Disney Plus: 15 Biggest Movies Missing At Launch
10. The Muppets Take Manhattan (1984) & Muppets From Space (1999)
There are several Muppets movies - and TV shows (though not the original The Muppet Show, sadly) - on Disney+ at launch, but there's at least two big omissions (and one a little smaller).
The Muppet catalogue jumps from The Great Muppet Caper right to A Muppet Christmas Carol, skipping The Muppets Take Manhattan, despite its popularity (not just with fans but also critics). And then later film Muppets From Space - the first non-musical release - is out too.
You could suggest that comes down to studio involvement - the former was distributed by TriStar and the later by Sony - but then The Great Muppet Caper was released by Universal, so it's all very confusing.
There's also no place for Elmo's Adventures In Grouchland.
