Oh my goodness gracious, there has been a preview screening of The Muppets and people are writing about it. No spoilers (it’s been a spoilery day, I know), but here is just one initial reaction on Tough Pigs:
There are original songs. There are a ton of cameos (I know — big surprise), and many of them go by so quickly that the old cliché of “blink and you might miss them” actually applies. The puppets look great. The performances are wonderful. And Walter absolutely belongs to this world.
And now for the big question: “Was it any good?” Yes, yes it was. It was all kinds of good.
The next few months are going to be pretty exciting.
