The Muppet Movie

The Muppet Movie (Disney+) is a 1979 musical road comedy film, the first theatrical film with the Muppets. It features cameo appearances by Bob Hope, Dom DeLuise, James Coburn, Cloris Leachman, Richard Pryor, Telly Savalas, Edgar Bergen (in his final film appearance before his death), Orson Welles, Carol Kane, Steve Martin, and Mel Brooks, among others. Delightful, a feel-good movie. I rewatch this every once in a while.

  3. OMGoodness! I remember watching this with my son, Dagan, when he was maybe about six or seven years old. Whenever it came on TV the first time. Cute movie! :)

  6. I enjoyed it at the time but I’ve never turned back to it. I more remember the one in 2010 where Amy Adams said they would travel “by map” — we refer to that from time to time.

    1. I don't much like the others that followed, though the Treasure Island and Scrooge ones are wonderful.
