Mouse House Memories: Muppet*Vision 3D

cindy — Mon, 30 Sep 2013 04:34:22 +0000

I LOVE The Muppets! I watched the very first Sesame Street episode at kindergarten in 1969 and I have loved The Muppets ever since. One of my favorite attractions at Disney’s Hollywood Studios is Muppet*Vision 3D. I know it is quirky, silly and old technology but the show makes me smile every time. I love the theming of the building inside and out.

Inside, in the queue area is also quite nice…don’t forget to look for the key under the mat!

In my opinion the Muppet*Vision 3D pre-show is the best pre-show on property. It is filled with classic jokes and gags and includes tap dancing Gonzo, the 3 D’s, Sam Eagle and Rizzo Rat as Mickey Mouse!

After the pre-show you enter the theater…move all the way to the end of your row to make room for the guests entering behind you, don your 3D glasses and sit back to enjoy the show. At no time with Kermit, Fozzie and the gang stoop to any cheap 3D tricks (hee hee). Yes, we can quote the entire show…and sometimes we do .

If you haven’t seen Muppet*Vision 3D in a long time…or if you’ve never seen it make sure you stop by on your next visit to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, you’ll be glad you did.

The Muppets…Again

cindy — Thu, 07 Feb 2013 11:01:29 +0000

Disney’s “The Muppets …Again!” takes the entire Muppets gang on a global tour, selling out grand theaters in some of Europe’s most exciting destinations, including Berlin, Madrid and London. But mayhem follows the Muppets overseas, as they find themselves unwittingly entangled in an international crime caper headed by Constantine—the World’s Number One Criminal and a dead ringer for Kermit—and his dastardly sidekick Dominic, aka Number Two, portrayed by Ricky Gervais. The film stars Tina Fey as Nadya, a feisty prison guard, and Ty Burrell as Interpol agent Jean Pierre Napoleon.

Disney’s “The Muppets … Again!” is directed by James Bobin and produced by David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman. Bobin co-wrote the screenplay with Nicholas Stoller, who is also executive producer with John Scotti. Featuring music from Academy Award®-winning songwriter Bret McKenzie, “The Muppets … Again!” hits the big screen March 21, 2014.

The Muppets were Honored with a Star on the Hollywood Wocka Wocka of Fame

Yesterday, March 20, 2012, the world-renowed Muppets received a star on the Hollywood Walk (“Wocka Wocka”) of Fame from the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce in celebration of the release of Disney’s “The Muppets” on Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD. The celebration was emceed by Chamber President and CEO Leron Gubler, with special guest speakers Rich Ross, Chairman, The Walt Disney Studios and Lisa Henson, CEO, The Jim Henson Company. Several Muppets were on hand to receive the star including Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Animal, Pepe, Sweetums, and Walter, the newest Muppet, who made his debut in Disney’s 2011 film. The Muppets’ star is the 2,466th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and is located in front of the historic El Capitan Theatre.

As I stated above, Disney’s “The Muppets” came out on Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD yesterday also. I picked my copy of the Wocka, Wocka Value Pack last night at Target on sale for $24.99 and I had my $5.00 off Disney Movie Rewards coupon so that was a great deal on the Blu-ray, DVD, Digital copy, and a downloadable soundtrack! We didn’t get to see the movie in the theater, so last night was our first viewing. In my opinion, this was exactly what a Muppet come-back movie should be. I laughed and I cried. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie and I can’t wait to watch all of the cool bonus features. If you haven’t seen it yet, go get it! You won’t regret enjoying some time with the lovable Muppets and their timeless humor.
