    80's and 90's RULE!

    You know, I was going to mention this in "decline of Entertainment" but I might as well say it here. Oh, SURE we remember Back to the Future and Indiana Jones and ET and all that when it comes to 80's movies... but there was a LOT of garbage in that era as well. The difference? We just...

    New Henson GSN show: Late Night Liars

    I saw the clip and I have to admit, I like what they're TRYING to do, not so much how they're doing it. It has the potential to be a clever satire of the old school Match Game and Hollywood Squares celeb panel shows, with obvious parodies of Joan Rivers and Paul Lynde to boot. Seems that adult...

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    I'm to the point where I'm gonna say, we shouldn't even get worked up. This movie is hanging by a quantum singularity now. And if any side is serious of making this thing, they have to actually sit down, discuss what they can't and can't do, discuss what the heck is wrong with the script...

    Amanda Bynes is "retired" from acting at 24.

    I'd hate to think this on the part of Betty, but it really seemed she was turning into an internet meme (i.e. "SnooPING AS usual I see" "It's OVER 9000!") and that could have been why she became so popular in recent months. I really hope that isn't the case. I've always felt she was a...

    Toy Story 3

    I can't lie. I enjoyed Cars, but I agree... it was my least favorite of all their movies. It almost seemed a little Dreamworks-y. The only reason they're planning on making a second one is because the first one made sooooooo much money on merchandising alone. For a few weeks after it...

    Decline of entertainment?

    I spent the betterment of this thread complaining about that, and It doesn't matter. Sony is run by idiots, and their crap CGI movies show it. It goes without saying, they just want to make another Chipmunks movie, but someone else has the license. And this script was written by the same...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    Or... they could have easily been in some Podunk town where they were the only theater around anyway. It's one of those places that are supposed to be ambiguous. Could be anywhere, actually. Maybe a dead end town in a bigger state, maybe in a big city's low income district, maybe somewhere...

    If they were to make a new Muppet Babies....

    You realize of course, that if they DID make a new series, crossovers would be completely out of the question. Maybe a Bear crossover... but you know the state of the Muppets being split up against 3 different owners, right? We're probably not going to get any cameos in The Greatest Muppet...

    Pretzel M&M's

    Okay. Since we're talking about limited time only flavored whatevers, anyone like Airheads? I usually manage to pick up a package of the stuff when they have a cartoon or movie licensee. I LOVED most of those flavors, especially any fruit punch ones. Loved Chipmunk Cola. However, I'm...

    Decline of entertainment?

    And to the surprise of no one, I'm gonna say the trailer for Cats and Dogs 2 was painful to watch. I mean, reference to Hamster Dance? Jeez! Got any Monica Lewinski/Bill Clinton jokes you wanna get in there too? Any Y2K bug gags? Enron references maybe? I will also say that Tangled...

    Is there an overrated/underrated Muppet production?

    You want highly underrated? The View-master VHS game machine video "You're the Director." That was completely underrated, considering it was only available on a video game engine that could never take off and that people rarely had. Not the best thing out there, and it's only available for...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    Though, I thought they abandoned the concept of the oil tycoon altogether as well. All the news we've gotten was from an old draft, and frankly we don't know what's up until this thing gets to theaters. But as far as we know, they're going with that original concept. Seriously... I swear...

    Amanda Bynes is "retired" from acting at 24.

    There's such a huge stigmata to being a child star. There are those who are very lucky, and continue to find work like Shea LeBeouf (sp?) and Ron Howard (look at how big his career became), some that are pretty lucky, and after years of nothing find a role that makes their popularity explode...

    Will Frank Oz be in Monsters Inc. 2?

    There's a difference. With the Muppets (Sesame Street included), Frank would have to find time in his busy schedule to find a time when everyone else is available to perform, go down to whatever city they're shooting in, being New York or California or even somewhere else. Where as with this...

    Amanda Bynes is "retired" from acting at 24.

    Never really cared all that much for her... I RULLY hated that WB sitcom of hers... but it seems to me she's upset she gets attatched to crappy projects that don't do well, and somehow quitting because she isn't as successful as she wants to be. Feh! That guy that plays Dwight in The Office...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    Wasn't the original concept that the Muppets save a theater, not so much their theater? Cali's probably the only real place to film the thing, and the main reason they can't get Grodin. Congratulations! You found one of the two missing words of how I describe it. personally, I'd...

    Toy Story 3

    I spent an entire bus ride trying desperately not to cry. That's the kind of emotional thrill ride this film was. And a very organic one too. Only Pixar can do something that organic and pure. I agree with Michael Scott. Pixar really makes me lose it some times. Now, i could gush about...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    I could really say what i want to say about Twilight, considering the writer and her background (the term repressed fantasies is all I'm gonna say), I just don't like this whole vampires = vapid pretty boys with even more vapid girls. Not so much Twilight, but it's the industry wide standard...

    Pretzel M&M's

    I thought they just changed it to fruit shaped pieces. Thankfully they changed it back to the classic round corn balls shape. At least, recently. But the formula tinkering was due in part to 2 things. The increased call for whole grain, which temporarily switched the neutral corn flavor to...

    Toy Story 3

    Way I see it, they priced themselves out of the business moviewise and charge way too much to sit in a poorly maintained theater for a half hour of TV commercials to see movies they rush off to DVD anyway so they can sucker people into buying a Blu Ray edition with 80 hours of all the unfunny...
