VMC = Drama?

I was just thinking about VMC and that after the film got into the Kermit-less universe the film suddenly changed from comedy to drama and noting happening was very funny in it (or is it just me, I mean Rizzo on "Fear Factor" and big :eek: but was funny but the rest was just sad). Would you consider the rest, a drama?

Many of the best comedies use a dramatic theme, so I would still classify it a comedy.

For instance, Bowfinger, The Muppet Movie, even Men in Black all had dramatic themes.

It's called a dramedy or coma. They mix a lot. But I think that there were plenty of funny moments in there. Gonzo and his dancing brick, the bouncers, Piggy being a telephone psycic, etc. Many funny parts, but also a lot of dramatic and sad parts. That was the point of that part though.
