The Muppet movies would like a word with you

Like Spin City?

And there was supposed to be a third one of those, I think.

I found MU very funny in the theater, but I’ve yet to revisit that (or Brave, which I didn’t dislike or particularly like all that much either).

I think that’s the point. It’s not Pixar’s most spectacular output, and yet it spawned two sequels, a theme park, direct-to-video spin-offs, a bunch of shorts, etc. Why should so much success come from something not many people liked in the first place?

If a world full of cars has been constantly producing exhaust for what must be centuries, shouldn’t the planet be filled with air pollution and have no sustainable plant life whatsoever?

The Pixar logo at the beginning counts as a moment, right?

Especially because they instead used the storytelling device for Finding Dory.

I love this headline.

I liked Finding Dory, but nothing could ever top this one.

I was lucky enough to go a preview screening not long before the lockdowns began.

Thanks for the input.

No, no, that’s an ARK. Haven’t you seen Evan Almighty???

Well, Marty didn’t have much of an arc in the first movie; the Doc and his parents did. The next two movies gave him that to help him grow. I’ve never found it a problem like you do.

It still amazes me that those FOX reruns make up like 70% of their schedule.

Is it odd that there’s no full list of all the stuff coming when it launches in a few days (not just movies and original shows)?

I still like the Goldbergs.

Beggars can’t be choosers, really. I want more Muppet stuff and I will take what I can get.

I liked it for the most part too. I’m not keen on the approach, but I liked the premise, the puppetry work was phenomenal, and most importantly it was super funny like 90% of the time.

Muppets Take Manhattan and Muppets from Space were originally distributed by Columbia/Tri-Star, and the rights to those films have remained with them since.
