Why Muppet Treasure Island is peak Tim Curry cinema

[@flamewave64]

Muppet blood Meridian would be the best thing ever I genuinely think that Jim Henson would have been intrigued by the idea with how he was always trying to push muppets into more mature settings

[@nikolasperez7745]

Still wanting them to make The Cheapest Muppet Movie

[@t.z2359]

2 things, I wold prefer if the muppets just had a western movie. I wold love it if The Judge was a puppet. A puppet designed to be as human as possible.

[@LovablePWNER]

Dude the beginning song of this movie is amazing

[@AbrasiousProductions]

it really is!

[@dannydevito5729]

Margaritas at the midnight buffet!

[@killingtimeonline]

I read somewhere that Michael Caine's performance was so good because he saw the muppets as fellow actors, and Tim Curry's was so good because he saw himself as a fellow muppet

[@rosykindbunny1313]

Words can't describe how much I love this

[@brandonspain12345]

This is probably my favorite Muppet movie. I'd argue it had the most funniest jokes than The Great Muppet Capper. And that's also because of Tim Curry in the mix as well.

[@animegamesaidan9364]

Yungjunko, PSP game reviewer turned muppet movie enthusiast. Either way I’m here for it!

[@thomasciuffreda8783]

I'd love a Muppet Sherlock Holmes. Although there's been a lot of Sherlock parodies.

[@brandonspain12345]

I'd like to see them do Muppet Beauty & the Beast where instead of the enchanted objects, they're the Muppets. Belle and the Beast would be played by celebrities to keep it faithful with Christmas Coral and Treasure Island's style by having a lot of elements from the original fairytale with the Muppets all throughout for comedic effect.

[@ryko1478]

I think there's a Sherlock Holmes skit in like episode 4~ of The Muppet Show

[@MelStaub]

This movie has my favourite joke in all of cinema, dead Toms death

[@partydude388]

LONG JOHN SHOT HIM!

[@treiz01]

He will be remembered by Tom, Old Tom, and Really Old Tom

[@gmg9010]

Tim Curry makes this movie 110% better.

[@Definitelynotacelebrity]

Puppets doing stunts will always make me laugh. The visual of a lifeless foam body being bucked out a window is so funny.

[@ser777XD]

5:16 not gonna lie, that face made me smile big time

[@AbrasiousProductions]

the opening theme song STILL sounds so unnecessarily epic

[@adrianscoot8913]

These recent movie videos have been so engaging and fun. Seriously Junko this is so good

[@Mustafa70116]

Professional Pirate is a banger of a Song with Tim Curry.

[@BugsyFoga]

Pretty neat how this film ended with a song by Ziggy Marley .

[@Medennial]

Loving the Muppet content

[@allye9865]

Love Lead Us Here is a banger imo. All the songs are great in this

[@tuxb]

4:10 Miss Piggy is the Ben *Grim* ? Stand in 😆 .. Gunn. But otherwise, great video always loved Tim Curry in this movie

[@partydude388]

She is built like Michael Chiklis

[@inkspill3116]

Been waiting for this video ! Ever since I saw your fire Treasure Planet videos and that you made muppet videos I knew you would make this one. Another wonderfully presented video from YungJunko 10/10

[@geraldineyorarou2221]

The Old PC point and such Muppet treasure Island game I'll never forget wakawakkw

[@ozharms]

This movie is often overlooked but it’s still a really fun movie. TIM FUCKING CURRY THOUGH HOLY SHIT Also I think the reason Piggy didn’t get much screen time was because Frank Oz was busy directing movies. For his other characters, namely Fozzie and Sam, were performed by other puppeteers but voiced over by Frank. However, Miss Piggy is one of those characters that you really have to be giving it your all to truly play well. So it’s hard to be doing that if you’re only voicing the character. Luckily he was able to come in and perform her for a little bit.

[@Basile.BowBow]

Tim Curry is so fun in this one, the scene where he and his pirates are playing with the booty in slow mo while Smolett and Benjamina are singing about their love is insane

[@thefollowingisatest4579]

I vine with your critiques, but "Shiver My Timbers" and "Professional Pirate" slap hard.

[@TheCartoonCatastrophe]

Junko HOW did you read my mind? I literally woke up today and was like "I should re-watch Muppet Treasure Island"

[@AbrasiousProductions]

I liked this one as a kid but I agree it's one of the most "aggressively okay" entries

[@compassrose1466]

I remember watching this one on loop as a kid idk why it was so mesmerizing but it had me drawn in

[@lucasstchur5441]

Not joking I actually watched this prior to this vid inevitably coming out. For sure a classic

[@andywinslow9638]

Love this movie. Made me a fan of Tim Curry and the Muppets. Also the first movie I saw in theaters.

[@NucleaRaptor]

Peak currykino

[@thatonea-hole]

Tim Curry being his peak at hamming it up!

[@kasey446]

Tim Curry, Clueless Morgan and Blind Pew are the best parts of the movie lol

[@samvimes9510]

It's been a very long time since I've seen this one, but Muppet Treasure Island was hands down my favorite Muppet movie as a kid. I'm surprised I didn't wear out the VHS tape as many times as I watched it. This movie was also my introduction to Tim Curry, which I suspect is true for a lot of people in their 30s.

[@andywinslow9638]

It's partially true for me. I saw him in Annie first but this is how I was introduced to him as who he is and why I became a fan.

[@CharuzuAutomatonArtificer]

Muppet Treasure Island was one of my absolute favorite movies as a kid. Made me love Tim Curry as an actor. Plus it's hilarious

[@saiko_1]

The song in the beginning is soooo good!

[@austinmitchell2652]

When the blind muppet enters the tavern at the start of the movie, that part was SO TERRIFYING to me as a kid. Having rewatched it recently, I definitely agree that some of the songs are kinda pointless.

