I was just wondering if anybody could please further explain in detail this to me? Which scenes? Where abouts? etc.

Thanks:smile:


*Official Announcement* – Randal Kleiser to helm "Muppets From Space" from a script by Jerry Juhl. Shooting begins in September for a July 1999 release.
Hello Muppet Fans,
The wait for official news on the next Muppet Film is over. Here it
is:
RANDAL KLEISER MAD FOR MUPPETS.
Getting seven figures to helm new outing.
Director Randal Kleiser, who helmed the recently re-released "Grease,"
has inked a seven-figure deal to helm "Muppets From Space," shooting
in Australia in September.
It will be the second time Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear and the
rest of the Muppets will be directed by someone not connected directly
with The Jim Henson Company. The first being James Frawley who
directed "The Muppet Movie". Subsequent films were directed by Jim
Henson, Frank Oz and the last two by Brian Henson. It also marks the
first time a Muppet Film will be filmed in Australia. Also the place
of filming the new Jim Henson Company/Hallmark Entertainment sci-fi
series "Farscape" to air on the Sci-Fi Channel.
Jim Henson Pictures execs on the project are Stephanie Allain and
Kristine Belson. Screenplay is by longtime Muppets scriptor Jerry
Juhl.
"I just read it a couple of weeks ago and I thought it was great –
very clever and funny," Klieser told Daily Variety. "I just wanted to
do it. I’ve worked with animals and children but never puppets."
Kleiser’s previous films include "It’s My Party," "White Fang," "The
Blue Lagoon" and "Honey, I Blew Up the Kids." His 23-minute, 3-D film
"Honey, I Shrunk the Audience," which is showing at Disney’s Epcot
complex in Florida and Disneyland Tokyo, opens Friday at Disneyland’s
renovated Tomorrowland in Anaheim.
"Muppets From Space" will be released by Columbia Pictures in July
1999.

MUPPETS "FROM" SPACE!
Muppet News Flash!
I just read in today’s Variety online page that the movie "Muppets ‘From’
(that’s what they called it folks) Space" is going to start filming in
Australia very soon. Jerry Juhl wrote it (YAY!) Some guy named Kleiser, NOT
Brian Henson, is going to direct it.
Could be good news or bad news. Kleiser also directed "Blue Lagoon" (blech).
Do a search on Variety and read the rest for yourselves. Providing links is
WAY beyond my meager computer skills, and hubby ain’t home to help.

Daniel,

According to IMDB, Muppets From Space was shot in Wilmington, NC, USA at Screen Gems Studios :confused:
