The Muppets have a new job! They've been recruited to tell cinema audiences to pipe down. And we've got the video to prove it...
Ordinarily, we find that people who chatter their way through a film are not those who make their way onto our Christmas card list.

AMC Theatres in the US earns extra bonus points off us, anyway, for using The Muppets in its latest pre-film trails to get people to shut up during a film. This, friends, is brilliant, and we hope they sign The Muppets up permanently to keep making little films such as this.
