    Marvin the Martian movie in the works

    I have to say, the idea of Looney Tunes characters as Super Heroes would have been a good idea, had it been satirical. They decided to play it as a straight up action show (and a derrivitive and pathetic one at that), and just thrust the character's personalities into a bunch of lame Action...

    Bolt, from the S*N*O*W*T*H Rant Files

    BOLT.... the movie is called BOLT. And it looks pretty terrible. Like a good idea that went through lots of little bad ideas to become something that clearly will flop... well, until they casted a certain Cash cow doing a "I'll do anything for money that my father will wind up squandering" in...

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    Prime time is a joke now anyway. I mean, yes... we finally got some great stuff like Heroes, Pushing Daisies, the office and My Name is Earl. But we also got 3 CSI's, 3 ripoffs of CSI on the same network CSI airs on. And what the shell is this "Wipeout?" That is the dumbest thing I've ever...

    Marvin the Martian movie in the works

    http://www.variety.com/VR1117989712.html I can't say that the plot doesn't sound cheasy... but this may finally be the decent project that Looney Tunes has been waiting for since BIA flopped and Duck Dodgers was cancelled. Baby Looney Tunes was a clear and obvious knockoff of Muppet Babies...

    I'll post the link somewhere else... the point is, the Muppets don't have it half as bad as the Looney Tunes did after BIA tanked....

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    I agree with everything you said, except Pooh. There's always a way to milk Pooh for all he's worth in tons of crappy merchandise, and the occassion actually good Pooh based movie or Tv special. While a lot of kids today have no respect for anything that much older than they are, there are a...

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    It's not that he doesn't have a couple good points... and only a couple, mind you... but we have to realize one thing. What's hip now and new isn't going to be around forever. Zach and Cody's career will deteriorate faster than a Fozzie Puppet. I can't stand how everyone has to do something...

    AWwww forget this guy. If he doesn't like puppets so much, why the frig does he even post here. And DON'T THINK I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE.....

    Oh no! It was a guy. He just had a childish voice.

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    Sorry, but that's the most rediculous thing I've ever heard. What would you rather be? Mindlessly famous for 2 years, or well remembered and famous for decades? Maybe you should tell this to MC Hammer or Vanilla Ice. They were popular. So wasn't Milli Vanilli... they were even immortalized...

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    Uh... cuz kids are stupid and they love the here and now crap that will be forgotten in 3 years. Once all these kids hit puberty, the ones that can't pull off pretending to be teens (like the HSM bunch) will get their walking papers, and will wind up as extras in an Olvie Garden commercial. I...

    Petition to Bring The Muppet Show to TVLand?

    Once again, Scrubs is owned by Disney. Touchtone, actually, but definately Disney. The ownership of a TV show doesn't equal the ownership of a network. Toon Disney airs a lot of Warner Brothers shows from the 90's. So doesn't Nick. I don't see it happening for a different reason. But...

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    HEAR HEAR! These kids were chosen because they're simply so cute and lovable with no talent what so ever. They did not bust their butt to accomplish anything. They just got lucky. You think Jim Henson just got lucky? no! He went to school, he worked in his spare time putting on a local...

    "Cheeky" Muppet Moments

    I thought you were referring to the speach long John was giving about the Black Spot that they used a page of the bible to make. Anyway, they also said Bloody, which is a cuss word in Britain... but didn't they dub that out or something in the UK?

    Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

    Well, the Muppets did hang with some real talent... John Cleese, Christopher Reeve (who even performed a background character, or at least assisted the puppeteers at one point), Zero Mostel (who probably didn't like being on the show, but you couldn't tell)... but they also worked with a lot of...

    MINDstyle to make 25th Ann. Fraggle figures!

    How many times do I have to say... Mokey WAS going to be made. And she WAS going to happen (as was Traveling Matt). It's the lack of interest on the part of the retailers that stopped her from being made. Same reason we never got Sal Manila.

    Muppet Central "I Love the 80's!"

    You can also buy most of the series now. And at pretty decent prices. But personally, I prefer the comic to all the other forms. I mean, without the comic, there would have been nothing. Plus, you haven't lived until you track down and read the Hedden McWeeney issues. Talk about Cartoony...

    I Love the 90s MC thread

    Finest thing in the world... the Batman TAS episode Christmas with the Joker... the Joker actually sang the Bart Simpson version as he was escaping from Arkham (sp?)

    Fraggle Rock Complete Series Collection coming this fall

    I doubt they'd hold back season 4 and just release it as a part of the complete series. The only thing that concerns me is will this set come with the notebooks and everything? I'd still prefer to get the entire collection (as it technically is cheaper if you get them all together). As for...
