Hi,

Really noticing how Jason and the Host seem more interested in chatting about "The Muppets" rather than "Gulliver's Travels". Another example was from last night's Jimmy Fallon. 75% Muppets compared to 25% Gulliver. Now I know Jimmy is a big Muppet fan too but, I am wondering how the Production Company of Gulliver is feeling?

Nice to also hear the praise he gave on how talented the puppeteers are. Nice. The only thing that bothered me is when he kept referring to The Muppets as 'the puppets'.

Did you notice when he said Muppets...the audience cheered? Possibly an indication that people still LOVE the Muppets...all this talk I have heard of ..."will they last?" Bull...you know what...I think they will be around for a long time...and if the puppteers doing them get tired....CALL ME...I will step in! I am a puppeteer with a HUGE imagination with my own group of puppets...I even have an idea for a spoof of Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs,except it will be called Samantha White....starring Selena Gomez and Joan Cusack and a wide cast of characters...including my puppets! LOL!

Honestly, I'm envious of the guy! It's like seeing a visual representation of the "Rainbow Connection" song, living a childhood dream. Can't wait to see this film.
