    Any idea how to get either the extended DVD or the fan-edit?

    Extended version of The Muppet Movie

    Thanks, I may have to check out the 35 year blu ray. I was hoping that UK print was on DVD somewhere, but I guess not. Maybe someday. I definitely don't have a PAL VHS player, so even if I could find that, I wouldn't be able to watch it.

    Extended version of The Muppet Movie

    I know there's a UK version of this movie with some extended scenes. Is it available for purchase anywhere out there? I've seen some of the clips on YouTube, but I'd love to be able to watch the movie straight through with them included. It seems like the only version I see out there is the...

    The Muppets Take Manhattan will be playing at the Linden Amphitheatre in Linden, NJ, on Thursday, 6/26/08. The start time is listed as sundown (vague, I know). It's an outdoor theater, and there is no charge. http://www.linden-nj.org/recreation/raymond_wood_bauer_promenade.htm

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    I don't actually have any Muppet MP3s to trade, but if someone could get me "Saying Goodbye" from TMTM it would really be appreciated. dpurves@iwon.com

    Truth commercial: Muppets & smoking

    I have watched The Muppet Movie more times than I can count, and I've never considered it to be a "smoking" movie. Like so many others, apparently, I had to really think about where all this horrible smoking was. I saw this movie for the first time when I was the young, impressionable age of...

    Muppet Movie Rights Questions

    I'd been wondering why Muppets Take Manhattan occasionally appears on cable channels like Showtime, while TMM and TGMC never do. It would be nice if Disney would show those first films once in a while...

    http://www.capa.com/columbus/events/event.php?e=407 The Muppet Movie will be playing this Saturday at 10 am in Ohio. I seem to remember they screened this movie last summer as well.

    Muppets Take Manhattan Playing in NYC

    Boy, I have to say this is really tempting. If it was TMM playing, I have no doubt that I'd somehow find a way to get there. Still, with a midnight showing I probably wouldn't be getting home until about 2:30-3:00 in the morning, and that is what's talking me out of doing this.

    Muppet Replicas on Ebay

    Well, I think it's also to make it more difficult to track this person down. My first inclination was to search for "Muppets" on eBay, and obviously that wouldn't have worked, so this person probably wanted to make himself as inconspicuous as possible. I wonder if he used the word "Muppets" in...

    Muppet Replicas on Ebay

    I like the way he/she very carefully avoids the use of the word Muppet, or any of the character names, even though virtually anyone could easily identify them as such.

    Muppet Replicas on Ebay

    It looks like you're not the only one who finds this unlawful, as it appears that all of the auctions have been removed.

    something happend to me tonight..

    It's definitely not you. The Muppets are both a source of great happiness and sadness for me these days. I still frequently watch the older movies and love them, but it's always bittersweet as I can't help but think that the Muppets will almost certainly never be as they once were. And it's...

    Muppet Movies at the Dryden Theater in Rochester, NY

    Boy, I really wish I'd been on the forum a couple of days ago. I've been wanting to see TMM again on the big screen for a long time, and it looks like I missed it again.:cry:

    First Muppet movie you saw in the theater?

    I was lucky enough to see The Muppet Movie in its first release way back in 1979. I saw it several times the summer before I started 3rd grade, then remember having to wait a couple of years before it finally came to network TV so I could watch it again.

    What's happening to Dr. Teeth and company?

    I think that the powers that be have done their best to update the Muppets to make them fit in better with today's times...and it just hasn't worked. I say leave the Electric Mayhem alone, find new voices for them, and actually come up with something to do with them. Someone mentioned in...

    Muppet Movie question

    Just out of curiosity, does anyone know the year and, if applicable, the model of Doc Hopper's Cadillac from TMM?

    Two collared kermit

    Boy, I didn't remember the double collar at all until this thread, so I checked him out on Youtube. It was actually a little distracting to see it like that, and I agree that a single collar gives him a much cleaner look.

    Muppet Research Project

    What, am I the oldest person on this forum? I'm a 35 year old library director from New Jersey. I'm single with no kids. The Muppets have been a part of my life as far back as I can remember. I grew up with Sesame Street. In fact, I can remember at least once I played sick just so I could...

    "The Muppet Movie" playing at Palace Theatre in Cleveland, OH

    Well, it hasn't happened yet. It's happening this weekend. I'd still love to go, but I just don't see it happening. If it was somewhere that wasn't a fifteen hour drive each way I'd be there in a second.
