I was in a mood for a muppet movie today (Kerbang has, I think, all of the muppet movies) and borrowed his “Great Muppet Caper.”
Can I just say, this movie is FUCKING AWESOME? I’m actually watching it again. Okay, I’m actually watching the “Miss Piggy it’s you” synchornized swimming bit.
When I was younger, I loved this movie and used to watch it constantly on the Disney Channel (or some other movie).
Now that I’m older, I am AMAZED how they made this movie (because when you’re younger you really can’t appreciate the filmmaking) and made it look so effortless.
I mean, if you watch “The Great Muppet Caper” and “Armaggeddon” back to back, it’s OBVIOUS which film is the better film and which had the more talented actors (i.e. muppets).
I mean, only comic brilliance would try to make a movie where Fozzie and Kermit the Frog would be identical twins (Fozzie has to put on the hat)
Furthermore, which movie needed CGI?
P.S. If you received a drunken note from my roommates, please be advised that you only got a drunken note–I had to smell the constant gas. Ugh.
