The owner of a bank (Miss Bitterman) wants to own the Muppet Theatre so she can build a nightclub over it. After she tricks Pepe into giving her the only copy of the contract between her father and the Muppets, she changes it so the Muppets have very little time to pay a debt they owe. Meanwhile, the Muppets are trying to put on a Christmas show. After the Muppets are confronted by Bitterman, they make a lot of sacrifices to save up so they can keep the Theatre.

This movie is just Muppets 2011 and a wonderful Life but not as good (have not watched a wonderful life), but somehow the Villian is better then the one from 2011

It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie
Its a bit messy and unfocused and noticeably made on a made-for-tv budget, but it's still pretty funny. A something I'd consider a muppet B-Side but a good one
