I didnt even no LOTR came out, though I think Im the only one on the planet who is more excited by the idea of a Meet The Feebles special edition. Hmm, from $10,000 x rated puppet films to $300 million bloated budget epic medieval films, that Peter Jackson sure is quite the evolutionary director.

Ohhh, OOhhhh, what's in this special edition?

Here's the "Featured Creature" entry.
Behind the scenes.

Waldo is the first computer generated (CG) Muppet. Typical of Jim Henson's innovation, Waldo C. Graphic is the first CG character that we are aware of who was performed in real time.

I thought the film was banned in the U.S. if not maybe it should!

My brief research into the matter sugguests that Waldo was the first, but there has been some evidence to suggest that Labyrinth had some interesting innovations in the use of computer technology, including possibly a primative version of what would become HPCS.

Hope that Helps.
