Dubious Fact

Awhile back, an anonymous user added this claim, unsourced: "*In the final scene of the film where Gonzo's alien brothers sing "Celebration", one of the puppets used was actually an original Gonzo puppet from the late 1970's." It strikes me as rather unlikely, given the number of times the original Gonzo puppet was redone, and if they did have one left, it seems odd to redo him rather than just use another spare Gonzo or a new one for that scene. The lack of sourcing or specificity makes this suspect, unless anyone can recall something about this from the Muppets from Space making of book or whatnot. --Andrew, Aleal 14:15, 28 April 2006 (UTC) 14:14, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, that doesn't sound right to me. Unless there's a source for it, I'd say take it out. -- Danny Toughpigs 14:59, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
Yeah, I asked just on the off chance it was actually in Muppets From Space: The Making of Muppet Movie Magic. --Andrew, Aleal 15:02, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Neutral point of view?

The synopsis here is good... but using words like "superb" and "great" to describe its merits don't fit with what I understand to be the objective voice inherent in the Wiki concept. At the very least, there should be a mention of the many fans who didn't find MFS up to par. Or am I out of line? PrawnRR 18:22, 8 Dec 2005 (UTC)

You're right... Wiki articles should be made of facts, and not opinions. Go ahead and edit it to be more NPOV. -- Toughpigs 18:35, 8 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Okay... I edited, but it could still use some fleshing out. PrawnRR 18:51, 8 Dec 2005 (UTC)

That works, for now. -- Toughpigs 18:56, 8 Dec 2005 (UTC)

Did Gonzo really ever wonder what he was before Muppets from Space, though? I remember the other characters sometimes doing so, but I always thought Gonzo's identity crisis was more of a Muppet Babies creation.--Pantalones 19:00, 8 Dec 2005 (UTC)

I don't know if you could say he was wondering... There was definitely some confusion about it. Kermit mentions it in The Muppet Movie when he's talking to himself. In the Liberace episode, Gonzo tries to talk his way into Liberace's dressing room by claiming to be a bird. I think you're right that he didn't have any angst about it until Muppet Babies. -- Toughpigs 23:03, 8 Dec 2005 (UTC)
