Example...In MCC where he's the underdog character and doesn't even show much emotion other than being extremely grateful for Scrooge's tyranny and refusal to pay what he was worth, like Bob Cratchit should be. Other than being the authority figure and that one outburst of "WHO HIRED THIS...

How do they manage to stay in business with so many mismanaged, unfocused projects is more like it. Plain and simple, Henson needs to do focus on ONE major project at a time and see that project through. Not to make pilot episodes of 5 different things that never get finished, come up with 10...

I am not saying it's not a well done movie. I find it a great Christmas movie, but too many human characters taking the focus away from the Muppets, giving them secondary and tertiary roles kept it from being a great Muppet movie. The writing was top notch, the music was spectacular, the...

The thing about Pepe that I didn't get is that the character was so much a focal point, but other than a couple action figures (and by couple, it means one's a variant), a push puppet that blatantly copied the designs of them, a regional fast food toy promotion, and an impossible to win Carny...

The thing is, to have a Blu-Ray make any difference at all, you need an expensive TV to watch them all on. That's the station I get off at. I don't buy this whole "I have a home theater so I don't need to go to the movies" crap. Making special features exclusive to Blu Ray is... it's...

Those were far lower in quality than this film will be... Oz was an outright embarrassment, and I'd tend to think EVERYONE would want to remove their name from that. I mean, even if Fozzie actually DID fart for a long, loud 2 minutes, it still wouldn't be half as offensive as the DVD exclusive...

It was definitely an internet heavy promotion. I really hope that counts. There really SHOULD be more merchandise in casual stores... at least a couple plush toys. We got some WEIRD stuff at Wallgreens though. Not weird in a good way. I want to see MORE Muppet ads on television. AS I...

I'm working on the theory that the ONLY reason the Smurfs movie was like that as because of the Fraggle movie. Though I must say, considering one of the original concepts of the Smurfs movie was that they were dolls that a girl cried to life, I'm much happier they went with the "let's have them...

I'm kinda digging Amy, actually. I have NOOOOOO idea why, and it kinda bugs me. I refuse to say which celebs I find really hot, though. Zooey's show seems to me a complete knockoff of ABC's Happy Endings. I sort of like that show, or at least like things about it... but not half as much as I...

Is this the description you're talking about? A cartoon duo like Mutt and Jeff that predated the HB MGM cartoon by a decade? You see, the problem lies in the fact that Tom and Jerry is basically a pun on a mixed cocktail that consists of Eggnog and rum (we just call it alcoholic eggnog now)...

I have no doubt Disney would have eventually did something with the Muppets, but it wouldn't have been quite as epic or passionate as this film will be. Best we could have seen is another theme movie or another classic retelling (even though MOz showed many reasons it can go wrong), and it may...

Hah. No matter what they do to the movie, there's NO WAY it could be worse than this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIyx2W-Bl3M I will say, the Smurfs movie was less painful to watch than the Smurfs episode Karate Clumsy. Ah, the 1980's cartoon writers who have zero knowledge of Asian...

And... same guys that did the Smurfs too :rolleyes: Now, while I admit, the Smurfs wasn't as terrible as I thought it would be, it was pretty screwed up with a pointless bring them into the real world/fall into toilets plot line no matter how it went. Still, I find it Sony animation's crowning...

Pessimism ABOUT THE MOVIE... well, I wouldn't say that isn't Muppety: :boo: Of COURSE we're pessimistic about the movie! :sleep: Yeah! We're pessimistic about EVERYTHING!

I wonder if it was an availability issue. It looked like this was before PS's relaunch. I mean, Abelardo could have made an appearance, sure, but that grouch character was on the way out, right? Plus, had they another grouch, it would be too similar to the Israel segment. Whatever the...

If I May... First off... it isn't JUST a manner of someone submitting a script. We could all submit scripts, and they wouldn't get the time of day because they're UNSOLICITED. It's that combination of script, famous name, and constant pestering and lobbying to get the movie out there. If...

That probably has to do with the fact that... well, sex. I'm not beating around the bush there.

But do you know ANYONE who goes to a concert and give a crap about the opening act? I remember going to the ONLY concert I ever went to (take a wild guess... really...) and I was worried I was going to get there late, and there was a comedian there halfway through the act. I was relieved...

Ah! And who wants to bet they blew that money on M&M's they wound up eating off the floor? (I can't remember it, but there was a weird article about them involving eating M&M's off the floor and mismangaing something... MAN, I wish I had it on me right now) Wait... Total idiots, the two of...

I will say this... this is exactly why my favorite wrestling is from an obscure to us 1980's Japanese cartoon that spotted a weird toy line over here and the sequel to the series we actually got. The Muppet Labs and Gonzo getting stretched (and loving it) was great. Statler and Waldorf should...
