Double Edged Double Bill 236: Journey Through the Henson Labyrinth of Muppets
Guillermo del Toro is bringing Pinocchio to life this week on Netflix with the help of The Jim Henson Company. So, Adam and Thomas are devoting an episode to the history of Henson and its cinematic puppetry works! First, Jim Henson brings his most beloved characters to the big screen for the first time with the original 1979 classic The Muppet Movie! Then, David Bowie and his goblin minions might not be enough to entertain one of our co-hosts in Labyrinth! Together, our duo answers the crucial questions. How do The Muppets pull off the magic trick of us believing they're just actors? What Star Wars character is a distant cousin of The Fireys? Which two films will they choose for next week's episode on Sigourney Weaver? Well, keep movin' right along and avoid any large bulges so you can listen to find out!
