OddMay’s Compendium of Odd Things

It is time to share with you … my correct Muppet Princess Bride fancast.

Wesley is Kermit — obviously

Buttercup is Miss Piggy

Fezzik is Fozzie

Inigo is Gonzo — this is where I’m going to get the most pushback. People will say that Rizzo or Pepe should be Inigo. But the core trio is traditionally Kermit, Fozzie, and Gonzo, and Gonzo as Inigo feels so right

Vizzini is Scooter

Humperdinck is played by a human — may I suggest Pedro Pascal

The Six Fingered Man (Count Rugen) is Sam the Eagle — he would be the Six Feathered Bird

Miracle Max is Bunsen Honeydew

Valerie is Beaker

Impressive Clergyman is, hear me out, Janice — she can’t get through the marriage service without going on a tangent

The albino is Animal or Sweetums

The Ancient Booer is both Waldorf and Statler

The grandson is some human child star

And the Grandfather is either Cary Elwes or Fred Savage (RIP Rob Reiner)

Buster Keaton Prepares for the Cricket Season -

Boy's Cinema Weekly, May 4, 1921

[1] "I must understand what the book said: 'Keep your eye on the ball, carefully calculate where it is going to pitch, and play a safety stroke if it is a well-pitched ball and dead on the wicket.' Ah, here it comes! It looks rather swift!"

[2] "I played forward to the beastly thing, but something must have been wrong with the pitch, for the ball shot up to a surprising height, got me a nasty one right in the neck, and gave me a sore throat that I can't shake off.

[3] "I think I had better read over the advice in this book on how to play cricket, as my first efforts don't appear to have been quite as successful as I would have liked them to be: in fact, I might say painful efforts."
