, and of a great character too.

Words completely and utterly escape me. While I think we have to wait to hear about box office to really say the Muppets are back commercially, they're freakin' back spiritually BAYBEEEEE! No more depressed Gonzo from MFS and LTS... he's back with Camilla and doing crazy stunts... the way Gonzo...

I'd say it has to place pretty well (like at least in the top 3) on opening weekend, and do just as well second weekend. And I've been saying that it bugs me that every kid's movie in the world is opening up in the same 2 weekend period. None of them look that good, and I'm pretty sure the 3-D...

Cars merchandise sold solidly when the film first came out, and little boys love it. That's the answer to that. This time they clearly made waaaaaay too much stuff, but they at least felt there was a reason to. I understand the lack of major action figure type Muppet stuff... but I honestly...

Think of it this way... you may not see the film for another 2 months, BUT you get to ride the hype train a little longer. I bet you get Muppets popping up on UK talk shows and more special parody trailers and all this other fun stuff... And your merchandise comes out well before the movie, so...

Yeah. The woman that has that account has a collection of Teddy Ruxpin type toys (especially Teddy... her name even has "octopede," the imaginary species that Teddy's pal Grubby is). Strangely enough, no ALF... but she also has a Snoopy and a very broken Mickey. I never had the Snoopy, but I...

Disney could be a good choice, even though the caveat would be that Disney kinda wants to distance their Muppet ownership from Henson... at least with new projects. And that also depends on how well the movie does. Lucasfilm would make more sense if George wasn't batcrackers. I'd see him...

The whining by Dreadline basically sums up why I'm glad the Muppets didn't become the hosts... the whole "ABC owns Disney, they own the Muppets, promotional stunt" crap (did anyone whine when the Emmys were on Fox and the star of one of Fox's biggest hits hosted? I think NOT!) That said, these...

Heh. Exactly the point. We're kinda disappointed Disney didn't do more. I understand their excuses, and I don't expect to see too much of anything, but the fact that there isn't any cheaper Christmas stuff at the very least kinda puts a damper on things. Other than the fact Disney refuses...

It really seemed like there was a vehicle for Diego to toss in the towel and just wait to die, and then whatever that was got cut, and therefore never explored. Yeah, Blue Sky is trying desperately to make this their personal Shrek, and it isn't really biting. Shrek's been absorbed into pop...

I wish Dwmckim were here... he'd probably have some choice words about that show. As for me, by that time, I'm going to go see something a little better than a 5 minute Muppet appearance.

The problem is, Henson's best ideas require money. Something that they need someone else to help provide them with. like I said before, even the days of Old Jim, Henson needed business partners to help release movies and home videos and get projects off the ground. I don't want to repeat what...
