Muppet movie screenit1/31/2024 There’s the Top 7, now what should be in the Top 10? Further proof that this song holds up is actually smack dab in the middle of The Muppet Telethon during The Muppets, and it's also 2 for 2 on making me tear up. But who can deny it? It's sweet, meaningful and a great way to prove the Muppets have a place on the big screen (it opens The Muppet Movie). Recap: Kermit the Frog sings the perfectly sweet song "Rainbow Connection" at the swamp with a banjo at his side. "Rainbow Connection" in The Muppet Movie (1979) Any time the Muppets can reference the script, or that they are currently making the movie I'm watching. Reason: "Listen, nothing is going to happen, this is just the opening credits." That's what Kermit says to start things off, and to let Fozzie know he doesn't have to be afraid. Recap: The second Muppet movie begins with Animal doing his thing and then Kermit, Fozzie and Gonzo noticing the credits while riding a hot air balloon. Opening Credits to The Great Muppet Caper (1981) Yes, most of my favorite moments with the Muppets don't involve this pig. I remember watching this film as a kid and thinking the Muppets were in some serious trouble. She's an egomaniac who seems to force Kermit into some tough spots. Reason: I'm not a huge fan of Miss Piggy. Miss Piggy, on a motorcycle, to the rescue. Recap: After the mock baseball game in which Beeker is the pitcher and Lew Zeland is the batter, there's a moment when it doesn't look good for Kermit and the gang. Miss Piggy saves the day in The Great Muppet Caper (1981) Seeing Animal tossed around from side to side at the feet of Coleman is just another reason to love the visual magic of the Muppets.ģ. When the cops come, Martin grabs Camilla the Chicken and then Gonzo, taking them hostage as he tries to escape. Reason: I love seeing the bottom half of the Muppets. Turns out he's a con-artist named Murray Plotsky and he's got to make a run for it from police. Producer Martin (Coleman) wants the Muppets to give him money. Recap: The Muppets head to Manhattan to make it on Broadway. Dabney Coleman makes a run for it in The Muppets Take Manhattan (1984) Just think of the opportunity for a performance.Ĥ. I am desperately hoping for a "Best Original Song" nomination at the Oscars. It should be my morning alarm, because it's impossible to hate the world when you have "Life’s a happy song, when there’s someone by my side to sing along" in your head. Uncle Deadly, newly reformed, announces the song, and everyone joins in. We all know fun isn't allowed to last forever. Recap: We've heard the song once before, but now all of the Muppets join in the singing of "Life's A Happy Song Finale." "Life's A Happy Song Finale" - The Muppets (2011) This also reminds me I should be saying, "Don't you want to smell the bottle cap" more often. I wouldn't appreciate Martin as much if I hadn't grown up with the Muppets. I'm convinced the Muppets helped teach me intelligent, layered humor. He killed it on "The Muppet Show" (my personal favorite guest star) and also nails his perfectly pitched humor in The Muppet Movie. No one human fits better with the Muppets than Steve Martin. Miss Piggy is all dressed up, but they aren't the stars in this scene. Reason: Kermit is donning one of his classic outfits (a red suit). He is killing the chance for Kermit and Miss Piggy to enjoy their date, though they don't seem to notice. Recap: Steve Martin plays Insolent Waiter. Honeydew's reaction when Kermit asks them all into the cabin. He reads off every name imaginable in a nice pirate spoof. ![]() Reason: Not shockingly, we're starting this list without The Muppet Movie, The Great Muppet Caper or Muppets Take Manhattan. Recap: Sam the Eagle announces the ship's crew to Kermit the Frog. Sam the Eagle gives roll call in Muppet Treasure Island (1996) I am thankfully not including Muppets in Space, It's A Very Muppets Christmas Movie and The Muppets' Wizard of Oz.įYI, I'm currently listening to Muppets: The Green Album thanks to Spotify.ħ. I wish I could include The Muppets Christmas Carol. Let's look back on all of the Muppet movies as I list my TOP 7 Muppet Movie Moments. I saw it again over the weekend, and if I could (I don't allow myself to do this) I'd re-score it a 9/10. I really like The Muppets, in theaters now. It's time to meet my favorites on the Muppet List tonight! Ladies and Gentlemen, It's The Muppet TOP 7! It's time to list the movies.
