@jeremiahtolbert @StaceyCKs1 It is, after all, the best era. Have I ever mentioned teaching The Muppet Movie in an Intro English-Speaking Cultures Through Cinema class? We watched the Muppet Movie to talk about kid-directed telegraphing of values of resistance and subversion of adult expectations, etc.On twitter.com

@jeremiahtolbert @StaceyCKs1 Oddly, my students insisted that the message (esp. in the final song, "Don't Stop Dreaming," etc.) was directed at 100% adults and not kids, "because kids still know how to dream, while the process of high school & university renders adults unable to dream and hope."Permalink On twitter.com
