Shit, it's on DVD now? My favorite christmas flick of all time!

"Half of fifty cents, half of fifty cents"

i love how everyone in it walks by, like, just kicking their feet up in front of them

I LOVE that movie!!! My parents taped it off HBO when I was about eight years old, and I still have it. I watch it every year.

Sometimes, when I'm really sad, I play the scene with the "Mess of Momma's Barbecue" song (they're in the tree house). It always makes me smile because I feel like a kid again, and the song is kind of fun.

the fact that this exists has saved my week

That was one of my favorite movies growing up, they used to show it every December 10 or 11 times on HBO, and I'd always look forward to it. To my surprise, I found it on DVD last year, and bought it without a second thought-long live Jim Henson.

This is THE greatest holiday movie ever! I've worn out 2 VHS copies of this, so it's definitely time for the DVD! My day has now been brightened.

"Oh, your nails won't break
and your toes won't stub
You'll never get a fever
when there ain't no hole
in the washtuuuuuuuuuuuub"

Edit for double post

But don't forget about the Riverbottom Nightmare Band!

i so remember that movie
i want it!
grrrr i bet i cant get it here.


but does any one remember the best christmas pagent ever?

i heart you people.

i loved this when i was a kid. don't know how i'd like it now....but i do still love the muppets

I have that on the same tape as "Emmet Otter". My parents taped a bunch of Christmas stuff onto one tape when I was young, so it has both of those plus a "For Better or For Worse" cartoon, the Berenstein Bears' Christmas cartoon, "Nutcracker", and "A Christmas Story".

babynnove..........that just might be the CUTEST thing I've ever heard.

Bump!

only 10 shopping days left!

This squealy comment still stands. How did I forget to buy this DVD last year?!?

I need to hear the Barbecue song RIGHT NOW. It kicks so much ass.

Added:

Oof. I just read this about the DVD. Several forums mention this:

'Kermit's narration has been removed, the ending is changed, and some of the lyrics of the songs are redone.'

"Look at the birds up in the trees"
"We're not birds. We're a Jugband!"

Is it bad that i have Emmet Otter MP3s? :/

This rules, though. This will be my #1 holiday purchase.

Fuck Yeah

Fucking awesome. I had utterly forgotten this.

I will send you cookies if you can send those to me somehow, particularly the barbecue song.

I'm not joking.

For cookies, i will look to see what i have. I may only have a couple, mind you.
