Muppets pre-parade at Disneyland
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Re: Muppets pre-parade at Disneyland
Disney really seems to be trying to plug the Muppets lately. They've been popping up on TV shows too.

My wife & I were just talking about this last night. Last week's Home Makeover had Muppet "volunteers" (tying in with the new promotion), and last night's AFV had them on also.Syndrome wrote:Disney really seems to be trying to plug the Muppets lately. They've been popping up on TV shows too.

And there is also the new "MuppetsStudios" channel on youtube;Syndrome wrote:Disney really seems to be trying to plug the Muppets lately. They've been popping up on TV shows too.

Plus, there is a theatrical Muppet movie in development.
I love the Muppets, so I'm glad that they have been doing so much lately.
I really enjoyed their appearances on Extreme Makeover and AFV. This is actually the second time that they have appeared on either of those shows.
The Muppets finally seem to be in a good place with Disney. Hopefully the movie turns out well.
