Most Wanted Appearances March 15-16th

The Muppets made a few very different kind appearances over the weekend. 


First, Disney held a Catch Constantine event in Union Square, NY. It was apparently supposed to feature Jean Pierre Napoleon's car...




but it didn't make from LA in time so they set up a cardboard cutout instead. 


Matthew Soberman takes it for spin.

They also gave out Constantine cutouts and buttons to help promote the film.(Thanks Matthew Soberman for the photo and info)


Then Bret Mckenzie, Walter, and some guy named Peter, were on "hand" to host two back-to-back Sing-a-Long screenings of 2011's The Muppets in New York. 

Some ToughPigs acting tough. 

Bret Mckenzie, Walter, and that Peter fellow, were even nice enough to stick around for a bit after the screening to talk to fans, sign autographs and take selfies!



And afterward we saw some more Muppets Most Wanted ads on the way out of town!


Then on Sunday, Kermit and the gang (sans Walter) made their way to West Chester, PA to take over the home shopping channel, QVC. The marathon day of appearances
featured a variety of characters popping up randomly throughout QVC's programs plus promotion for Muppets Most Wanted for over 9 hours! 


As you'll see the antics began BEFORE they even showed up! (enjoy these grabs off the screen, while until we get better quality versions)



And get even crazier once they actually stepped foot inside the building...








As you can see it was a massive undertaking. While some of the pieces were pre-taped, most were live and Zoot and Link even got to made an appearance!

There's actually a small segment that occurred before these clips that we hope to have up soon, as well.  

 As you can see it was a VERY Muppet weekend on the east coast!
