Issues:

• References: Ref. 76 - AV Club should be The A.V. Club

That's all! Great work, fix issue and it'll pass. TBrandley 15:30, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Further comments

• The Muppets has received positive reviews and became one of the best-reviewed films of 2011. What does best-reviewed mean? It had the best reviews or that it received the most reviews. Either way it is looking like WP:Synth.
• The Marketing section should be turned into prose and is lacking some references.
• Although it was the fourth Muppet film to receive an Academy Award nomination, this was the first time a Muppet film had won an Academy Award and the first Muppet film nominated for Best Original Song since 1981's The Great Muppet Caper and the first time a Muppet film in general had been nominated for any kind of Academy Award since 1984's The Muppets Take Manhattan. Four "Muppet films" and three "Academy Award"s in one sentence. AIRcorn (talk) 06:01, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
• References 107–12 need more information - publisher and accesss date, certainly. Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 22:21, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
• The lead seems quite slight compared to other artcles. I expect it could be expanded with more detail on conception and development. I think the "Pre-release criticism" section should come before the "Critical reception" one, based on chronological order. Also, the filming section contains a lot of short paragraphs--consider combining some of them. The sentence "Scooter's scene in the Muppet reunion montage was filmed at Google's Zurich headquarters in Switzerland." does not have a reference. There are also no references for the last two paragraphs in the "Marketing" section. Glimmer721 ^talk 00:27, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
• Another unsourced sentence: "In November 2011, Brooks Brothers announced that it had designed a custom wardrobe for Kermit the Frog for the movie." Glimmer721 ^talk 00:37, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

• Still untouched. I think this should be failed. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:54, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
  • Agree. I will fail. TBrandley 23:56, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
