The Oscar Award nominees have been announced and suspiciously, the beloved Muppets are not mentioned.  Is it an "age thing" because Miss Piggy is not a spring chicken, errr pig, anymore?  Are the awards no longer going "green" and they have a thing about Kermit.  Really?  How can you have a problem with a singing and dancing frog?  Or is there another reason?

In their new Disney film, 'Muppets Most Wanted' the entire Muppets gang hit Europe for some exciting mayhem.  In addition to the Muppets, Ricky Gervais, Tina Fey and Ty Burrell ('Modern Family') reportedly turn in Oscar worthy performances.

So why in the world is "Muppets Most Wanted" being overlooked for over 247 awards?  All I can say is Muppet fans in the Southern Tier are outraged.  So outraged, Hollywood took notice and released a video showing you should not mess with Muppet fans.

See for yourself:
