Grumpy Old Men on Films

The Disney synergy is working for the Muppets once again, this time giving them a weekly internet gig. The Disney owned website Movies.com, now features a weekly video segment called "Statler & Waldorf: From the Balcony". The 8-minute segment (available for viewing in 2 files sizes for Windows Media, Real Player, or Quicktime) features the classic Muppet hecklers commenting on current films hitting theatres; even Pepé pops in with a review of new DVD releases. Not only do viewers get a look at upcoming films and DVD, but they also get a good laugh from the Muppets. So surf over to the From the Balcony section of Movies.com and watch this week's clip. This is a great use of the characters and gives them a new opportunity to shine, and grow their fan base. So check out this weeks video, and enjoy!
