Wow, I checked out the Muppets box office history on the-numbers.com. Muppets From Space cost 24 million and pulled in a whopping 16 million. (now this was US only, but did the worldwide gross add up to break even?)

Yikes! I liked that one, too.
Speaking of MFS, I saw newer packaging for it (it's 9.99 everywhere) with green stuff floating in the background. Is that the only difference?

This thread is taking an odd turn, methinks...

:concern:

Back on subject...I can't find my copy of MFS to tell you if my copy matches the older or newer cover art.

The front cover of the regular video and DVD release was the same as the Motion Picture Score. It's a space ship with Fozzie, Kermit, Gonzo, Pepe, Piggy and Animal (with Rizzo hanging on for dear life) sitting in it. There was a release that had the other poster artwork on it. That one is the same as the Movie Soundtrack cover art. I wonder if this new packaging is a new Disney re-release?
