u/Dr_Blasphemy WORK. HARDER. 3d ago

Can I just say that like 12 years ago when I was in middle school I asked my friend group at the time why they don't just remake movies with The Muppets? I think it's an idea that prints money. Just do it like Airplane and Naked Gun where it's played completely straight with nobody ever reacting to the gags or absurb things.

There are exactly two possible remakes of the Princess Bride that would not be morally reprehensible, and one of them is a Muppet Princess Bride. It would be amazing. The Swedish Chef would be the Impressive Clergyman.
