The Pig With The Froggy Tattoo Trailer Breakdown, Part 2

    Yesterday, Disney released the fourth teaser trailer for The Muppets called "The Pig With The Froggy Tattoo," parodying the sporadic trailer for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. This new trailer was so jam-packed with new content and clips from the movie, that we had to separate our traditional trailer breakdown into two parts. Be sure to check out yesterday's Part 1 before diving into today's Part 2. Which, as it so happens, is located conveniently below!

    0:40 - Look at him... there he is... right where he belongs. Remember when Kermit said he wanted to make millions of people happy? Well... there ya go. Plus... that whole segue of Kermit walking from distraught theater to the stage to the red carpet... inspired and amazing.
    0:42 - Look how happy they all are! Well... except Miss Poogy. You think this means they get to do the telethon? Oh, gee, I hope so... otherwise it'll be a pretty short movie.
    0:43 - This is one of the most amazing shots I've ever seen... Gonzo never looked so good!! That cape is extraordinary. Methinks he's jumping off the roof of his plumbing company.
    0:44 - Three words: Neil. Patrick. Harris.
    0:44 - SO much to say about this... are Uncle Deadly and Tex Richman trying to disable the television broadcast for the telethon? Is Deadly trying to prevent Richman from doing that? It certainly looks like they're fighting over something.
    0:48 - Hey-o! That's Alan Arkin! Looks like he really is playing The Muppets Studio tour guide. Love it!!
    0:48 - This is one of my favorite, favorite shots. They showed this scene at the D23 Expo and, let me just say, the visual gag that accompanies this image will have you rolling on the floor. But mostly... let's just observe the triumphant, glowing return of our friend the Frog.
    0:49 - Look at that funny thing! Obviously Fozzie's head and hand... but that's Scooter's hand sticking out of the other end. My bet is that Kermit, Rowlf, and Animal are stuck in that suit somewhere too.
    0:51 - If you haven't had an extreme fan-attack... your eyes are probably closed.
    0:53 - Two things... one, I love me an exasperated Kermit. Two, there's a Mutation just hanging out backstage. What year is this?!
    0:53 - Tex Richman taking an ax to some sort of electric box... accompanied by Bobo and Uncle Deadly (far right) and the Moopets. So they really are evil!
    0:59 - It's time for everyone's favorite game! Spot the Muppets! From left to right... Random Goat thing, Mutation, Luncheon Counter Monster, Cactus, Crocodile, Chicken, Behemoth, Sweetums, Penguin, Marvin Suggs, Geri and the Atrics Drummer, Whatnot 1, Big Mean Carl, Thog, Whatnot 2, Beautiful Day Monster, Quongo, Waldorf, Blue Monster, Whatnot 3, Green Frackle, Statler, Afghan Hound, Pokey, Blustering Bellowpane Monster, Pink Frackle, Rowlf, Bunsen Honeydew, Sheep, Link Hogthrob, Miss Piggy, Blue Frog, Sam Eagle, Crazy Harry, Bunny, Robin, Ram, Animal, Fozzie, Floyd, Walter. How interesting that Statler and Waldorf are there...
     0:59 - Who's going to love this movie? Mee mee me!
    1:00 - Uncle Deadly... obviously singing in the finale song performance shot on Hollywood Boulevard. Does he become good by the end? Or can he just not pass up a chance to sing?
    1:02 - I think this is Kermit and Piggy's walk through Paris... which means that Kermit's suit in this scene was designed by Brooks Brothers. Love it.
    1:03 - This is just one of those perfect shots that you don't expect and don't want to see until you see it and you fall in love with it completely.
    1:09 - It's time to play the music...
    1:10 - It's time to light the lights... Wow. WOW. What an utterly perfect recreation.
     1:11 - Look at those Muppets! Just look at them!
    1:12 - Happy Muppets in a car! Do we get to find Miss Piggy next, 80's Robot? Oh, just drive...
    1:15 - Creepy Miss Poogy... Creepy EVIL Miss Poogy... hoo-boy.

    Is it November 23rd yet?

The Pig With the Froggy Tattoo Teaser Trailer Breakdown, Part 1

    Did you wake up this morning on the wrong side of the bed? Are you in need of a little pick me up? Having a rough time as summer wains and fall lords over us? Well... lucky for you, the folks at Walt Disney Studios have the cure for... well, the cure for everything:



    The Pig With The Froggy Tattoo... the fourth and latest parody trailer (a parody of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo trailer) for The Muppets has made my day, week, and month. Heck, if it weren't for the actual movie coming out in November, it might have made my year.

    In the grand tradition of every other trailer for this movie,we've taken the liberty of breaking down this brand new trailer for you, new image by new image. This trailer is so completely overflowing with new stuff, however, that we're going to have to split up this breakdown into two parts. (I have a total of 54 different screencaps waiting here.) So check back tomorrow for Part 2, and for now... enjoy the wonder of the first 30 screencaps from The Pig With The Froggy Tattoo.

    0:06 - Can you say "Fifteen seconds to curtain?" Because I certainly think Scooter can, and will, in the movie. Also, check out the picture of Scooter and Sylvester Stallone from The Muppet Show on the wall!
    0:07 - I really want to know what the Muppets get thrown in jail for... but for now I'll just settle for seeing Gonzo in his classic purple tuxedo once again.
    0:10 - It's at this time in the breakdown that I'd like to start taking a tally of Piggy outfits in this trailer. With this one and the one in the clip above we're already up to two... and we're ten seconds in.
     0:11 - Hey! That's Rashida Jones! She's very obviously backstage at the Muppet Theater. (How awesome is that?) This is the first time we've actually seen any footage of her in the movie.
    0:12 - I can confirm that this scene takes place during the "We Built This City" montage of cleaning up the theater as Kermit tries to find big-name talent for the save the theater telethon. This is after Kermit has, obviously, gone through his entire Rolodex.
    0:13 - Poor 80's Robot... he gets left behind in the car while an explosion happens. This is an AWESOME shot.
    0:14 - Fozzie STILL can't believe they could afford an explosion that big! I love this... Scooter and Fozzie just chilling on a couch. When have we ever seen that?
    0:14 - Ladies and gentlemen, Tex Richman and the Las Vegas show-girl dancers!
    0:15 - Check this out! This takes place right after the Muppets finish cleaning the theater and Dr. Teeth turns off the radio playing "We Built This City."
    0:19 - LINK! It's Link Hogthrob polishing a mirror! How perfect... how utterly perfect.
     0:22 - I'm not entirely sure what's happening here... but I just loved Kermit's face here.
     0:24 - Rowlf. Piano. Joyful. Enough said.
     0:25 - Two things... one, LIPS! Two, purple tuxedos from The Muppet Show. Three (sorry, three things), Floyd, Animal, Lips, band pit... amazing.
    0:26 - This is obviously the first time that Kermit lays eyes on Piggy when the find her in Paris. This shot and the camera movement are almost a perfect mimic of The Muppet Movie.
     0:27 - There's Rashida Jones again! I guess this means that her TV executive character works for a station called CDE. Whatever that means.
    0:28 - This movie has dancing chickens?! Count me in. (As if you couldn't already.)
    0:28 - Does anyone know who this guy is? It looks like he's playing another TV executive... but I don't recognize the actor at all and I assume it's a cameo.
    0:30 - Based on the picture frame, I'm pretty sure this is a shot from Kermit's song "Pictures in My Head" that he sings while walking through his empty mansion. LOVE the perfect recreation of the Chef's kitchen!
    0:31 - I have a theory about where/when this shot takes place... I'm thinking that this is when Walter discovers Tex Richman's plans to raze the Muppet Theater after he sneaks off during the tour of The Muppets Studio.
     0:31 - Statler and Waldorf are back in the balcony once again!!
     0:32 - This is really going to be a great musical number. I hope Bobo is acting stupid during it. (Isn't he always?)
    0:32 - Gonzo and Camilla do a little dance... but if you look closely, Gonzo is holding a detonator in his other hand (not pictured here). Could HE be the one who blows up Gonzo's Royal Flush?
    0:33 - Possibly the most captivating shot in the entire trailer... a picture of Kermit and Piggy, happily married at the end of The Muppets Take Manhattan, torn in two. Note that Kermit is holding it Miss Piggy's half of the picture and Miss Piggy is holding Kermit's half. What does this mean?!
    0:34 - Nothing much to say here... other than I love shots filled with random Muppets. (Hi, Zoot!)
    0:35 - It's awesome child actor Rico Rodriguez from TV's Modern Family! He looks SO happy to be with those Snowths! (Wouldn't you be?) But just what is he doing with those Snowths?
    0:36 - I LOVE this. I'm pretty sure this is one of the first times the Muppets get a look at their dilapidated theater.
    0:36 - I have a feeling that this is where Piggy comes through in a big way. Plus... that's a great outfit for her.
    0:37 - Wait a minute... that's comedian Sarah Silverman! We didn't know that she was in the movie! What a fantastic surprise! (Mostly because it means that there are sure to be even more surprise cameos!)
    0:37 - I LOVE this shot. The supportive Piggy, standing right behind her frog. 
    0:38 - And, our final shot of part 1, Kermit tears down the barriers and is about to enter the Muppet Theater once again. This was the opening of the scene shown at the D23 Expo last month.

    Be sure to check back tomorrow for the rest of our breakdown! We're only 38 seconds in... there's a lot more to see!
