Jack black is obnoxious but he really did nail the high school girl impression.

Sounds like Drunk History which I've always said would be better if it used muppets.
Drunk history X muppets. There you go
You might enjoy HarmonQuest! Bonus fun fact: the DM was originally just an audience member when Dan Harmon came up with the idea and asked for a DM, but is now a regular cast member.

I would also watch the most recent D&D movie with scenes of the Muppets playing the game spliced into it.

I'd watch that. Maybe add another level of innuendo and add Jack Black and Dwayne Johnson to the cast.
An entire movie with half being lip synced live action sounds awful to make. That's a lot of lip syncing.
But I'm sure there's a bunch of tools and talent out there that could make this happen. And it'd be a fantastic movie.
Foreign dubs are basically whole movies lipsynced from start to finish and that happens all the time.
Also fair. but that actually opens up a whole bunch of opportunity. There could be so many easter eggs hidden in what the live action actors are actually saying, versus what the mupets are saying.
It doesn’t have to be lip synced well… that would be half the charm.
That's fair.
Having watched Kung Pow: Enter the Fist.... Yes.
Watch it? Hell, I'd crowdfund it if it wasn't for the fact that Muppets are a Disney property. The House of the Mouse has more than enough cash to make this work.
FWIW, this format would work with a bunch of awkward teens at the game table.
You could also go the other way and re-release "Honor among Thieves" by constantly cutting away to the game table with hilarious die-rolls and the rest. Think: "Of Dice and Men", or "Dorkness Rising".
So kind of like Drunk History but with muppet dialogue instead of slurred speech?
If so, I'm sold.
Legit this is a fantastic idea
Oh hell yeah. Kermit as DM or Fozzie?
I kinda like the idea of the players constantly antagonizing the DM. Kermit could pull it off but I think he needs to be a player hero to pull off the script.
My dark horse Muppet DM pick is Sam the Eagle
No. Honorary Muppet Tim Curry. Just being himself. The only person not being played by someone else, they're just themselves.
Even better. That way when The Big Bad(tm) comes up it can be Tim Curry!
Gonzo. Gonzo has his own view of the world, which is perfect for running a game.
All the wenches would be sexy chickens
I'm not sure Hasbro, the Hensen estate, or Disney would approve where this is going. But I do.
