  The Muppet Movie - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Almost immediately, he is pursued by the conniving Doc Hopper (Charles Durning), owner of a struggling french-fried frog legs restaurant franchise who has set his sights on Kermit as a potential new mascot.
After Kermit and friends manage to evade Doc Hopper's schemes a number of times (adding several more Muppet characters to the group as they progress from scene to scene), Doc Hopper responds by capturing Miss Piggy in order to lure Kermit into his clutches.
Kermit is very nearly lobotomized by a mad scientist's (Mel Brooks) electronic cerebrectomy device, intended to brainwash him into performing in Doc Hopper's TV commercials, until Miss Piggy manages a last-minute rescue with some flbelt karate maneuvers.

I really like this band (photo, right), but some of their newer material (I haven't heard the new album yet) seemed kind of slow and more experimental.
