You know it be great to see Mel Brooks direct and write a Muppet Movie...

No Spike Lee - please. His movies are WAY too preachy, and you wouldn't be able to get any Muppet zaniness into the film at all, he'd be too concentrated on attempting to solve racism by having a struggle between races like in Do the Right Thing. The personalities of Henson and Lee really really clash.

Not all of Mel's films are parodies of genres. True, a lot of them are, but The Producers is not and that was one of his best movies.

I would like to see a Muppet History of the World, though... that'd be great!

And I agree - **** political correctness! It's a joke - get over it.

The problem with political jokes being that they often get elected...









Sorry, couldn't resist!

I want muppet movies NOT based on books (MCC and MTI) because that is when the Muppets are at their best...being themselves.

I wonder what would happen if Mel Brooks wrote the original script and then turned it over to the Muppet writers to "Muppet-ize" it?

Could work.

Mel Brooks is a great writer and I think the muppets could really help end his carreer on a high note...

Somehow, that didn't sound to favorable for the old coot...

I was thinking something similar, but didn't want to be the first to say so!

Just like me, tho; typing before I think!!

well I mean I like Dracula Dead and loving it but many people didn't and I wish Mel Brooks goes out big, with a great movie that everyone loves... he deserves it since he made some of the great movies of the 20th century...

"Goes out" like retires or dies? I'd just like for him to get continual hits (for a change). Young Frankenstein and Blazing Saddles are, for me, funny films.
