"I was talking about it again today, but it might not be a proper part. It might be one of these, what they call 'cameos'," he teased when asked about the film. As for what that might involve, the Django Unchained star was careful not to give too much away. However, it sounds as if it will involve Miss Piggy! "Yeah, I was looking forward to meeting Miss Piggy, but they told me that dancing with Miss Piggy for example is almost impossible because she's totally operated by puppeteers and you have to dance with someone where there's actually a real person inside.

Heard/read good stuff about the movie, rented it and it sucked. Was really, really trying to enjoy it because I love the Muppets and grew up watching the show and the movies. The great reviews seem purely driven on nostalgia, not good film making.

Muppets RULE! The muppets have connections to Star Wars, Superman, Wonder Woman, James Bond and everything in between. If you can't appreciate them then...Well.. Enjoy the sound of your heart shriveling up and dying.
