    I love how Robert tells Zack the news that he's going on the Muppet film. I call that an instant insult.

    So he can hate on Mel Gibson, but no one can hate on Zach Galifianakis. Yeah, that makes sense.

    And I haven't "hated on" Mel Gibson.

    @IamBATMAN. Actually, it's more like 'he finally makes it big and now he's hating on people..." And we'll see how his career goes in the future before I give him his "made it big" dues.

    This is great news. I've been looking forward to this movie since they announced Jason Segal was writing it (his Dracula puppet musical was insanely brilliant). This just makes me want to see it even more.

    How odd, I remember an article with Robert stating that Zach can't act. That he hated being in the same scenes with the guy.

    Now that's two people instead of one.

    At least Zach is funny... wait for it.... looking.

    @Cyn I second that.

    The Muppets should immediately protest his inclusion, and have him replaced with The Grouch from Sesame Street doing the cameo instead...

    Cool, but I have to agree, Zack should have sucked it up and dealt with it - if anything for the sake of comedy.

    I hope Mel appears and whack Zach with Floyd Pepper's base guitar. I think that would be funny.

    Yeah, I have to say I lost a little bit for Zach for his Gibson bashing. Not cool Zach, Mel would have killed in that role!!

    I dunno, after him being a cry baby over Mel Gibson, Zach G went down a couple pegs in my book. He's still funny, but a little too sensitive.
