The Muppets...

Mandi-chan · 06-09-2005, 07:36 PM

I'm was little bored and taking a trip down memory lane when I decided to post this. Anyone here still love the Muppets?

I do!

I have seen just about every single movie they've done, and have loved each and every one of them...I need to get them on dvd, heard stuff about the first season of the Muppet Show being relaesed on dvd soon...

*J Legault* · 06-09-2005, 10:16 PM

I love the Muppets, I almost own every Muppet movie.

I've yet to get the Muppet Show DVDs, atleast be able to get the one with Mark Hamil.

Yeah, I love the Muppets too! My favorite Muppets are the Swedish Chef, Sam the Eagle, and of course, Kermit. I love the movies, I actually just baught The Muppets Take Manhattan. I also really loved the Muppet Babies, that cartoon was great!

that would be sweet if they released the Muppet Show as seasons, instead of the "best of" specials they have on vhs.

*J Legault* · 06-09-2005, 11:07 PM

The star Wars related episodes of Muppet Babies are one of my favorite ones, but it's been years since I've seen them. One of my childhood favorite TV shows.

*Raph's Girl* · 06-09-2005, 11:18 PM

Kermie is hot!!!

Did anybody see "Muppets Wizard of Oz"??? Piggy played all 4 witches and the Wicked Witch was married to Muppet lounge singer Johnny Fiama!

Mahna mahna! Doo doooo doo doo doo! Mahna mahna! Doo doo doo doooo!

A Muppet Babies reference has recently weaseled it way into my every day life: I call my tea strainer an "Intergalactic Cheeseburger Maker" thanks to Gonzo. And I frequently confront hula dancers with "Hula... is coola."

**ThirdMarioBro** · 06-10-2005, 01:18 AM

I miss the Muppets. Hell, we all know what Gonzo was doing with that Chicken, and the point was it was obvious. Jim Henson had a sense of humor and good puppet humor was a rare thing back then (still is). I miss the Mupper Show, but now that Disney owns them we can be assured that they will stick to commercials and family humor. Damn you Disney. *sigh*

Anyway, that Star Wars episode will always remain in my Star Wars Video collection. Priceless.

**Barkworm** · 06-10-2005, 01:27 AM

What exactly happened in that ep? I was three or four when I watched it and I have only vague memories of it. I'm pretty sure Han and Chewie were in it.

That was with Sandra Bullock, right?

It has been ages since I last saw anything Muppets-related, but I remember I enjoyed that show like nothing else.

And the fact that Gonzo and Camilla made love in the Disney World laundrymat didn't phase ya any?? I was 9...that was not something I wanted to see or hear....

In case you're wondering what Im refering to... back around 1989 there was this special in which the muppets go to Disney world to meet Kermit's good friend Mickey Mouse.

Gonzo and Camilla did a little exploring of their own and ended up in the laundrymatt where Gonzo proceeded to sing to Camilla about how much fun it would be to make love in a laundrymatt... seriously...this was NOT for kids.....at the end of the song they dive into this pile of clothes and the next thing you hear is Camilla screaming Gonzo's name.....

In "Muppets Wizard of Oz" the Piggy/Kermit love plot was taken way out and put in a cameo role (the Scarecrow drools over the good witch Glenda in the end). The main subplot (sides Dorothy wanting to get home and become a singing sensation...) was Gonzo as the tin woodsman.... He was an ordinary fellow working for the Wicked witch till one day he asked for a raise and she turned him into a cyborg without a heart and without a heart he couldn't love Camilla anymore. So he wanted the wizard (Jeffry Tambor *lmao*) to give him a heart so he could love Camilla again. I actually felt sorry for Gonzo....

As for the Muppet Babies ep (and BTW... in Muppet Babies Camilla was a plush chick....I kinda thought that was odd) that features Star Wars.... well Dr. Who (Bensen and Beaker in a time traveling phone booth) was also in the ep as well as Star Trek..... best crossover ep ever.....

The Doctor showed up at Dogoba (Gonzolo and Fozbacca!) and take the SW characters to the Enterprise run by Capt. Kirkmet....but it was the Enterprise D so Rowlf played Mr. Woof...

The only Muppets things I've seen are "Muppets Up Late", "A Muppets Chrismas Charol" and "Muppets Treasure Island". I once saw "Muppets in Manhatten, but that was, what, twelve years ago

*The Stryker* · 06-10-2005, 11:24 AM

The only Muppet that confused me was that big furry thing that seemed like the resident Serial killer.

He scared the crap outta me when i was like 4

Shadow Leonardo · 06-10-2005, 01:10 PM

Ahh the Muppets I used to watch the Muppet Show VHS my dad gave to me all the time.My favorite Muppet was always Kermit the frog though no offense in all but I didn't really understand the relationship between Kermit and Miss Piggie.Did you know without the Muppets we wouldn't have Yoda or the 1st & 2nd TMNT movie costumes?

LOL, me too! That sounds so funny! The Muppets had tons of adult humor in them since the beginning from what I've heard. I'll find out when I start buying all the dvds.

I love all the movies, even the recent made for tv ones

.

My favorites are The Muppet Movie, Muppets Treasure Island, and Muppets from Space. I love all the other films too, those were my personal favs!

A lot of people didn't like The Space one though, I could never understand that. It made me love Gonzo even more and feel bad for his character, I hope we see more films like it. The Mupptes will never die!

Heh.

If I remember correctly, I think only Luke, R2D2, and C-3PO were in that one.
