I think they are great! The miss piggy one is a bit generic (and it is Hannah montana), but overall i think they look great. I think the best one is the Pirates of the amphibians poster by far.

I agree the Pirates one is up-to-snuff. But the High School Musical, Wall-E, and Hannah Montana ones are pretty weak.

Too bad so many of these seem to serve no other purpose than to promote Disney movies.

Beak-E? That doesn't even make sense.

High School Mayhem? Not very clever.

Hannah Montana and Miss Piggy? Probably took 2 minutes to think that one up.

I love the Muppets, but geez, that's not the quality I expect from Jim Henson's characters---it's the quality I expect from Direct-to-Video Disney sequels.

I agree with you. I love the Muppets, but it really is an excuse to 'promote' (not that they really need promotion) Disney films, and really bad ones at that (with the exception of Wall-E). I'm not up in arms about it, but I just think the Muppets would be best used lampooning CLASSIC films.

These types of puns are EXACTLY what the Muppets are known for.

A-Net-Full-Of-Jello? 2-D Fruities? That's kind of how the Muppets work, on TV, in the movies - even in the theme parks. They have always been very meta-referential and self-deprecating.

Really? You think taking Hannah Montana and adding Miss Piggy's name is as clever as Annette Full of Jello?

Maybe if I was high on pixie dust I'd agree with you, but I'm not, so I don't.

Dude, they are a quick pun to keep people amused when in line for a movie. It's something clever for kids to recognize who aren't really old enough to know who the Muppets are.

It's a gag - it's clever, it's quick and they look great. I don't think they are hurting anyone.

Hammah Montana (I think several posters on this thread didn't catch the M instead of N in Hammah) is great. Typical Muppets

This has disney marketing's hands all over it:

Ok lets have one movie poster about a disney movie, another focusing on the Disney channel hit high school musical, we will do one to promote a pixar film, oh and we can't forget Touchstone (Wild Hogs)
