OK to distinct up some confusion about the latest incarnation of “The Muppet Movie” this edition is celebrating the fact that Kermit always a bit green around the gills is 50 years faded. That said I’m completely unimpressed with this edition of a classic family movie. I’ll procure to the reasons why in fair a bit in the meantime here’s a recap of the space for those of you who have forgotten what its about.

Discovered by a huge time agent (Dom DeLuise) playing his banjo among the reeds and lilly pads, Kermit (Jim Henson) moves to Hollywood for fame and fortune. Along the intention he hooks up with Miss Piggy (Frank Oz), Fozzie Possess (Frank Oz) and other Muppets who are looking for their road to the tremendous time. Kermit is pursued by Doc Hopper (Charles Durning) who wants to start a chain of posthaste food frog leg restaurants. He hopes to invent Kermit his company mascot. Along the design Kermit and his friends meet a who’s who of Hollywood’s funniest comedians along the blueprint. Featuring a who’s who list of top notch celebrity talent including Mel Brooks, Madeline Kahnm Richard Pryor, Edgar Bergen, Steve Martin and others, “The Muppet Movie” provided the early template for family films that could also be adult worthy as well.
With sparkling colorful colors “The Muppet Movie” looks solid in this DVD transfer but the film could have dilapidated a bit of restoration. Image clarity and sharpness are not what they could have been as well with an occasional softness that surprised me. Granted, this edition looks better than the Tri-Star release of four years ago but the film really needs to be carefully restored improving the overall image and sound quality. The 5.1 Dolby Digital mix presents dialogue with nice clarity but the music pick up and fair about everything else in the movie’s soundtrack comes across sounding tightly compressed. Again, an overall disappointment even when compared to the previous edition of this movie from four years ago.

I would have belief that a sizable movie would deserve expansive extras. Instead, the best extra from the previous edition (Frawley’s test footage) is missing from this edition. Instead of that we net an underwhelming five runt featurette about Kermit. It’s a destroy of money and station on the DVD. We also come by the usual assortment of Disney previews at the beginning although you can skip them. A brand to Disney–including a plump shroud version of the same movie no longer counts as a special feature
About the only capable thing about this DVD release are the chapters placed throughout the film. It makes navigating to a particular scene fine easy overall but that’s not saying grand in an age where “The Wizard of Oz” gets a deluxe three DVD edition or even the novel “War of the Worlds” a two disc edition. Honestly, it feels like Disney blew it here. I’m not determined they knew what they wanted to establish on the disc and this smells suspiciously like a double dip down the line. Considering the deluxe treatment that Disney recently gave “The Muppet Expose” on DVD, I’m really surprised at how shabbily they treated this classic film.
A classic that receives truly pedestrian treatment, I’d recommend waiting to gawk if a deluxe edition of this film is coming out before buying. If you don’t have the very expedient previous edition of this film on DVD and feel you must have it now by all means feel free to acquire it up. I have the clear feeling you’ll be kicking yourself later however and suggest renting and then taking a wait and view attitude about buying this worn “Special Edition”. Man talk about being green, watching the treatment this classic received on DVD made me sick to my stomach.
I care for the Muppet Movie. Its nods to film noir and buddy films, the music by the unbelievable Paul Williams, the celebrity cameos, the characters–especially Miss Piggy and Fozzie.

Now then, I always watched the Muppets very aware that the movies were working on both the child and adult level, and happily attach in the DVD anticipating my celebrated muppet joke of all: when Kermit walks into a bar after having lost Piggy and says, sadly, “I’ll have a grasshopper, please.”
Great joke! Kids won’t know what a “grasshopper” is or that he is boozing over being stood up–they’ll unprejudiced tune out til the music!
So why did they reduce it from the DVD?

Especially when they kept the visual that Kermit drank alllll the champagne after Piggy left, and Rowlf’s assertion that every night he has “a coupla beers.” This PC thing has gone too far. I train it’s not enough to deduct a whole star–except it’s my all time fave muppet moment.
Oh well, admire the movie. And adore the DVD option of watching it in French, where they have to change Piggy’s trademark “Moi!” to “Me.”
