This is a very cute tweet, but please be aware that the muppet performers are SAG members and performing the characters during the strike (even on the picket line) would be considered scabbing
this is the first time i’ve looked at a piece of barbie promotion and thought it was bad. there is no cohesion here; this song goes terribly with this footage.
The Muppets are a product (and relic) of their time. They’re no longer relevant or relatable. They will never be a huge franchise. I’ve been saying this for years. That said, if you’re going to attempt it, building shows around obscure / niche characters is NOT the way to do it.

This could potentially get them into legal issues with Disney.
The performers should be able to protest sans puppets and get treated with the same respect as their fellow actors.

Rewatching the Muppet Mayhem panel, and I think this is the first time I’ve seen a performer go “okay, this is getting very uncomfortable, I’m gonna break whatever is left of the illusion”
the Fraggles should have their own twitter accounts like Sesame Street and the Muppets do
logically they wouldn’t know what phones or twitter are but I still want it
Walter in The Muppets (2011): I love the muppets so much 🥺 i hope they like me and accept me 🥺

Instead of dwarfs in Disney’s ‘SNOW WHITE’ remake, it will instead be a group of “magical creatures.”

If I had a nickel for everytime John Mulaney played a self-aware animated character in a film where Post Malone did a main song, I would have 2 nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
Time Piece always intrigued me because this was nominated for an academy award, and Jim Henson could’ve completely gonna down this kind of path as a filmmaker.
But he still decided to do work with puppetry instead because he had such a vision for the art form.
