Love the cover of "The Muppet Movie." What? No Mickey Mouse next to Kermit? Well, maybe he'll make an appearance in the BACKSTAGE DISNEY extra.

Idiots. They're also beginning to overexpose Pepe - He's becoming the next Elmo.
Wake me up when someone responsible gains control over the Muppets.
Hate the cover art. Hate Pepe.
You guys are being the nexts pain in the necks for being so negitive for every little coment page. Another thing, what's wrong with the cover art? I think they did a good job. It's better than the flat headed Kermit pose.
Fools. You can not overexpose Pepe.
Disney have announced that the press release did not reveal evrything about the dvd in the press release and that the dvds will actually have BOTH widescreen and pan and scan version of the film on them! So we can all be happy!!!!
Has there been any word on why The Muppets Take Manhattan hasn't been included in this set of re-releases?
