Positive And Negative: The Muppet Movie (Opinions on TMM)

[Vincent L]

They never had any good movie roles, did they?

Really, what major roles could they play?

I enjoy TMM. More times I came to watched it, I liked it. Only the first time I just got a little disappointed that they didn't fully sing Rainbow Connection when altogether. But now, it's alright.

I love The Muppet Movie. It's a beautiful timeless piece of magic and I enjoy every minute of it. But if anybody would ask me, I couldn't think of any con. Maybe if I think hard and long enough (that is, for a year or longer). Perhaps Kermit meeting more Muppets on his way to Hollywood...?

The only con I can think of is the song Never Before, Never Again. With all respect to Frank Oz, I can't stand Piggy's singing voice.

The German singing voice was worse, take my word for it.

Well, if Bunsen had a better agent, maybe he could have played Lew Lord...

...and Beaker coulda played Charlie McCarthy...

Pros-Everything everything everything.
Cons-One thing too short.

 

[Dominicboo1]

Heh.

That's the MOST Bunsen and Beaker in the whole original trilogy.

In my opinion their best movie role is in Muppet Treaure Island, and that's supproting and not even of the originals!

CONS: I think they picked up the Muppets too fast. I sorta thought they were picking up people... For... No reason...

Like... Why?

Fozzie, I understand.

Gonzo just got in the car and was offered hollywood.

Piggy pushed her way in.


Dah!


PROS: EVERYTHING ELSE!!!

I don't have anything negative to say about The Muppet Movie. It's one of the earliest films I saw as a child, it's the first Muppet film I saw, and I've loved it ever since. The Never Before sequence I think is a little slow and while Frank's/Piggy's singing is rough, I think it's meant to be part of the gag at how bad it is. But I'm willing to overlook that small little lull in the film in an otherwise perfect movie.
