May be Disney figures that the Box Office Numbers were so poor for MMW that they would try a different Marketing strategy next time around with a Theatrical movie, basically don't tell anybody we started Filming ?

Of course it's not. We would know by now if it were. Never heard of a big studio like Disney shooting a movie without anyone noticing.

It's probably for something online, or something for TV.

well Like I said May be they did not like the Box Office numbers and wanted to try a different Marketing strategy, I know a big long shot but Hey, who knows? :insatiable:

I would think there would be a Press release for a TV show as well?

That's not how movies work. I've never heard of a movie being produced in secret, except for well, Strange Magic, but that's only because Disney was dumped with doing that stupid movie.

More instagram photos! I'll start with what is probably the most interesting one, which appears to be a part of the Swinetrek set!

And, of course, a few more of the band. And, this time around, we can finally see that Janice and Floyd are present.

Debatable as it is if they should have another movie or not (which most fans can agree they want another), there's no doubt the Muppets should be keeping up on Youtube.

Click bait vs. 10 bucks a head (or more) movie, click bait's gonna win every time. It's cheaper to produce and easier to get the word out. Casual fans who can't be bothered to see 90 minutes of the Muppets because they feel they've outgrown them on that level will love seeing a wacky, nostalgic trip that lasts 5 or less. And no matter all the talk about MMW not making that much money, they didn't exactly rush to create a lot of viral videos after the successful enough to be called a success TM film, either. And while it's debatable if that's why MMW underperformed, it's baffling that they had so much success with Bohemian Rhapsody only to not keep that up.
