I wonder what would happen if Frank Oz was able to take out time to write a screenplay, direct the film, and perform in it?

Hey Fozzie-

In Ken Plume's Frank Oz interview, Frank mentions that he has an original idea for a new Muppet movie.

He says, "That's why I want to do the next Muppet movie, because I'm excited about a particular idea, and the idea is something that Jim and Jerry Juhl and I thought of 15 years ago."

I'm not sure if "do" means direct, produce, or what (probably direct), but it was also two years ago, so Frank may feel differently now.

I think it was rumored that the film would be "Cheapest Muppet Movie Ever Made."

I think "The Cheapest Muppet Movie Ever Made" sounds like a very cool movie! One thing that I didn't like about KSY was that Gonzo and Piggy and Fozzie weren't in it. I mean, I know it's supposed to be Kermit's movie, but It would be so cute to see baby versions of them all. Like in The Muppets Take Manhatten. Oh well........

Okay, Scott...Here's the deal...you tell us the plot if the movie isn't made...okay?

no serious offence dr tooth, just some playful ribbing, but why am I not surprised that the same guy who thinks a disney buyout is a good idea thinks that a toy story 3 is a good idea. why do movies have to have sequels. unless they're top notch I say let the originals be classics instead of making them stale.

some of the straight to video bs has tainted my love of the original films. I just can't get the "two bad the had to ruin it with (place title here) ...." kinds of frases out of my head with things like peter pan, lion king, aladin, and the list goes on. I'm just waiting for Dopey to get his own adventure. Yuck

Honestly, I don't think the genius behind "Cinderella 2" would do Toy Story 3. They are differnt companies. I felt Toy Story 2 was better than the first (something rare, I never like sequals more). Alladin 3 was pretty good, but only because of Robin Williams. As for the cartoon series, I hated Tarzan, and such, but I liked Timon and Pumbaa, and Buzz Lightyear (I am such a Stooge), plus I am both Psyched and worried that the Lilo and Stitch moivie will be a cartoon (allong with Emperor's new Groove, my two fav Dizzy Flicks)

But I am not saying that Disney buying them is the best thing that will happen to them. I mean, there will be amusment park stuff. I prefer them buying Disney compaired to lets say, Viacom or Saban!

How the heck do you know it's a horrible script ? I take it you haven't seen it, and i don't think a full plot summary was ever released, just a few basic rumors.

Yer, yer. The Muppets turn into Gosts. Great Story line!!!

NOT.

I would be ashamed to be a Muppet fna.
