Fantastic work!
but why can't anyone get kermits voice right?
- Because Jim Henson died in 1990.harlequino
- i know, but they're getting all the other muppets voices right. poor kermit sounds like he's being voiced by an intern.SteveJobs
- It's Brian Henson, Jim's son. I know, not great. They should do open auditions.harlequino
- actually i don't believe brian has ever been very involved in the voices.7point34
- Fozzie doesn't sound right either.Point5
- Ah yes, this is true. Kermit is performed by Steve Whitmire.harlequino

Personal request:
Can we have The Muppets permanently on the home page, and in the main content window? Not necessarily for this site launch, but just the Muppets, y'know? Lookin all friendly and welcoming. Kthx.- and waldorf and statler jeering all of our posts. ID PAY FOR THAT CONTENT!!SteveJobs

mm.. not a fan to be honest
give a day, get a day?? - there is zero explanation about the campaign
there a huge over promise/under delivery - in terms of "hey you're on the site with the muppets.." - it's hardly 3d facemapping, AR, voice recognition, webcam controls etc etc - it is literally my name on a newspaper..
it's actually quite bizzare the whole thing.. charming if you like the muppets..
but essentially it seems like a really expensive banner ad - which completely fails at making me aware of the campaign it's promoting.
:(
- sorry to be a cunt.gentleman

flackblag1 - dont be sorry cause your actually a cockflackblag1

Can you imagine that we waste our lives on this sort of crap?
You're on your deathbed, reflecting on your life and you think...I did it...I made a muppets flash site.
- i was thinking the same thing about your postPonyBoy
- I spoke truth to power. That's actually admirable.ihatedesigners
- You're a hero, man. A hero.harlequino
- Quit wasting your time making stupid Flash sites!ihatedesigners

my point was more aimed at the creative agency rather than the production house.
how can you fuck up saying something so simple as that 3 step procedure.
whether its in flash or not is irrelevant. the point is - its Muppets being muppets.. and thats it. all the work that has gone to develop the 'give a day, get a day' campaign has just been completely underminded.
somone out there in a marketing department must be fucked off that they've just blown a heap of cash and no one out there knows about their initiative... good luck explaining why at the next client meeting Vanksen :P

was I a lucky one then? I like the Muppets so I watched the whole animation thing, then clicked through to read about the Give a Day Get a Day program and proceeded to read about the volunteer opportunities in my city. I was not confused about it at all.
- you're not alone... the idea (i think) is that the muppets are SO FUCKING RAD... you're gonna watch / read it all... duh.PonyBoy

point 5 im with you. i thought it was great too.
watched the whole anim - muppet chaos is always good :)

Didn't have a clue what was going on and the personalisation was tacked on an weakly implemented.
Nicely produced though, apart from the page destruction bit not working right for me.

- did you notice they suck your down your personal info on the site and can use it at their will? read the fine print.robotron3k
