The History of The Muppets (Part 7) | Animation Lookback
#Muppets #kermitthefrog #AniMat - Фільми й анімація
The Muppets 2011 is a loving tribute to the franchise and it's sequel is one of my all time favorite movies.
The popularity of the Muppets was as famous as when Jim Henson was alive
Steve getting fired was definitely a tragedy not in death, but of pure disbelief. 😢😢😢
No offense to Matt Vogel, but while he does well with the late Jerry Nelson’s characters and keeping his spirit alive through the performances, he’s obviously no Steve Whitmire.
@@hunterolaughlinI not ready for the next episode
Justice for Steve.
@@hunterolaughlinMatt’s just not fit for Kermit, now I like Matt as The Count, Floyd, Sweetums and Uncle Deadly, I kinda like his Robin and Lew Zealand
I remember when my father took me to see “The Muppets” and my mother with “Muppets Most Wanted”. They were the only times I got to see the Muppets on the big screen, as well as skipping “The Happytime Murders”.
Also, I like to humbly thank the late Jane Nebel Henson for being Jim Henson’s collaborator on “Sam and Friends”, the living Steve Whitmire for carrying the legacy of Kermit after Jim’s 1990 passing up until 2017, and new Muppet character Walter for reviving the frog and his gang’s popularity for a short period during the 2010 decade.
On an unrelated note, for those who’ve watched the “Fraggle Rock” reboot, do any of you have a theory why Mokey’s original puppeteer Kathryn Mullen didn’t reprise her role?
Steve whitmire left the muppets in 2016
Also as for Kathryn Mullen not reprising her role as mokey in the fraggle rock reboot, I assumed she might’ve retired from puppeteering
It's the Muppets Comeback era! I really enjoyed the 2011 movie and Muppets Most Wanted. The "Am I A Man Or A Muppet?" song was charming.
My favorite songs are Life's a Happy song pictures in my head but Man or Muppet has won an Oscar for best song
So Pixar helped with 2011s The Muppets? Is this why there was a billboard for Cars 2 that would pop up in the second half of the movie?
After a nearly a whole decade of smaller projects, the Muppets returned to their cinematic universe with the 2011 Muppets movie. It was meant to show that the Muppets still had their charm and wit from the original show and the first three movies. Not only did it bring back and flesh out some characters from the original show that had been absent for decades (most notably, Uncle Deadly, Wayne and Wanda), but it introduced us to Walter, the latest member of the cast who was meant to serve as an audience surrogate. His introduction felt organic and the way he played off some of the other characters like Pepe, Fozzie and Kermit really made us feel like he was destined to be one of the group. It proved that the Muppets will always be relevant, whether a project is new or decades old.
After the success of the 2011 movie, the Muppets returned to the theater once again in the form of Muppets Most Wanted. It was their first direct sequel and went for a more traditional Muppet film route. Unfortunately, it didn’t perform all that well at the box office, despite the positive reaction, and from the looks of it, it seems the Muppets have finally left the theatrical scene, permanently.
A year later, ABC greenlit a new Muppet series called "The Muppets on ABC". It was done in the form a documentary sitcom that focused on the Muppets’ everyday lives. Unfortunately, it had a lot of issues during its very short run. Many moral guardians were complaining that the movie was too adult oriented and began boycotting the show, even though the Muppets are meant for general audiences. Fans were also having a hard time connecting to it. However, in the second half, the show got some major tweaks and found its footing, allowing for many standout episodes and better character development. Too bad ABC pulled the plug on the show before it could continue the story arcs, release an album or bring in characters that were absent in the show.
The 2010s proved to be a renaissance age for the Muppets, but sadly, it was too good to last.
But things will get even worst Steve Whitmire will get fired I'm no longer Been ask Jim Henson's alter-ego anymore
It wasn't just Disney that fired Steve, it was the (Post Jim) Henson family too.
But now with the remakes no longer being billion-dollar Titans I think Disney will be doing sequels from already existing properties like hocus-pocus Tron and the princess diaries will get third movie we need a third movie for the Muppets as well when they scrap all future live action remakes
And here we are with the new decade of Muppet craziness. Whether it be teaming up with Jason Segel, Amy Adams, and a new Muppet character named Walter to reunite the gang for one big show, encountering a Kermit look-alike who's actually a very dangerous criminal, or trying their hand at a modern day TV show on ABC, it looks like our heroes have a lot of work ahead of them...but can it all work out in the long run?