[@rosykindbunny1313]

Cabin Fever haunts my soul

[@SenorHomeslice]

“Ah theenk ah schmell shometheeng buhrneeng!”

[@FatFiber8096]

If you think this is peak Tim curry cinema you’ve obviously never seen the rocky horror picture show

[@seanburrell4870]

Hans Zimmer doing the soundtrack is greatly underrated

[@allye9865]

One of my fave movies!

[@VolcanoMonsters]

Muppet blood meridian sounds like a somehow more horrifying “Meet The Feebles”

[@partydude388]

"Boogie boogie boogie.. I am the ghost of Samuel Arrow.. BOOGIE!!"

[@Saiintniic]

Junko you did it again! Another certified banger

[@JuliaDelbel]

This Muppet movie didn't have enough Muppets in it for me.

[@Cdr2002]

Miss Piggy is Ben Grimm? This is a wild Fantastic Four take

[@matthewbolitho-jones]

I like Muppet Treasure Island

[@Mordecrox]

Tim Curry? Muppets? Under 10 minutes and under 100k subs? You had my interest but now you have my attention.

[@nicholascooney]

Junko Muppet videos are incredible

[@MatecaCorp]

The movie peaks with the opening sequence

[@Muppetman1230]

This is why Every movie should be muppetified, Muppet Inception next

[@bigbangbot-SuperSqank]

When the world needed him most, he returned.

[@dragoon1090]

I watched this VHS so much I destroyed it. I love Tim Curry.

[@Kittenfox_55]

I think I first saw this movie half way on an airing on ABC Family.

[@Brundelkarf]

I hate cabin fever, but I can‘t stop listening to it.

[@rodolfoboimarinho6504]

Great video!

[@ryanklaus2970]

Love your channel

[@rosykindbunny1313]

Tim Curry fucking CARRIES

[@montanajackson3713]

I’d love a muppet Robin Hood or muppet beauty and the beast movie.

[@justintuffo2801]

i miss tim currys actin & voice actin style soo much his screen presence is like 6 star dinning experience

[@lucasstchur5441]

Can we at least agree that Professional Pirate is a phenomenal song?

[@bradpotts1747]

"what books should we adapt?" right to McCarthy as war intended

[@blankadams3120]

4:11 "Miss Piggy is the Ben Grimm stand in"... Miss Piggy is The Thing? Did you perhaps mean Ben Gunn?

[@YungJunko]

I did but I left it in. Glad you caught that lol

[@greenhowie]

Honestly it's difficult to say if this, C&C Red Alert or Rocky Horror is peak Tim Curry.

[@jeremyusreevu237]

All Tim Curry cinema is peak Tim Curry cinema.

[@thatonea-hole]

🎵 *YO-HO! YO-HO!! A PIRATES' ☠️ LIFE FOR ME!!!* 🎶 🏴‍☠️ 🦜

[@organicketchup5171]

Let's have 'Muppet "Naked Lunch"'.

[@Negameleon]

You gotta do Dark Crystal!!!

[@Gruntvc]

The TNT made for tv film adaptation of Treasure Island from the late 1980s is the best one. But Muppets Treasure Island is great too. Tim Curry makes just about anything better.

[@bhumibolrushing7830]

I love this one

[@snowycity]

yuh

[@thatonea-hole]

Tim Curry carries this movie on his back & that's true!

[@mr.funnyguy1164]

YES PEAK IS BACK!!!!!!!!

[@novelezra]

We need Muppet Treasure Planet.

[@GCBBQ]

I spent 350 bux on a tim curry long john silver replica has.... nuff said

[@Rampage1328]

You're nuts. This movie is awesome.

[@saml302]

this video comes dangerously close to Muppet Treasure Island slander... still gets a like, but watch out!

[@bighead6855]

The roll call scene and dead tom steal the show

[@joaquinm9148]

Nah everyone knows Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas is peak Tim Curry cinema

[@glorckus503]

[@matthewburger2801]

Muppet Lord of the rings sounds like a horrendously awful idea. I want to see it.

[@hondaaccord1399]

SHSPAECE!!!

[@maldon3659]

When I was younger, I thought Jim was a girl mostly because of his voice and general look

[@atb4255]

Woahoh!

[@Kenthis15]

“I like Jim.” “Jim’s relationship with Silver never connects.” That’s because Jim SUCKS.

[@rosykindbunny1313]

I feel like he connects more with the Muppet characters than the human characters

[@coleaugust4792]

It’s mupping time

[@3L_B4R7O]

Nice

[@thomaskuzma4360]

I am sorry, and yes this is all nostalgia based, but I love this movie to death ad its quotable to death

[@marvelousball]

So better than Muppets take Manhattan

[@Sam0Ra1720]

BBBBBBBBBLOTCH THE BULLY BULLFROG!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤯😳😱😨💀

[@spookynoble4391]

OMG OMG OMG! I have watched this video on KZbin with G SMOKE 🐐🚬0⃣3⃣😜 and Black Peter Griffin and it was awesome! I love Kermit, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, Pepe the King Prawn, Gonzo and Tim Curry but not this movie! I don't even watch or care for this movie but I prefer Muppet Christmas Carol! ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐

[@marvelousball]

Do you need help man

[@mysticalkeyblade759]

I love this film but the only thing that I don’t like in the film is Jim’s singing voice. It’s too high and annoying

[@hawktalon7890]

Hey I think I love you. But like platonically.

[@AbrasiousProductions]

I don't dislike the actor but the I found the kid's acting lacking and his singing was annoying.

[@TheFreakDownStreet]

It’s a fun muppet movie but a weak treasure island movie.

[@forrestdupre87]

The book is better
