Viral Video Watch: The Muppets Take (er, Fake) Hollywood

Posted by Michael Waltzer on June 20, 2011 05:45 PM

"Is this another Muppet trailer parody? Why don't we just show a real trailer? I mean, what are we hiding? Did we make the movie in Swedish or something?" says Jason Segel in Being Green — the third (and final?) fake trailer for The Muppets movie (above), this time parodying the new Green Lantern movie.

Just two days after its release, there's finally an official trailer for the new Muppet movie.

The official trailer, below, comes on the heels of two earlier parodies: a trailer for a fake romcom (Green With Envy) that was released last month, and The Fuzzy Pack, a a Hangover 2 parody.

The REAL trailer is about the Muppets making a return into show business. The trailer promises "There will be action, there will be adventure, and there will be heros..." The film is slated for release this Thanksgiving, and as the trailer warns, "Get ready for MUPPET DOMINATION!"
