Have Your Say in WAMG’s MUPPETS Hall of Fame!

By  | 

Jim Henson may have moved on to the big Muppet Show in the sky, but his legacy lives on. His magic will soon be renewed for a whole new generation in theaters beginning Friday, November 23rd.

We Are Movie Geeks wants to honor Jim Henson and his Muppet family in our own way, so we are establishing our own We Are Movie Geeks’ THE MUPPETS Hall of Fame.

We realize The Muppets are loved by all, so we’re not going to limit the selection process to within our own geek ranks, like how sports writers decide athletic hall of famers. No, we’re making this an open, democratic process and asking all of you to submit your votes.

The Muppets Hall of Fame will consist of the Top Ten favorite Muppets, as voted by you, our readers and fellow Muppet-maniacs. Simply place your vote as a comment at the bottom of this article, along with a brief statement explaining why that Muppet is your favorite. This can be a memory, a personal anecdote, or whatever comes to mind regarding your pick. The explanation is optional, but if you participate, yours may be quoted in the Muppet Hall of Fame!

The Icing on the Cake: In addition to having your Muppet love plastered online for all the world to read, one lucky reader will be randomly selected to win a MUPPETS Prize Pack, consisting of a poster, a t-shirt, and a pair of sunglasses!

Here are the rules of the voting process:

  • Anyone can vote! Just register (free) on wearegoviegeeks.com to access the comments section.
  • You may only vote ONCE! Don’t try any sneaky, Florida-style voting tricks. If you do, we’ll know!
  • Only official Jim Henson Muppets are eligible. No fan-made Muppets, or characters from Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock, etc. Yes, we are well aware that Jim Henson was behind some other great characters, but we want to keep this pure to The Muppets.
