The Muppets is released in cinemas in the UK this week. Released in the US last November, it is the first theatrical outing for The Muppets since 1999’s Muppets from Space. The movie enjoyed reasonable success in the United States, and we’ll find out this weekend how it fares in the UK. It has not set the world box office alight so far, but has definitely found an audience. The question, then, is how to build on this momentum.

A few days ago i posted an article celebrating George Clooneys 50th birthday, and his 20 years on Hollywood’s A-list (which you can read here). Thanks to Bleeding Cool, it was brought to my attention this week that another great Hollywood star had a birthday, and went 6 better at the age of 56. Not quite such a round number, but i didn’t like to see it go past without say something. I’ve been a Muppet fan pretty much my entire life.
