The Muppets aren’t all “aw shucks” jokes and flying chickens. Back in the day, the Muppets were full of biting, spot-on satire. And this latest trailer from Muppets Most Wanted is no exception, showing everyone who markets film how ridiculous they all look when they use Twitter quotes in their trailers.
For some reason, this gag makes me think of my all time favorite Muppet joke from The Great Muppet Caper.
Girl: “Look, Dad. There’s a bear.”
Dad: “No, Christine, that’s a frog. Bears wear hats.”
Fingers crossed Muppets Most Wanted rekindles some of that old time charm.
