forever sick and tired of people bringing up the muppet christmas carol when talking about interspecies muppet reproduction

the kids kermit and piggy "have" in that movie are not hypothetical children they could have. they're actors. in all the muppet adaptations of classic literature the point is that the muppets are acting. kermit is acting as bob crachit, piggy is acting as emily crachit, and so on and so forth. it's literally in the opening credits. tiny tim isn't kermit and piggy's child in an alternate universe. it's robin, kermit's nephew, playing the part of tiny tim.

please use actual canon muppet material and muppet interviews in your reseach

the reason Michael Caine and Tim Curry are so good in their respective Muppet movies is that Michael Caine treats the Muppets as fellow actors, and Tim Curry treats himself as a fellow Muppet

discuss

The notes on that last Muppet poll I made made me realize that most people seem to mistakenly believe that Muppet adaptations of classic literature are parodies, which isn't true. you have to everything dead straight. in fact, the key to making a Muppet adaptation is to be so faithful to the source material that it's more accurate than 90% of other non-Muppet adaptions

#muppets #the muppets #muppet christmas carol #muppet treasure island #outdesign posts things #the only muppet adaptation that's a parody is muppets wizard of oz and we don't talk about that one #muppet adaptions are allowed to be funnier in tone and might cut down on the amount of death a bit. but the plot beats are usually on point #greatest hits

So we've all heard of the "I Want Song" genre in musicals.

But what about the "Let's talk about the bitch behind their back like they're not in the room" song, or "singing s*** behing a bitche's back". There's a surprising amount of them.

"Belle" from Beauty and the Beast

"Scrooge" from Muppet Christmas Carol

"Maria" from The Sound of Music

"Look at Me I'm Sandra Dee" from Grease

"You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch" from How The Grinch Stole Christmas

"Jackass In a Can" from Galavant

"Phony King of England" from Robin Hood

"Stepsister's Lament" from Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella

"Non-Stop" from Hamilton

And, of course, the man, the myth, the legend...

"We Don't Talk About Bruno" from Encanto

You can learn a lot about a character and story from what they sing versus what other people sing about them.

director of The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992): okay we need to costume both our puppets and humans in something festive and Victorian. but you know. no need to go crazy. it’s a kids’ movie, after all

costume designer, snorting a line of coke off an 1843 issue of Le Bon Ton fashion magazine: right, right

#muppet christmas carol #(the joke is that the costumes are SCRUPULOUSLY accurate for no reason at all)#like if I'm remembering the Abby Cox video correctly they copied a really specific type of smock popular with British working-men #of the day #for a costume Rizzo wears in one five-minute scene #drug use

Muppet Fact #938

According to Brian Henson, "Inside the Muppet Company, [they] love to hate Bean Bunny." This is why he is often the subject of so much Muppet violence.

Friday, December 15.

'Tis the season.

'Tis the season indeed. The season to snuggle up and submerge oneself in the world within a world of endlessly charismatic anthropomorphic puppets. These are puppets with a taste for the absurd, an immaculate sense of style, bouncing mouths, and wide eyes. They are otherwise known as The Muppets, and there are no two ways about it: everyone loves The Muppets. Don't they?

The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992)? Muppet Treasure Island (1996)? The Muppet Movie (1979)? Get comfortable. Anything goes.
