    The usage of Link Hogthrob in the 1980's

    Link, I feel isn't just an underused character, but an underrated one as well. If you look at ANY of the movies, he barely made a presence. He was there, but for one shot here or there in some cases. He was in TMM at the end talking with other pigs (presumably why he didn't really appear in...

    Is there an overrated/underrated Muppet production?

    Well, FTB is something that had a better life on VHS than it did in the theaters... a LOT of movies were like that. Hence why a lot of flop movies become cult favorites. I;m sure Jim would have been happy to know while Dark Crystal and Labyrinth didn't do exactly as well initially as he...

    New Video: Muppets' Popcorn!

    I know it's back and everything... but who exactly are these lame third parties? These are OFFICIAL videos and they have been planned out well in advance. The music rights are PAID for, and every possible detail has been worked out. Small branches of recording studios that didn't get the memo...

    The girls increasing presence on the show

    Well, but that I mean to say Peter and Homer are both stereotypes of what the majority supposedly is. Nice insight... but I was basically using that as a small example of what I mean. That said, Peter is Catholic, and several episodes make references to that. Now his father is the perfect...

    The Return of Futurama: Anyone Else Excited?

    I could mention stuff they snuck into kid's shows so subversive and so adult that I can't even post them. Vulgarity works if it's clever... anything does. Doing something, anything for the sake of doing it isn't funny or clever at all. I've seen hundreds of James Bond parodies over the...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    It seems to be a relaxation of style. It happens. Again, look at the earliest Guy Gilchrist Muppet Comic strip and look at any of the later ones. The look more like Muppet Babies because it's closer to his natural style and it gradually eased and relaxed into that. That said, if you look...

    I've heard reports a lot of people waiting to see National Treasure 2 were confused and annoyed by the AMAZING Goofy short that came before it. hey, I'd be confused and annoyed having to sit through National Treasure 2 to get to a Goofy cartoon short. had I had the money, I would have just...

    Anyone else think that D A is a bit stuck up?

    Uh... Some internet gag we're not hep to yet? Seems like it's a big joke... otherwise I'd be completely embittered by the fact I killed myself on 250+ piece and only have 6000+ views when this guy took something that CLEARLY came with Windows and put it through bad filters. Internet gag... I'm...

    Decline of entertainment?

    I figure I'll give it a chance... maybe wait until the next trailer that actually shows something to not completely look like what I'm seeing in my head... years of watching bad kid's movie trailers gave me a rough idea what to expect. Still... I don't care who plays the Smurfs at this...

    Who else likes these shows?

    I might as well add some I like: Anyone like or watch any of these shows? Jacob Two-Two: Canadian series about the youngest of 5 kids who goes to a miserable school run by a corrupt principal that continuously swindles money from the district... he lives next door to a retired secret...

    Nickelodeon Petition

    Tell you the truth, I hate the 70's a LOT more than the 80's. I actually like most 80's cartoons... especially the 1980's DIC era (Inspector Gadget, Dennis the Menace, Heathcliff, AND Mario? what's not to like there?) It's just a really awkward time when you learn the history. Plus, I object...

    Out of ALL the thing Nickelodeon can make a movie out of, they're making THAT?

    Hmm... I'm sorry... but an old sketch from an old sketch comedy show that the entire cast has grown up and is now 30 or something sounds a LOT better than a Rocket Power or All Growed Up Movie. Mainly because those 2 cartoons were inadvisable pieces of junk. Rocket Power was basically a show...

    New Video: Muppets' Popcorn!

    Indeed. I mean, this would REALLY help give the movie a push in the right direction. problem is, when theatrical shorts come before a movie (unless it's a Pixar film) people get so confused and angry the movie isn't starting they usually ignore them. I wish... really wish we could go back to...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    I have to dig issue 6 up to see if she did... But Wormwood Soams is basically you're standard Sherlock Holmes parody character... says elementary... wears that brown plaid hat and coat... had the same head shape as Sherlock Hemlock, but no nose and a thinner mustache.

    Who else likes these shows?

    Exactly. I'd like to see the season end with Carell's character getting fired (Isn't that how the British one ended? I forget) and the season after to be the last, because without him, the whole place falls apart... they're unable to sell as much as they used to, Sabre dumps them, or goes...

    Decline of entertainment?

    No... Chip and Dale FIGHT. There's tension. If one of the gophers got annoyed with the other and said "SHADDAAAPPP!" and batted him on the head with a mallet... that's funny. But hose are just... dull. Very dull cartoons, and I greatly disliked them. It took a Duck Dodgers episode to make...

    Nickelodeon Petition

    What do you expect from 11 year olds? They all talk like Eric Cartman. And they don't even NEED to watch South Park. That show has the most biting realism in the portrayal of kids I've ever seen. The problem is, we pretty much let "gay" and "retarded" both derogatory terms slip into our...

    Who else likes these shows?

    I like a good number of those. Other than Prison Break (which I hear got terrible after the second season and was mutually canceled) and both Lost and 24 (which I never got into). Heroes is probably for the worms now. This is why I'm suspicious of shows that are popular from the start...
