Krang 1 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 It's a shame that Jerry Nelson and Frank Oz have pretty much retired from voicing the muppets. Floyd sounded awful in that trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,269 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Some Dissatisfied ‘The Muppets’ Performers Considered Taking Their Names Off The MovieIt seemed almost too good to be true. Buoyed with clever, parody driven teaser spots, an effusive, infectious energy and full-length trailers that really differed, who would’ve thought that behind the scenes, Disney is not only worried about the upcoming franchise reboot, but there is also dissent among some longtime performers about the approach writers Jason Segel and Nicholas Stoller have taken with the brand. THR has an excellently detailed look at the hand-wringing behind the scenes, but it’s Frank Oz‘s recent comments to Metro that synthesize the struggle between the old and new guard.http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/archives/some_dissatisfied_the_muppets_performers_considered_taking_their_names_off_/# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hlao-roo 389 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Just got back from watching The Muppets. Had a blast -- lots of great musical numbers, Chris Cooper is perfect as the villain, and Walter, the new Muppet, works. A few of the voices are indeed a bit off, most notably Kermit's, but not distractingly so.All in all, I think Muppet fans should be pleased.Oh, and one more thing: Mah Na Mah Na.
