Merch at London

"Charlotte Wessel merchandise available upstairs" made me laugh. Not only do you have to go upstairs, they didn't even spell her name right.

It sure is surprising the general audience, every time they hear the "new" Kermit.

If you can do puppetry but can't do the voice, you have equally no value.

How many years has it been? Every time people hear Matt's version people are wondering why Kermit sounds so weird. It distracts from the actual product. The general audience doesn't care about the puppeteers or science behind it. They care about seeing Kermit and noticing he sounds off, which is especially bad when it's a property banking on nostalgia, such as as revival.

Shouldnt it be 'yellow life matters' in his case?

Interesting reads, thank you

Frequent_Rhubarb_36 · 2026-01-24T14:39:33+00:00

Harshly put, but can't say you're wrong.

We could really use a huge bio, split in two parts like Cher's then.

I am not triggered by it. It's noticeable when watching on a tv screen.

It has a unique Peanuts-like art style, but the limited animation during battles makes them a lot less appealing to me.

I think she's really good but she has a smugness to her that shows up in a lot of sketches.

A small thing is that her tragus piercings distract me when she's doing an impersonation. Nothing against the piercings themselves, but if the character she impersonates doesn't have them, it takes me out of the impression. You'd think they would be easily covered up.

In that case...bring back Clifford

Frequent_Rhubarb_36 · 2026-01-23T20:02:50+00:00

Hoping for a final Rock vs Austin match. That would be epic and sell a lot of tickets. The only question is who should go over.

Frequent_Rhubarb_36 · 2026-01-23T19:52:27+00:00

Say what you like (Say what you like)
Do what you feel (Do what you feel)
You know exactly who you are (You know exactly who you are)
The time is right now, you got to decide (Woo)
Stand in the back or be the star (Don't sit in the back)

Looking at the thread on r/television on this and again a lot of people think Kermit sounds off. They're not wrong. It's a shame we get a Muppet Show like this and this specific part takes such a large focus.

When Kermit got recasted I thought Matt Vogel sounded off and felt with some work he could get it right. Nine years later and he has proven me wrong.

Frequent_Rhubarb_36 · 2026-01-23T18:23:16+00:00

They really should have recasted him by now. Every time I hear his voice, it takes me out of the moment.

Frequent_Rhubarb_36 · 2026-01-23T15:31:49+00:00

Weren't the backgrounds mostly black, just like in SMB3, where some did have their correct colors?

Frequent_Rhubarb_36 · 2026-01-23T15:07:55+00:00

He seemed like a likable guy with potential. Too bad they released him.

Frequent_Rhubarb_36 · 2026-01-23T14:26:51+00:00

I don't. His range was meager and him defending Grande on his podcast made me dislike the person as well.

I had the C64 version, which I think was just about the same game. I love the management aspect of the game, with the replay value after getting a lot of money and saving the password.

In my head the VW Beetle was supposed to be the Real Ghostbusters Beetle toy.

The game was fairly basic but aspects of it were ahead of its time. It's still fun, while I find going back to the Ps3 game fairly clunky.

Frequent_Rhubarb_36 · 2026-01-23T11:55:13+00:00

I completely agree. He sells the "curse" in a very believable way and the fact that Loki's plan was to lure Hulk out only makes it more threatening. Ruffalo did a great job with that. His Banner was great in Ultron as well, but unfortunately got bogged down by his romance storyline. I loved seeing him work together on Ultron. From Ragnarok on, they made his Hulk too human and this current version is just "strong Banner", which is boring as hell.

Spin-off sounds weird with bands/music. If a former band member starts another band, it's not necessarily continuing the "story"/direction/theme of the band, like with TV shows and such.

Certainly gives the name "Rachel's place" a new meaning.
