It’s time to get things started! This week, The Regular Guy Movie Show is movin’ right along with Jim Henson’s 1979 big-screen debut, The Muppet Movie.

We revisit the movie that brought the Muppets out of the television studio and into the real world, marvel at the practical ingenuity that somehow made frogs ride bicycles and bears drive cars, and talk about why the movie’s combination of dry humor, slapstick insanity, fourth-wall breaking, and genuine sincerity still works nearly five decades later...at least for two of us.

Plus:

• We'll get into the sexual organs of fogs
• Dive into a cavalcade of cameos...and discuss whether they still hold up when most of them are now deceased
• We test our knowledge with a round of Muppet trivia
• The Muppet Movie takes on Alien, The Blues Brothers, Labyrinth, Gremlins and more in Pick Your Poison
• We hand out our Boddicker Award for the characters who brought the most to the movie
• And we answer the most important question of all: How many beers does it take to properly enjoy The Muppet Movie?

So grab your banjo, fire up the Studebaker, and watch out for anyone offering you a career in the frog-leg industry.

It’s time to play the music.
It’s time to light the lights.

It’s time for The Muppet Movie on The Regular Guy Movie Show.

• Why picking a favorite movie is so darn hard
• Some of our go-to genres for movies
• Fun and games looking back on our last nine episodes
• A fun lesson in why ChatGPT should not be trusted to do your script writing

This week, the guys head to Cleveland to revisit one of the most quotable sports comedies ever made: Major League. When a new owner assembles a roster of misfits, has-beens, and never-weres in hopes of tanking the season and moving the team to Miami, she accidentally creates one of cinema's greatest underdog stories.

We break down the movie's unforgettable cast of characters, debate whether it's really a baseball movie or just a workplace comedy in cleats. Along the way, we talk about the film's legacy, its endlessly quotable dialogue, and a few aspects that haven't aged quite as gracefully.

Plus, we build the most ridiculous baseball roster imaginable using characters from every movie we've covered on the show. The results are... something.

In This Episode

• ⚾ Box office and critical reception
• 🎬 Behind-the-scenes trivia and the making of Major League
• 👓 Character and cast breakdowns
• 🪄 Magic Wand: One thing we'd change
• 🧢 Movie League Baseball: Building a baseball team from movie characters
• ☠️ Pick Your Poison
• 🏆 Boddicker Award
• 🍺 Final beer ratings

So grab a beer, sacrifice a cigar to Jobu if that's your thing, and join us as we find out whether Major League still knocks it out of the park nearly four decades later.

Have thoughts on Major League?

⚾ Is it the greatest baseball comedy ever made?

🥎 Does it deserve a spot on the Mount Rushmore of sports movies?

🏆 And who gets your Boddicker Award?
