Interesting. Last year, huh? That sounds like one of the projects mentioned in Toronto at the agency auditions.

It's probably a lame duck now, at least for the time being. I'm not saying I'd be against this, but it sounds too similar to IAVMMC in just simple concept form. More like it would make a good television episode for a Muppet Show then a whole movie.

 

[Luke]

Yeah this idea has been around for years and years. It does kinda seem the most appropriate for a Muppet movie right now though if they are trying to get the whole classic feel back.

 

[CensoredAlso]

It would be interesting, and yes very appropriate. Just have to wait and see if anything happens.

The last thing I want to do after reading this news is complain but when I first heard of this movie a few years ago (right here at MC) I thought it sounded a little too similar to The Muppets Take Manhattan and now that they've made It's A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie it seems even less of an original idea, though this film was proably written first and it has been going round for years so it must be good, I just don't know why they've never used it before. I think I remember having read somewhere a while ago that this film had a very fun Ninja fighting scene.

Something thats also been heard of a few times is "The Cheapest Muppet Movie Ever Made" I don't know how this idea can be played out as a movie but i'd love to know more about it.

Well at least that's something, lets hope we get something good from the Muppets soon.

Muppets Haunted House was also a movie in the works, written originally i think by Greg The Bunny's creator. Seems very Disney'ish but they'd probably water it down. Maybe good as a TV seasonal special.

Doubt these'll happen...maybe the rockumentary

Can you see

"This is Electric Mayhem"

Yikes!

Yes that was another idea I liked. The Muppet family is full of Monsters if done well that one could work. There was also the time travelling one
though that one didn't impress me much.
