Greetings, friends! Last weeks, the Muppets and I observed Martin Luther King Jr. Day but we’re back in action today with another post about MuppetVision at Hollywood Studios. I’m actually nervous to see how many times I’ve written about this attraction on the blog — it’s a big number, I’m sure — but I can’t […]
Read More‘ello! I hope you all had a grand weekend. It was a pretty relaxing, delightfully blustery few days in New York City, and a perfect afternoon to head to The Brooklyn Academy of Music for a showing of the I Am Big Bird documentary — spotlighting the almost 50-year career of Caroll Spinney, the man […]
Read MoreBig thanks to everyone who commented on my first High School Musical post! Today I’m discussing the second movie cleverly titled High School Musical 2. Basically, six months after the first movie, the crew is on summer break and due to the magical powers of Sharpay, they all end up working at the country club […]
Read MoreIf only I had done my research days ago. It wasn’t until Melissa from Mouse on the Mind texted me yesterday afternoon to inform me that Lesley Ann Warren had been a guest star on The Muppet Show back in Season 3. Why does this matter? Well, first, I’m obviously not watching these episodes fast […]
Read MoreFor all the time I spend talking about my affection for High School Musical, I have never officially written about it on the blog. Well, folks, the time has come. To commemorate the start of a brand new school year, I am assigning myself the task of rewatching all 3 movies in the High School […]
Read MoreI had a crazy Saturday where I ate cheese and watched High School Musical 2. In case you forgot, that’s the one where the kids from the first HSM movie are working at a country club owned by the parents of Sharpay and Ryan Evans — the musically talented and weirdly close siblings. Sharpay is […]
Read MoreIf you’ve watched only a few Muppet movies, you’ve noticed that Miss Piggy doesn’t have a solid gal pal she goes to when things are rough with Kermit, she needs advice on her red carpet style for the next big event, or deciding just how much of the script to rewrite when those things come […]
Read MoreJames and I spent another lovely Saturday afternoon at the Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria, Queens. Gosh, I love that place. Currently, the museum is featuring some fantastic World’s Fair footage and a very extensive Chuck Jones exhibit with all kinds of great cartoons I haven’t seen in ages. (I was reminded how […]
Read MoreBack again for another game of torture. I mean, FUN. Lots of fun. 😉 Songs from animated films — destined to become super memorable and other times, an earworm you wish you could turn off. Of course, not that we are up to this KILL REFURB MARRY, my mind can’t remember what annoys me. OF COURSE. […]
Read MoreI’m not sure how it happened. A complete oversight. I somehow married James without watching Hercules with him. This was a rite of passage with so many friends, and now, three years of marriage later, we finally crossed the threshold into Ancient Greece, Air Hercs, and (my personal favorite) Michael Bolton ballads. I’m happy to […]
