I grew up watching Muppets movies, I loved them. So I was pretty happy, and also somewhat shocked, when O showed interest in them. She was still very young when the most recent Muppets movie came out. She would play in the living room, paying no attention to the tv that would be on in the background...until a trailer for the new Muppets movie would come on. She would literally stop what she was doing to watch it, she was entranced. When it came out on blu ray we immediately scooped one up, and she loves it. She loves the singing and dancing and seeing all the characters.
Try as I might, I can't get her to show any interest in the older Muppets films though, something about them just isn't appealing to her. So, imagine my surprise this morning when I woke up and saw several people talking about the new movie that just started filming in London.
