This looks really good. As a big fan of the original, and of Jim Henson in general, I think that Tartakovsky will do a bang up job with it. I've liked all the other stuff he's done.
"We can have a puppeteer in a blue suit holding the puppets and moving them around, and then we'll just take the puppeteer out," Tartakovsky said, going far beyond the days when Henson had four or five people squatting beneath each puppet. "Now we can put the puppet's feet on the puppeteer and connect their hands, and they can actually move them around."
That sounds like a really genius idea. It'll totaly dispense with all the clunky movements.
