After being out of the spotlight for so long, it seems the Muppets just aren't as famous as they used to be. One studio executive agrees to let the group put on a show to try and save their theater from the clutches of an evil oil magnate who wants to tear it down. With the help of new Muppet, Walter, and his friends, Gary (Jason Segel) and Mary (Amy Adams), they set out to raise the $10 million they need to save the studio.

Not Famous Anymore

Veronica: "I'm gonna shoot straight: You guys aren't famous anymore."
Fozzie Bear: "Yeesh. I wish she'd shot a little more curvy."

Poor Muppets. Veronica (Rashida Jones) is a high-powered TV executive who gives them the bad news: They're no longer relevant. Or are they? Can they prove they're still as beloved as they ever were?

One-Dimensional

Statler: "Is this movie in 3D?"
Waldorf: "Nope! The Muppets are as one-dimensional as they've always been."

Statler and Waldorf are two of my favorite Muppets characters ever. True to form here, they are still the world's funniest, grumpiest haters.

No Drums!

Animal: "No drums! No drums! Jack Black said no drums!"

Poor Animal. He's trying so, so hard to control his anger issues - and not playing drums again is part of the deal (per Jack Black, his guru). Something tells me that Animal won't be able to hold off playing forever...

Man or Muppet

Mary (to Gary): "Are you a man, or a Muppet?"

Mary poses this question to Gary because, quite frankly, she's getting sick and tired of Gary constantly putting the Muppets (and his brother, Walter) ahead of her on the priority list. The question leads to a great musical number. Oh and Gary's answer, he's a "muppet of a man!"

In Control

Animal: "In control."

Definitely one of the most quotable lines from 'The Muppets' movie. Animal's mantra helps - but will it keep him from losing it completely? In the meantime, he keeps "acting naaaaaaaatural."
