Ohhhhhh-hhhhhh, Doc Hopper would foam at the mouth if he saw the newest poster for Jason Segel’s upcoming Muppets movie. The fiendish fast-food magnate (played by Charles Durning) spent the entire 1979 film chasing Kermit as a pitchman for his frogleg dishes, and now look at his little green friend: Kermit has legs! Long legs!
Of course, Kermit and company had legs back then, too, but scenes with Kermit riding a bicycle or Kermit and Fozzie dancing in a saloon were the clunkiest sequences, barely passing the credibility test of a generation ago. “Technology has changed,” Segel told the USA Today. “We’re able to show [the Muppets] doing stuff they hadn’t been able to do before. We’re pretty proud of that.”
The Muppets opens Nov. 23, which might explain the otherwise tepid tagline: “They’re Closer Than You Think.” Or has Segel changed his mind about filming in 3-D?

SWEDISH CHEF IS THE SUPERIOR MUPPET
jus sayin
I loved that movie! I'm sure I have it on vhs somewhere! I now want to watch it...
Of course, when my dresser looks like this half of the time:
It's not too shocking.
/i love The Muppets
Fozzie, Sam, and Bean the Bunny.
(I still sleep with a stuffed fozzie, don't judge!)
But something is weird about that poster. Its either because they look CG or they have legs.
