The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992)

Merry dang Christmas. Yeah, we got a Christmas Day drop. Angela is making us work on a major holiday for little to no (zero) pay. She’s a real “Ebenezer Scrooge”. This episode of MOVIEHUMPERS (soon to be “THE PROJECTORS”) might be the loosest one yet. Way more loose than your mother. What are we saying? Why are we being so antagonistic? Is this what Christ would have wanted? It’s HIS day. HIStory. The fuck is “wassailing”? I don’t know let me look it up… “To encourage the spirits of the trees to ensure a good harvest”. Wow, it’s about crooning the trees so that you get bountiful cider. Real old world shit. Wassailing turned out to be cooler than I thought it would be not unlike “THE MUPPET CHRISTMAS CAROL” from 1992 starring Michael Caine and our felty friends, The Muppets. Directed by Brian Henson and the first Muppet film after Jim Henson’s death. We all know the story. Hell, this is our second film adaptation of “A Christmas Carol” this month. The real question in every adaptation is, of course, “What do the ghosts look like?”. A bit more unsettling considering what one might expect from the world of Muppets. Could a Muppet ever be an official Moviehumpers/Projectors “DAWG”??? Truly, I Miss Piggy might be the only one. We love how she attacks people. She sparked our lifelong love of karate. God bless us everyone.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
