The Missing Muppet Movie

[mbmfrog]

Funny story i mean it would make a great idea for a full movie if it were to ever happen.

Please do keep up the good work upon such a great idea like this one.

Another post to cover up the fact that I haven't finished part 4 yet!

Since no one seemed to like my murder mystery movie idea I've got some others and was wondering which one I should continue on.

"That Other Muppet Movie"​

Kermit, Fozzie and Gonzo fight to save their beloved little town from a wealthy businessman (Human Guest Star) who has traveled there with his put upon assistant (Miss Piggy) in hopes of tearing it down and putting up his own private airport.​

A Film Version of
"Muppet High"
(Any similarities between my story and prawncracker's is purely coincidental since I came up with my story before even visiting the forum for the first time (so please don't get mad and sue me!))​

Kermit has a triple agenda in this one. He has to help get the school ready for the big homecoming dance, get Fozzie ready to play in the homecoming game and set up his (human) friend with one of Miss Piggy's (human) friends.​

Meanwhile, Gonzo, Pepe and Rizzo go on a search for Hensonville's fabled lost treasure.​

Also included are, The Electric Mayhem as a garage band, Sam as a hall monitor, The Swedish Chef as the home economics teacher, Statler and Waldorf as the the heads of the drama department, Bunsen and Beaker blowing up the science lab and Scooter as a twelve year old high schooler.​

"Once Upon a Muppet Movie"​

When a wicked witch (guess who) and her Mystic Mirror cast a spell over the peaceful kingdom of Frell, the king (take a wild guess) sends The Royal Whatever (Gonzo), the Court Jester (Fozzie), a wandering Minstrel (Kermit) and an unwilling knight on a quest to undo the evil magic.​

Which one do you all like the best?​

 

[JEANYLASER]

I love your murder mysteries movie idea! it's awesome!

 

[ZeppoAndFriends]

That's one vote for the movie I have no title for.

 

[JEANYLASER]

That's ok! ZeppoAndFriends you will find the way to name that title!

 

[ZeppoAndFriends]

Sorry part 4 is taking so long (like anyone is actually reading this), but I am trying to write out the lyrics for a song instead of just describing it and am having a little trouble.

 

[Muppetfan44]

I am actually reading this and awaiting for the next chapter; it's great so far!

I (finally) present to you Part Four of:

FROGNAPPED
(Complete with complementary recliner and little umbrella drink )​

NOTE: Since posting Part Three I have made a change. I have relocated Kermit's vacation destination to Puerto Rico.​

I apologize in advace for any confusion this may cause.​

INT: KERMIT’S ROOM - MORNING
　
CLOSE UP of the alarm clock on the nightstand. It is seven-thirty and the alarm is going off again. Kermit goes through his morning routine again; only when he opens his bedroom door the house is strangely quiet. No flying chickens, no explosions, no one running him over in a race to get to the bathroom, no Animal hanging on the chandelier. Kermit goes back in his room to check his clock. It says that it is now seven-thirty-one. Kermit looks slightly confused and worried at the same time.
　

KERMIT
Hello?​

　
His voice echoes around the room. He hurriedly makes his way down the stairs. He runs over to the kitchen door and shoves it open.

Nothing.

The door swings back at him and knocks him on his rear-end. He recovers and dashes across the room to the living room door and flings it open.

Still nothing.

Kermit runs to the dining room door and throws it open. Inside everyone else is already sitting at the table, calmly eating breakfast. Kermit takes a few uncertain steps into the room.
　

KERMIT
(Cautiously)
Good morning, everyone.​

　

EVERYONE ELSE
Good morning, Kermit!​

　
Fozzie gets up from his seat and walks over to Kermit, who is still standing in the doorway.
　

FOZZIE
C’mon, Kermit, your breakfast is getting cold.​

　
Fozzie begins to usher Kermit to his seat at the head of the table where a covered bowl and the morning paper await. Kermit slowly sits down. Fozzie pulls the cover off the bowl releasing a cloud of steam. Kermit takes a whiff.
　

KERMIT
Hmm, oatmeal.​

　

FOZZIE
With brown sugar and flies, just the way you like it.​

　
Kermit picks up the paper and looks it over.
　

KERMIT
(Surprised)
No teeth marks!​

　

SCOOTER
We made sure Animal didn’t get to it first.​

　
Animal begins to hop up and down.
　

ANIMAL
COMICS! COMICS!​

　
FLOYD
Animal, sit!​

　
Animal abruptly stops hopping.
　

KERMIT
Okay, who are you and what have you done with my friends?​

　

EVERYONE ELSE
(Polite chuckles)​

　

FOZZIE
Kermit, we ARE your friends and as such would
like to present you with this.​

　
Fozzie pulls out an envelope and hands it to Kermit.
　

KERMIT
What’s this?​

　

GONZO
Just open it!​

　
Kermit tears the envelope open and pulls out the plane tickets.
　

KERMIT
Gee, plane tickets.​

　

FOZZIE
Yes they are, frog of my heart. We all felt that
you were long - looooonnnnng -overdue
for a vacation.​

　

KERMIT
I don’t know. Do you remember
what happened last time?​

　
Everyone’s attention slyly turns to the spot in the wall, then snaps back to the goings-on at the table.
　

DR. TEETH
Do not worry, oh great flippered one.
We have locked up any thing that could possibly explode!​

　
Crazy Harry walks by behind Kermit, mourning the loss of his beloved plunger.
　

KERMIT
Then what about that?​

Kermit points and we PULL BACK to reveal that Gonzo’s cannon is sitting against the back wall.
　

GONZO
I’m performing at a company picnic next week.​

　

KERMIT
Well, then…​

　
Kermit looks the tickets over.
　

KERMIT
Why are there two tickets?​

　
Miss Piggy can’t control herself any longer, she explodes out of her chair and nearly knocks Kermit out of his with a hug.
　

PIGGY
That’s because I’m going with you.​

　

KERMIT
(Not sure if he wants to protest)
Well, gee.​

　

FOZZIE
Enough dawdling, Kermit!
You need to start getting ready! Music!​

　
There is a beat and Fozzie, Gonzo, Rizzo, Scooter, Robin, Pepe and Rowlf are suddenly dressed in garish clichéd tourists clothes.
Cue the calypso style number: Aloha! Mr. Frog
　

PEPE
Jou have been working to hard, mon!
Jou need a little break,​

　

ROWLF
Away from the pressures of you life,​

　

RIZZO
And from ‘da give and take,​

　

FOZZIE
The time has come,
For you to go,
On a get away,​

ROBIN
A vacation, Uncle Kermit,
A place where you can stay!​

　

ALL
Aloha! Mr. Frog,
We’ve been a burden,
To poor you for far too long,
You need this trip,
So please don’t drip,
This song away,
We’re sending you,
Where you can watch,
The palm trees sway,​

　

CUT TO​

INT: GROCERY STORE - DAY
　
Kermit is pushing a cart down an aisle, Scooter is reading off a checklist and the others, now in their normal clothes, are loading the cart with the things he reads.
　

SCOOTER
Beach ball, towels, inner tube,
Don’t forget the…​

　
Animal pos up with a bottle of…
　

ANIMAL
SUNSCREEN!​

　

PIGGY
What about new bathing suits!​

　
INT: WARDROBE DEPARTMENT
　
Miss piggy shows off a trendy beach ensemble while Kermit models a simple pair of dark green swimming trunks.
　

PIGGY
You look good in dark green!​

　
INT: KERMIT’S ROOM - AFTERNOON
Kermit is busy packing the suitcase that lays open on his bed. Fozzie and the gang pop up from behind it, once again in the tacky tourist’s clothes.

　
GONZO
A day ago you were to bored,
To see things straight,​

　

PEPE
Jou gotta go,
　
FOZZIE
On with the show,
　
ROBIN
Don’t hesitate!​

　

　​

　

　
ALL
Aloha! Mr. Frog,
We’ve been a burden,
To poor you for far too long,
You need this trip,
So please don’t drip,
This song away,
We’re sending you,
Where you can watch,
The palm trees sway,
　​

CUT TO​

INT: AIRPORT LOUNGE - DAY

　​

The Electric Mayhem, now a steel drum band, plays a musical interlude.

PULL AROUND to see Kermit, Piggy and the gang rushing to the airport gate.
　

ALL
Aloha! Mr. Frog,
We’ve been a burden,
To poor you for far too long,
You need this trip,
So please don’t drip,
This song away,
We’re sending you,
Where you can watch,
The palm trees sway,​

　
FOZZIE
You need to hurry,
Please don’t worry,
We’ll be okay,
Now there’s nothing left to do,
Except to say,​

ALL
ALOHA! MR. FROG!​

　

CUT TO​

INT: PLANE - DAY
Kermit and Piggy are in their seats, relaxing.
　

KERMIT
Wow, time sure flies when you’re in a musical number.​

　
PAN OVER to see the Figure’s Henchman (His name is Steve), his face hidden by a newspaper, looking out of place in a business suit among the hordes of vacationers.




Part Five shall be here swiftly.
