Not sure who would be a better Ripley — Aughra or Deet. I’d pay money to see either.
Muppets Requiem for a Dream
Clue: keep Tim Curry.
(I debated Tim Curry and Madeline Kahn, but Tim’s role needs the contrast, and every one of these I have seen is “keep Tim Curry”, regardless of the movie. OTOH, Tim Curry basically is a muppet – in the best sense! – so I suppose you could keep both. Or keep Michael McKean and Tim Curry. ).
Legend, but keep Tim Curry.
That may make it a Dark Crystal movie but WTF, eh?
BTW, people, don’t forget Farscape when seeking Muppet characters.
Pepé the Prawn would make a good sandworm:
Poltergeist
Keep Oliver Robins as the possessed clown doll. Kermit as Steve Freeling, Piggy as Diane Freeling, either Gonzo or Janice as Tangina, Scooter as Carol Anne.
“Your mother sock puppets in Hell, wokka wokka wokka!!”
For that role I think we need a muppet known for his voracious appetite.
