Frank Oz and Jim Henson ad-lib as Fozzie and Kermit in this test footage for the first Muppet movie, and honestly it’s pure gold.
This is a professional shitpost roleplay.
I’m crying becuase this is something I’ve never seen before, something original of that era of the Muppets with both Oz and Henson working on one of my favorite movies, but also becuase this is the funniest thing I have seen in mONTHS.

Pitch: Muppet Lord of the Rings. Miss Piggy as Eowyn. Imagine her just throwing herself at a human man playing Aragorn. Imagine her defeating the Witch-King of Angmar by going “HI-YA!” and karate chopping him.

Throwing herself at Aragorn
Then Kermit arrives as Faramir and she just bodily pitches Aragorn offscreen
Aragorn is, of course, played by Viggo Mortensen reprising his role
(Gollum falls into the lava of Mount Doom)
Statler: If you ask me Gollum’s the lucky one
Waldorf: The lucky one?
Statler: He doesn’t have to be in the movie any more!
Both: DO-HO-HO-HO-HO-HO!
you all are ignoring the genius that is this post
FOZZIE: “Don’t you leave him, Samwise Gamgee!” they said to me, and I WON’T!
KERMIT: Thanks, Sam, that means a lot to me.
FOZZIE: And besides, you still owe me that buck twenty-five you borrowed for coffee in Bree.

MISS PIGGY: All shall love moi, and DESPAIR!
TERRY GROSS: Have you heard the Muppets version of “Bohemian Rhapsody”?
BRIAN MAY: Yes, of course, of course!
GROSS: It’s really fun. Can I play that for our listeners?
MAY: Yeah, you can. Well, we’d had to have heard it because it’s us on the record. You know, they asked us if they could do it. And they said, “Look; we can sing this, and we can perform it. But we can’t really play it. So can we use your actual track?” So…
GROSS: Oh, I see. I see.
MAY: Generally we don’t let anybody do that. But in this case, because it’s the venerable Muppets, we said, yes, we’ll do that with you.
