Directed by: James Frawley
Starring: Frank Oz, Mel Brooks, Jim Henson, Jerry Nelson, Richard Hunt
Audio problem: Fozzie and Kermit are driving right towards Gonzo and Camillia. When Fozzie says, "Yeah, cute huh?" if you look in the mirror, his mouth doesn't move.
Audio problem: When Doc Hopper drives up to the town and some of the muppets are in the bus, Fozzie says "oh no" but it is Scooter's mouth that moves.
Audio problem: When Gonzo is flying over the countryside with the balloons, his mouth never moves during all his lines except "Ah this is the place to be. Whoopeeeeee!"
Other mistake: Whenever Fozzie is driving the Studebaker, the movements of the car don't correspond to the way he moves the steering wheel (he tends to crank it back and forth a lot).
Question: In the middle of Kermit and Fozzy's song "Movin' Right Along", they meet up with Big Bird who says, "I'm on my way to New York City". Is this meeting on another movie starring Big Bird or am I sadly mistaken?

Answer: This is Big Bird's only movie where he says this line. It is a reference to his going to New York hoping to get a role on Public Television (the station that created "Sesame Street") This is verified in TV interviews with the late Jim Henson and on Wikipedia.
