Muppet LOTR - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

This is a wonderful thread

I sure hope that they make a Muppet LOTR version in the future (everyone send letters!). It would rock!

But, oh gosh, I know all these characters but I don't know there names. I love them a lot though. They are all a major part of my childhood, but the old guys, who could they play? Well they could be both Theoden and Denethor. But remember they are always on the side making fun of the major characters (they never, never have major parts). Maybe they could be a pair of annoying people who pop up everywhere. Like they could be beer drinkers in Bree, and people in the crowd during the corination in Gondor.

I think though that Kermit would have to be Frodo, and Fozzy most definitely Sam. They are best buds in all the Muppet movies, so they have to be best buds here (and besides Kermit is much too not brave to play Aragorn).

Stadler and Waldorf would have to take the place of Peter Jackson's kids.

The Argonath would be perfect, though.

Oh, this is awesome!

I think that the two idiot pigs (I think their names are Randy and Andy) should be in this. They're so stupid! I like Gonzo and Rizzo being Merry and Pippin, so I'm not sure who Randy and Andy should be. They do like to annoy Ms. Piggy though, so maybe they should be Celeborn and Haldir if Piggy's Galadriel.

Oooh! Remember the Spamella Anderson pig lady from The Muppet Show? She should be either Eowyn or Arwen, and Piggy should be the other. Then Piggy can get all jealous when she sees Kermit-agorn with Spamella.

Maybe Pepe the prawn (known as 'the shrimp guy') should be Boromir! "You should give me the ring, okay?" "It's a conspiracy, okay?" "I had this funky dream, okay?" "It is a gift, okay?" Then Faramir could be a normal guy, so it'll look really funny when Denethor says that he likes his seafood son over the human.

Elrond should definately be Sam the Eagle. "You must destroy the ring! It is the American Way!... Er... It is the Middlearthian Way!"

THe Swedish chef should be Sauron. His singing fruit could be nasgul. Gonzo could be sarumon and his chickens should be uruks.

If anyone has said these I'm sorry, but I think Animal should be Gollum, Gonzo is Pippin, that ditzy blonde girl in the band should be Galadriel, someone said Sweetums as the Balrog and I totally agree, and Clueless Morgan the goat should be himself just because he's funny.

Interesting...does anyone have any time on their hands? Because I've found I don't.

It'd be great if we could make a tally: Miss Piggy gets so many votes to be Arwen, and so many to be Galadriel; Kermit gets so many to be Aragorn and so many to be Frodo etc.

And if anyone has any new ideas...keep them coming.

Cheers,

I like the idea of the Swedish Chef being Sam... or maybe a nazgul...where'd that come from?

Just wondering if anyone has any new ideas now so much time has passed...
