    The things some "fans" say...

    I hate to be mean to Hal Rayle, but his Raph voice was terrible, his Miss Piggy wasn't all that good.... his Animal was only okay. On the other hand, I don't find the episodes where Greg Berg voiced Donatello as Jarring. Though i find it absolutely strange that the non-union voice actor (they...

    The things some "fans" say...

    Among other things, didn't they replace certain members anyway? Replacing a human acting troupe is not like replacing cartoon voice actors or puppeteers. I mean, you can't replace Elvis, you can just get Elvis impersonators. Replacing the entire Marx Brothers with other comedians would barely...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    I dunno... I like Penguins and all, but no one has improved on Muppet Penguins. Other than Robin Williams, the thing didn't appeal to me. Gah! I Know! How come we were literally bombarded by crappy toys from F-grade studio movies like Planet 51, but there was nothing from a film who's toys...

    Cars 2

    Wait for it.... Cars 2 (by a medium sized margin) > the first one. I don't know how, I dunno why, but they totally managed to make it much more interesting this go around. And I gotta admit, as fuzzy I was about the Spy theme, but they managed to pull it off a LOT less jarring than they did...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    Okay, poverty and cheapness won out and I saw the 2-D version. Plus, there was this whole thing where they ran BOTH versions of the movie in one theater in the place I wanted to see it, so I'd have to have seen it REALLY early (1:00, meaning I'd have to leave at 11:00 to get there) or go...

    Funniest SS Skit In Ages: Spidermonster!

    I don't have HD, so it looks more or less "alright" but again, I'd get into the widescreen/full frame thing and about how some of the markets don't even show it in HD Wideframe... it doesn't look perfectly clean, but you can't really tell much of a difference between the new and old skits in an...

    Muppet Plagiarism of Fozzie and Me

    Or it was the first one to pop up on a quick search. I like his claims of "Check out my Other Item" and they're all crappy watches with stolen icons and logos.

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    That puts me in an awkward situation. I definitely want to see Cars 2... and the ONLY time I like going to 3-D films is when they're animated... and even then, I ONLY do Pixar and Dreamworks. Seems for some reason, it's the ONLY thing that works that way (especially since I was forced to see...

    Me and the Pajanimals - Licensing Expo

    The strange thing is, CGI cartoons never have much of a shelf life on American TV unless they're for Preschoolers. Other than Reboot or Jimmy Neutron, I can't think of one that even lasted a single season that wasn't for preschoolers. Unfortunately, flash/after effects type stuff is what I see...

    International skits on Youtube...

    I'm REALLY hoping those videos you're looking for aren't by a certain YT user. There are 2 that have posted a LOT of Rechov Sumsum/Shalom Sesame clips... one was banned for posting some other Hebrew dubbed TV and cartoon theme song clips. I just can't remember which one, and I hope they have a...

    Cars 2

    I do plan to see this, but my standards are significantly lowered. It seems enjoyable, and I usually enjoy a movie for what it is when I hear what some of the flaws are. This WILL be a Mater-centric movie, and it has a very kiddy friendly plot. I'll definitely consider that and probably enjoy...

    Muppet Plagiarism of Fozzie and Me

    You actually have a point. You know, out of ALL the really bad Disney bootlegged merchandise I've seen, they never have used unofficial art. Stolen official art squashed, stretched, and ugly looking... but never unofficial. For every lead paint encrusted Super Buzz Spaceyear Batman YAY toy...

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    I honestly feel that Obama could be a force for good outside of politics (look at Gore), just... some things are inevitable in politics, left or right. Like our whole up the Middle East's butt world view and keeping Godzilla business stomp us all flat. I think everyone just put too much stock...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    Dreamworks movies have been steadily getting better... but PIB still seems like an old concept that they only made for the sake of making. Actually, they pretty much rolled out plans for PIB spinoff movie when they were still threatening to do like 7 Shrek films. Luckily, they decided to kill...

    Muppet Plagiarism of Fozzie and Me

    Here's the thing I'm thinking about... would the main companies care if someone stole unsolicited fan art to put on bootleg merchandise? No one really pays to use their likenesses here... and I'm sure every company's legal department is gonna come up with some anti-Fair Use bill anyway...

    "The Looney Tunes Show" premieres May 3, 2011

    Would you rather them go back to being a generic action heroes with little or no humor or would you rather them just rot away on old footage and complain about how terrible new cartoons are? I'm sick of hearing BOTH. Nobody likes reboots, and no body likes new ideas. So called cartoon fans...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    A) No preview? That's total BS. How come we have 4 trailers and only one was shown theatrically? B) I am frightened to death of Puss In Boots and the competition that one poses. I want to want to see it, but I just don't think I could financially make that happen, since I clearly want to see...

    Me and the Pajanimals - Licensing Expo

    Disney clearly wants to keep that (thankfully soon to be outdated) Dora "Find the green rectangle that's in plain sight" garbage alive and well. I don't know how to feel about that's the only way Disney's main Mickey and Donald characters get into toy stores... the show sucks, but at least...

    Hopes for The Muppet Show Season 4

    Yeah, but those are probably mostly comprised of old taped off TV stuff. There could be some ripped from the Columbia DVD's, sure... nice and digitally remastered with the UK skits and everything... For me, it's not so much about being able to watch the show, but to have it on DVD as a...

    Funniest SS Skit In Ages: Spidermonster!

    Beauty has nothing to do with me. But I HATE the crap out of my hair. I have this annoying double cowlick and NO ONE who ever cuts my hair seems to know that and I either wind up getting it cut too short or too long so I have to go again sooner only for them to cut it too short or too long. I...
