The Usual Suspects.

Beeker is Kayser Söze.

Kermit is Dave Kujan.

Animal as Kobayashi.

The rest of the cast I don't have much opinion about.

Also, Reservoir Dogs: Ms. Piggy as Blonde and Kermit as Orange are the only roles I have strong feelings about.

Fozzie as Mr. Brown (just thinking of the Madonna speech in his voice)

I am genuinely surprised Disney hasn't done Muppet Star Wars.

https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_402:_Crystal_Gayle

Episode 402 Pigs in Space: Dearth Nadir Gonzo plays Darth Vader Gonzo-style

Die hard, "kermit the cop here in the vent".

[–] EdWoodJaBlowmie@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Maus by Art Spiegelman. Gonzo plays the son and Kermit the dad of course. The others can fill in for the rest.

Aladdin and the Magic lamp. And I'm not talking Disney's animated Aladdin storyline turned into a Muppet movie since they did a live action of it already that wasn't bad.

I'm talking the actual original storyline.

Aladdin - Human or Kermit

The genie of the ring - Fozzie bear, or Fozzies the sultan.

The genie of the lamp - Gonzo (This one's the most important in my opinion, "Yyooouuu haaavveee summoned the great Gonzo, genie of the laaammpp!)

Abu - Rizzo

Jasmine - could be miss piggy or human

Jafar - Sam eagle? Not really sure who'd be a good Jafar
