The Muppet Movie

(7/1/07. YBCA w/Elliot & Erin. 3:00p)

1) Kermit, by himself, singing, "Life's like a movie. Write your own ending." Gave me goosebumps.

2) When Miss Piggy pulled Kermit down into the bushes, where the camera couldn't see them any more, I definitely had some disturbing images running ...(read through my poor little head.

3) It's always good to see a little Steve Martin from back when he was just about the funniest guy on the planet.

4) Plus: Richard Pryor? James Coburn?! Orson Welles!!

5) I wish I had never known about Gonzo's relationship with his chicken. I grew up on Muppet Babies, and being a chickenlover is not where I wanted to see Gonzo go... I'll try to remember him floating majestically away with his balloons instead.
