MUPPETS

the great choices (NPH, Silverman) barely had any lines, and the cameos that had many lines (like Jack Black) were basically worthless

Yeah, during the postfilm meal, my wife said "they left out Robin" and I said "nah, they renamed him Walter."

nothing quite as sublime as joan rivers in Manhattan or steve martin

god its the fuckking muppets they could have gotten anybody so why god why jack black.

eric h. is otm throughout this thread

wtf was Selena Gomez and the little kid from Modern Family even doing in this movie?

the mambo?

cuz they're on ABC, part of Disney? xp

Liked Alan Arkin's unenthusiastic scattering of pixie dust, also Amy Adams' 5 seconds of the Chaplin rolls dance. (She was criminally neglected though.)

they could have gotten anybody

dunno if this is true really

yeah Arkin was good

i wanted somebody with gravitas. funny muppet cameos are people like vanessa redgrave or maybe jessica lange or hell even steven tyler

Fozzie doesn't say words like that.

Don't know why people are getting so up in arms about this one.

Also, you do know the chickens were clucking "Forget You," right?

Amy Adams' 5 seconds of the Chaplin rolls dance. (She was criminally neglected though.)

Neglecting Adams is like a "keys to the city"-worthy act.

I kinda hate her for her part in that terrible Julia and Julia movie. which is (I think?) the only other thing I've seen her in

no idea why Morbz likes her

Enchanted?

She was good in The Fighter -- washed the cloying taste of the Julie character right out of my brain.

The Fighter is the one and only time I've been anything other than actively annoyed by her.

Also, you do know the chickens were clucking "Forget You," right?

See the diff? The adults supply the dirtiness.

i thought all of the fighter was annoying; she wasn't the worst thing in it so....

i mean you do know where mah ná mah ná comes from

a papa ná and a mah mah ná

THATS DIFFERENT FROM FOZZIE SAYING "FART" WTF IS DA MATTAH WIT U SCREWS

Adams is the most Muppety actor to appear w/ them since J Denver

I want to make a joke about Massive Attack's "Man Next Door" here but it seems labored

Fuck it, I'm glad Fozzie said "fart shoes" now.

If they'd made it "whoopee shoes" we'd have to come up with all new reasons to talk about Amy Adams.

also probably would've meant that Whoopi Goldberg got more lines

bullet dodged

Were my friends and I the only people to lose their shit during the 'me party' song?

why didja? Needed to have Piggy and AA together.

'cause it sounded like a song about masturbation

cretinous

Moar muppet jokes for ye olde spank bank plz

I purposefully trekked to the Muppet studio in Hollywood in July bcz it's Chaplin's old one. So, better movie with me, eh?

I once saw Chaplin eat a fart shoe with a fork and knife.

It's like a kind of torture
To have to read the posts!

true story: i once saw fred durst driving into the muppet studio w/ a six foot drag queen in the passenger seat.

And then the passenger threw scalding grits on the Swedish Chef?

in a fit of jealousy, I should have added

it was like real life animal and janis, but suckier

Animal should've played the Cassavetes part in The Fury

blowing up jason segal with his mind

was that Miss Poogy w/ Durst?

The Moopets definitely had their own thing going. Grohl might as well just do that for the rest of his days. (Saw it last night; my girlfriend says I was giggling for almost the entire film and I'll take her word for it.)

god its the fuckking muppets they could have gotten anybody so why god why jack black.

That's the only thing that irritated me about this movie, I thought the rest was great.

The Moopets kinda reminded me of the Feebles.

w/out the fluids

Black's presence destroyed the Nirvana barbershop.

watched Muppets Take Manhattan with my daughter the other night. all of you that think that's the best one are fucking insane and/or high

Da corn is popping in your face inna 3-D!

aggggggghhhhhhhhhhh

Yeah I saw the movie too, and I think it would be pretty hard to actively dislike

But I'm sure someone ITT will try!

i invite you to try to listen without crying and then tell me how you did it

well, not a big fan of Robin the Frog

i guess that's not surprising

thought the new one is fine and all, nothing much to complain about. but i have to say: walter is an ugly muppet! just unattractive. not cute. really doesn't look like much effort went into the little guy's getup.

i felt like he was supposed to look like a half-assed nu-80s muppets. and nerdy!
