Title: Jim should start lobbying now! (new Muppets movie)
Post by: pingybrown on Apr 21, 2008, 07:49 PM
There is currently a new Muppet movie in the works and it is being written now. Jason Segal is writing it. I think everyone should try to contact him (don't know how...but I am starting here: http://www.myspace.com/juddapatow and here: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=9208675 and here: http://www.the-frat-pack.com/) and tell him/them about Jim's love of the Muppets.

This is a golden opportunity. I would love to hear a Jim James' Muppets soundtrack.

Just a thought....
We need to send that guy a video of Jim performing the Rainbow Connection at Lollapallooza.

You know, Jim would be so cool on the muppet show or sesame street, he'd really fit in, he is part muppet. I think a musical collaboration with them would be spectacular. Jim loves goofy vocals and crazy sounds, I could definitely picture him jamming next to animal or grover.

Oh and I forgot, Jim has already been in Elizabeth town and "I'm Not There", so he has experience in the biz, I don't see why not, all the publicity the band is getting right now I could see it definitely being a possibility.

Sesema street did a cover of "she drives me crazy", by Fine Young Cannibals. Only it was during an episode focusing on the letter C, so it was "C drives me crazy". Great video. I think it is on youtube....classic. It's a shame The Street has changed so much over the years.

Maybe they could do something similar with "It beats for U". Jim could serenade the letter U in a romantic fashion.

How about Jim singing "It's Not Easy Bein Green" - I'd like to hear one for the Kermit!
