    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    I don't think I got them. Did you send them off?

    What, no Traffic?

    There are a few instances of traffic in the street. i think there were some cars in the movie, but then again, there's the other side of the street in the movie. In one of the earlier episodes (It's on old School volume 1, I forget which episode, though) Big Bird almost gets smacked by a...

    Well, there are several differences. I saw the segment recently in a rerun. Much of the dialogue was altered to be about frustraition instead of anger, and even her last line was changed. Instead of saying "I guess things aren't quite so bad," it was changed to "Nevermind." The Brother's...

    In Development: Henson's Fraggle Rock Movie

    Sony would seem like a good fit, but I'm still warey of how they handled MFS. But out of the other studios, they seem like the best choice. And Mickey does share the shelf with movie characters from time to time. A limited time, sure, and it depends on the success of the film. If it...

    Muppet Babies opening sequence question

    And the best part of that? They have a live action clip of Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem watching the show and bouncing to the beat of the theme song. I just love that. Actually, it's more like, "they're down in the basement putting on shows." But otherwise you're correct.

    The Subway

    Same thing with Boston and the T... except most of the time, they have to bus people from station to station so they can do "repairs" that they never seem to finish or do at all. I'd trade it for ANYTHING in the world.

    Sesame Street Old School DVD's: Not For Kids

    First off, it was a woman. Just thought you'd want to know. Secondly, rereading the passage in question: Wow... Fozzie, bow to that.:o that is a truely terrible attempt at humor. Some of this sounds like just the lame attempts at being a comedian of a columnest. But a lot of that...

    Changes that you actually liked

    We do have a lot of posts about the changes in SS that people hated. But we never have anything on more positive changes. There has to be some things that changed that others have liked, so this would be the place to discuss them. As far as I go, here are my favorites in no particular order...

    The Subway

    I believe you're over thinking it, my friend. It was a segment to teach what a subway was, and the bad points were clearly just jokes, fairly apt ones at that. I couldn't think of them doing a song like that straight without making jokes about the Subway. But then again, it could go to...

    Notes: The animated clip of the little girl being frustraited was redubbed with different dialogue. The Celebrity word on the street (a redundant thing, considering they already used one with Ray Romano) featured Kelly Rippa. The last montage of the cat and the 2 kids seems to be from a...

    Sesame Street Old School DVD's: Not For Kids

    I've said a million times. Right problem, wrong solution. That's like banning fast food places because they target the poor (which indeed somewhere in California is doing), and not trying to help raise the minimum wage or establish a cheap source of fresh foods so families don't have to resort...

    Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium

    As far as Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate factory goes, I am kinda glad that they didn't have any call backs to the previous film. The only place call backs belong in is a remake of something (i.e. hiring a cast member of the original to have a cameo, having an at the moment musician...

    Follow that Bird vs. The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland

    For the hundredth time.... Apparently someone at Sony wanted the movie to be strictly for little kids, and threw away a lot of what Jerry juhl wrote in the script, including an alternate Ending that would have implied that Gonzo really wasn't an alien after all.

    CGI Overusage?

    Indeed. this is a relitively new thing. Reletively. It has been around since earlier than we think, and it really became what we know today in the 80's. Soon it will look flawless. But I still want my cartoons to look like cartoons, no matter the medium. If you can draw, render, sculpt...

    Follow that Bird vs. The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland

    Well, that's the only true problem with it. it's still an enjoyable film, but it just isn't a classic like FTB for those reason. I feel at least it gave us a chance to see Elmo explore his character and not just be ...well...what he is in EW. EIG was one of the first of many Elmo-centric...

    Sesame Street Old School DVD's: Not For Kids

    Yeah. But then again, Jim did help to shape a lot of the things on it. I mean, I recall hearing that J.G.C. didn't particularly like the Baker falling dowwn the stairs with cakes bit that much, but Jim pulled for it. So it's a bit of both worlds. Though, honestly, SS wouldn't have been the...

    CGI Overusage?

    Well, considering it was motion capture, it was pretty much a medium that hasn't been tapped to often. However, I do NOT like my CGI looking realistic in that aspect. look at Ratatoullie or the Incredibles. They over come the handy cap of CGI humans looking akward by stylizing them enough to...
