The Muppet Movie
The Muppet Movie is one of my favorite movies of all time. It's both inspirational as well as fun to watch. Right from the start you are greeted with good clean humor and inspiring songs the whole family can sing along too. From it's on running jokes about Hare Krishna to the "Gone with the Shwinn," comment that Kermit makes...to the quite literal Fork in the road, this movie is loaded with great puns and word play for both the young viewer as well as the adult. Loaded with comedic geniuses, this movie was just brilliantly constructed. It has an awesome musical score that is merged with fun, inspiring and lovable lyrics that you can sing over and over again.
Clearly one of my favorites, as I have blogged about it before...here are some great quotes from the movie:
Movin' right along in search of good times and good news,
With good friends, you can't lose,

Fact is there's nothin out there you can't do
Yeah, even Santa Claus believes in you.

There's not a word yet for old friends who've just met.
Part heaven, part space, or have I found my place?

Why are there so many songs about rainbows?
That's part of what rainbows do.
Rainbows are memories, sweet dream reminders
What is it you'd like to do?
All of us watching, and wishing we'd find it;
I've noticed, you're watching too.
Someday you'll find it, the rainbow connection,
The lovers, the dreamers, and you.

Life's like a movie, write your own ending
Keep believing, keep pretending
We've done just what we set out to do.
Thanks to the lovers, the dreamers, and you.
