The Muppet Movie: Careful, this review uses the word "Muppet" 9 times.
The Muppet Movie has the infinite wisdom and charm of a bunch of talking felt creatures interacting, however briefly, with a confusingly diverse range of celebrity cameos. Everytime Kermit the Frog talks to James Corburn, something awesome is necessarily happening. Bob Hope selling Fonzie Bear ice cream while Richard Pryor simultaniously sells Gonzo enough baloons to lift him into the air. Gold. Jim Henson was creating magic. End-of-the-Rainbow grade shit. And sometimes, the Muppets sing amazing songs and it makes me want to be a Muppet. Be made of love and felt. Play the banjo-- or no, fuck it, if I were a Muppet I'd learn to play the piano, so we can finally make that music video for that Ben Folds Five song. You know the one. Anyway, the movie is a lot of fun. Something about the rhythm of Muppet jokes. Kermit has this disbelief in the film's humor, but he's the most hopeful character in any movie ever made. Muppet or non-Muppet.
