Hrmm...

Blah...

I just don't think the Muppets doing Wizard of Oz is what they need to invigorate the characters.

I want to see more of the characters doing ORIGINAL stuff.

I guess we'll see, though.

I'm a HUGE fan of the wizard of oz books, so I'm really optimistic about this project. I think that the muppets can really make it fun and fresh; I'm probably the only one on the board who is excited about this but I don't care! :excited:

Sounds terrific! I can't wait to see what they do with it.

I wonder if they'll be writing any songs for the movie.

I think it's a good thing that it will be based on the book, at least. That will give them a chance to do some fresh new stuff, not just competing against Judy Garland. Still, I'd rather they do an original movie.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again:

Sigh......... :smirk: :frown:

I'm a big fan of the books, and I think this can really work. Remember, the best stuff from the Mupppet Show was parody!

I have high hopes for this project. I keep imagining Johnny Fiama as the Great and Terrible Oz with Sal as the doorkeeper. And oh, to see Pepe as Toto... :smile:

Sounds like fun!

At the very least it'll probably be better than 90 percent of what's on TV today.

I'm still mixed. I'm happy it's being based on the book and not just some cheapo parody of the movie. Hopefully this will turn out good, but I still would rather see something more of a sketch movie (like Monty Python's the Meaning of Life).

Hmm, Fox is involved. I just find that sort of interesting.

Hope it's good.
