    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    I always felt the Ice Age films as decent fun... not really the best out there... I like what Blue Sky does, but they need to get BETTER script people. They seem to make these big big movies with scripts that need to go on 3 more drafts. Ice Age 3 actually felt like it only needed 1 more draft...

    Farewell Farah and Michael

    Exactly... we have the 15 theories on his death (too bad we didn't hear them a while before, or we could've done something) and crazy crap about his personal life. And these are the same exact people that make shallow, untalented, rich twits that should by all logic be shunned (Paris Hilton and...

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    I still think the director was to blame. It wasn't so much that it was trying to be cool or hip so much as the director thought that it had to look extremely mundane, because mundane made it realistic. Even MTI and MCC both made in the same era had an awesome film like scope that was in tact...

    Unofficial Script Review of the New Muppet Movie

    Here's something. We know the progress of the Fraggle Rock movie because Corey Edwards updates his blog frequently with his progress and any info he can give us. We don't know what's going on because these people don't have a production blog. And frankly, Disney has nothing to gain by...

    Farewell Farah and Michael

    Anyone else disgusted that the tabloid celebrity media, who actually tried to be respectful for a week, is still digging up as many crackpot conspiracy theories and hateful dirt as possible? I stand by my hate of the tabloid media... they take good, lovable celebrities and make them hateful...

    Walter Cronkite dead at 92

    Not only have we lost a legend, but his vision seems to be all but dissolved. News corporations owned by rich people who want to influence the country with loud mouth bullies, mindless celebrity worship... and worst of all cutesty wootsy alliterative and or pun names for news stories, each with...

    Muppet Halloween costumes!

    Someone forgot to tell them hoods are for 5 year olds. Man... what ever happened to masks. Everything is so safe and sterile now... no wonder kids grow out of things at obscenely young ages. Unless it's hot. :insatiable:

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    You know... the more I think about it, the only Muppet movies not to be dated in some way or another are MCC and MTI... period pieces, mind you. I guess he's skeptical because of that "Election Special" that was announced a week before it was supposed to air. All and all, I'm glad they...

    Avenue Q Shuts Down!

    Maybe cuz you're not French? :D I really wish more Broadway plays would do that. I'm not a huge fan of musical theater... but could you imagine if they released a DVD of the Producers or Spamalot? These are big big plays that must be experienced by the original cast at least once. I wish...

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    Elmo in Grouchland wasn't made for us. Again, I have nothing but suspicions that it was a commercial, like Transformers (I reiterate, the GOOD one with Eric Idle dancing around to Dare to Be Stupid, not the Michael Bay one)... while the SW people tried to make it more than what it was, seems...

    Non-Muppet MP3 Trade Page

    Anyone have any of those Mickey's Splash Dance songs? I just want the one about Gyro Gearloose.

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    That's clearly the case, but I really don't discount minor muppet's theory. Somehow, Elmo in Grouchland seemed to be treated like Transformers the movie (no... not the Michael Bay one) and Rainbow Bright the movie. A merchandising product/ commercial and not an actual film. While it would...

    Muppet Halloween costumes!

    Actually, the Fozzie one is the only one I like. Something about the Kermit one seems wrong, and I hate where the eye holes are on Gonzo... and Animal is kinda cool, I guess (though they perpetuate the old standard of making his head a fuzzy pink lolipop). The Piggy one is actually sort of...

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    Man... and Sony had a good relationship with Sesame Workshop? Even after that? Seems they made the movie low budget and rushed just so it could be sold as a Christmas present DVD. And they didn't even put it in actual theatrical widescreen either. Makes me wonder, would it have been a much...

    New Disney Muppets Figures Revealed

    There are supposedly new Super Mario ones... but they never got the second wave of the vynals. Just the PVC's. And there are some Sonic toys in TRU. I remember when KB went under, they couldn't give the Guitar Hero toys away. They stood their helplessly with the Sludge Monster from Godzilla...

    Why did MFS and EIG bomb so bad?

    I wonder what was so bad with the other director that he lacked "vision" that they hired someone whose vision was to make everything look as mundane and generic as possible? Honestly, that second director ruined a potentially amazing movie. I still really love the film, but there is so so much...

    "The" Cookie Monster?

    It's what I've been saying for a while. Cookie Monster is the most famous example of not giving a character a real name, and naming it after the sketch he was first in or so... Sort of like Luncheon Counter Monster, Beautiful Day Monster.... and I'm sure there are others. I could picture...

    New Disney Muppets Figures Revealed

    Actually..... Disney is pulling the plug on that one. I've never been big on the franchise, but it does have a very devoted, actually respectable fan base. And they're pretty ticked about it. I wonder what Ban Dai is gonna do. It seems that was the ONLY toy line they got right. Somehow...
