If he lived near the bay, does that make him Jason Baygel?

Mmm...baygels!

I think this thread has been both muffined and baygeled. Let's get back to talking about Jason Baygel's Muffin Movie.

...and pass the cream cheese.

I freaked out for a second when I read the last post and thought it had something to do with Michael Bay directing a Muppet movie. Now THAT would be . . . well . . . something.

In related news, a recent news story suggests that Zach Galifianakis is cameoing the new Muppet movie, according to Robert Downey Jr. during interviews for "Due Date." I actually love this idea. I need to see him interacting with Animal!

Well, it wouldn't be terrible, but it would completely focus on Crazy Harry! :crazy:

Seconded. Yay! It's actually 90% happening now.

Yup!

I wish that the Muppets Studio would have mentioned it on Twitter though, it would have been a good way to generate excitement.

I guess they're trying to keep a low profile while the movie's in production. Everything we've heard about the film was leaked via third party sources. Actually, it's like that for most movies.

Sweet! Zach was on my list of "who should have a cameo" actors that I wrote up. I had a feeling he'd be in it. Im sure a lot of the familar Segal/Stoller and Apatow crew will be in it too.
