At the Movies: The Muppets

The Hubby and I watched the new Muppet movie this week. Having grown up watching muppet movies and Muppets Tonight on TV I have to say this movie did not disappoint. I love everything about it from the staged musical numbers to the pseudo 50's styling and the tongue in cheek humor.

The film tells the story of Walter a Muppet growing up in Smalltown with his brother Gary (Jason Seagal). Walter and Gary are avid Muppet fans growing up so when they get the chance to visit the Muppet Theatre on a trip to LA (along with Garys long suffering neglected girlfriend Mary played by Amy Adams) they jump at the chance. However when Walter inadvertently finds out that rich oil baron Tex Richman (Gary Cooper) plans to buy the dilapidated theatre and demolish it to dig for oil underneath Walter, Gary and Mary go on a roadtrip to get the band back together reunite the Muppets and put on a telethon to raise the $10,000,000 the Muppets need to buy the theatre.

One of my favourite things about the movie was all the gorgeous outfits Amy Adams got to wear so here are a few shots of them:
