Can you tell me how to get to 'Occupy Sesame Street'? Grover's in trouble!
Spawned from the far-more-serious Occupy Wall Street movement, which has now spread to 25 cities, the Occupy Sesame Street spoof has invaded the Web. It's about time Kermit and the gang stood up for employee rights at the Jim Henson Workshop.
A while back, the trailer for the hotly anticipated English version of 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' was released -- and people loved it. Set to Trent Reznor's cover of Led Zepplin's 'Immigrant Song,' most were impressed by its slick editing and frenetic pace.
Now the people behind the upcoming movie, 'The Muppets,' have done a trailer of their own that pays homage to the buzzy clip. It shows scenes in the same stylish, lightning-fast way, and although they couldn't use the music from the original, they gave props to the writer of the tune they could use.
A while back, we told you about the upcoming 'Muppets: The Green Album,' and mentioned that rockers OK Go would be among the artists revamping classic Muppet songs.
The group dropped their video for 'The Muppet Show Theme Song' this morning, featuring some very special guest stars.
In anticipation of the new Muppets movie, a group of artists have covered some of their classic songs on 'Muppets: The Green Album.'
Many of the tracks were first heard on the TV series 'The Muppet Show' and various Muppet films, performed by the felt puppets themselves (voiced by Henson and Frank Oz). The new generation of recording stars covering tunes like 'The Muppet Show Theme Song,' 'Rainbow Connection' and 'Bein' Green' includes OK Go, Weezer, The Fray, and Evanescence frontwoman Amy Lee.
