What were some of your favorite references in the later 4 Muppet movies? (Muppet Christmas Carol, Muppet Treasure Island, Muppets from Space, and Very Merry Muppet Christmas movie) These are mine:
-In Muppet Christmas Carol, Gonzo takes a frozen Rizzo into Fozziwig's party and while he's walking in he sees a chicken and follows her with his eys as if he's checking her out :stick_out_tongue: :smile:
-In Muppets from Space when Bunsen shows the gang about the invisibility spray rubber ducky he says "the effect is sadly temporary" and then Beaker says "sadly temporary" (in Meep speech :stick_out_tongue: ) just like in The Muppet Movie.

I also love in MFS the whole sadly temporary thing. I also like in AVMMCM when it shows Doc Hopper's Froglegs. That was pretty cool how they used that to show what the world would be like without Kermit. I got pretty excited when I saw that because I wasn't expecting it.

How about this? It was GREAT to see the EM bus again in MFS, I hope one day it will wind up in the hands of Henson to be used again.

I don't know if this counts but the line that Statler and Waldorf say on the porch in MFS was a line they used on TMS.

janicegroupie: yeah, that was cool when they showed the Doc Hopper's Frog Legs, and I also liked the little plaque that said "to the lover's, the dreamer's, and you"
