My family sat around the fire the other night casting our Muppet Lord of the Rings. Decided Aragorn would be the one human, Kermit would be Legolas because the idea of him getting stuck in his bow and firing himself as an arrow with his arms flailing everywhere made us laugh for a solid five minute. Gonzo and Rizzo as Pippin and Merry. I forget all the others because we were trés high but it was a fun time.

the fact that we as a society have the muppets and they are not everywhere in our cultural consciousness is appalling. why aren't the muppets hosting the oscars. why aren't the muppets commentating the olympics. why aren't the muppets coming to a theatre near me every year with a new adaptation of a classic novel. genuinely what are we doing.

#we fought over Piggy being Eowyn or Arwen #both are great. she would make such a great secret warrior and imagining her delivering the ‘I am no man’ line come on that’s gold #but also her just MADLY flirting with Aragorn and calling him Gornie or something #and Legolas Kermit getting jealous #Fozzie as Gimli is funny because he’s like the exact opposite of a dwarf #and him being shocked at his lines and stage direction all ‘you want me to do WHAT? oh no NO!’#everyone kept trying to shove Beaker and Animal in but all I could think was Animal as Denethor #the fucking tomatoes
