    2011 Winnie the Pooh Movie

    No one is a bigger critic of how Disney's 90's-00's Pooh focus was than me. I loved Pooh, and then gradually started to hate the character and the franchise because it was the ONLY thing Disney seemed to have. You know things are bad when you own Mickey Mouse (perhaps the most famous cartoon...

    Questions About The Toy Industry

    My Goodwills stopped carrying toys ALLtogether. They only have books in the kid's section. Some idiotic thing about the new regulations, I'm guessing. Anyway the pseudo "liberal" attitude towards fast food (because it's the new cigarette company we can paint as evil all the while being...

    We Have a Picture of Walter AND MORE NEWS!

    I'm sure Muppet Studios goaded them into using Pepe to some extent. It would be a shame if he wasn't in it at all, especially since... let's face it... he pretty much saved the Muppet movies he was in. But on the PLUS side, even if he's not featured that much, we're pretty much guaranteed...

    Is there Muppet continuity/canon?

    Animal did. I wonder if there was a typo in my post or something... but you know... the whole "MAMA! MAMA!" thing coming from Animal. Plus, I always loved that book, so I'd love to see Laverne retconned into the Muppets. I always liked her design... She'd look WONDERFUL as an actual Muppet...

    Cameron Diaz Offered Role in HappyTime Murders

    I hear that. As long as it's clever, ANYTHING no matter how shocking, horrific, or disgusting can be funny. But it has to be CLEVER, or it's a 7 year old that finally found the word "boobies" and snickers and chortles about it and says it over and over because he thinks it's funny. A cow in a...

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    Weinstine doesn't want to make movies at all anymore. That's the bottom line. They're holding production of everything until they just run out of money, and frankly, I HOPE THEY DO SOON. We're likely to never see this movie ever ever, and Henson spent so much time hyping it up too. At this...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    More than ONE classic sketch as a bonus feature? THANK YOU UNCLE SCROOGE! Kidding.... kidding. Naw, THIS is what I've been looking for. Listing one sketch as a bonus is almost an insult. But this, I'd buy for the special features alone, even if they are already on DVD. I hope we get some...

    Cookie Monster Eats Rocks

    Does that character have a name? This is the second time I've seen that specific AM giving lectures. Clearly came out of a time where they were trying not to use Kermit. Why Herbert Birdsfoot wasn't used is the biggest mystery. Perhaps this is just before he debuted?

    Speculation: Celebrities Considered for the New Muppet Movie!

    Anyone who wears a coat of Kermit dolls HAS to be in the Muppet movie. I bet that stunt alone got them to get her to do a cameo. I understand the hating something that's popular because it's popular. A lot of BAD and detrimental things become popular (Survivor, Jersey Shore... well, you...

    We Have a Picture of Walter AND MORE NEWS!

    The next Winnie the Pooh movie will be just called Winnie the Pooh. Yeah... I DON'T LIKE IT! You know, maybe it needs a satirical title, mocking the old films that have sequel after sequel after sequel..."The Revenge of the Muppet Movie" has a fun ring to it.

    Questions About The Toy Industry

    Neca bugs me... they only do ONE series of action figures a year. Had they not pulled that crap, we would have gotten more than the four Ninja Turtles. They were SUPPOSED to do April, Shredder (with an Utom confusing non comic fans that it's Krang), and several foot soldiers... we never got...

    It'll probably pop up on their website or their youtube account.

    2011 Winnie the Pooh Movie

    Here's the trailer You know, I do like Pooh and company... I never was crazy about the character over-saturation in the 90's-00's... but a GOOD Pooh project is too hard to pass up. And it's all traditional styled animation too. Good to see them back to their routes instead of that lame CGI...

    Questions About The Toy Industry

    Here's the problem. Yuppie parental groups that whine and whine and either force Happy Meal toys to be banned or to liken ANY characters they market as said toys to Joe Camel. And a lot of these companies refuse the bad press. So Pixar refuses to do ANY of their movies now... not even Toy...

    Late Night Buffet clip!

    It's really disappointing this thing never took off. it's a LOT funnier than what I've seen of Late Night Liars for one thing. Even if they'd just make these sort of short skits and release them as Youtube exclusives that would be something. I think that's what Henson really needs to start...

    Is there Muppet continuity/canon?

    Didn't work for Q*bert. :D Anyway, about Muppet Babies... I like the show, but there is one thing that started bothering me lately. So, like... did they live there? They never mentioned their parents. I get the feeling they were abandoned... and somehow that doesn't sit all that well with...

    We Have a Picture of Walter AND MORE NEWS!

    I think Prince of Persia was a May or June film. I clearly remember it being before July. But really, used to be June and July were the busiest months for movies... now they like move everything to April. Though, I'm sure they were expecting a LOT of 1990's gamers to actually REMEMBER Prince...

    Questions About The Toy Industry

    That one really ticks me off. The worst part is that those are one of those things they kept jacking up prices, it hurts the industry, leading them to jack them up even higher prices to make up for what they lost raising the prices the first time. I remember when the TMNT movie line was out...

    Speculation: Celebrities Considered for the New Muppet Movie!

    Can't believe we're also getting Office guys too. Especially Ed Helms. Man... sure, these aren't the most timeless people ever, but they fit in perfectly with the style they're going for.

    Well?

    The problem with the "Come back" aspect is that every single year they've owned the characters was that, other than the initial buy out every year they announced the NEXT year would be year of the big comeback. Season 4 should have came out in 2009, but was supposed to be released THIS year...
