    Muppet Books Review

    It appears that "I Am Kermit the Frog" and "Meet the Muppets" are adaptations of the movie, but they don't appear to be too detailed or spoilery. "I Am Kermit the Frog" focuses more on Kermit, with the beginning being based a bit on The Muppet Movie (Kermit deciding to leave the swamp to go to...

    Muppet Books Review

    I can't remember if I saw '80s Robot, but I Am Kermit the Frog and Meet the Muppets do have Walter and the Moopets (I don't think it shows the Moopets outside of Kermit reuniting with Fozzie). I didn't notice them in the sticker books.

    The Muppets, The Movie Junior Novel

    Until I saw these pictures, I thought that shot of the gang was in the auditorium. I hadn't noticed 'till now that it's backstage. And it looks like the backstage has an extra floor.

    Muppet Books Review

    I've seen all these books at Books-A-Million today and glanced through them (I only purchased the movie junior novelization), and noticed that hardly any obscure characters besides Uncle Deadley appear in the books; The most obscure ones I spotted are Sweetums and The Newsman. I was hoping...

    What went wrong with Muppets from Space?

    I was recently reading Roger Ebert's 2000 Movie yearbook, which featured his reviews from 1998-1999, and I noticed that he never brought up Pepe, though supposedly every critic who otherwise disliked the film praised Pepe. Also interesting is that he apparently didn't review The Adventures of...

    Dreams about Muppets

    Last night I dreamt that I saw the new movie, but missed the beginning. And in my dream, the Muppets never raise enough money. When Kermit makes his "I beleive in you" speech, he asks "Give me a show of hands. How many of you have caught 23 pianos shot out of a cannon?", to which Gonzo raises...

    Could it be? Sesame Street the Comic?

    With The Muppet Show, I think musical numbers would be more expected, given the variety format (though I'm surprised that The Electric Mayhem and Rowlf didn't get more numbers). It wasn't really neccessary for Fraggle Rock, since they don't put on a show often. For the potential Sesame Street...

    Could it be? Sesame Street the Comic?

    If the rumors are true, I hope they have us fans in mind, like how Boom did for The Muppet Show Comic Book and Achira (I probably spelled that one wrong) did for Fraggle Rock and other Henson properties (though I don't own any of those comics). I can do without musical numbers (which the Muppet...

    SST's YouTube Channel Hacked

    Hopefully Sesame Workshop will start a new YouTube channel. There have been many YouTubers whose accounts were suspended but were apparently able to start new channels regardless (and even if a person couldn't start another channel after getting suspended, I'm sure they could just get another...

    Beaker reminds you to be safe near fire (the hard way)

    This was a funny commercial. I wonder if Dave Goelz actually operated Bunsen here. Something about his movements seem different. I also wonder if Kermit was only here to include one of the main Muppets. I think it could have worked with just Bunsen and Beaker (and they're certainly not obscure...

    Paging Drtooth

    I agree that Regular Show, Gumball, The Looney Tunes Show, and Mad are all good shows, though I don't watch them all the time. I'm a bit surprised that Mad is included in the regualr Cartoon Network line-up as opposed to Adult Swim (If I had to give the magazine a rating I'd give it an R or at...

    "Life's a Happy Song" Lyrics

    Here's a video of rehearsal footage which appears to be most of the closing reprise of the song (I think the beginning might be missing, but we'll have to wait until the soundtrack comes out if not the movie, or unless a sneak peek of that goes online). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyJuK_DINvg

    Which format is better for the Muppet Movie?

    One thing that I've noticed is that of all characters Beaker frequently seems to be a victim of full-frame cropping. Did Muppet Labs do the fullframe work? For example, in The Great Muppet Caper, at the end of the Happiness Hotel song, he's cut from a few shots in full frame. During the...

    "Life's a Happy Song" Lyrics

    I heard the song, and I can't wait to see the visuals. I wonder if all of them are human or if it's a mix of humans and puppets. Many of the voices sound a bit muppet-y, and I thought I heard a voice that sounded like Miss Piggy. Or I wonder if the regular performers provided voices and live...

    "The Muppets" Second Official Movie Trailer

    Watching this, it looks like the Moopets end up replacing Fozzie with a Fozzie look-alike. We never see them at the same time, but it's clear they're both there in the same room in the same scene. I was confused by the ear's deep-voiced "wocka wocka" line. Though I forgot about seeing a...

    Pre-Order The Muppets Original Soundtrack

    By the titles of some of the movie dialogue tracks, I have to wonder why some have to be seperate tracks, since some of them seem like they'd come right before (or after) the next (or last) music number. The Muppet Movie soundtrack had some dialogue from the film between some of the songs, and...

    "The Muppets" Second Official Movie Trailer

    They showed a scene with The Swedish Chef trying to cook him in the kitchen set. I assume that clip would be in the movie.

    Pre-Order The Muppets Original Soundtrack

    Weird Al is the only one of those you mentioned that I do like, and I pretty much hate the rest, though I'm not sure if I should hate Glee. I've only watched a little of it, but then again, I chose to blindly hate the others (when I first heard of Justin Bieber, I decided to listen to one of his...

    The Muppets, The Movie Junior Novel

    Without naming any names, does the book mention any obscure characters by name who don't have any big parts in the movie? It'd be interesting if it did name anyone we wouldn't expect to be mention (and clue in to if they have some role other than being there). By "obscure", I mean none of the...
