    Absolutely hilarious and good to see a few old faces again :)

    Just spent the last few hours watching all the old clips. Just hit mute during the Honda Civic commercials.

    Sorry WR - I love the Muppets (have season one on DVD) and watched a few of these. But I couldn't stop hearing how "wrong" the voices are even though I really wanted to get into them. Still, for a modern effort it isn't half bad.

    Now who the hell is that prawn guy anyway???

    Ok, ok, I'll admit, I was a little turned off at first by the "wrong" voices too. But I thought the writing was hilarious and well worth the look :)

    My favorite excerpts from the last one:
    Statler: And now on to Jarhead. A movie about the first gulf war starring Jake Jillinholm and Jamie Foxx.
    Waldorf: Thank goodness, another war picture.
    Statler: Yeah I know what you mean. After 30 John Wayne pics...
    Waldorf: Oh, Platoon...
    Statler: Hamburger Hill, Acopolypse Now...
    Waldorf: Goodmorning Vietnam, Full Metal Jacket, Blackhawk Down...
    Statler: Saving Private Ryan, the 3 Kings
    Waldorf: Oh, all the Rambo movies...
    Statler: Yeah, oh, and the delightfully charming Missing in Action series, I had NO IDEA what war was like or what Hollywoods stance on it was...

    Waldorf: Hey, I heard Donald Rumsfeld went to go see Jarhead.
    Statler: Oh yeah? What did he think?
    Waldorf: Well, no one knows, he's still stuck in the theater cause he has no exit strategy!

    And the balconisms are pretty good too :)

    Thanks for looking,

    Heehee...

    The new one's out!

    Get Rich or Die Tryin:
    Statler: In this movie yet another rapper ties to become an actor.
    Waldorf: I know, it's ludicrous.
    Statler: No, it's Fifty Cent.
    Waldorf: Hmm?
    Statler: Oh, nevermind.

    Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire:
    Statler: In the Goblet of Fire Harry Potter and his pals fight the most terrifying monster yet.
    Waldorf: Yeah, puberty.
    Waldorf: So Statler, what are some of your favorite mythical creatures from the Harry Potter movies?
    Statler: Oh that's easy. Britsh kids with good teeth!

    I can't believe I'm the only one who gets a kick out of these!

    Oh well, I guess I'l just keep entertaining myself...

    heehee

    Just saw this, off to check....

    I've been watching the Muppets since I was 4, having kids just gave me an excuse to come out of the closet. :D