However the true downfall what's going to happen in an unexpected news even bigger than Miss Piggy's broke up for Kermit the Frog and that's the firing of Steve Whitmire buckle up we're reaching the end of the story
Kermit was also on a reality TV show. (The Masked Singer)
Interesting fact: the locomotive of the Muppets' tour train was portrayed by 'Captain Baxter', an 0-4-0 tank engine that was built in 1877 by Fletcher, Jennings & Co. for the Dorking Greystone Lime Company. Its now preserved at the Bluebell Railway in West Sussex, England.
Around the same time as The Muppets, Miss Piggy guest stared in a short series, Take Two with Phineas and Ferb. She also guest appeared in So Random, the spin off to Sonny with a Chance. Soon after movie came out, Disney Cruise Line gave the Muppets their own adventure in the detective game, Midship Detective Agency. The game found on the Disney Dream and Fantasy. The gang also guest stared in an episode of Good Luck Charlie from Disney Channel. Just some extra fun facts i thought you’d like to know
That is true.
You misspelled Channel for Disney Channel wrong 😑
@@eliassmeke3991 sorry. It’s fixed now
I cried a bit in the theater during 2011 Muppets movie because not only were they got back on the big screen but it was so darn good. Most Wanted was just okay.
19:56 Kermit: IT'S A (BOX OFFICE) BOOOOOMB!!!!!!
Crazy hairy: did somebody say bomb?
@@facusmendoza1061 oh.
The Muppets (TV Series) only lasted for 1 season with 16 episodes and the production companies are ABC Studios, The Muppets Studio and Bill Prady Productions
Also Muppets Most Wanted predicted what happened to Kermit when Steve Whitmire get fired really Constantine took over the Muppets I'm not ready for next episode
When are the muppets gonna make an actual reboot to the muppet show
It would include celebrities of today
Statler: I wouldn't believe it if I haven't watched it.
Waldorf: Believe what?
Statler: I don't know I wasn't watching!
Both: DOHOHOHOHOHO!
I still find it hard to believe that The Muppets (2011) was a big comeback for the Muppets and made them popular again. To me, the Muppets really never went away. They were always popular in my vision.
Hey bud, I haven’t seen you in 10 years.
How’s it been?
Your vision happens to be incorrect
Unpopular opinion: I actually enjoyed the Muppets TV show on ABC. It’s definitely not for everyone but I enjoyed the switch up of their usual formula.
I loved the series! I was a fan of it
@@brockpifer9929 yaaaaay
I said it once and I said it again. My favorite scene in the Muppet 2011 movie, is when Gonzo blew up his toilet seat empire business to pieces. XD
This was a good comeback for the muppet during the early 2010s. I remembered I saw the muppets and it’s sequel as a kid, and I really had fun with it. It does suck that most wanted didn’t make enough money and the 2015 series was short lived, but it did deliver some good content. Unfortunately we’re entering the next era where Whitmire was fired
Buckle up it's not going to end well
Justice for Whitmire.
29:46 CODE RED!! CODE RED!!
Honestly, I wished ABC didn't cancelled the 2015 series. If it ran for two more seasons, it would have improved. But nope, we can't have nice things in the world of Buena Vista. If only we could go back in time to get the muppets getting saved and off the menu
Ironic on how the muppets hosted SNL after the big issue they had when they first started.
7:03, That would've been Funny to see Elmo appear in the Film at some point, since he did appear on The Muppet Show Live way back in December of 2001!
The Muppets 2011 almost made what The Flash can't.
Put Christian Bale and George Clooney in the same movie.
Statler & Waldorf: DOHOHOHO!
Statler: “Nice burn, kid!”

But the mystery it's why it bomb
@@facusmendoza1061 maybe it’s because of tough competition.
@@Princess_-gp3ep like Divergent
I'm surprised you never mentioned Jane Henson's passing and dedication in Muppets Most Wanted!
Surprised that was missing, along with Roy E. Disney’s passing in the WDAS (Plus) Animation Lookback series.
Same here
I just realised that myself!
@@FistfulOfCourageI wish that in The Princess and the Frog the end of the credits we seen a tag that says in memory of Roy Edward Disney thank you for keeping the magic alive
@@facusmendoza1061 Or during the credits of Tangled, since Roy passed while Tangled was in production.
Did you know that the plot of The Muppets (2011) inspired the plot of VeggieTales: Celery Night Fever?
No way
I knew it!
Except The Muppets did it better.
