    New Book: "Memoirs of a Muppets Writer" by Joseph A. Bailey

    In a perfect world, anyone who ever worked for the Muppets would write a book like this - a little bit of history on how they got there, then a series of great stories of what went on there.

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Most Wanted on Blu-ray and DVD

    Some would argue that #1 is good; Piggy doesn't need to always be a loud, rowdy diva. #2 confuses me as well. Technically speaking, all the other movies have been movies where the Muppets are playing characters essentially. This movie and the last are technically the first to take place in the...

    Your Thoughts: "Jim Henson: The Biography" by Brian Jay Jones

    I'm sure this was asked somewhere else before, but how much access to the Henson production archive were you given? Was it through Craig Shemin?

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Most Wanted on Blu-ray and DVD

    DisneyMoviesAnywhere (you need an access code for it). I just watched the extended version. Man, that was long. But there was a lot of neat stuff that should've been in the movie. Some of it deserved to be cut though (like the instrumental during "We're Doing a Sequel". Geez, why'd they even...

    the Frog-E-Oke is really pitiful, so you're not missing much there.

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Most Wanted on Blu-ray and DVD

    My copy came today and I haven't watched the extended version yet, but a darn fine movie.

    Your Thoughts: "Jim Henson: The Biography" by Brian Jay Jones

    Hmmm. Let's settle this the smart way, but asking a question only he would know.... What's your name?

    Perhaps you're hearing the demo version Bret did?

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Most Wanted on Blu-ray and DVD

    Well, right not, the movie is #1 on Amazon's Best Sellers for Kids and Families. Money for Muppets!

    Abby's Flying Fairy School

    Times have changed. Back then, there wasn't much for kids and commercials were apparently big with them. That's probably not the case these days. Murray and his lamb are still on the show, and those bits are very good in terms of puppetry. Not only do they have the Muppets out in the real...

    So It's Come to This: A Clip Show Thread

    The writers for the Simpsons hated doing clip shows, but were forced to. They tried to make them as entertaining as possible. Yes, the second one did have new footage (though some was repurposed from older episodes, and from earlier in the same episode). The one for the Critic is especially...

    Pre-Order "Muppets Most Wanted" Blu-ray available August 12

    I try. I wish I could've ordered somewhere else other than Amazon, but I got a lot of money from a textbook I sold back to them, so I could buy the DVD from there; I can't really afford to try elsewhere. That's why I've been really mad about this; it's either I buy it through Amazon, or I wait...

    Pre-Order "Muppets Most Wanted" Blu-ray available August 12

    I stand by my argument that the film underperformed because movie tickets are too cheap.

    He was referring to bonus features, not the whole Amazon kerfuffle.
