Animal’s Five Rules of Cool

LIVE LOUD!!!! – Anything worth doing is worth doing at high-decibel – sing, express your opinion, or wear a really loud sports coat – let people know who you are and where you’re headed.

EAT NOW! – Choose not to “stay hungry” in life – don’t put off rewards and gratification. Devour life – literally.

FRIENDS! – Good friends watch your back, take care of you, and always follow your beat – make sure your life is filled with good friends.

ROMANCE! – Choose a more subtle approach to finding love – shouting “WOMAN! WOMAN!” only works for some.

NICE BUNNY! – Find what makes you feel safe – a quiet space, a “Nice Bunny,” soaking in pond scum like Kermit, or wearing tapioca-filled tap shoes like Gonzo. Whatever it is, embrace your bliss; just don’t squeeze too hard.

On vacation in Los Angeles, Walter, the world’s biggest Muppet fan, his brother Gary (Jason Segel) and Gary’s girlfriend Mary (Amy Adams) from Smalltown, USA, discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman (Chris Cooper) to raze the Muppet Theater and drill for the oil recently discovered beneath the Muppets’ former stomping grounds.
