comment
In the summer of 1979, Jim Henson brought his beloved cast of characters from The Muppet Show to the big screen to tell their (supposed) origin story, or at least a close enough approximation of it. Co-written by Jack Burns and Jerry Juhl and directed by James Frawley, the movie begins with a very meta Cold Opening where the Muppets attend a private screening of their own film, before we see how Kermit was inspired to leave his home in the swamps of the southeastern U.S. and headed to Hollywood — to answer a casting call in hopes of being able to make a career out of "singing and dancing and making people happy".Along the way, he picks up a familiar assortment of friends: Fozzie Bear, a struggling ursine comedian; The Great Gonzo, "prince of plumbers" and aspiring movie star; Miss Piggy, a self-proclaimed "actress/model"; Rowlf, the singing and piano-playing dog; the eccentric inventors Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker; and the psychedelic Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem and their road manager Scooter. Unfortunately, Kermit also attracts the attention of Doc Hopper (Charles Durning), an unscrupulous restaurateur who's dead set on getting Kermit as a spokes-frog for his fried frog-legs stands. Throw in some catchy musical numbers by Paul Williams and an assortment of celebrity cameos, and you've got the makings of a much-loved family film.Followed by The Great Muppet Caper. Not to be confused with its 2011 sequel/reboot The Muppets.

Unraveled Entanglement: The Swedish Chef has the role of operating the film projector, which goes about as well as you would expect. When the film suddenly stops playing and Kermit inquires what happened, the Chef shows up tangled in film and says, "Derversh de flim go flipflipflipflip!"

Creator Cameo: James Frawley, the director, is the waiter at the El Sleezo Cafe. Paul Williams, who wrote "The Rainbow Connection" and all the other songs, is El Sleezo's piano player. The Badass Biker who tosses Fozzie at the El Sleezo Cafe was played by Fozzie's own puppeteer, Frank Oz. Other Henson performers and employees who make cameos also include Steve Whitmire, standing behind Kermit in the audience during the Bogen County Beauty Pageant, and Lisa Henson, who is one of the contestants.

Metallicar Syndrome: Fozzie's Studebaker is painted in psychedelic colors by the Electric Mayhem to help Kermit elude Doc Hopper. The paint job doesn't fool Hopper, but it does hide it surprisingly well when they stop in front of a similarly-painted billboard.

Misplaced a Decimal Point: Kermit tries to buy a car at a rather disreputable dealership, but can't afford any of them, until Sweetums swats a fly, which creates a decimal point in a price tag; the dealer finds himself selling a $1195 car for $11.95, after paying a $12 trade-in on the Muppets' old lemon.

Chekhov's Gun: Who knew The Electric Mayhem would have kept that copy of the screenplay? Also, Bunsen's insta-grow pills. The colorful psychedelic paint job that the Electric Mayhem applies to Fozzie's Studebaker comes in handy a scene later when he pulls in front of a soda billboard that perfectly conceals the Studebaker from Doc Hopper.

Paper-Thin Disguise
 The Muppet Movie / int_48b9731f
comment
Paper-Thin Disguise: After Fozzie is thrown behind the counter at the El Sleazo Cafe and inadvertently takes out the bartender, he pops back up wearing a fake beard, declaring "Drinks on the house!" as a diversion. This works despite all of the patrons seeing Fozzie on stage a minute earlier. The Electric Mayhem's psychedelic paint job on the Studebaker also qualifies. The car is admittedly unrecognizable, but it's still the same model being driven by the quite-notable Kermit and Fozzie, and the rainbow paint-job just makes the car stick out even more than it would've.

Kermit is at first miffed by the change, but it soon proves useful when they elude Hopper by hiding in front of a billboard that happens to match the paint job.

("All I can see are millions of frogs with tiny crutches.") However, Hopper doesn't realize (or just doesn't care) how appalling it is for Kermit, and won't take no for an answer.

Hopper accidentally fires his shotgun into the air when that happens, which bursts the balloons and causes Gonzo to come back down to Earth. As Hopper rants over his latest defeat, Max enjoys some pie.

Knight of Cerebus: Doc Hopper might seem like a rather ineffectual villain, but he's one of the most vile and despicable characters in the entire franchise. He will stop at nothing to get Kermit as a mascot for his commercials, his methods ranging from manipulation to brainwashing to outright murder. And he almost kills Kermit and his friends in the climax, with only the timely intervention of an Insta-Gro Animal saving the Muppets from death.

After Kermit refuses his offers, Hopper relentlessly pursues him for nearly the whole trip, resorting to increasingly vicious means such as holding Piggy for ransom, hiring a Mad Scientist to have him brainwashed, and finally hiring assassins to hunt him down and kill him. Even as Kermit gives a heartfelt speech to try and reason with him, Hopper is unmoved and still orders him killed.

Wrong Turn at Albuquerque: "Movin' Right Along" is one long Running Gag about how terribly lost Kermit and Fozzie get on their drive to California.

comment
Parental Bonus: Some of the jokes are way obscure, though the outside is usually funny enough. For that matter, most of the pop culture references may be too far out-of-date for some viewers to get them today. One for the parents who like classical music is given by Rowlf just before singing "I Hope That Something Better Comes Along" with Kermit. He briefly shows off his amazing skills on the piano and then quips: 6 years later, world famous pianist Vladimir Horowitz would say something similar during the recording of The Last Romantic. After his fingers slip while he's playing at home, he wryly states: "I am Horowitz, not Heifetz!"

Bait-and-Switch: Kermit runs into a patron who's just been tossed from the El Sleazo Cafe, played by famed tough guy James Coburn. When Coburn complains about the El Sleazo being the "meanest, filthiest pest hole on the face of the Earth," the frog suggests he complain to the owner... and Coburn remarks "I AM the owner."

Only in It for the Money: After Max's Heel Realization, he only continues to serve Doc Hopper because Hopper offers to double his percentage (i.e. his share of the company). However, when the Frog Killer is hired, not even money will keep him attached to Hopper, and he flags down the Muppets while disguised as a motorcycle cop simply to warn them about Hopper's plans.

Deconstructed Trope: Kermit gives Hopper a fairly stinging "Reason You Suck" Speech, then tries to appeal to Doc's better nature to convince him to give up his pursuit, calling Hopper's bluff. Unfortunately, Hopper is not bluffing; Kermit misjudged him. There are truly awful human beings in the world, who don't give a damn who they hurt to get what they want, and Hopper is one of them; he demonstrates this by quietly saying, "All right, boys... kill him." If Animal hadn't taken the growth pill and given Doc and his lackeys the scare of their lives, Doc's men would have killed Kermit in cold blood.

Didn't Think This Through: Doc Hopper adamantly refuses to acknowledge the fact that he's essentially trying to force Kermit to endorse the slaughter of his own kind for his fast food brand, calling it "millions of frogs on tiny crutches". While Max begins to sour on the scheme after hearing this, Hopper remains obsessive in his efforts to strongarm Kermit into being his unwilling mascot. The Electric Mayhem's plan to disguise the Studebaker so Doc Hopper wouldn't recognize Kermit and Fozzie seemed clever on paper, unfortunately as later shown, a frog and a bear in a Studebaker of any color still stick out.

Comically Small Bribe: Doc Hopper initially tries to get Kermit to perform in his ads by telling him he could earn $500 "every year."note due to inflation, it becomes more comically small over time, but even when the film was made, that was not a lot; roughly the equivalent of $1300 per year in the 2010s. Fozzie is tempted.

When Kermit asks for the car, Mad Man Mooney is unable to come up with a counter argument and begrudgingly honors the price.

Kermit calls him out on this in the end, and Hopper even realizes that his selfishness will ultimately drive everyone away...but he still orders his cronies to kill the frog.

Shout-Out: Kermit to Piggy: "Frankly, Miss Piggy, I don't give a hoot."note Perhaps not coincidentally, "I don't give a hoot" is alleged to have been one of the alternatives to Rhett's climactic "I don't give a damn" that the makers of Gone with the Wind considered using to avoid falling afoul of the censors in 1939. Doubles as a reference to Woodsy Owl.note "Give a hoot, don't pollute" "Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what's on the other side?" Then, later, "Who said that every wish would be heard and answered when wished on the morning star?" (which makes Disney's purchase of the Muppets in 2004 all the more hilarious)

Character Catchphrase
 The Muppet Movie / int_d308cbb0
comment
Character Catchphrase: Fozzie punctuates all of his jokes with "wocka wocka" during his comedy routine. This was actually created for the movie, since they'd never really needed to write an extended Fozzie standup scene on The Muppet Show, and Frank Oz thought Fozzie would be using some corny Vaudeville shtick in his act like a silly repeated phrase. While it only appeared once on the show, later productions solidified "wocka wocka" as one of his signature traits.

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Sweetums is only known in the film as "Jack". At the very end, Kermit does exclaim "Sweetums, you made it!" when he bursts through the screen. For those that don't get it, his job is moving cars around at Mad Man Mooney's... which he does by lifting them up by the bumper.

Celebrity Cameo: Dozens of them: Mostly human, though at one point Kermit and Fozzie run into Big Bird, who tells them, "I'm on my way to New York City, to try and break into public television." Steve Martin is a cranky waiter serving wine. Elliott Gould is the emcee for a county fair's beauty pageant, and Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy appear as themselves judging same. Ta-da! Richard Pryor is selling balloons. Milton Berle is a used car salesman. Carol Kane keeps showing up when someone says "Myth". ("Yeth?") Mel Brooks is a mad scientist. Dom De Luise is chased by an alligator and sets Kermit off on his journey to Hollywood. Madeline Kahn is a patron at The El Sleezo Cafe with Telly Savalas as her boyfriend, while Paul Williams is the pianist and James Coburn is the owner. Bob Hope sells ice cream cones. Cloris Leachman is secretary to Orson Welles as the Hollywood mogul who gives the Muppets the "Standard Rich & Famous Contract". note  Martin, Berle, DeLuise, Kahn, Coburn, Hope, Leachman, Bergen and McCarthy, and Williams also made guest appearances on The Muppet Show, although Coburn's appearance came after the film. (Pryor was slated to appear in the 1980-81 season, but had to bow out after setting himself on fire in June 1980; he was replaced by series writer Chris Langham.) This was inverted with Welles; Jim Henson, Frank Oz and the Muppets were guest stars on his show instead.

Easily Forgiven: Zigzagged. While Kermit is somewhat quick to forgive Piggy (and so is Rowlf, who has heard of her, but hadn't actually met her), Fozzie and Gonzo are still very angry with her for ditching Kermit as soon as her agent called earlier in the film. They do forgive her eventually, though. Kermit is initially dismissive of her ("Frankly, Miss Piggy, I don't give a hoot!")

comment
Evil Is Petty: Hopper initially wants Kermit to be his spokesman. When it becomes clear to him that Kermit has no intention of doing so, Hopper instead decides to find and kill him solely to deny his talent to anyone else. When Kermit tells him off during their final standoff, he is only further angered and tries to kill all of the Muppets just for helping Kermit evade him.
