It’s Not Easy Being Green Lantern In The Muppets Parody Trailer

by Halle Kiefer

Anyone else have the distinct impression that The MuppetsGreen Lantern parody trailer might be better than the actual Green Lantern movie? Okay, so it’s not just us then. As their most recent parody trailer (following their Hangover trailer) suggests, Kermie would definitely not take any more karate chops to the face if he was suddenly wielding alien superpowers. Well, he’d take fewer at least; he’s still just a kindly frog at heart. The trailer also gives us a sneak peek at the villainous leanings of Statler and Waldorf, and the flame-wielding heroics of the Swedish Chef. Despite Jason Segal‘s attempts to reassure to American public, we’d still see this movie if it was filmed in Swedish. After all, at least it doesn’t have all those unsettling CGI aliens.
