I saw someone mention Rocky Horror performed by and i can't stop thinking about it.

Obviously Kermit & Piggy would be Brad & Janet, but who would you cast in the other roles?

@mdmrn Frank-N-Furter would have to be Gonzo. He’s the freakiest muppet.

Eddie: Animal. Maybe Sweetums.

Riff Raff: Rizzo

Rocky: Link Hogthrob

Magenta: Janice

@adhdeanasl @mdmrn Fozzie Bear as Rocky instead?

@jspath55 @mdmrn It would definitely work as a gag

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@adhdeanasl @jspath55 I agree on Gonzo as Frank N Furter.

Personally, I kind of like Dr. Teeth for Eddie. But, Animal could be hilarious in that role too. Either way I still kind of like Janice from Electric Mayhem as Columbia over Magenta.

Part of me really likes Scooter and Skeeter for Magenta and Riff Raff :Hehe:

OH! And Professor Bunson Honeydew for Dr. Scott...maybe that's too on the nose

@mdmrn @jspath55 The great thing about the muppets is that they’re all utility players

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@adhdeanasl @jspath55 It's true! :diolaugh:

I mean, Rowlf could also be a really fun choice for Eddie.

And a truly hilarious choice for Rocky - Pepe the Prawn.

Related - if you told no one the cast and just cast in Sam the Eagle as Frank N Furter who then plays the role entirely deadpan. Picture it. Picture Sam the Eagle dressed as Tim Curry was in the film :diolaugh:

@adhdeanasl @jspath55 You can't un-imagine it now, can you? :MaguChan:

@mdmrn @adhdeanasl This reminds me of the mash-up videos with Oscar doing Tom Waits songs.

@adhdeanasl@beige.party avatar

@mdmrn @jspath55 Rowlf as Eddie would be classy as hell

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@adhdeanasl @jspath55 I know, right? He'd absolutely class up that role.

adhdeanasl,
@adhdeanasl@beige.party avatar

@mdmrn @jspath55 What if Eddie is the entire Electric Mayhem band, and Magenta is Carlotta the chicken?

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@adhdeanasl @jspath55 I like it. I like it.

I also like having Statler & Waldorf serve as the criminologist together. But let them be as snarky as they always are as they narrate.

@adhdeanasl@beige.party avatar

@mdmrn @jspath55 Don’t let Disney see this until you have copyright

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@adhdeanasl @jspath55 Yea, cause if I failed at that - I'd have to go with my second choice: an all Smurf Rocky Horror cast

And that's just not as fun.

Except for Papa Smurf as Frank N Furter...obviously.

@jspath55@chaos.social avatar

@mdmrn @adhdeanasl They'd be like the 007 Blofeld: bump one off and the other takes their place.

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@jspath55 @adhdeanasl Statler: Hmm, their dancing in that Time Warp song hasn't been half bad?
Waldorf: Yea, it's been all bad
Both: :diolaugh:

@adhdeanasl@beige.party avatar

@mdmrn @jspath55 Statler: is what Frank N Furter wearing what I think it is

Waldorf: of CORSET is

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@adhdeanasl @jspath55
Statler: This is a night out they're going to remember for a very long time.
Waldorf: I wish I didn't have to!
Both: :diolaugh:

@adhdeanasl@beige.party avatar

@mdmrn @jspath55 @adhdeanasl @jspath55
Cast: 🎶There’s a fire burning in the fireplace🎵
Waldorf: Maybe it’ll spread!
Both: :diolaugh:

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@adhdeanasl @jspath55
Janet (Piggy): I don't like men with too many muscles.
Statler: Not going to be a problem here
Both: 🤣

adhdeanasl,
@adhdeanasl@beige.party avatar

@mdmrn @jspath55
Frank N Furter: It's Not Easy Having A Good Time. Even Smiling Makes My Face Ache.

Statler: if I had a face like that, it would hurt, too!

The Muppets’ Statler & Waldorf laughing

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@adhdeanasl @jspath55 I love literally everything about Statler & Waldorf narrating Rocky Horror.

Heck, I'd love to see them watch the actual movie & just make commentary like this. Or other movies.

Statler & Waldorf's version of MST3K.

adhdeanasl,
@adhdeanasl@beige.party avatar

@mdmrn @jspath55 I was just thinking the same thing. They could have an entire series. Pick classic cult films and just go to town on them

Waldorf: I’ve been rooting for the guy with the chainsaw since the kid in the wheelchair opened his mouth!

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@adhdeanasl @jspath55 I mean, with what Disney owns now - including that deep 20th Century Fox film collection and LucasFilms options, the possibilities just are endless.

Statler & Waldorf making fun of Star Wars or Moulin Rouge.

adhdeanasl,
@adhdeanasl@beige.party avatar

@mdmrn @jspath55
Waldorf: why is the guy in the mascara called Sparrow?

Statler: that’s the size of his brain!

adhdeanasl,
@adhdeanasl@beige.party avatar

@mdmrn @jspath55 Imagine what they could do with Marvel!

Statler: “Ant Man?” Guy acts more like a funny uncle!

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@adhdeanasl @jspath55 Right! So many options out there.

@GreakKingRat@piaille.fr avatar

@mdmrn
Gonzo as Frank’n’Furter
Animal as Eddie
The Swedish chef as Dr Scott
Janice as Columbia

As for Magenta and Riff-Raff i really can’t tell.

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@GreakKingRat Solid choices all around.

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

Okay, talking with @adhdeanasl about this idea and after going back & forth with jokes about Statler & Waldorf I think the greatest idea emerged.

Statler & Waldorf just watching movies & making fun of them, MST3K style.

Come on, Disney. Make this happen.

Sam is obviously going to be the narrator.
