‘The Muppet Christmas Carol' underwhelmed at the box office when it was first released on 11th December, 1992 - but found its audience on video and DVD in the decades later, becoming a gold-plated Christmas classic, re-watched by families, year after year. There was darkness behind the scenes - from the sudden death of Muppets creator Jim Henson, to the legal wrangling over Disney's acquisition deal for his company, and composer Paul Williams's return from a difficult decade of addiction. But, despite this, or, perhaps, because of it, 28 year-old first-time director Brian Henson delivered a faithful and enduring adaptation of Charles Dickens's novel. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly discover how Steve Whitmire shouldered the daunting job of playing Kermit for the first time; consider Michael Caine's masterstroke performance as Scrooge (‘as if playing opposite the Royal Shakespeare Company'); and reveal how Jerry Juhl's script shifted from comedy pastiche to heartfelt musical… Further Reading: • ‘‘You'll never see Michael Caine blink': An oral history of The Muppet Christmas Carol at 30' (The Independent, 2022): https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/the-muppet-christmas-carol-brian-henson-b2243015.html • ‘The Muppet Christmas Carol movie review' (Roger Ebert, 1992): https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/the-muppet-christmas-carol-1992 • ‘The Muppet Christmas Carol Trailer #1' (Disney, 1992): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNo-Q0IDJi0 #90s #Film #Christmas #Heartwarming Thanks so much for supporting the show!

Every time Disney adapts A Christmas Carol, it's a ghost story—but it's not just about Scrooge. It's a story about the Walt Disney Company itself. CHECK OUT THIS EPISODE IN VIDEO FOR THE FULL EXPERIENCE @ https://youtu.be/pCARpdjm0rk From the hand-drawn rebirth of Mickey Mouse in the 80s to the felt-and-friendship of the Muppets in the 90s, and the high-stakes digital ambition of the 2000s, each adaptation of Dickens' classic reveals exactly where Disney was as a company, what it was struggling with, and what kind of "spirit" was guiding its decisions. Join Eric as we unwrap the surprising corporate history hidden inside three holiday classics: The Ghost of Ink and Paint (1983) Mickey's Christmas Carol was more than a cute holiday short; it was a desperate sign of life from a struggling animation studio. We explore how this small project became a proving ground for the next generation of Disney legends (Keane, Lasseter) and marked the grand return of Mickey Mouse during Ron Miller's uncertain tenure. The Ghost of Felt and Friendship (1992) The Muppet Christmas Carol was the first Muppet film made without Jim Henson—and the first under the Walt Disney Pictures banner. It's a story of legacy, loss, and how Brian Henson fought to keep the heart in the story (and why a certain song was controversially cut by Jeffrey Katzenberg). The Ghost of Digital Ambition (2009) Robert Zemeckis' motion-capture version starring Jim Carrey was designed to be the ultimate A Christmas Carol. Instead, it became a cautionary tale about the high cost of innovation, the "uncanny valley," and why Disney's $200 million experiment (ImageMovers Digital) shuttered just two years later. These films are a timeline of Disney's struggles, expansions, and triumphs. Watch now to discover the surprising synergy of art, commerce, and Christmas spirit!

Go down the box office charts for 1992, and you need to look a long way before you find The Muppet Christmas Carol. Directed by Brian Henson, the movie was in 45th place at the box office that year, with surprisingly few choosing to check it out on its initial cinema release. The film had come together following the death of Muppets creator Jim Henson, and there'd been some difficulty cracking what the next Muppet film should be. Even when they settled on an adaptation of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, there were a few different choices that were nearly made. The story of the film is told in this episode...

The Muppet Movie is a 1979 musical road comedy, and the feature film debut of The Muppets, Jim Henson's famed ensemble of puppet characters. Produced by Henson himself, the film was directed by James Frawley and written by Muppet Show writers Jerry Juhl and Jack Burns, and followed the origin story of the puppet troupe as Kermit The Frog travels across the country to make it big in Hollywood, meeting a cavalcade of friends along the way. The film starred Henson and Muppet ensemble players like Frank Oz, Jerry Nelson, Richard Hunt, and Dave Goelz, with human performances by Austin Pendleton and time-defying legend and cryptozoological enigma Charles Durning, a plethora of cameos from the likes of Dom DeLuise, Madeline Kahn, Steve Martin, Mel Brooks, and many more, and featured a soundtrack by Kenneth Ascher and Paul Williams. (Mr. Sex himself!) The Muppet Movie was a major commercial and critical success, and was deemed culturally significant by the Library of Congress in 2009.On a new episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott close out #HotDurnAutumn with a screening of The Muppet Movie, joined by special guest and friend of the pod Danielle Brown.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesThough Disney and Marvel Studios have remained tight-lipped and cagey concerning details around the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday, the Internet, and a few reputable trades, have collectively discerned that we apparently “know when the Avengers: Doomsday trailer is coming.” The prognosticators have deytermined the trailer will be attached to December's Avatar: Fire & Ash – big news, if true! Another unconfirmed, but believable rumor that has taken the Internet by storm concerns Marvel TV's Wonder Man series and its episode run times, which places the longest episode at 34 minutes and the shortest at 23 including credits. Per The Hollywood Reporter, DC Studios has greenlit a Superman spinoff series focusing on standout Skyler Gisondo's Jimmy Olsen and coming to us from Dan Perrault and Tony Yacenda, the creators of Netflix's award-winning mockumentary American Vandal. The series is said to focus on Olsen and other Daily Planet reporters, (though Lois Lane and Clark Kent were conspicuously excluded,) as he tackles cases involving superpowered villains, with Season One featuring Flash rogue Gorilla Grodd as a big bad. Predator Badlands was the apex, ahem, predator at the box office last weekend debuting to $40 million domestically and doubling the haul internationally at $80 million worldwide. The film outperformed expectations, representing a much-needed shot of adrenaline in what has been a lethargic Fall box office, while also putting up bests for the franchise; beating out 2004's Alien Vs Predator and 2018's The Predator in the domestic and global arenas, respectively.Blue Beetle and Cobra Kai star Xolo Maridueña has been cast in season 3 of Netflix's One Piece and will play the character Portgas D. Ace.Jennifer Lawrence recently revealed that she and Emma Stone are developing a movie about the iconic Muppet Miss Piggy with Oh, Mary! writer and Tony winner Cole Escola penning the script, marking the character's first solo outing siynce Jim Henson debuted her on The Muppet Show in 1976.Netflix and Sony have finalized a deal for another “KPop Demon Hunters” movie, with plans to release the animated musical sequel in 2029.Lionsgate has released the first trailer for Michael Jackson biopic 'Michael' starring Jaafar Jackson, the nephew of the late pop icon. The film from director Antoine Fuqua is set to hit theaters on April 24, 2026, after its release was delayed several times.Prime Video announced that season two of The Night Manager, starring Tom Hiddleston, will premiere on January 11. The second season comes back to Prime ten years after the first season debuted. Warner Brothers has set a release date for the next film in The Gremlins franchise of November 19th 2027. Steven Spielberg is returning to executive produce “Gremlins 3” while “Harry Potter” filmmaker Chris Columbus is set to direct and produce. Disney has released the first official trailer for season 2 of Percy Jackson and The Olympians, which begins streaming on December 10th. In gaming news, Skydance Games is once again pushing the release for the much-anticipated “Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra” video game from May 2026 to November 2026. Rockstar Games also announced that they would be delaying Grand Theft Auto 6 once again, this time from May 2026 to November 2026 as well. Ryan Reynolds and Amazon MGM have teamed up to develop a remake of Thunderbolt & Lightfoot, a 1974 action comedy that starred Clint Eastwood and Jeff Bridges. Reynolds is eyeing to star in the adaptation and is also collaborating on the script with writers Enzo Mileti and Scott Wilson, a writing team who worked on season four of comedic crime show Fargo. Shane Reid, who edited Reynolds' Deadpool & Wolverine, will make his directorial debut with the project.

