Lots of people who’re followers of each Walt Disney World and the Muppets have been in a funk ever since Muppet*Imaginative and prescient 3D closed at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Nevertheless, when destiny closes a door on the Muppet Theater, it opens a window that Gonzo will most likely try to soar by means of. A brand new Muppet attraction is already on the way in which within the type of Rock ‘n’ Curler Coaster Starring The Muppets.
The present model of the attraction, which stars rock band Aerosmith, had been rumored for an replace for years. A couple of months again, it was introduced that the experience would shut early subsequent yr for a Muppet makeover. Disney World just lately dropped some new particulars on the upcoming Disney World attraction, and as an old-school Muppet fan who has needed to see the Muppets take over the Rock ‘N’Curler Coaster for years, I like it.
Scooter’s Uncle Owns G-Power Data In The Rock ‘N’ Curler Coaster
By and enormous, the setup for The Rock ‘N’ Curler Coaster isn’t altering simply because the musical act on the middle is. The storyline will nonetheless see visitors visiting G-Power Data, the place they discover a main musical act is there, however late for a gig. The one distinction is that now the band in query is The Electrical Mayhem as an alternative of Aerosmith, and as an alternative of character actors like Ken Marino and Illiana Douglas, we’ll have Muppets, together with penguin engineers and Scooter.
Nevertheless, my favourite new addition to the story is that we now know what the G in G-Power Data stands for. The rationale the Muppets are actually operating the document label is that it’s owned by J.P. Grosse, the identical man who owned the Muppet Theater throughout the days of the unique Muppet Present, and who can be canonically Scooter’s uncle.
Scooter Was The Authentic Muppet Nepo Child
Again throughout The Muppet Present, it was established that Kermit was mainly compelled to offer Scooter a job as a result of his uncle owned the theater the place the present befell. Scooter would typically passively-aggressively threaten Kermit together with his uncle’s wrath if Kermit didn’t do what his uncle needed.
The uncle, J.P. Grosse, would make his very first look throughout the second season of The Muppet Present, however his appearances have been uncommon. To my data, he hasn’t been an precise character on display in many years.
It’s unclear if we’ll truly see the character as a functioning Muppet. I anticipate his portrait will probably be on a wall within the queue if nothing else, however I really like that this absolute deep reduce Muppet reference is turning into a part of this story.
Whereas I am as unhappy as anyone that Muppet*Imaginative and prescient 3D is gone, I am wanting ahead to what’s to return. Though I’ve to ask, has J.P. Grosse at all times owned G-Power Data? Was he the boss when Aerosmith was there? As a result of if he was… that really solutions a number of questions on that limousine.
