To be completely honest I've seen some not terrible ideas in some comment threads on Reddit over the years.

Some of those couldn't be worse than some of the crap Hollywood has been producing.

    I don't believe there's a shortage of new ideas in the industry, writers are creative. Producers however are the actual problem: they're the ones refusing to pony up the money to make anything other that dross.

    The princess would be Ms piggy and Kermit would be the dread pirate Roberts/Westly

    You are absolutely right! I just thought as-you-wish/an-ni-mal/i-love-you would be a funny gag.

    • Sweetums is the giant for sure.

    • Is Rizzo right for Vizini, or should he be human?

    • And for Inigo, Gonzo? He’s got the arms for fun rapier work; I think we saw some is treasure island. Inigo Gonzales?

    • The six fingered man is probably a token human.

    • The prince could be human too, or maybe Fozzy.

    • Miracle max… Pepe the prawn? There is probably a better fit out there.

    • OMG! Bunsen and Beaker working on the life sucking machine!

    But How do you safely puppet Sweetums in a holocaust cloak, in a wheelbarrow, on fire… 🤔 There will be no survivors…