@@hunterolaughlin True
Y’know what. I love the ABC Muppet show. I love it when The Muppets get a little adult but it’s not enough adult to get to the point where it’s unrecognizable as The Muppets.
I wonder how the charles groden cameo would have worked..would he have reprised his role as nicky holiday,or appeared as himself?
I hope part 8 gets here soon. I need as much more Muppet info as possible. This series of videos is a great influence for a college project I'm brainstorming!
The Muppets (2011) was the only Muppet movie I saw on the big screen...I ended up seeing it twice, both times with different family members.
Happy birthday Matt, and many more!!!!!🎁🎁🎁🎁
Next Episode:
Steve Whitemire Fired
Dark Crystal Age of Resistance
Fraggle Rock Back to the Rock
Muppets Now
Muppets Haunted Mansion
Muppets Mayhem
14:57- Just finished dinner from McDonald’s, and Mom told me she would try and make some poutine out of the leftover French fries!
I really wish they could make a movie adaptation of the novel “tales of a sixth grade muppet”
the biggest mystery will be why Muppets Most Wanted bombed it's a mystery
19:31 Sort of facts.

This feel like the Muppet version of the Disney Renaissance like Disney was reborn after Walt Disney's death with films like The Little Mermaid Beauty and the Beast and the Lion King the 2011 film it's when they made the Renaissance after Jim Henson's death
One other thing about the 2015 Muppets sitcom that really bothered me was how mean-spirited it felt sometimes. Not only was Miss Piggy EXTREMELY selfish and entitled, not only was Kermit kind of a sleazy womanizer, but the episode where Fozzie met Jay Leno was one of the most needlessly cruel episodes of any show I’ve watched. I won’t spoil anything, but you’ll see what I mean once the script comes to the words “George Carlin Candy Dish.”
The 2011 Muppet movie was one of the first times I actually remember enjoying the cinema, alongside Azur and Azmar and the 2011 Winnie the Pooh film. By far the most memorable part for me was when Amy Adams broke the fourth wall. “This is gonna be a very short movie…”
So far her performance as Mary it's the most funniest performance that she did but I still love her performance as Giselle in Enchanted
2:41 Screaming?
Yeah... Walter did not take that news too lightly. To be blunt, when he heard the news, he panicked. Does this help?
I kid u not I cried when I heard miss Piggy and Kermit broke up.
🎵Everything is great. Everything is grand. I got the whole wide world in the palm of my hand🎵
🎵Everything is perfect. It's falling into a place. I can't seem to wipe this smile off of my face.🎵

Kermit meme. 31:44
The Muppets (2011) premiered at the Savannah Film Festival on November 4, 2011 and was a box office success upon its release on November 23,
I remember when hints of a Muppet movie were floating around Geocities and MySpace almost 20 years ago (as well as the unmade Dark Crystal movie).
I still remember the day I went to go see the 2011 muppet movie with me and my family for my birthday at the cinema I remember absolutely loving it and it was even the film that made me interested in the muppets in general I remember watching them before this movie but never really thought much of them but after watching the 2011 film I was absolutely fascinated with the muppets and it’s what got me into the franchise in general with watching the previous muppet shows and movies and even knowing about the people who created the franchise including Jim Henson you can tell that it was made as a love letter to the muppets franchise and I’ll admit I actually do have a soft spot for muppets: most wanted me and my mom watched it on our way back from a holiday in Türkiye I didn’t really care that it didn’t do well at the box office all I cared about was seeing the muppet magic we all know and love and to me it succeeded at that I also remember when the 2015 series came out and people tor it apart they absolutely despised this series though honestly I didn’t really mind the show yeah I knew it was different from the other 2 films but I still enjoyed it and it even had some good episodes though in more recent years I have seen that the hate for the series has definitely died down overtime and has even started getting a cult following I honestly don’t think the series deserved to be so short lived I feel like if it was still going on today like if it would’ve been on it’s 7th or 8th season the show could’ve been great and adored by muppet fans so yeah I feel like the early to mid 2010s was definitely the most diversed time for the muppets and it was a time that they were the most popular pretty much ever since Jim Henson was still alive
Talk about the feebles coward (it’s really good i swear)
The temporary successful comeback of the Muppets!
Disney sure hates the muppets, which explains why muppet vision 3D is no longer at DCA and merch is very rare. Just great 😔😔😔
@@danielgudinojuarez6729 I’m afraid tex rich-man was right about no one caring about the Muppets anymore.
