The Muppets have a strong history of adapting pre-existing stories while putting their own spin on the narrative. Whether it’s A Christmas Carol, Treasure Island or The Haunted Mansion, the Muppets franchise has somehow found a way to create the definitive iteration of these projects. It’s hard to find a Dickens adaptation with more heart and humor than the Muppet’s take on the festive classics, and even Disney’s recent attempt at bringing the Haunted Mansion to the big screen is overshadowed by the puppet Disney+ release.The Muppets are universally beloved and are well known for their trademark quick-witted humor and irreverent performances. It seems strange that these fictional characters have somehow made their cinematic mark partially because of their adaptations, and it’s important to analyze how they even created this legacy. While projects like The Feebles have tried to emulate some of the Muppets’ success, the comedy group cannot be replicated, and that’s key to their longevity.Adaptations of classic stories might currently be a significant aspect of past and future Muppet releases, but these characters were firmly established as part of their ongoing series. The Muppet Show consisted of superb guest hosts, plenty of wacky sketches and genuine character growth. The original show helped establish each personality, ensuring that characters like Gonzo, Kermit, Miss Piggy and Fozzie Bear were known around the world. Audiences began to form deep connections with these figures, who were treated like real-life superstars despite their fictional origins. That success was moved to the big screen, with the Muppets either playing themselves or stepping into the role of pre-existing characters, as if they were actors looking to hit a home run at each opportunity.RELATED: Disney Is Focusing on the Wrong Movies for Its Live-Action RebootsRELATED: Disney’s Haunted Mansion Mirrors an Even More Terrifying Horror Movie
