I like watching videos where people watch a classic movie for the first time and react on camera. Anyway, on one such video for The Princess Bride, a commenter said that it should never be remade unless it was done as a spoof by the cast of another franchise, like the Muppets.
PNQ: Do you think a Muppet Princess Bride would work?
Miss Piggy would certainly put her own spin on the role of Buttercup. Gonzo would be Inigo, of course, with Rizzo pretending to be a giant. Statler and Waldorf would be Miracle Max and his brother, etc.
The framing device with Kermit and Robin would have to be tweaked a bit to fit the uncle/nephew relationship, but it could be done.