@@danielgudinojuarez6729afterwards it there was a Frozen sing along show then the building was only used for previous of upcoming Disney features until a permanent use with Mickey's philharmagic but you can still find Muppet Vision 3D at Walt Disney World at Disney's Hollywood Studios
History of the Muppets part 8
Please
9 years later and we never got another Muppet movie 😢
I wonder if I’m not the only one, but I remember seeing the TV spots for The Muppets (2011) and one of them contained Wanda Syke’s deleted cameo and going to see the film in theaters and being confused when she didn’t make an appearance. Anyone else remembering getting confused as well?
Yeah.
Yep
2:50 Didn't this plot happen in another movie before?
Oh yeah, Space jam a new legacy. Which they did worse honestly.
I'm really liking how both part 6 and 7 are more detailed compare to The Glad in Gladiator's own version of the Muppets time with Disney.
2:41 the end of the world in a nutshell
29:46
I’d say that Mat is almost done with Lookback.
Next part is the Muppets time in Disney+ and finally the honorable mention.
@@alexor1327which is MuppetVision 3D
@@alexor1327but first we're going to take a look at Steve Whitmire firing anyway I don't know what he will do next after he ends the series maybe a special episode of animation look-back of Walt Disney Animation Studios Now featuring the covid-19 pandemic Raya and The Last Dragon Encanto Bob chapek downfall and Bob iger's return Strange World and wish
@facusmendoza1061 that plot for an episode of Disney+ was already used in a video a week or two ago with disneys worst ceo
@@extremelycharles anyway I want to check out Raya and The Last Dragon Encanto Strange World and wish for an extra episode
Fun 🤩 Fact: The Muppets (2011) was originally gonna to released in Christmas 🤶 of 2011, but it was later moved up ⬆️ to Thanksgiving of that year
4:22, I kind of wanna know what that Plot-Twisted Ending would've looked like
One muppet movie from the 2000s that is very underrated is a muppets Christmas letters to Santa from 2008
I wish part 8 was uploaded.
It’s coming tomorrow.
❤️💖 I wished Disney could make another potential Muppet movie in the near future! 😃😀😄😁😊😉 👍🏻 💖❤️
They pulled the plug on all the remakes for good Disney will do sequels to The Princess Diaries Hocus Pocus Tron a third part to the Muppets
Stay tuned next time folks as we are reaching almost the end of the line things are going to be a chaos Steve Whitmire it's no longer with Kermit the Frog but on the bright side The Muppets are ready to make the next step to the future of entertainment with streaming services with a couple of TV shows and a special based on a classic Disney ride buckle up because we are reaching towards the end of the story and the show
Can't wait for the conclusion.
the 2011 Muppets and 2014s muppets most wanted are both awesome movies as for the 2015 muppets show much like NBC's father of the pride and a couple other shows it deserved more than 1 season
14:49
I LOVE all-star casts.
Unpopular opinion: I think Muppets Most Wanted is better than The Muppets 2011.
I definitely think most wanted had better songs, but I prefer Muppets 2011 overall
The Muppets is a great movie in the aspects of an introduction to a new audience, but Muppets Most Wanted was also great in terms of a movie. (I'm posting this as someone who absolutely fell in love with Muppets Most Wanted, as well as Constantine, when it came out and trying their best to not have a biased opinion.)
I thought it was funnier than Muppets 2011
I agree
Same. It had better music, and a more fun plot
5:47 this age
🐻 **in a deep voice** “Mmm, ‘wakka-wakka’, who wants to hear a funneh joke?”
Love the muppets!
Glad I can still watch this! This is gonna be good!
Alright, this definitely felt like the time of seeing the major comeback of the Muppets, and I want to say this was a fun decade. I still hold fond memories of the two recent movies (2nd One Underrated soundtrack!) and the Muppets Tv Series later on. Although the series was not the best thing that came after the movies, I Still hold merriment to some episodes I find pretty hilarious even today.
All to say what could be next, Muppet Haunted Mansion? The Muppets Mayhem? All the Disney cartoon appearances during the time Kermit going through puberty?
Not to mention a series called Muppets now
Don’t forget their time at Hollywood Bowl.
13:37 minimum the category has to be fill in three or five nominees other songs that could join the nomination are hello Hello From Elton John and Lady Gaga on Gnomeo & Juliet So Long by Zooey Deschanel on 2011 Winnie the Pooh or Masterpiece from Madonna on W.E. but they weren't as good enough to fight against Man or Muppet
Part 8 should be here next month.
