OT - I'm bored, Part Tanev

I was also in tears from the Jim Henson tribute.

Which season/movie is that?

I think it was a tribute show they did when Jim died.

Ah. That was the first time I saw it, just now.

 

[Darkstone42]

This is from Jim's memorial service.

Kind of cool to see the voices behind the puppets.

 

[naslundfan19]

That's cool Chris.

 

[naslundfan19]

By the way, is Frank Oz dead? Or does he just not want to do the Muppets anymore?

 

[Darkstone42]

He's still alive, but I wonder if his voice is giving out on him. Some of those voices he did must have been hard on his vocal chords.

 

[naslundfan19]

That makes sense.

I'm not surprised by that. I think the only person more torn up about Henson's death was Richard Hunt. I imagine it would have taken something unbelievably remarkable to get Oz on board.

Before I read the article, I thought the movie did a pretty good job of staying true to the older days. I still do, although I get what Oz was saying.

 

[naslundfan19]

The gag real was pretty cool too. Alright, I'm headed off of here. Later Chris!

 

[Darkstone42]

Later, Brian!

that was my favourite part of the movie... catching up with the gang.
some younger folks I know (who weren't as familiar with the old show) thought that part dragged a bit

I thought Rowlf's story was very compelling.
