Interesting.......

Thanks for the reprint of the article Phil. I found it really interesting. More so by seeing the "edge" they are trying to put into the movie. I'm a little leering about the egg nog chugging Animal and the cage dancing Scooter, but I have a feeling it won't be that bad, and its a great ploy to get folks to watch the movie.

The best part about the article was the fact they pointed out the Muppet gang are still "profitable" a big deal in the world of Hollywood.

the bit with scooter at a rave seems funny although scooter doesn't strike me as the type who goes to clubs and stuff like that

I disagree with the scooter opinion. though I don't know that scooter of 1975 would do it, I think you really need to put a character of his age in a more modern situation. I think he would. Youth culture.

Personally, I'd like to see Sam the Raver Eagle as a Pallisades figure. :big_grin:
