[graham-tails]

I just watch an unusual trilogy:

1. Trolls: Band Together

2. The Original Muppet Movie

3. To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar

Things they have in common:

First two have a character named Floyd who is in a band

First and third both reference Menudo

Second and third their destination in Hollywood

All three are roadtrip movies

I really like this new game of free association movie marathon

Things they have in common with other movies:

Third has a character named Bobby Ray and so does Sweet Home Alabama

I feel like going with actors is cheating a bit but third also has Patrick Swayze who is in Dirty Dancing and John Leguizamo who was Luigi in the 1993 Super Mario Bros.

Almost Famous and Spoke Signals are other road trip movies

(there’s a lot more but this is what I thought of)

[eminsunnytoons123]

Since i have now made Camilla, afghan hound And baskerville hound's redesigns, I Said that i'll now post my headcanons for the muppets! =^///^=

And for the sake of enjoyment And creativity, i'll risk it for all my besties/Brothers And Sisters/pen pals And for some more muppet fans =^_^=

And also im still thinking about more headcanons for them, just give me time to think ^///^; And i'll post the part two either tommorow or later! =^v^=

Lets start!

Kermit the frog:

• he is 22 years old in my AU, but he acts very mature for his age

• he is pansexual And polyamourous, he is dating miss piggy And fozzie

• he likes little jingle Bells, so thats why he has some on his Boots

• Uses prounouns he/him, but some muppets call Kermit an "it", mostly Constantine

• his parents AND over 3000 siblings have been seen in some episodes, but some of his siblings dont have lines

• he plays his banjo on the top of the boarding home And sings the rainbow connection song

• he still has his iconic And polite personalities, but he sometimes gets annoyed when some insults him, but not always

• he sometimes accidentaly calls Clifford a "she", but Clifford actually doesnt mind nor does he care about any prounouns that the muppets call him

Fozzie bear:

• he is 24 years old in my AU, but he still acts goofy And silly like always

• he is queer, pansexual And polyamourous, And he is dating Kermit And miss piggy

• he doesnt only use Rubber chickens, he even uses any circus-related stuff

• he uses his water flower to spray others as a prank, oh! And he LOVES april fools Day

• he secretly likes hello Kitty and any silly cartoons, And he has an hello Kitty pin on his hat

• his jokes can SOMETIMES be funny, but theyre most of the time horrible And bad, And others always groan, roll their eyes And get annoyed by fozzie

• he likes anything thats colorful And that has rainbow colors in it

Miss Piggy:

• she is 23 years old, but he acts just the same And mature like on the muppets

• she is bisexual And polyamourous, And she is dating Kermit And fozzie

• she LOVES the 70s, 80s And even 90s women Fashion, especially if they have Pink shaded colors in it

• she has her pet Foo-Foo the dog, but she even has Gloria estefan as her pet

• she likes any bracelets And necklaces that have pearls on them, but even any kind of Crystals on them

• she is french-british in the Group, but she mostly says "moi" like always And speaks some french words in her sentences

• she practices karate, And she always tests it on one of the muppets in the boarding home, except for the children/kids

Gonzo the great:

• he is 22 years old in my AU

• he is pansexual And non-binary, And they is dating Camilla the chicken

• gonzo uses any prounouns, but most of the muppets call him by "he/him/his" but gaffer the pirate Cat calls him an "it" And by "they/them"

• they likes doing their nails, he has his nails colored in a non binary colors flag

• he even does acrobatic tricks, not only anything thats dangerous, even sometimes Circus tricks

• gonzo has an tail, with an blue fluff on the end of it, just like how Clifford now has an tail

• he isnt only interested in girl chickens, but sometimes roosters (not in an zoophilic way.)

Rowlf the dog:

• he is 29 years old in my AU

• he is bisexual, And he is dating selena the brunette haired whatnot, who is a straight Lady but she supports rowlf being bisexual

• he sometimes gives Texas vibes to other muppets

• baskerville And Afghan hounds are his most close friends in the boarding home, but he gets annoyed by baskerville And his singing

• he is pretty much interested in any classical music that have piano music in it, like Mozart

• rowlf can sometimes be pretty sarcastic in the Group, like for example when someone tells him something exciting, he says: "okay, And?" And he Chuckles, but doesnt mean it in a rude way

Pepe the King prawn:

• he is 21 years old in my AU

• he is pansexual, genderfluid and polyamourous, And he is dating Rizzo And yolanda

• he has an childhood toy named topo sticky, even tho topo sticky COULD sometimes talk in the muppets, on TMS:LITBH he doesnt talk nor move. And Pepe sometimes gets embarassed when some of the muppets see him with his childhood toy topo sticky

• his actual name is Pepino Rodrigo Serrano Gonzales, because he had two mamas And one Papa (IN MY AU.), but some of the muppets found it hard to remember his real name, so Pepe just told them to call him "Pepe". But some of the muppets call him by his real name, like Mildred huxetetter And some other pretty much older And mature muppets in the boarding home

• he likes doing ballet, but not wearing male clothes for the ballet, only female clothes for the ballets like what ballerinas wear

• he sometimes does his acts with Seymour, but not only that, he even hangs out with him

• Pepe has an short wavy red hair unlike an spiky hair

Rizzo the rat:

• he is 21 years old in my AU

• he is bisexual And polyamourous, he is dating Pepe And yolanda

• he has an colorful hair with neon rainbow colors, but his actual hair color is either Dark Brown or blonde

• they has an patch on his tail because he Got Hurt when he was Younger, he was probably bitten by a cat And he even Got stitches because that Cat nearly ate off his tail, but only the top of it

• he is even a demiboy, And he uses he/they prounouns

• he infact does have hair in here, And before in the muppets his hair was NEVER shown

• he sometimes Chuckles And laughs at pepe's ballet, but he still loves him

Yolanda the rat:

• she is 21 years old in my AU

• she is bisexual And polyamourous, And she is dating Rizzo And pepe

• she has an puffy And more longer blonde-yellow hair unlike in her original version

• she is an perfectionist for makeup And Fashion, just like miss piggy

• she had an EX-boyfriend named William the rat, but then he wasnt Hanging out with her And he secretly had another girlfriend And he was clearly cheating on yolanda. It is pretty Unknown what happend to him, but here is an picture of William on yolanda's door of her room And it has an knife on it. And in the first episode of TMS:LITBH, she told Pepe And Rizzo this (read the scenario):

Pepe: "I dont know if deadly's asleep, okay?"

Rizzo: "how do you not know if deadly's asleep!?"

Pepe: "I dunno."

Yolanda: "you two are stupider than my EX boyfriend."

Rizzo: "wait! You have an EX?"

Yolanda: "well... I had him, I had that idiot named William. Now he is in his grave."

• so yolanda probably either joked about that William's in his grave, or she either really killed him, And its based on this comic I made on second of november 2023

• she loves colorful bracelets, And she has three of them on her tail, And one on her wrist

• she likes baking muffins, cookies And small cakes

• she likes doing hairstyles, makeup, putting dresses on and any iconic And fashionable clothes, And she likes reading magazines And being with Rizzo And pepe

• bunsen sometimes tests his new Experiments on beaker, but beaker doesnt get hurt or anything

Beaker:

• he is 28 years old in my AU

• he is bisexual And he is dating dr bunsen honeydew

• he sometimes gets nervous And scared when bunsen wants to try his Experiments on beaker, but he doesnt get Hurt nor does anything bad happen to him

• he sometimes even says: "beep!" Or "boop!" And sometimes even "hello!" And "bye-bye!"

• he likes gently petting small Animals, like kittens, bunnies, parrots... Etc

• he doesnt now wear an Scientist suit on TMS:LITBH

Thats now all my headcanons for the first two parts! I'll make the other parts tommorow =^_^=

[ragnars-tooth]

Ok I picture the general vibe of the clay dragons being just very Generally Creaturey?? Like maybe you don't immediately think 'clay' or 'dragon', but you do understand that these are living things that also double as ornaments. They could go more stuffed toy in appearance for that like 'childish'/fake vibe. A lot of the understanding that these characters are made of clay would come from context clues (i.e that liz is a potter and we see her make them) rather than the texture of the puppets.

They'd still have to articulate like puppets so the dragons can talk and do actions, but it would be much more muppety in nature - hands on sticks or wires, and the head is just a big sock puppet. Think how kermit the frog emotes and moves. The idea here is just simple character design. It might even look like liz or lucy are puppeting them at points - its just quite clear that these things need external help to move, though the pupeteers wouldnt be visible on screen.

The goblins in labyrinth are all very simple mechanically, but visually more complex. They actually look like something unlike the muppets I chose lmao. You could maybe get more personality in the dragons this way. This group in particular is just how the pennykettle dragons are <3

The scale of a lot of the dark crystal puppets is super unnecessary for this but stay with me 💀

This style would work really well especially for any living dragons (should this real adaptation hit book 5) and I think that could echo down in the clay dragons and grockle (foreshadowing innit 😎). (An aside for anyone unfamiliar: these puppets are man sized, they are fucking huge. Iirc the skesis were 2 people per costume, they're a lot more like human actors in their mannerisms etc.)

Post ✨️David believing✨️ the clay dragons get more complex. They're still small, but they're not so obviously hand operated anymore - the ideal would be for them to look like they aren't puppeted at all. More articulation - actual fingers? (Claws, rather) Their wings get segmentation instead of being flat felt pinned to the body, etc. The eyes actually move where they're looking and the puppets breathe. Still stylised of course, but noticeably different from book one.

I will be honest I've run out of steam but can elaborate at a later date!

Aside: bonny is either a really shit puppet for maximum comedy or the only real animal (also for maximum comedy). I don't know if its funnier for him to be a rug with googly eyes or just a real life cat.

I would truly be happy with any tldc adaptation but in my heart it's made by the Henson company and the dragons are all elaborate dark crystal/labyrinth style puppets. Maybe they get a bit muppety in their clay form/before David and the audience ✨️believe✨️ but then they become more detailed. The polar bears are just like. Real though (realistic stage puppets like war horse.... or real ass bears, pick your poison this isn't happening anyway)
