Awesome / Muppet Treasure Island

• Blind Pew, when he first appears, makes one Blind Mistake (I mean, visually-challenged mistake) after another. When Billy Bones cocks his pistol, Pew does an amazing flip and pins Billy to the wall, pointing the gun to the floor.
• Mrs. Bluveridge holding off the pirates so Jim and the others can escape. Bear in mind that these pirates are armed with guns and swords. She, on the other hand, is using her bare hands to take them on.
  • When she rolls up her sleeves, giving the pirates a mighty Death Glare. She then starts things off by kicking several of them.
  Mrs. Bluveridge: [ holding onto the doorframe and boot-fucking at least three pirates ] GET OUTTA MY INN, YOU TATTOOED MISERIES!!
• The Villain Song "Shiver My Timbers". Also the other Villain Song, "Professional Pirate."
  DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES.
• The Squire (Fozzie) being saved by... the little man who lives in his finger.
• At the climax, Long John is holding Benjamina at gunpoint, and Kermit dramatically comes to her rescue.
• After Kermit's sword goes flying, and Jim and the whole gang come to his rescue, including Rizzo! And they all look rather dashing to boot!
  • ...... Kermit can FRIGGIN' FIGHT WITH A SWORD! When did he practice that?!
  Kermit: Not bad for an amphibian!
  • And in a rare moment when his froggishness isn't just cosmetic or grounds for one-liners, he makes some impressive leaps while rushing into battle.
• Gonzo defeating Jacques Roach using starfish as shurikens!!
• Long John Silver going from "tied up and receiving a death sentence" to "back in charge of the mutineers". In less than a minute.
  • Tim Curry's entire performance is just wonderful to watch. Like Michael Caine before him, Curry manages to give a sincere, effective performance whilst remaining in the spirit of a Muppet film.
• Sam the Eagle dual wielding cutlasses in the fight scene, as well as swinging into the action with a sword clutched between his...beak.
  • The fact that Sam the Eagle's version of Mr. Arrow was, and still is the only version to live all the way to the end of the story.
• Jim standing up to Silver at the end of the movie. This young boy, while being held at gunpoint, is holding the signal whistle up to his lips, ready to alert the rest of the crew of his former friend's escape. Captain Smollet/Kermit was right. "[His] father would be proud."
• Jim is serenaded about the honor and glory of being a pirate by Tim Curry and still manages to turn him down. If anything proves the boy's moral fiber, it's that.
• Sweetums revealing he was Good All Along by coming to the heroes' aid in the climax, explaining his actions by being genuinely shocked they thought he was with the mutineers.
  Sweetums: Are you kidding? I love you guys!
• The "Love Led Us Here" sequence for not only making us fear for Smollett & Benjamina's lives, giving us a powerful romantic sequence, making us feel & share in the joy and triumph of the pirates obtaining the treasure, and being absolutely hilarious! It manages to simultaneously present the viewer with half a dozen conflicting emotional states, express all of them wholeheartedly, and not undercut a single one. It should not be possible, but they did it.
