EZweasel · 02-18-2004, 11:25 AM

i dont know if anyone has heard this, but disney has just bought the muppets out. does this mean we will see more muppet movies now? and what happens to the muppet line of figures. reason i know this is because i just heard it on the news.

Poor Donald!!!

Fat chance of that happening, Matt, considering how racist it was.

impetus · 02-18-2004, 12:09 PM

maybe in a special "Vault" archive? I don't really see an official release happening. I also want to see the old WWII Disney toons.

what are the chances of an unofficial release? meybe it's out there somewhere.

How was it racist? Have you even seen it? That movie is anti-Nazi!

"What is a muppet anyway?
Well, it's not quite a puppet, and not quite a mop, but maaan, hehehe...in conclusion, I don't know."

This isn't gonna save Disney, so I don't see the point.
