HUMAN/MUPPET SEXUALITY, CONT'D: Paul Katcher has a review up of the "Muppets Take Manhattan" DVD, touching on several topics that should be famiiar to longtime readers of this blog. Money graf:
It was bad enough to hear Miss Piggy mention marriage to Kermit — a playa if there ever was one — but when she talked about having children, I almost Rowlfed. The image in my head of skinny-assed Kermit mounting that fat slut is going to stick with me for awhile. Elsewhere in the movie, Fozzie was getting spooned by a BBB (big, beautiful bear), Gonzo was lusting after chickens, and Rowlf was making nice with some bitch who got dropped off in the dog kennel. It was an animal love-fest.
Paul doesn't mention the near-affair between Kermit and the human female, but I digress- I told you I wasn't the only one who noticed a disturbing pattern of sexuality in recent Muppet material.
