Still by far the best Muppet movie.

I'll never forget seeing this at the drive-in in 1979. The opening shots, Rainbow Connection, the bike riding, Miss Piggy in the beauty pageant, etc. The other thing I remember about this and The Great Muppet Caper especially, were the McDonald's glasses.

As good as pre-ordered.
