Your Thoughts: Muppets From Space

[The King Pepe]

Yeah its one funny movie alright, its brilliant when rizzo gets tortured with the other lab rats.

Pepe stole too much screen time.

Has anyone noticed that in the Muppet's Lab scene Bunsen says

"The effect is sadly temperary,"

and Beaker echoes

"Very Sadly Temperary" (in Meepish)

They also did that in the very first Muppet Moive!!! Did anyone notice that?

Pepe stole too much screen time.

When I saw the movie last week, I found not. He doesn't have that much screentime. I think they choose a good selection of characters to search for Gonzo. Though I still think Pepe and Seymour still are a duo, and should never have been torn apart.

 

[The King Pepe]

Which ones seymour?

The fat elephant from MT. has never been seen again.

Muppets Tonight is not a muppet movie. Muppets Tonight was a tv series and you can't get it on DVD.

They stole several old jokes for MFS. Most memorable was in the basement, taken from TMM:

"But the effects are sadly temporary." *Sigh.*
"Mamly Memormary." *Sigh.*

The "Life on this planet" joke got past me.

When I saw Muppets from Space the first time in the theaters, I walked out sadly disappointed. What really chaffed my hide was the fact that there were none, 0, zilch, nada original songs. That has been one of the trademarks of Muppet Movies since the first one, the great songs. With Muppets from Space, we got a whole ton of songs which were popular when the Muppet Show was actually on. That is the one thing I would have definately changed.

Upon second and third review (just within the last 3 months), I have found MFS a little funnier and not too bad of a movie. It's still my least favorite of all the Muppet movies, but it's better than Barney.

Watching dirt grow is better than Barney.

The music fact you stated was also my problem with it, but I could over look it for a good story, which I felt we got.
