Muppet Holiday Menu Description 4
Muppet Christmas Carol Menu
This menu is inspired directly from the movie. Snow falls across the composition. Scrooge appears from far away; head to toe in the center of the frame. The Muppet Central greeting eclipses him and morphs into Merry Christmas in white letters trimmed with red. Gonzo, in his top hat, pops into frame left of the greeting, Rizzo, in his top hat, pops in to the right of it.
From left to right: The cloaked Ghost of Christmas Future fades in on rollover in front of a fenced graveyard. Next to this area is the penguin’s skating area. Miss Piggy Cratchit is seen very small just beside it. There is an archway above two tiny penguins. Upon rollover a larger penguin in a red cap and yellow scarf skates by in the foreground. Next to this is a lamp post next to a building with a wreath and garland adorning it. There’s also a snowman out front. Upon rollover the lamp lights up and Cratchet Kermit slides out into view. He is holding out his top hat and Tiny Tim Robin, who is holding out his crutch, on his shoulder. On rollout they slide back behind the lamp post disappearing. Upon rollover of Gonzo, he ducks a little and his eyes widen while Bean Bunny pops out behind his shoulder.
Upon rollover of Rizzo, he crouches and the Marley ghosts Statler and Waldorf fade in and float above him with their chains and semi-transparency. There are more of the city buildings exposed with a Christmas tree, moon, carolers and Fozziewig very tiny in the doorway of his building. Upon rollover the ethereal floating of the angelic Ghost of Christmas Past, draped in a white gown, fades and flows into frame. Next to her on rollover, the bearded Ghost of Christmas Present steps into frame from behind a wall. He disappears with a twinkling colored light effect on rollout. The red brick wall on the far right of the menu frame has a hole where three members of a mouse family emerge on rollover. A girl mouse is in the center with an empty green bowl.
Again, this captures much of the cold, creepy yet fun aspects of the motion picture.
