Mr. Snuffy just sayin'

[temperance14]

So not know what prompted it, but Mr. Snuffy responded to one of my comments with his Snuffleupagus voice: "Now, Big Biirrd..."

I listened, and pointed out: "Your Mr. Snuffleupagus is starting to sound like Jack Nicholson."

insert pause of a few beats here....

"Really? How so"

Tried to duplicate the sound, but I just can't.

Mr. Snuffy: "What kind of accent is Jack Nicholson?"
Temperance: "I dunno---somewhere between New Jersey and Northern California"
Mr. Snuffy: "Where is that--Wyoming?"


But, if you can get the sound in your head of classic Easy Rider-Five Easy Pieces-Chinatown Jack---that laid back yet coiled to strike tone of Jack....just sort of rolling out and punching up the cadences of your average Snuffy imitation.

"Now, y'see, it's like THIS, Biiirrrd..."

Just sayin'.

*****************
Addendum: Which means, if we recast Easy Rider or Chinatown with Snuffy in the Jack roles, what other Muppets are in the cast?

I predict Animal will be on a chopper...

I can picture Animal AS a chopper...

....big long arms sticking out, hanging on to one little wheel....

*insert Muppet soundtrack of Animal here: "AUUUGGHH! YARRGH! Magic Carpet Ride! YYAAAAHHH!"*

I can totally picture Grover as the Henry Fonda character and Rowlf as the Dennis Hopper guy.

I think you mean Peter Fonda---but good call.

We could re-recast the film with Henry Fonda from Grapes of Wrath, in place of Peter Fonda's character.
Which would end up being Kermit.
