Just to confirm: this is definitely the theatrical cut of the film (ie, it does not include "When Love Is Gone".

The running time on the sleeve is incorrect - the film on the disc runs to 82 minutes, not the 86 stated on the sleeve.

Other than that, at least it's anamorphic widescreen this time...

I have just watched it. Im no expert, but the sharpness and colours seem really good. Its good to see in widescreen too, looking out for Muppets who were out of shot in the original releases.

The Backstage Disney feature is OK too. Profiling Gonzo. It has interviews with Kermit, Animal, Miss Piggy, Fozzie and Sam Eagle too. Also shows some nice still images of Gonzo. However when it talks about his girlfriend Camilla, it shows loads of pictures of him with the 'real' Brown Hen used in S2 of The Muppet Show. Miss Piggy comments.......'' Gonzo and Camilla!! I thought Prince Charles married her''!!
Also, they are going backwards to the question of What is Gonzo? Has Disney people not seen Muppets From Space, just cos they may not own the rights to it, does it mean it doesnt exist and Gonzo is once again a .......Whatever??

:concern:
