Goofs

When the player escapes from the Benbow Inn, the Attic explodes and Rizzo the Rat falls and the player can see him without any pants on and falls into the molasses and blinds the player. After the player cleans off the molasses, after Gonzo and Rizzo talk, they walk off but Rizzo is seen wearing pants and clean clothes. How is it possible that Rizzo found pants for his size given that he fell into molasses bucket and how did he get himself cleaned up so quickly from the sticky molasses.

User Reviews

Excellent, classic muppet movie

This is one of the funniest movies- I quote from it all the time. It has all the clever Muppet jokes and spoofs, and of course great songs. The lyrics to the songs are hilarious. Really a great movie.
