The Muppets Are Back, And They’re Hawking Volunteerism

On January 8th, 2010

muppetsSo this is only tangentially related to movies, but still, when you consider that someone’s doing something with Muppets again (Disney, for crying out loud, you’ve GOT Muppets, USE THEM!), it’s definitely worth discussing.

Anyway, Disney’s built this whole interactive site around doing good and volunteerism and whatnot, but of course, since they got Muppets involved, it’s really only a matter of time before the whole thing degenerates into an orgy of good natured destruction.

And they really did make it a big deal, too–if you have a fairly common name (Steve worked just fine when I tried it, but testing the system with “Tibor Takacs ended up pushing it to kind of a generic setup) you’ll get a thoroughly personalized experience that includes your first name.

You’ll even get the opportunity to have a small selectable adventure with the Muppets (and putting Animal in a french maid’s outfit is just HILARIOUS), so head on over here and check it out.  It’s great fun, even if your name is a little too weird for Muppets to process.
