As the fanfare -- whistled, as if by Walter -- crescendos, we hear STATLER (V.O.) Well, we can go home now. WALDORF (V.O.) But the movie's just starting! STATLER (V.O.) Yeah, but we've already seen the best part! WALDORF (V.O.) I thought the best part was the end credits! They CHORTLE as the credits FADE TO BLACK A familiar voice -- one we've heard many times before, and will hear again later in the movie... MR. EXCELSIOR (V.O.) And lo, there came a day like no other, when the unlikeliest of heroes united to face a challenge greater than they could possibly imagine... STATLER (V.O.) Being entertaining? WALDORF (V.O.) Keeping us awake? MR. EXCELSIOR (V.O.) Look, do you guys mind? I'm foreshadowing here. Ahem. Greater than they could possibly imagine... CUT TO: 2. THE MUPPET SHOW COMIC BOOK By Roger Langridge. WALTER reads it, whistling the Marvel Studios theme to himself, until KERMIT All right, is everybody ready for the big pitch meeting? INT. MUPPET STUDIOS The shout startles Walter, who tips over backwards in his chair out of frame, revealing KERMIT THE FROG, emerging from his office into the central space of Muppet Studios. The offices are dated, a little shabby, but they've been thoroughly Muppetized into a wacky, cozy, creative space. SCOOTER appears at Kermit's side, and we follow them through the office.

  • A BUG's LIFE the Muppets
    TheA BUG’S Muppets LIFE Synopsis On vacation in Los Angeles, Walter, the world’s biggest Muppet fan, his brother Gary and Gary’s girlfriend, Mary, from Smalltown, USA, discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman to raze Muppet Studios and drill for the oil recently discovered beneath the Muppets’ former stomping grounds. To stage a telethon and raise the $10 million needed to save the studio, Walter, Mary and Gary help Kermit reunite the Muppets, who have all gone their separate ways: Fozzie now performs with a Reno casino tribute band called the Moopets, Miss Piggy is a plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, Animal is in a Santa Bar- bara clinic for anger management, and Gonzo is a high-powered plumbing magnate. Discussion Questions • Gary and Walter are brothers, even though Gary is a person and Walter is a Muppet. Do you think it would have been hard growing up together and being so different, particularly as Walter is never any taller on the wall chart they keep at their home? • Toward the end of the film there is a key song that involves Gary and Walter. What do you think they are singing about when they mention being a man or being a Muppet? How do you think they end up realizing and embracing their true identities? • Gary tells Walter that the point of growing up is to be whoever or whatever you want to be. Who do you want to be? What kind of person do you want to be? Is that the same as what profession you want to have when you grow up? • There is a character in the film who is an executive for the television station.

  • The Muppets with a Headline That Reads “Who’S the Funniest Muppet.” There Is Also a Row of Framed Photos, the First Is of a Young Boy with a Nondescript Brown Puppet
    The Greatest Muppet Movie of All Time by Jason Segel and Nicholas Stoller 10-30-09 TITLE UP: THE FOLLOWING IS BASED ON A TRUE STORY FADE IN: A series of shots of a pristine, classic American small town. Something straight out of Pleasantville. --People walk down the street and say smiling goodmornings as they pass each other. --A milkman drops off milk to a white picket fenced house --Children ride their bikes to school -- People exit a bakery with fresh rolls. TITLE UP: SMALLTOWN, USA INT. BEDROOM - MORNING We pan through a bedroom who’s walls are covered with posters. Muppet posters. Muppet newspaper clippings. A framed photo of a Time magazine cover which features Kermit standing in front of the rest of the Muppets with a headline that reads “Who’s the funniest Muppet.” There is also a row of framed photos, the first is of a young boy with a nondescript brown Puppet. We follow the row of photos as the boy grows progressively older, his puppet always by his side, ageless. We reach the last photo of the row and the boy is now thirty, arm around his puppet. We continue to pan and find the man, Gary, laying in bed peacefully asleep, a contented smile on his face. THE ALARM GOES OFF. Gary lazily wakes up. GARY Walter! Wake up! Today’s the day we go to Los Angeles!!! We widen to reveal Gary’s brown puppet asleep in a smaller bed next to Gary ala Ernie and Bert. WALTER (waking excitedly) Los Angeles!!! I can’t believe it!! We’re gonna get to go to Muppet Studios right!? You promised!? You weren’t pranking me right!!? If you were pranking me that’s a really mean prank!!! 2.
