Some truly bonkers things that happen in the movie when David Arquette shows Kermit what a world without him would be like:

  • Fozzy is a pickpocket
  • Miss Piggy is a Jamaican fortune teller on a 1-900 line
  • Rizzo the Rat is forced to torment contestants on Fear Factor and then is eaten
  • The Muppet Theater is a sleazy nightclub hosting raves; Scooter dances in a cage and Beaker is a terrifyingly buff bouncer

You left out the best one... River dancing ANIMAL!

And I love his rendition of little drummer boy.

Plus it did the plot of the Disney Muppets film before they did. But since this one was largely forgotten, they got away with it.

A couple things:

  1. Have you seen Meet The Feebles, and

  2. Muppet movies are not to be trusted by their titles.

I once was challenged to make a drinking game in college out of The Frog Prince, and chose "Drink when: the word "prince" is spoken; twice when they break into doing; and do a shot when a Muppet is thrown". Within five minutes the first musical number started, a spastic ditty about the frog prince wherein Muppets were launched for emphasis. By the end of that scene alone, we were down to less than half of the alcohol and two people were already tapping out. I don't remember if we continued the movie/game, but I doubt anyone there does. 🤦🏼‍♂️

But does it top the Cabin Fever scene in Muppet Treasure Island?

I think about this scene every once in awhile and I'm in my mid 30s now ha. I used to rewind the VHS tape and watch it over and over again as a kid.

It’s cheap on Amazon for DVD or Blu-ray. Not sure if anyone has it in stores.

I own this movie! I love it! It has a great Steve Irwin parody too.
