    Why did this NEED to be made?

    Hehe heh. Yeah, there are a lot of creators that are quite happy to see life breathed into their characters, but there are also some that think they're the end all be all. Of course, with most of the movies made of his comics, Alan Moore was RIGHTFULLY angry. League of Extraordinary...

    Sesame Street teaches girls about Self-esteem...

    Well, on a technicality, it started a little before that, with that attractive girl that killed herself. Of course, she was the bully where she came from, and this all started because of "Mean Girls" type behavior, when some catty girl lost her boyfriend or something to her... I still think all...

    The Muppets Kitchen with Cat Cora

    I'd wager Polly isn't seen due to Kevin's business with his Sesame Street duties. It's the same reason we don't see much of Clifford or anyone else in Muppet projects past MT... I'd like to see him recast, but I really felt Polly was one of Kevin's best characters. That's really one of the...

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    That's where I got it. And that's because there's not even any info anywhere else. So at best we're getting it on DVD. Next year. At best, if the rumor is true. :rolleyes: I hate to use Wiki as a source, but that's how bad off the movie was under their greedership. I think the...

    Why did this NEED to be made?

    Cars 2 will do well. Little kids LOVE cars anyway, a movie about talking cars going on races? I still remember just before opening weekend, you couldn't find a single Die Cast Mattel toy on shelves for weeks. It's a very wise gamble. besides, a family movie will always win out, unless it's...

    Sesame Street teaches girls about Self-esteem...

    Here's how I take it. The standard stereotype of beauty is basically tallish (but not too tall) bone thin white chick with straight (but not too straight) blond hair. Girls have been killing themselves for that standard of beauty... a waste because no matter how good you look only a handful...

    Why did this NEED to be made?

    Look at How to Train Your Dragon (I have to wait to get the DVD... :mad: ). That film did gangbusters, though the merchandise was all Wal*Mart exclusive. Critics loved it, it's gained a fanbase... it has a wonderful mystic setting. None of them are wondering what an MP3 player is (they...

    Anyone going to see Tangled?

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    Here's the real deal... Weinstine doesn't WANT to make this movie. They don't want to make ANY movies. They want to cling onto whatever money they have left, suck their thumbs and crawl into a corner and cry about how they thought they would be HUGE! The finding a new writer to make the...

    The Videogame Thread

    I actually knew it until you asked, but after just looking up a list of randome game names for Nintendo, I can safely say Gauntlet I actually played that in one of those (overpriced, by the way) Arcade Classics machines a month ago. Now that I think about it, no wonder I couldn't...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    Depends... do you want closet psycho passive aggressive Fern? There's one about her getting upset at Brain (who's seriously turning into the Smurf with the similar name) for crushing her storytelling techniques and planting a hoax about giant worms taking over Elwood City... I forget exactly...

    Why did this NEED to be made?

    I really should mention the 1980's Japanese European co-production Sherlock Hound (the title they had to give to the series to signify the fact the characters are all anthro dogs... he is referred to as Holmes in the actual series). Now, it's not that it lacks comedy, but it also has a serious...

    Underrated TV

    I have very disparaging thoughts about the ABC exec that killed that show, yet put on the atrocious, straight out of the 90's Better with You show. Not only is it pretty much a knockoff of Rules of Engagement, but you have to be desperate to knock off a show like Rules of Engagement. Here's...

    Why did this NEED to be made?

    What absolutely bugs me is the severe lack of anthro style movies in CGI. I mean, full on, human clothes wearing, the world is populated by animals type anthro movies... something in the vein of Talespin or Ducktales or something,... somewhere where there are only animals living like humans...

    The Muppets Kitchen with Cat Cora

    What it comes down for me is I like Angelo because he's played by Tyler. I mean, look at the character he played in BTL, Dr. Nitwhite... a character who thinks he's brilliant and celebrates things prematurely and goes absolutely apescat when he's proven wrong, one time actually chasing his...

    New Muppet Christmas Ornament at the Disney Store

    Burlington. Haven't been able to get to any of the others. Looks like if they had ones that weren't leg or armless in some way, someone bought them (there were only 4 anyway). Of course, I can only imagine the level of delicacy I have to handle them.

    The Muppets Kitchen with Cat Cora

    And yet, we have Miss Mousy! :insatiable: If she didn't look like she stepped out of the 17th century, she wouldn't look that horrible. But I've yet to see a Muppet that looks as ugly as her... and uh... the first season of AM's on Sesame Street. Angelo doesn't come close... but I still...

    Sesame Street Muppet Replicas

    You'd be the only one who would want him. Fans would REALLY want some sort of acknowledgment of Forgetful Jones. He was one of Richard's signature characters and we didn't even get a PVC out of him even when Applause and Tyco were around. I wish there was some way we could get a low cost...

    The Muppet Mindset

    Re-read my post above. Weinstine is stalling for time before they completely give up on the matter. They do NOT want to use whatever money they have left to make any move what so ever, and the stunts they've pulled with Hoodwinked 2 (which actually makes me GLAD the Fraggle film hasn't been...
