It’d be a great skit, but the gag would get old pretty quick for anything full-length.
Do you’re saying we’d only get seven or eight seasons of it ?
It’d get old by the end of the skit.
I mean that kinda goes for every muppet movie…I’d still watch it
I would. Honestly.
Maybe the first episode could be shot with the famous actors playing it up for the camera, and the rest of the campaign could be just a podcast with the Muppet voice actors and maybe slideshow illustrations for YouTube/Patreon?
I love the original idea, but there’s no way that would be sustainable for the art least hour a week content I feel most podcast subscribers would expect.
I was just saying they’ve tried already…they haven’t made more so I don’t think so
I would rather just have a good normal muppet movie and not a gimmic
I don’t know how you are able to say that with a straight face.
Muppets Movie - Muppet Origin Story
Muppets Caper - Muppets but jewel heist
Muppets Take Manhattan - Muppets run a Musical
Muppets Christmas Carol - Really?
Muppets Treasure Island - Really?
Muppets From Space - REALLY?
The Muppets - The only ‘normal’ movie and it references all the nonsense from the previous ones
Muppets Most Wanted - Criminal muppets
Sir, every single Muppet movie has a freakin’ gimmick.
Holy fuck this is GOLD!
there is nothing that cannot be improved by the addition of muppets
Porn
Edit: people think porn could be improved by adding Muppets?
Have you witnessed the glory of Pterodactyl Porn? (Don’t look up Attack of the Flying Lizard if you have any taste or morals.)
Let my puppets come …was an “adult” movie made with puppets
And was the porn better because it had muppets? The question was “what wouldn’t be made better with the inclusion of Muppets”
There is a certain adult Muppet detective movie with some pretty erm… graphic scenes
And it was a bad movie. It was not improved because of the muppets
Disagree. A few felt jokes landed. Remove those muppets and the film is worse.
furries
it makes sense if you don’t think about it for too long, or think about it really hard
Oh how quickly history forgets the horrors of the past…
Exhibit A: The sex scene in Team America
Those are marionettes not Muppets
I saw it on Broadway during its early run. That’s not porn.
It does have Muppet sex though.
No, it has puppet sex. Muppets are very specifically the IP of Henson studios and that style of puppet I associate with childhood way to much for Muppets in porn to be remotely acceptable. It would be like putting Teletubbies into porn
Unfamiliar with Peter Jackson’s pre LOTR work?
Edit: I totally fucked up this comment. Please disregard. I’m tired. It’s been a long day. I just need sleep. Good night everyone, and I wish you all the best for tomorrow ❤️
I for sure would. Ryan Reynolds as a Bard being played by Gonzo.
Gonzo is DM.
Fozzie = wise cracking Bard
Miss Piggy = Half-Oink Barbarian
Kermit = Elven Ranger
Animal = Wild magic Sorcerer
RolfSam the Eagle = paladinRolf = Druid
Dr. Teeth: BBEG, trying to rule the realm with Electric Mayhem
Rizzo is obviously the rogue.
And Swedish Chef the local barkeep
Honeydew & Beaker run the apothecary shop
I like Rolf, but i think Sam the Eagle would be better a better choice as an uptight paladin.
Agreed. Rolf can be a Druid.
I think you’re trying to align the Muppets to what their personalities would be. Instead pick against type. Or as their off type. Gonzo has been the narrator in almost all the muppet versions of movies. So he’d be great at telling stories and winning over NPCs as a Bard.
Omfg yessss!
ok but hear me out.
this but the muppet babies.
Nanny DM: Animal? Make me a wisdom roll…
Animal: Nat 20! Nat 20! Yayayaya!
Kermit: Erm, Animal? You, uh, rolled a D12…
Animal: Nat 20! Yayayaya!
Kermit: Good grief…
I could have swore this was an actual episode.
actually just found out they kinda did it on the 2018 version (though it was more like larping less d&d) -> sir kermit the brave
So kind of like Drunk History but with muppet dialogue instead of slurred speech?
If so, I’m sold.
It’s a yes from me. Hitting the golden button!
Watch it? Hell, I’d crowdfund it if it wasn’t for the fact that Muppets are a Disney property. The House of the Mouse has more than enough cash to make this work.
FWIW, this format would work with a bunch of awkward teens at the game table.
You could also go the other way and re-release “Honor among Thieves” by constantly cutting away to the game table with hilarious die-rolls and the rest. Think: “Of Dice and Men”, or “Dorkness Rising”.
Good lord this is brilliant !
Drunk history X muppets. There you go
This is brilliant ! I would watch it in a heartbeat.
