Trailer here. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FojK8aslZNI)

Release Date: November 23rd, 2011 (wide)

Starring: Jason Segel, Amy Adams, Chris Cooper, Alan Arkin, Zach Galifianakis

Premise: On vacation in Los Angeles, Walter, the world's biggest Muppet fan, and his friends Gary and Mary from Smalltown, USA, discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman to raze the Muppet Theater and drill for the oil recently discovered beneath the Muppets' former stomping grounds. To stage The Greatest Muppet Telethon Ever and raise the $10 million neededto save the theater, Walter, Mary and Gary help Kermit reunite the Muppets, who have all gone their separate ways: Fozzie now performs with a Reno casino tribute band called the Moopets, Miss Piggy is a plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, Animal is in a Santa Barbara clinic for anger management, and Gonzo is a high-powered plumbing magnate.

Even if the movie is a disappointment, that trailer is a smile. Some people are still Muppets enthusiasts.

I think my favorite part of the "Green with Envy" trailer is the Muppet Snorricam shot.

While I'm enjoying these trailers and am psyched about the movie, I am totally put off that one of the only actual scenes from the movie appears to be a Scarface reference (boo to any of that).
