so elaborating on my previous question: did any of you lucky people see anyone using a video camera or non-flash still camera unmolested?
i understand why they'd not want flash pictures, but don't want to drive up there and find out i could have taken the mini-dv and used available light.
thank you.
so far, the only mention i can find in other online searches is that no "flash or tripod photography" is permitted. doesn't say anything about non-flash or video.
would still appreciate hearing from anyone who can add more details.
just saw a youtube video segment from a norman lear produced tv special called "i love liberty" featuring the muppets. the skit was introduced by big bird but had the original muppet cast re-enacting the creation of the declaration of independence.
how in the world have i never heard of...
jim might have heard it on the radio. i remember playing the song on a capitol records 45 during my first radio job, which would have been late 60s.
i think i still have that disc...no one wanted it after a few plays, so i took it home. it was by no one i've ever heard of before or since...
this was posted today on the digital bits website, along with a photo of the box cover:
"The big DVD news today is that Disney has officially announced the DVD release of The Muppet Show: Season One for 8/9. The long-awaited 4-disc set will include all 24 first season episodes, along with Jim...
by all means, write letters and petitions if that will help you feel better.
in reality, the only thing we can do that will matter now is to vote with our wallets.
support the things you can believe in:
quality re-issues of classic material (un-edited, mind you)
muppet 3D in the...
it depends on what they need the character to do.
while i don't pretend to work in the workshop, i remember that on elmo's grouchland movie, there was one basic "hero" version kevin used mostly. there were others with bendable wire skeletons for posable shots, one radio controlled version...
from a "so-called" fan
if refusing to open the hymnal and sing "praise eisner" without question is enough to get me labeled a "so-called fan", i have just one retort.......and i can't use it here.
know your target better before you shoot off your big mouth. that's only funny when a muppet...
the animosity...or is it "animal-mouse-ity"?...toward the idea of a disney-muppet co-venture is not completely unfounded.
anybody remember all the same kind of b.s. being spouted by brian and mr. bob iger when abc was all set to enter this wonderful creative partnership with the jim henson...
semantics
meaning in no way to besmirch your love for the muppets and all things henson....but what makes you think there's going to be any more jim henson company logos on ANYTHING?
from now on, it's "DISNEY's Muppets".
gnarkflap!
i can just see next month's big disney press release: "eisner declares traditional puppeteering dead. all future muppet projects will be computer animated."
not happy...but then with a name like grouchman, what'd ya expect??????
many thanks, folks.
i'll look again and give it a try!
and i certainly understand the lack of space issue. at least i can hang the miniature swinetrek from the ceiling!
...or anyone else who knows the proper way to use those two spear-like accessories i thought went with the robot in the stragepork figure package. they look like antennae, but i couldn't find anywhere they'd fit.
i'd like to put them in place before link hurts himself on one.
thanks.
it's very good. and it also contains more than a few elements that would show up in the "toy story"universe sometime later. ...a under-rated gem, too rarely broadcast.
hmmmm...i don't even remember getting a record when i joined. i have the button up on my studio wall, and i'm sure the paper items are filed away. but what was on this mysterious blue record?
(maybe cookie monster ate mine.)
me too. i gave up early trying to find any local retail sources for either storyteller or the ed sullivan collection (although i might have given up too soon), and ordered them online. haven't gotten them yet, but i am also dismayed to hear they've tried to cram nine half-hours on one side of...
kermit finally showed up at one of the four targets in my area, along with link, the good doctor, and rizzo. there was only one, and i wouldn't have snagged that if a friend hadn't tipped me off.
at least the target employee at one of the other stores knew what i was talking about when i...
maybe it's not the best "business" decision, but this has got to be the best muppet news i've heard in a long long time.
while jim henson was one of a rare few creative people who also posessed business savvy, his work shows he cared about the creative side first.
and maybe during the...
time life made me grouchier
okay, maybe someone else can profit from this.
like a good little support-grouch, when i found out i could get volumes 11-15 of time-life's muppet show, i hurried on over to the website and plunked down my credit card. i even got a little extra discount (off this...
