Positive aspects of the product (pros): Entertaining Queue Line, Fun 3D Effects Cons: Corny
I like Muppets 3D and I really enjoy the pre-show queue line. There are quite a few "jokes" among the props and wacky antics on the video screens to keep you entertained while you wait. Look for A Net Full of Jello!
The seats in the theater are comfortable, but if you've seen Muppets 3D before, it becomes a bit corny after the first couple viewings. For me, it's a way to get off my feet for a few minutes in air-conditioning. It's a few steps below Mickey's PhilharMagic.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Pre-show Cons: dated movie
I love this attraction. Even though some of the information in the movie, is out-dated, it's still a fun attraction. THe pre-show and the waiting area is the best part. I love walking around looking at the gags.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): sight gags and fun Cons: I couldn't think of any cons
This attraction is packed with fun from the fountain outside to the line to the preshow and the actual 3-D movie. Next time you go, read the posters and signs in the queue area. Since there's rarely a line anymore, most people miss this. Don't forget to read the labels on the boxes in the preshow area.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Brilliant film, Jim Henson's final directorial project, funny and timeless Cons: There should be more Muppet attractions.
This is a favorite. It was the last film Jim Henson directed and his fingerprints are all over it. This is a timeless, funny and clever movie that is as good today as when it opened. The animatronics could probably use a refurb, (or better yet, replace them with puppeteers lip-synching to the show track!) but the building is in great shape and has lots of hidden jokes in the pre-show area. Take a look around and have fun!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): queue, classic muppets jokes Cons: who are the muppets
Really fun show starring the muppets. If you even remotely like the muppets then you will love this show. Unfortunately, my kids only knew who Kermit, Miss Piggy and Fozzie were. Would love to see the muppets back in the mainstream, but that doesn't seem likely.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Great cutting edge entertainment . . . 20 years ago Cons: Extremely old technology that hasn't changed since the park opened
Let me start with this, I love the Muppets. But this is on the verge of just plain lazy on Disney's part. A 3-D movie that spits water on you is fine fun but it's nothing special. Several large malls have higher end 3-D movies now. To leave something so entry level without any sort of rehab for 20 years is unacceptable.
Here's a great idea, how about shooting a new 9 minute 3-D movie at least once a decade. By those rules we should be on our third re-incarnation by now.
If you haven't seen it, go ahead and enjoy it, it's great the first time. (I can't imagine this applies to anyone that's reading this though.)

Positive aspects of the product (pros): cute show, entertaining Cons: 3D techology poor, needs updating badly
Fun movie and a good place to relax in the air conditioning, but the 3D technology is really inferior to other similar 3D features WDW has such as "Mickey's Philharmagic." The film quality looks really grainy too and could use some restoring. Plus, along with the fact that the Muppets have faded away in pop culture over the past 10-20 years, a lot of the jokes feel old and stale. This attraction is in dire need of revamping.

This is a classic attraction that never fails to appeal to newer generations of Disney fans year after year. Hilarious Muppet comedy and enough surprises to entertain anyone.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Very funny!! Cute muppets!! Cons: Dated technology
The humor of this attraction is top-notch!! The best part is that it can be funny to both kids and adults without resorting to bathroom humor or pop culture gags. I also love the muppets and think they are one of the great parts of our pop culture. They do need to update the attraction, though. I'm afraid of what might happen if they replace the movie, which is the only way I can see the 3D technology getting better.

A great show for those who love the Muppets. I grew up watching them and feel like I'm taking a bit of a trip back in time when I watch it. Very cool.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Humor, themeing Cons: younger folks may not know the muppet characters
This was the last major project that Jim Henson worked on. That alone is enough for me to give it a 10.
Our 5 yo enjoyed it as much as I do.
Make sure you check out the theming in the preshow and postshow areas, lots of little jokes in the signs.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): the queue and pre-show has many hilarious gags Cons: 3D glasses do not fit well over my prescription glasses
It is worth spending the time to examine the nooks and crannies of the queue and pre-show area to discover all the gags, although many will go over the heads of the younger guests.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Love the Muppets! Cons: None
Maybe it makes me nostalgic since I grew up loving the Muppets, but this attraction always brings a smile to my face. Take some time to enjoy the queue--there are tons of funny gags throughout. For me, this attraction never gets old even though I've seen it many times. It's great for all ages.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Very Funny Cons: That little 3D character they add - boo!
Make sure you get there early to check out the video pre-show, which is just as funny as the 3D movie inside. That little 3D guy flying around really gets annoying quickly, but all that is tempered by some really great adult humor - such "a tribute to all nations but mostly America." Good lines throughout.

The show is cute but not Disney's latest technology. The #D is old and needs updating. It is worth seeing if there is no wait.