Big Bird, Oscar and Bert & Ernie were first introduced to America's children on 10th November, 1969, when Sesame Street made its small-screen debut. Designed to resemble a real inner-city street, its set and multicultural cast including African Americans was a groundbreaking concept. Aiming to address educational inequality, its creators Joan Ganz Cooney and Lloyd Morissette had been inspired by the idea that TV could help underprivileged kids get a leg-up by learning through engaging skits, songs, and lovable characters. The show became wildly popular, with 7 million children watching daily, and early studies showing viewers scored higher on educational tests. Over time, the series tackled issues such as racism, death, autism and bullying. Arion, Rebecca and Olly recount how Jim Henson came on-board; reveal how racists in Mississippi refused to screen the series; and explain how this transformational show came about thanks to a dinner party gambit… Further Reading: • ‘How Sesame Street Helps Children Learn for Life' (PBS, 2017): https://www.pbs.org/education/blogs/pbs-in-the-classroom/how-sesame-street-helps-children-learn-for-life/ • ‘Mississippi banned Sesame Street for showing Black and White kids playing' (The Washington Post, 2023): https://www.washingtonpost.com/history/2023/02/05/sesame-street-ban-mississippi/ • ‘Sesame Street' (Children's Television Workshop, 1969): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9NUiHCr9Cs Love the show?

Welkom bij aflevering 233 van Nerd Culture die volledig in het teken staat van de Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film uit 1990. Vanwege de Gamekings Guide to Korea trip zullen we de komende drie weken wat uitstapjes maken ten opzichte van de reguliere afleveringen, dus ga er lekker voor zitten en laat je verrassen!Kevin Eastman en Peter Laird zijn de grondleggersIn 1984 ontstonden de Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles uit de geniale en ietwat gestoorde geesten van Kevin Eastman en Peter Laird. Wat begon als een parodie op populaire comics als Daredevil en X-Men, groeide uit tot een wereldwijd fenomeen. Met hun mix van martial arts, mutatie en New Yorkse attitude werden Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo en Raphael iconen van de popcultuur, met strips, speelgoed, tekenfilms en later natuurlijk… films.Jim Henson bracht de Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles tot levenDe film uit 1990, geregisseerd door Steve Barron, bracht de Turtles voor het eerst tot leven in live-action, met behulp van baanbrekende kostuums en animatronics van Jim Henson's Creature Shop. Ondanks een beperkt budget en scepsis van Hollywood wist de film een unieke balans te vinden tussen duistere comicbook-serieuze thema's en de humor waar fans van hielden. Het resultaat was een onverwacht megasucces — en tot op de dag van vandaag geldt deze film voor velen als de definitieve Turtles-ervaring.TMNT fanboys kennen geen geneIn deze special laten Koos en Jasper hun innerlijke fanboys volledig de vrije loop. Ze bespreken elke scène in detail, van de epische introductie van Shredder tot de iconische pizza-momenten, en duiken diep in wat de film zo bijzonder maakt. Verwacht nostalgie, inside jokes, nerdy trivia en pure liefde voor vier gemaskerde helden die in de riolen van New York geschiedenis schreven.

This episode, hosts Phil and Sydnni return to the Dreamspace to dive into a spirited discussion just in time for the spooky season — could The Dark Crystal actually be considered a Halloween movie? With Fathom Events bringing Jim Henson's fantasy classic back to theatres in October, the hosts explore the film's darker tones, eerie atmosphere, and the haunting beauty that makes it a perfect addition to any Halloween watchlist. From mysterious trailers that once scared theater audiences in 1982, to the film's near-Christmas release and its potential as both a Halloween and Christmas classic, Phil and Sydnni unpack the uncanny magic that makes The Dark Crystal timeless. Along the way, they share updates from the wider Henson world and reflect on how the changing seasons — both in life and in Thra — always bring new reasons to return to The Dark Crystal.
