You're being too nice to those people. Mistaking Big Bird for Wembley? That's practically a criminal offense? How do you even relate the two? Big Bird is a yellow and feathery bird, while Wembley has no feathers present, and is yellow, but very slightly. How could the two even compare?
If it's not a criminal offense, it should be.

Easy. They only have vague memories of what the Bird looks like.

People wondering how is Robin Kermit's son in MCC when he's really his nephew. Not realizing that The Muppets ARE NOT PLAYING THEMSELVES IN IT!!! :mad:

Adding on to that, I vaguely recall hearing at least one person who thought Robin really was Kermit's son.

Speaking of misnaming, I once watched the Columbia/Tristar version of TMM on DVD with the subtitles on (to clarify misheard lines). And the subtitle-makers goofed: When Kermit talks to Lew Zealand ("I told you, Lew..."), the subtitles misname him as "Luke." Looks like I'm not the only one mishearing lines!
