    Billy Bones saying he's got the horrors is yet another example of this being the darkest Muppet movie. It's an old-timey way of saying he's getting delirium tremens, or alcohol withdrawal so severe that you hallucinate. Can actually be fatal. If I remember correctly that was taken directly from the book.

    To explain the line Gonzo says of "A five year mission boldly going where no man has gone before" Is the opening line said in the original Star Trek series.
    Mrs. Bluveridge is Jennifer Saunders who you'll know as the voice of Fairy Godmother in Shrek 2.
    The guy who plays Billy Bones is proud to be the only person to die a Muppet Film.
    You heard Tim Curry sing as Dr. Frankenfurter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
    Yes, Pirates are still around. Somali Pirates were who attacked Captain Phillips and held him and his crew captive. The lead one is still in U.S. prison.
    The pirate who said "I couldve been a contender" is a reference to the Marlon Brando film "On the Waterfront" it is a line Brando says in the film.
    There is an end credit scene of Long John on the island dealing with bad sea jokes from a tiki head.

    Fun fact: this was not Tim's first time as a pirate. He played the Pirate King in The Pirates of Penzance in the '80s. Just brilliant and an absolute gem.
    As I've said recently on FB:
    "After growing up with this film, is it any wonder that I have a thing for voices and sound? Seriously. Hearing Tim Curry when I was a tiny child then Alan Rickman as I was a teen. As an adult, I'm always keeping my ears open for sultry voices."
    I have a decent list of voices that just do it for me. Tim's definitely towards the top.

      VHS stuck around longer than most people think. I believe the final movie released on VHS was Pixar's Cars in 2007. However some companies, mostly in parts of Asia, didn't actually cease production of tapes and VCRs until 2010 or 2011.

He and Dame Judi Dench were in a movie called "Mrs. Brown" about how Queen Victoria and one of her favorite servants had a close relationship. That summary doesn't do it justice; it's a phenomenal movie that I've watched many times. The guy's a stand-up comedian but he holds his own against one of the best actresses in the world!

    I have never clicked on a video so fast !This is one of my absolute favourite kids movies and I still watch it as an adult. I’ve gotten to meet and talk to Tim Curry twice at conventions and he has said in numerous interviews, this is one of his favourite movies of his. The songs are great and Tim Curry is just perfect in this role! He just fits so well with the Muppets! Also we get Billy Connelly who proudly boasts to be one of the few if not only character to die in a Muppet movie
    And you have heard him sing before. When I met him I got to tell him how this was my favourite movie growing up, but I’m from a musical theatre family so when my parents deemed me old enough to watch the first little bit of Rocky horror picture show, you can imagine my horror when they told me this man dancing around in heels and women’s lingerie was my beloved Long John Silver 😅. He laughed at that!

And I know you don’t normally do this, but I really think you should react to other movie adaptations of Treasure Island, specifically the ones from 1950, 1990, and Treasure Planet. They’re all the same story, but each one is a different experience that I’m sure you’ll enjoy.
