A Modern Muppet X-Mas
I first saw this movie last year on NBC and was very pleasantly surprised. I’m not really a big Muppet fan. It’s not that I don’t like them, it’s just that I’ve never watched them that much. So why was I interested in this movie in the first place? I’m not really sure. Maybe because Triumph the Insult Comic Dog was in it! Nevertheless, I had some good laughs watching this last year.Fast forward to the present time and I saw this on sale, so I had to get it. Watching it a second time, I’m a little more conscious about concerns that some scenes were too “adult” for this movie. For example, the whole rave scene might get people upset where lovable Scooter is grinding in a cage!! Another example is the character Pepe who swoons over Joan Cusack’s character and uses the terms, “sexy” and “topless.”
So I could kind of see how people can get upset with this movie, but I definitely don’t think it tarnishes what the Muppets are all about, unlike what’s being done in ‘The Cat in the Hat’ movie. The Muppets still provide family-friendly laughter and moments to people of all ages. Fozzie’s Grinch scene was pretty funny, Pepe steals the show, the spoof on ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ is great, and I like the jabs at NBC’s corporate synergy (I’m a business major and a former Disney employee, so I know this stuff well!) I also found the song between Gonzo and Kermit, “Everyone Matters,” to be very nice and sweet.
Overall, this is a very nice and funny Christmas movie. I wouldn’t necessarily label this as a classic or really all that memorable though, because honestly, are we going to remember some of their references (Scrubs, Ricky Martin, and Moulin Rouge) ten years from now? By the way, I’ve never seen Moulin Rouge, so that spoof went way over my head!
This movie is good for the current time period, but I’m afraid it won’t live on much longer unlike other Christmas classics (Rudolph, A Christmas Story, Mickey’s Christmas Carol). Now is a good time to see it though.
