I was 20! I went to it by myself on opening day. I think I walked to the theater cuz it was a nice day. Back then the Muppets were a guilty pleasure of mine. I was in the "They're too kidish for me." stage! Now one of the first things people know about me is my love for the Muppets.
As for the movie. I didn't dig it at first. I liked it, but it was missing something. I missed the original songs. I missed Camilla. I had NO idea who Pepe was cuz I didn't remember much about Muppets Tonight. At the time I liked it better than Treasure Island and Christmas Carol just cuz they were playing themselves. I missed that. NOW-A-DAYS I love it! I appreciate it a lot more. I think they appeal to more the "college aged" kids instead of the littler ones just for nostalgia. I've gotten the majority of my friends into the Muppets.

Think of how we feel now when we watch the early episodes of TMS and Piggy's voice switches from Frank to Richard within the same episode at times.
True, but that was before the character's voice had solidified; they were performing in different octaves. Jacobson's Piggy voice is much closer to Oz's.

Going back to who should direct the next Muppet movie... I would think Bill would be a good choice. I liked Kirk's work on VMC and MOZ but very much of it seemed scattershot and jumbled. I'd really like to see what Bill can do behind the camera.

Also, SarahOnBway, I totally agree with you about Eric. But concerning John and Bill... they haven't had nearly as much experience with other characters as Eric has had with Frank's. I think that after a while they'll be just as good as he is with other characters.

Well, John and bill might have been doing thoes characters for a long time now. Just not in the public or in on in specials.

But I agree that they should let bill step up and direct the nexy movie.
