Muppets Again, in Earnest
Entertainment Weekly has the exclusive first image of the new Muppet movie sequel The Muppets…Again! You’ll have to go to their site to see the whole thing, but here’s a small section…(yes, Walter’s back, even if his “brother” isn’t)

Disney also released the official plot synopsis:
Disney’s “The Muppets …Again!” takes the entire Muppets gang on a global tour, selling out grand theaters in some of Europe’s most exciting destinations, including Berlin, Madrid and London. But mayhem follows the Muppets overseas, as they find themselves unwittingly entangled in an international crime caper headed by Constantine–the World’s Number One Criminal and a dead ringer for Kermit–and his dastardly sidekick Dominic, aka Number Two, portrayed by Ricky Gervais
Hmmm….”the World’s Number One Criminal and a dead ringer” for our hero? That sounds familiar. Where have I…?
Oh yeah.

First Tyler Perry cribs liberally on behalf of Madea, now the Muppets?
Y’all, it’s time to acknowledge that Ernest Goes to Jail is the classic you’d never admit to loving while Jim Varney was alive. KnoWhutIMean?
