    New Muppet CD coming for Christmas

    I'm worried Is anyone else worried how this is going to turn out? I mean, other than Kermit's tunes, Pepe's tune, and the one song with Rizzo and Gonzo, we're looking at an audio recording that could feature new voice actors for every other character. I agree with previous statements that...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets on Extreme Makeover

    *sigh* You know, I seriously worry if the Muppets are going to have a future when a significant number of their fans pick apart every appearance they make because it's not The Muppet Show, or because Steve doesn't sound exactly like Jim or Eric doesnt' sound exactly like Frank (honestly, you...

    Muppet Treasure Island: Special Edition

    As a die hard Muppet Fan, I've been one of those who has harped at the folks at Disney at least once every three months to get a widescreen version of Muppet Treasure Island for Region 1. So far, no dice, but I just fond something very interesting. Either there is a ray of hope on the horizon...

    Henson sells Muppets to Disney

    Well... at least there is one thing to smile about According to one Walt Disney Imagineering insider: "Now we can finally dust off all those plans for all those great attractions and shows that Jim Henson himself had a hand in creating -- 'The Great Muppet Movie Ride,' 'Gonzo's Pandemonium...

    Your Favorite Series 5 Figure is...

    The only one I bought for myself was Janice, since I'm only collecting The Electric Mayhem (I ordered Gonzo for a friend, but haven't seen him yet). I was impressed with many aspects of her, especially the detail in the tamborine, but I was disappointed that, unlike Floyd's bass, her guitar...

    A Muppet should host Dave

    Ok... I know it's a complete shot in the dark, but Dave (David Letterman, for those who were wondering) hasn't announced his guest host for Friday, and I don't know about ther rest of you, but I think it should be a Muppet. I think Kermit:) , Gonzo:concern: , and Pepe:rolleyes: all deserve a...

    Muppet Christmas Carol... Letterbox!?!

    I have checked several sites (DVD Universe, Videoflicks, Yahoo Shopping, etc) that list Muppet Christmas Carol as Widescreen/Letterbox. What has anyone else heard? -S

    Your Thoughts: Kermit's Swamp Years: TV Airings and Opinions

    Wow... rough crowd Contains a couple of VERY mild spoilers Ok... I know a bunch of you were expecting the Muppet Movie, except one better, but i think because you weren't blown away by the overall movie, you missed some of the subtleties. I think it WAS a return to the old style of Muppet...

    The Mouse is Wooing Miss Piggy

    Disney rules... well that is Walt Disney You know what... I'm a die hard Disney fan... not the company, but the man, and what he stood for. Sadly, the company has done almost a complete 180 from that. As much as I believe Disney could funnel tons of money into the Muppet franchise, I also...

    Muppet Treasure Island DVD Reviews

    stand firm Come on gang. If we gripe and moan about the lack of widescreen and then go buy it anyway, we're never going to make the bozos at Disney DVD do it right. However, if we're like the Willy Wonka fans who refused to buy the pan & scan, took it back if they did, there's a good chance...
