The critically-acclaimed, Oscar-winning movie The Muppets has just come out on Blu-ray and DVD. Starring Jason Segel, Academy Award-nominee Amy Adams, favorite celebrity couple Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy and Walter, the latest addition to the Muppet family, The Muppets is a movie the entire family can enjoy together. The in-home release includes the DVD and digital soundtrack packaged together and a ‘Wocka Wocka Value Pack,’ which contains the movie in Blu-ray high definition, DVD and Digital Copy (three discs), plus a download card which allows fans to own all the songs including Bret McKenzie’s Oscar-winning “Man or Muppet,” from the film’s soundtrack.

Bonnie Laufer from Tribute had the opportunity to talk to Kermit and his new pal Walter via satellite from New York about what fans can expect from the blu-ray, what it was like winning an Oscar, how Walter is keeping his fame in check and much more.
