The Blues Brothers
From Muppet Wiki
The Blues Brothers is a 1980 film comedy directed by John Landis, based on characters from Saturday Night Live and starring John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd.
At the beginning of the mall sequence, a man in a Toys R' Us checkout line is holding a Grover and an Animal doll, while Kermit dolls can be seen on the shelves in the background. He asks if the store has a Miss Piggy, just before the Blues Brothers' car careens in.
