They were originally going to include one or two SS character cameo's (I believe Elmo had confirmed one.), but because the characters are owned by different studios (Disney owns the Muppets. The Children's Television Workshop owns Sesame Street), legal troubles got in the way and they were either unable to aquire the rights to use them, or felt it was too much of a hassle, so they wrote them out.

At least, that's what I read.

Why thank you very much! Cute is kind of an inescapable thing when I draw. XD

I'll agree to the second viewing! It's certainly a film that deserves it!

You totally should when you get around to it! Never be enough love for this movie, I'll tell you what. ^w^
I'm sure if you loved the older ones you'll like this one. ;3

Thank you so much, BG! You're always such a sweetheart! And I'm always late with something..so I guess it comes as no surprise. XDD

Something about Gonzo is incredibly lovable, I don't even know what. He seems to be a lot of people's favourites. Yay!

Aww, gee again. I love drawing them, and I agree there isn't enough art of them! (But some of the art there is, is GORGEOUS. ^__^)

Well. it's only natural. People love the guy in the center of all the madness that is Jim's alter-ego Kermit, his bad comedian sidekick/adopted brother Fozzie, the OG Diva Miss Piggy AND of course, the resident blue daredevil (no correlation to the blind Marvel superhero) "weirdo" with a affection for poultry, no matter "Whatever" supposed "alien" species he is in Gonzo. They, along with Rowlf, seem to be the anchors holding this merry band of crazies together.

I was actually talking about the movie when it came to fans. I mean, you can never have enough muppet fans! But gee, you're just a sweetie pie, aren't you?

Maybe with some more Muppet art. I have an idea...now it just has to..well..y'know..make it to paper. XD I can't say I've watched BBC's Sherlock, but it sounds interesting. Is it good?

Yay! Whenever you feel like chatting (Or fangirl gushing..whatever. XD) just shoot me a note! ^__^ I'd be more than thrilled to chat!

Oh, the muppets definately has a lot of fans, but I think it's more of being fans of the actors as opposed to their films which, in my belief, is why they did a good job with the movie. Because they were potrayed as actors and not characters being played.

JUST MORE ART IN GENERAL! IT WOULD ALWAYS BE SUFFICE! and yes I must say that BBC's Sherlock is WONDERFUL! I loved it. It's a short series though, and it's very suspenseful. You MUST watch it! (afterwards maybe reading the hunger games)

OF COURSE! however I think that's what were doing now xD

OMG, you are so lucky you got to see it opening day/night! My dad had said we were defiantly going to see this one in theaters (Since a lot of the time, we just wait for it to come to DVD), but we didn't get a chance to go until Sunday. So we were a tad behind on the Muppet movie fan wagon. XD The whole time, my heart was just..gah..I don't even know what it was doing. Crying, laughing, getting excited over references I recognized. X3 It's odd because even my brother and sister (Who really aren't big fans of the Muppets in general) simply ADORED this film. That's gotta count for something, right? I can't remember how many people were in our theatre, but it was certainly much more full than it usually is on a Sunday matinee.

So cool you wore your Kermit hat! I wore my Gonzo shirt for the occasion. ^_^ Granted, it was under my winter jacket most of the time, but hey, it's the thought that counts. X3

"Life's a Happy Song" was just so...Muppet-y, I can't explain it. Not to mention it was so catchy, it defiantly deserves at least a nomination. I wasn't crazy about "Man or Muppet" (But the way it was choreographed and played out was HILLARIOUS. ), but "Pictures in My Head" made me tear up and I loved that one, so if that got nominated instead..I'd be happy. :3 I think the reason Rizzo didn't have such a big role (And don't quote me on this, because I'm not sure) was because Kermit had such a big role to play, thus Steve Whitmire was a bit busy with him. According to other sources, the original cut of the movie would have been over two hours long. So a lot of cuts here and there needed to be done. I demand a Director's cut, Disney!

The references to the other Muppet movies are some of the things that made me most happy. X3 I was kinda bummed other shows didn't at least get a nod, but I think I understand why. Elmo was originally going to make a guest appearance, but because he is not a character owned by Disney, legal troubles got in the way. Those legal troubles prevented any other nods. I don't know if Fraggle Rock is owned by Disney or not, but if they aren't, same legal troubles. And Bear IS owned by Disney, but I don't think he (being created after Jim Henson's time) would have been a top choice for guest appearance, since he wasn't around "back in the day", which is what this movie seemed to focus on. But hey...there's always, say, a possible sequel or television show if the rights are sold...soooo...

Aww, thank you, my friend! Gonzo's my favourite out of all of them too (And the second Kermit head. X3) and since he's my favourite, I'm glad I was able to do him justice. ^-^ I've really missed drawing, but lately, I just haven't been able to draw anything decent. I don't even know what my problem is. I just can't do it! D: It's been going on for a long time now. I wanna get out of it though, I have some Muppet idas now.

Ooh, that study mention has peaked my intrest! ;3 I look forward to your drawings if you ever get around to finishing them! Never enough Bear fanart! (And I know what you mean about Bear. Any other angle but the front is impossible for me. And the body...yipes...) Do you know how long its been since I've drawn the Bear crew? Too long. XD

I keep hearing how people were crying over this movie. I didn't cry at all (Makes me feel kinda heartless now. ), I was too busy laughing my head off and staring in awe. x3 I'm glad your siblings really like it too. Speaking of which, I wanted to drag my youngest brother into seeing it, but he was acting like he had something better to do. (which he did not.) It would have been even more fun...I was coming home from college for the holiday and I thought watching a movie with both of my closest siblings would be a nice way to start the break. :/

I need more Muppet shirts! I still don't have any MS character tees! I was gonna wear my Oscar shirt I got somewhere over the summer (I think?), since it was the closest character I had to Kermit, but I then thought of "The Rainbow Connection" and the RD shirt idea stuck. ^^

Yes in deedy, and it even has a banjo in it! Oh my gosh...I can't believe I already forgot about "Pictures in My Head" That probably would make a better nomination...I changed my mind now. x3 You have a point with Steve Whitmire being buzy. And I second that director's cut! >8O

He was? Bummer...Fraggle Rock is still own by The JHC. I hear they're still trying to make a movie with ther characters. I hope everything goes well, I'd love to see what a Fraggle movie would end up like...I just hope it doesn't get too modernized and stays true to the original show, y'know? It's hard to find a reboot film that does that.

I wish Disney would do someting with Bear. :C It's starting to become the most forgotten out of the core Muppet shows. People are starting to forget that it even existed...D: It breaks my heart whenever I come across articles that came out around the time Breakfast with Bear was airing, saying all the wonderful things they had instore for the francise. Hopefully they'll get to doing something when Disney Junior (I still don't like that name. xD) becomes its own channel. And I really hope at lest one of the Bear characters will interact with a Muppet Show character...

Aww...D: School work and procrastionation is what's getting in my way of drawing. Also, I have a wireless mouse now, so it might make it harder for me to trace over my work in GIMP. :I I don't feelin like follong around with this mouse, so I'm aiming on getting a tablet or for someone to buy me one. (Christmas hopefully! )

I have so much referance on him now, it's crazy! @_@ Just when I think I have an idea of how his body is supposed to be, I notice something else about him! His shape seems so difficult; it's not used to what I'm drawing. I'm trying to get myself to stop focusing on that and to just give 'im a try. I want to be able to draw him to the point that I'm comforatable with drawing him, but that might take a while and I have SO MANY ideas! Argh...

But here's the thing with Bear; he & his friends were made after Jim Henson's time & were part of the later Muppet brands.

Jim Henson Muppets: Sam & Friends, Sesame Street, The Muppet Show, Little Muppet Monsters/Muppet Babies, and Fraggle Rock, with The Jim Henson Hour as an honorable mention.

Later Muppet brands: Muppets Tonight (The Muppet Show's 90s equivalent), Bear in the Big Blue House (in conjunction with Disney), Animal Jam (the first major starring role of Leslie Carrera-Rudolph as zebra Edi, with the iconic giggle as a giveaway [ [link] ]), The Hoobs, Muppatop Shop, Johnny & the Sprites (with the guy who played Avenue Q's Princeton & Rod [ [link] ] & a purpose similar to that of the Fraggles, in terms of the show's symbiotic nature), Pajanimals, etc.

Creature Shop: Eureeka's Castle (done for Nickelodeon in the 80s [ [link] ], with mister "Goosebumps" R.L. Stine himself as writer), Allegra's Window (also for Nick, but much more short-lived), Dinosaurs (first made-by-Henson TV show to truly deviate from the usual Muppet formula), Star Wars' Yoda (performed by Frank Oz), Fairie Tale Theatre, Farscape, The Storyteller, Dark Crystal & Labyrinth (feature fantasy films, with the latter partially made by George Lucas), the dog-like flying thing from The Neverending Story, the live-action TMNT, etc.
