Here’s an older episode I, for whatever reason, failed to upload at whatever point. It was made before the Marvel episode, and focuses on the Muppets! WAKA WAKA!

Not only do I remember an old FMV game based on Muppet’s Treasure Island, but we also talk about the Netflix Random film, Hackers! There’s hacking in it! That special kind of hacking that only makes sense in Hollywood films!

Muppets: Most Wanted (2014)

First things first, I love the Muppets. In nearly every form they’ve taken, I’ve always had a fondness for them. Whether it’s Fozzie Bear’s terrible jokes, Gonzo’s death-defying stunts, or Kermit’s every-man show-runner, the TV show and the subsequent movies appealed to a part of me that could identify with their specific comedy stylings. So when there was a new film released in 2011, I wasn’t sure how it would turn out. However, it ended up being one of the best possible tributes to the Muppets Legacy, with the film fully understanding not just the strengths of the Muppets, but also the torture and imprisonment of Jack Black. So, things we can all get behind. This new film aims to keep the Muppets in the limelight, with a big ‘Great Muppets Caper’ style trip around the world, complete with heists, chases, and other antics.
