    Shrek Goes Fourth Announced for 2010

    The buzz is that the one released last year would be the LAST LBT sequal. They have a cartoon series to focus on. That is, if the cartoon series is still in production. That said, why in heck did they take so long to make a cartoon series for them? People will watch a cartoon series. They...

    50 greatest shows of all time

    This thread is from about six years ago. Would you believe I still can't get over the fact they put "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" on there. I gotta be the only one in the universe that doesn't like that show. No thank you.

    Muppet Morsels

    Morsels were discontinued after the first set due to a change up of the producers (or something) of the DVD. Which was also one of the reasons why TMS S2 was delayed a year.

    Remakes?

    A third movie won't happen, because Bill Murray doesn't want to do it. They keep trying to make the CGI animated sequal, but they just haven't gotten anywhere with it.

    New movies coming out...

    Live action Jetsons... they've been barking up that tree since 1996. It's NEVER going to happen. Never.

    The Chipmunks' Triumphant Return

    Spiderwick came out a couple weeks ago, and I feel the mass audience felt that Waterhorse was too pretentious a film. I still am amazed that it was playing in March when it was released in December. It's coming to DVD in amonth from now. And it wasn't even in the cheap theaters. This was a...

    How thin is acceptable?

    What bugs me is that they actually DO limit junk food commercials on Kid's TV, and kid's tv has suffered greatly. It's now virtually impossible to make a profit off of such, and there are less and less markets for animation. Leaving animators in the dust. And it's not going to make kids one...

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    Can someone send me the album "Put Down the Duckie"?

    How thin is acceptable?

    You'd think so. But in the long run, what keeps everyone down is the cost. To me, Fast Food is the same paradox as WalMart.... You have little money, so you have to shop there, but the reason why there's little money is because there's no jobs, because no one can afford to shop anywhere but...

    Muppet Babies: Puppets vs. Cartoon

    Yes, but things were really different then. Warner Bros and studios like that dealt with 7 minute cartoons theatrically released. They did not have the same weekly deadlines, and they didn't have to make about 13- 60 episodes per year. Television animation wasn't even a possibility until the...

    Remakes?

    While I'm not a fan of these movies, I don't see why a remake is necesarry at all for Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th. Those are pretty sequal heavy franchises. A remake would be redundant. And no one will want to see it, except out of curiosity. I don't see why they don't pull a...

    Your Thoughts: The Star Wars Muppet Figures

    It'd be a great idea to actually do these and get them out there. Star Wars satires have become rediculously popular lately. A Spaceballs cartoon (which hopefully was only delayed by the strike), Robot Chicken, Family Guy, and Funimation Dubbing the Crayon Shin-Chan parody for Adult Swim...

    How thin is acceptable?

    But that's not really a good solution either. Seems like another thing that punnishes poor and unhealthy people for being poor and unhealthy. The only way there's gonna be any change is on the level of the rich. I mean, we can villify the fast food industry a hundred times, but that's not...

    Mom, an alligator's in my room!

    Off the top of my head, the kid is nervous at the beginning to go to bed, the mother walks in, shuts off the light, and Sparky the dog's shadow turns into an alligator. it starts singing "Imagine me an Alligator (Alligator)" The boy screams, the mother enters the room and says, "I don't see...

    How thin is acceptable?

    Actually, we got the reverse effect of that. Remember, in the olden days we didn't have processed foods or mass corparate farms that specialize in making only cheaper products. I look at what they serve at higher end places, and the plates are bigger than the food. And by quite a bit, too...

    Shrek Goes Fourth Announced for 2010

    I found the third one to be mildly enjoyable. But I also found it to be a cut off point. Movie trillogies are always weakest at the third film. Back to the Future, Star Wars (original saga 4-6), Ninja Turtles... the third in each one is least liked by fans (though a turn around would be the...

    Would you Live In Toon Town

    If I were a toon, I'd kill to live there. I wish such a thing were possible. Funny thing, though. Toon Town was written to represent ethnic ghettos. And the fact that they're even called "toons" is a throwback to ethnic slurrs being acceptable at the time. The movie Roger Rabbit goes...

    Shrek Goes Fourth Announced for 2010

    I can understand 5, sure... but 8? You kidding me? The third one was bland and repetitive enough. Even the Christmas special was better than that. How many times can they milk the "Shrek acts cold and distant because he's hurting inside" angle? And if the third one is any indication, most...
