"He died? And this is supposed to be a kids movie!" In "Cabin Fever" one Muppet proclaims that he'd like to get his hands on whoever wrote the script. Probably other scenes I don't remember.

In the song Cabin Fever (where the 'joke' is that they've become mentally ill from being at sea becalmed for so long) there are background human male characters dressed as women. They aren't directly spoken about I think.

The native tribe on the island is depicted with a lot of discriminatory stereotypes. Several other minor characters are also depicted with various ethnic stereotypes (e.g. a character who dresses and speaks as a stereotypical Mexican).

Not sure where else to put this, but there are harmful indigenous stereotypes when they find the native pig muppets on the island. (e.g. Indigenous people being unintelligent.) Felt difficult to watch.

Guns pointed at many of the muppets during a few scenes, also other weapons brandished towards others (e.g. swords, a brand, explosions).
