Forget duckface, it’s all about frogface now…
Now this is how you market a movie. Of course, we realise that this is all one big publicity stunt ahead of the release of the much-anticipated Muppets Most Wanted, but guess what?
We. Don’t. Care.
This collection of brilliantly charming, behind-the-scenes Muppet selfies from the official Muppets Instagram account are a simple but ingenious way of MAKING EVERYBODY LOVE THE MUPPETS EVEN MORE. From Kermit’s perfectly executed, arm’s length picture to Gonzo’s wonky nose and its ventilation system doppelgänger, the fantastic photos are proof that the Muppets are obviously completely real and have no need for so-called ‘puppeteers.’ They wouldn’t be ‘selfies’ otherwise, duh.
For bonus laughs, keep an eye out for the excellent personal text that accompanies each of the super snapshots. JOE’s personal favourite? It has to be Swedish Chef’s “Cüffffeee-a ünnndee-ün? Bork Bork Bork!”
We couldn’t have put it better ourselves Swedish Chef.
Muppets Most Wanted is released in Irish cinemas on 28 March and you can check out the trailer here, as well as clips from all of JOE’s most anticipated films of 2014.
Hi-ho, Instagram gang!
Cüffffeee-a ünnndee-ün? Bork Bork Bork!
