Things we found magical are now expected. IMO. I’m not against CGI- I just think it’s good to point out that some of these early movies had to figure out how to do it IRL #TCMParty #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan
And then Disney put The Lion King on stage. #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan is due a thank you credit in Playbill. #TCMParty #TCM #TCMWEEKENDMOVIE
This is what I mean. The minister (who is a real minister BTW) plays completely straight with them.

You just forget these are puppets w/no cgi. 😁💜 #TCMParty #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan
My brother loved the Swedish Chef. 💜 #TCMParty #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan
It’s the Sesame Street gang! #TCMParty #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan
The Swedish Chef will never not make me laugh.

This just makes my heart smile. 💜 😊 #TCMParty #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan
The advertising frogs at the stage door absolutely confused about what’s going on 😄 #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan #TCMParty

I love the "Muppet-verse", mostly because of the deluge of puns, sight gags, pop culture references, etc.
The steady optimism is another draw.
I always think the old geezers are going to come out on the balcomy at The El Capitan 🤭 #TCMParty #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan
Kermit working in advertising with amnesia is funny.
#TCMParty #TheMuppetstakeManhattan
Bambi was more traumatic. 😉 🥺 #TCMParty #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan
I love how #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan turns into a Madison Avenue version of Being There - with frogs! - for 10 minutes. #TCMParty
Then decades later Illumination Entertainment releases SING about singing animals that put on a show. There’s a lot I can say about Muppets v. Animation - but no need 😉 #TCMParty #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan
I never got why a Muppet would need hospitalization. I was 9 or 10, tho. #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan #TCM #TCMParty #TCMWeekendMovie
I can just imagine every kid in the theater watching that scene when Kermit gets hit by a taxi looking at their mom with tears in their eyes.
Talk about childhood trauma.

I was not ready for the third act plot twist in #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan at the age of 6, boy howdy #TCMParty
James Coco’s delivery of “Doggie toys!” is living rent-free in my head 🤪 #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan #TCMParty
Brooke Shields was still going to Princeton at this point so she was right across the river (relatively)
#TCMParty #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan
We all need some Muppets these days 💜 #TCMParty #TheMuppetsTakeManhattan
Spinal Tap wasn't nominated but I still think the Academy got it right.
