Still such a sad loss of creative innovator as Jim Henson. I still remember watching Emmit Otter's Christmas every year when I was young. I am closing in on fifty and I still find The Muppet Movie funny. Jim Henson didn't insult people's intelligence.

even though I see Jim with Kermit in the same shot....some part of my brain goes "nahhh, he's not a puppet. Jim's just holding him in the shot."

It's from Henson's own The Dark Crystal.

He achieved so much with puppets it's pretty amazing, he created whole worlds at a time with no CGI or anything like that, a lot of my happiest childhood memories come from watching the Muppets, Fraggle Rock and films like Labyrinth, i wish he was still around.

Jim Henson's world is the best. RIP Jim Henson, Richard Hunt, and Jerry Nelson, plus the performs from Sesame Street (Mr Hooper, Olivia, David).

I loved Emmit Otter's Jugband Christmas. It was briefly available on Netflix and I kept procastinating about watching it and then it expired. Hopefully it will return around Christmas time. .
