1.) When the telethon begins, Zoot is shown not wearing his hat in the wide shot of the orchestra, and then is wearing his hat when he blows his note in close-up.
2.) During the recreation of The Muppet Show opening, Janice is seen in the orchestra pit, but is then seen as part of the female chorus. At the ending reveal, Janice is nowhere to be seen in the row of female characters she was in.
3.) When Bobo and Uncle Deadly, are singing “Together Again,” Bobo is seen holding a spray bottle, but when the two are commanded to stop singing by Tex Richman, Bobo’s hand’s are empty. Then, when Bobo and Uncle Deadly are blaming each other for the singing, Bobo has the spray bottle in his hands again.
Okay, so those are pretty much just mistakes. Here’s another one I found NOT on that list, but not that big of a deal… During the “Life’s a Happy Song” finale, after the females sing “We can be whatever we wanna be,” they look to the men. The men sing “Nothing we can’t do.” The lead singer of this is Jason Segel. Except look at his mouth, he isn’t singing at all. GASP!
Okay, now here’s the biggest one. This one is either a giant mistake on behalf of the filmmakers, or there was another plot line that got cut.
You’ll remember the scene where the Muppets kidnap Jack Black in a ninja-style fashion. Let’s list the characters in the car before hand, shall we? We have Miss Piggy, Swedish Chef, Lew Zealand, Animal, Fozzie, Gonzo, Scooter, and 80’s Robot.
Now, let’s skip ahead to the attack of Jack Black…
Who’s this guy in the picture below? The other characters are accounted for, and he’s certainly not 80’s Robot. No. I think it’s Walter. Walter, who, during this ordeal, was back in the Muppet Theater singing with Jim Parsons.
So was Walter meant to join the other Muppets on the heist? Or did someone stuff up somewhere?
Well, that’s that. Someone go put them on Muppet Wiki, please. I don’t know how. Do you think you found a mistake? Let us know!
