I can already hear Ishmael’s opening monologue in Kermit’s voice. I kind of want to cast Rowlf as Dantès tho.

Omg our reading group had a whole thread on this but Ian McShane is genius!! Nick offerman was another good option I remember. More comedic tho obvs.

I *really* want to sit down and cast this one properly when I have a second…

Dr. Strangelove— Gonzo replaces Sellers Kermit as Turgidson (Piggy as Miss Scott) Fozzy as Ripper Statler and Waldorf as the Russian Ambassador John Goodman as Major Kong

Muppet "Breaking Away." You want Kermit & crew on bicycles? Here they are on bikes for 90 minutes!

Nothing is gonna beat Angela Collier's Muppet Star Trek Next Generation fantasy casting.

the whale is sweetums

Can't believe you didn't mention Muppet Dracula smh

Okay but what if it's a series of A list actors doing their Kermit impression

I prefer Muppet Napoleon, as written by @emilyscartoons.bsky.social

He can call Kermit Ishmael "Jonathan" for the entire film and not technically be wrong, since we never do find out Ishmael's name

Sweetums as Queequeg.

Great timeline.

"What do you hear?" "Nør dëng bø deyr røyan."

IT WRITES ITSELF.

And Kermit is the whale.

Muppet Book of the New Sun with Kermit as Severian and Diego Luna as Vodalus promises to be wild

bsky.app/profile/robd... Hear me out: instead of Ian McShane, Rob Delaney

Lew Zealand has to be one of the harpooners

And Albert de Morcerf, who did NOT die

I’m tagging @timbaltz.bsky.social to manifest this into existence

The Wizened Master is Bunsen and his cohorts are all Beaker clones but in black with the hats of course of sad flutes

Animal Mother's casting should be obvious, but who plays Private Joker?

My personal favourite was muppets Gullivers Travels with Timothy Chamalet

Sorry -- Janice , not Janet, of course. Was thinking of a friend.

I'm crying because we could have had it all.

1) brilliant! I will be first in line at the box office for all of these! 2) every single film MUST have Tim Curry in the biggest non-Muppet role 3) I do have one note: THE COUNT OF MUPPET CRISTO was just sitting right there....

o/` here comes mister blow hole, here comes mister fish able seaman Bunsen Honeydew is never seen again after being overboarded for attempting to correct marine facts about whales this one was the last straw because it broke the song's meter

Ok, that is perfect. Anyone got any contacts at Disney?

Miss P in the Mary Astor role

We must RETVRN. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvAc...

Muppet Pride and Prejudice would be 🔥.

Ok, but The Muppet Goonies. Kermit :“It’s our time down here.” And Janice as Steph. “I feel like I’m babysitting except I’m not getting paid.” To OP, you just made my week with this greatest post ever.

I'd go with The Three Musketeers if you're doing Dumas. Kermit: D'Artagnan Athos: Fozzy Bear Aramis: Scooter Porthos: Gonzo Constance: Miss Piggy Cardinal Richelieu: Gary Oldman Rochefort: Crazy Harry

None of the above, Muppet Odyssey with Gonzo as Odysseus.

It'd be the first Muppets movie with Fozzie as the main character.

Wouldn’t Sam be the obvious choice here ?

Muppet Shawshank Redemption Kermit as Andy, Rolf as Red, Sam the Eagle as Byron Hadley, Miss Piggy as Raquel Welch, Waldorf as Brooks Hatlin and with Nic Cage as the prison governor
