Movie Trivia/Goofs

A deleted subplot followed Statler & Waldorf who turned up at various points in the movie to comment (and heckle) the main action.
Jim Henson was determined to use the larger budget of a feature film to push the technological limits and capabilities of puppetry. One of the most difficult feats (and one that appears deceptively easy on-screen) was making Kermit ride a bicycle.
Movie Goof (continuity error): When Fozzie and Kermit first stop in front of the church they are facing one way, after they fall asleep they are facing another.
The song "Never Before, Never Again" was originally sung by a professional singer dubbing in for Frank Oz (as Miss Piggy), but the producers did not think her rendition was as funny as Frank Oz's version.
