Oh man, I love it. See, this is what bugs me about the trailers...none of the real movie shows through. The subtle oddball indie movie stuff.

Um so the oil guy is Edward G. Robinson? :wink:

But anyway, that was pretty cute actually.

You know what makes me think this will be good? I didn't even really think about Walter as a puppet.

I remember in 2002 on here, I joked how they should have an indie comedy or rom-com that just so happened to have Pepe in it or another Muppet. No weird angle, just treat him as an actual person

Oh yeah, I didn't even notice that until you said it...I didn't either.

I did in that other clip, because I found the voice/puppet jarring together, having not really seen him speak before. I like that they are showing not-too-spoilery parts...although I guess we now know who discovers Tex's plan (like we hadn't already guessed)

That scene gives me high hopes for the film. It got good by Walter's bad guy impersonation and just awesome by the end. Can't wait to see the film.