Cute muppet at the beginning
I feel pretty sad for everyone at the muppet studios, they thought everything was gonna go great after 2011's the muppets but then in 2014, the public didn't care anymore after Muppets most wanted under preformed and ultimately troubles occurred behind the scenes. It didn't help either that Brian henson would come back in the directors chair and helmed the worst movie of 2018, the happy time murders!!! Plus, the 2020 article showed who he really is. If he hates the art of puppetry, I do believe it and that's no cool 😤😤😤
What article?
The Muppets are back again!
Another ”Excellent Video" by *your's truly*! Well done, AniMat!😎👍💯
32:50 😂
It was amazing the 2011 feature with this film along with Walter The Muppets were back in action unfortunately Most Wanted the 2015 series and Steve Whitmire firing it's where we have a big downfall
Ps: I really love Amy Adams performance as both Giselle in Enchanted and Mary in The Muppets
Ps2 I wonder what was the life of Gary and Mary afterwards I think they have their wedding (maybe Mary has Giselle's wedding dress) they have their honeymoon and even probably now they have children probably Walter will be an uncle for them
Ps3 with the live-action remakes no longer box office hits and billion-dollar Titans like in the 2010 I think it's safe to say that Disney will move forward with sequel for Hocus Pocus 3 The Princess Diaries 3 Tron Ares and even the Muppets need a third film
Ps4 Mandeville films if the also that has producer of the 1996 live-action film of George of the Jungle and the 2017 live action remake of Beauty and the Beast in the 2022 film of Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers
And Finally ps5 2:40
Walter: AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Gary: Walter!
Giselle Walter?
Gary: Walter!
Giselle Walter?
The Muppets 2011 was the best Muppet movie since Muppet Christmas Carol, you can see why it's the highest grossing Muppet film to date!
Nice Episode Dude
RIP Tony 🍺😑
18:50: Brofeld jumpscare
Next time, Kermit gets a new partner while he and the gang try their hands at streaming.
We are going to have Muppets now the Muppets mayhem and the Muppet Haunted Mansion we're reaching the end of the story so stay tooned
This is going to be a lot of Chaos mate vogel has Kermit the Frog sound a little bit off and more Constantine
I honestly think they just don't understand how to handle muppets, this is franchise like many others, where it needs breaks for lighter content and then come back to light with better movie
I think Jim Henson himself would really love The Muppets (2011), Muppets Most Wanted (2014) & the Muppet Viral Videos (2008-today).
Unpopular opinion: I think The Muppets & Muppets Most Wanted are just as good as the first 3 Muppet movies & both 2010s Muppet movies are better than the Christmas Carol & Treasure Island adaptations.
He will be proud that Kermit and the Gang have Outlast him and even very impressed with Walter you hear it with the 2011 film they were as famous like in the days when he was alive
The same thing will happen to the Super Mario Bros and Barbie.
Ironically I’m getting my tonsils out soon (if I can work the busted USA healthcare system).
20:14 I think I saw your green screen being cut off by the door and the light in the hallway!
@ElectricDragon505, will you please make the top 15 creepiest Nicktoon/Nickelodeon episodes and the top 15 creepiest Cartoon Network episodes for Halloween?
When’s part 8 of Animation Lookback: The Muppets gonna be released?
Hey all you hardcore STH fans out there, you guys should make '07 Retroject Sonic!. Imagine if both SEGA and Sonic Team made their very own Retro Sonic around the same time the fan game of the same name itself enter the picture and it's not only an indescribable fun blast from the past must play masterpiece we've ever witness in recent memory, but it's also easily THE top-tier best of the absolute best and good funbelievably endless Classic Sonic the Hedgehog video game experience we've ever experienced yet before Mania enter the scene a decade later, period! It also features a zone/adventure story maker mode, encore mode, online and COM adventure battle race royale mode and so, so, so, so, so, so, SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much stuff in this very game alone, it's an unquestionably breath-taking retro video game spectacle we will not, and shall not, EVER forget (even in our 80's/90's), no questions asked!
7:07 Shouldn't have sold Elmo, Jim Henson Company. Really shot yourselves in the foot there.
I played Muppet Treasure Island CD in the 1990s.
I’ll continue to hope for new muppet movies until I cameo in one
Muppet Mania
I'm glad that they got one of Kermit's relatives to play his doppelganger. I hate it when they do the whole split screen thing. Sure it's clever, but it completely takes me out of the film.
