Dune, but replace all the Fremen with cats.
Netflix, call me.
So to summarise the pitch:
MUPPET DUNE
All the main cast are Muppets. The Fremen are all real cats. Sardaukar are real geese. Sandworms are giant CGI Emus.
Baron Harkonnen is the only main character who is human. Played absolutely serious by Jack Black
@garius the 'nip must flow.
Why CATS? If you did mice you could rip off "Maus".
@garius Fennecs would be fitting
Not fennec foxes?
@garius This is the best idea ever! Has Netflix called you yet?
@garius @johnweeks But have you seen the Grumpy Worms?
@garius
Genius!
Although the Fremen & Sardaukar might have to have some difficult and complex discussions in later seasons...
@garius What is it with Muppet movie remakes today. My wife shared a Beauty and the Beast pitch with me earlier. The Beast is the only human, good looking but universally described as ugly by the Muppets, and in the end, he turns into a Muppet to the delight of all.
(The context was: better remakes for Disney to make than these "live action" ones. Disney even owns rights to the Muppets, so no licensing fees.)
@garius Take my money.

@garius I’d watch the heck out of that!
@garius yaaas Janice as Jessica, Floyd as Leto, reverend Mother Gonzo Helen Mohiam. Rowlf as Thufir. Bunsen as Yueh. Beaker as Nefud. Sweetums as Rabban. Animal as Gurney. YOU YOUNG PUP. AAARGH YOU YOUNG PUP.
@garius actually swap Rowlf and Bunsen. Rowlf in “veterinarians hospital” character as Dr Yueh, and Bunsen Honeydew as Thufir Hawat. Beaker as Piter de Vries. Scooter as nefud. Pepe the crayfish as Feyd-Rautha. #MuppetDune
Once again Animal a Gurney. MOOD. *PANT* *PANT* MOOD IS FOR FUNKY TIMES. YOU FIGHT.
@garius AND Fozzy The Bear as The EMPEROR OF THE KNOWN UNIVERSE
@garius you didn’t have me at all until po-faced Jack Black scheming against cats, flanked by geese.
And the soundtrack is all filks of "Jesus Christ Superstar."
@garius @markdennehy stop talking and take my fricking money NOW.
@garius Super disappointed to learn that you are not, in fact, describing a real film that already exists.
What I love about this is you don't have to know anything at all about Dune - just 'Muppets' & 'Jack Black' together will have people lining up out the door and down the block to buy tickets. 
@garius please add Michael Caine as Padishah Emperor Shaddam IV, but never have him talk to Baron Harkkonen.
@garius obviously his daughter remains a muppet.
@garius it’s Paul played by Kermit, and Princess Irulan by Miss Piggy?
