You’d think since I am a huge Muppets fan I would love this movie. But, sadly, I never even wanted to see it. I loved Pigs in Space bits on the late ’70s classic The Muppet Show, and when I heard there was a Muppets space movie, I was dying to see it.
Then I heard it wasn’t going to be Pigs in Space. Worse still, it had nothing to do with space. But, Madison and I were in our favorite spot in South Florida Tate’s Comics and wearing her Miss Piggy Valentine’s Day dress, she convinced me to give it a shot.
We watched a few episodes of Bravest Warriors on YouTube and then we popped in the DVD. It was then that I remembered why I never saw this movie twenty years ago.
Listen as we discuss questions like:
- Was this the original idea for the movie?
- Why didn’t they go after more Star Wars type jokes?
- Is it Ms. Piggy, Miss Piggy, or Mrs. Piggy?
- Why isn’t David Arquette in every Muppet Movie?
- The SpaceX mission to the moon!
- Is Disney actually trying to take over the world?
- Can we hire that Office Bear?
