Disney has just announced that 2011′s breakout smash The Muppets will hit DVD and Blu-ray on March 20, 2012.
This was a terrific film that sadly did not get recognized at the Golden Globes. However, our team couldn’t speak more highly about The Muppets epic return. We also have a tendency to sing the Man or a Muppet song weekly around the office.
The Muppets: A Funny, Sweet and Triumphant Return Of Everyone’s Favorite Entertainers
Due to the popularity of The Muppets comeback, Kermit the Frog decided to issue a public statement on the release.
“Blu-ray is a great way to bring the Muppets into your home without having to worry about cleaning up after us,” said Kermit the Frog, commenting on the announcement. “And the behind-the-scenes extras are a revealing tell-all look at what it took to bring our movie to the big screen. It’s a must-see for fans of bloopers, flubs and slip-ups – which pretty much describes our act.”
For some reason, even when I imagine Kermit saying this in my head, I can’t help but think that some corporate spokesman came up with statement.
Miss Piggy however made a more true-to-self statement, “Now you can watch moi whenever you want! Ooh! Lucky vous!”
BONUS FEATURES
The Muppets Blu-ray include a groundbreaking industry first — ‘Disney Intermission,’ a hilarious all-new feature that allows viewers to press Pause on their remote control and watch as the Muppets take over the screen and entertain until the movie resumes playing. The release also includes “Explaining Evil: The Full Tex Richman Song,” an extended version of the rollicking rap song by villain Tex Richman (Academy Award® winner Chris Cooper) who provides the hilarious backstory of why he hates the Muppets. Audio commentaries with screenwriter and star Jason Segel, director James Bobin and screenwriter Nicholas Stoller are also included.
