Hey folks,

The weekend of April 20th the Brattle theater in Harvard square is having Muppet Madness! They will be showing a bunch of Muppet/Henson movies including a triple feature of the muppet movie, the great muppet caper and muppets take manhatten.

Here's a link to all the details:

Hope to see some of you there.

I'd love to go to one of those, but I can't make up my mind of which one I want to see... the Triple Bill of all three movies? The New Movie on a double bill with Being Elmo? The Labyrinth/Dark Crystal showing? I'm sure I wouldn't be able to get all 3 of them...

Yeah deciding which showing to go to is tough. I'm leaning toward the triple feature as I haven't seen the great muppet caper in twenty years. I'm thinking about bringing my Kermit replica with me! I'd love to see the dark crystal/labyrinth double feature but I have to work that day.

Agreed, there's just something extra special about seeing the originals on the big screen. :smile:

It'd be cool to see Being Elmo in a theatre, but I've been watching it a lot on Netflix lately. I'd only attend that screening to share in the audience reaction; I wonder who else would cry during the making time for my daughter, Make a Wish, friendship with Jim, and other emotional segments? :wink:

I think I should mention that the Brattle is a small independant theater. As in a proper theater (think the muppet theater) that has a screen on the stage. Not a big huge multiplex cinema with the giant screen or that kind of atmosphere. It's actually a pretty cool place! I saw a showing of ghostbusters there a while back and someone in line was handing out marshmallows and spoons of fluff. there is usually a great crowd.

Sounds like an amazing place! I want to go there even more!
