My Pitch to Disney: Mix the Muppets With Marvel's Spider-Ham!


I only know about the Spider-Ham character from advertisements seen in 1980s issues of comic books like Heathcliff, but I would love to see this pig superhero revived by Disney. It could be a great franchise for the Muppets! Marvel's Spider-Ham could be turned into a new Muppet character and Miss Piggy could play his love interest. Kermit the Frog could even be the villain for a change--Green Froglin! Would a Spider-Ham attraction not be amazing to see as part of the Muppet Studios at Disney's Hollywood Studios? It would essentially be a spoof of Universal's Spider-Man ride---sort of like how the proposed Muppet Movie Ride in the 1990s would have been a take on the Great Movie Ride.

Disney, hire me already.

  1. They should replace the Muppet Vision 3-D movie with a Muppet Dark ride. I LOVE DARK RIDES....there needs to be more of them! So the Muppet Ride was going to be a spin off of the GMR, huh? I heard there was also a proposed Muppet Dark ride for the American Waterfront section of Tokyo DisneySea, but the Japanese passed on it.

  2. P.S. Great idea for a ride! Especially if they did it as a take off of the Spiderman ride at Universal's IOA. That ride is definitely one of the best theme park rides I've ever been on.

  3. TokyoMagic!: I love dark rides, too. As I understand it, the Muppet Movie Ride would have featured movie spoofs featuring animatronic Muppets. Maybe they'll build it someday!

    Thanks for the compliment about my Spider-Ham idea!

    I agree--Spidey is the best thing at IOA!

  4. You just reminded me that I have a Muppet calendar from the late seventies....and it has the Muppets reenacting famous scenes from movies. I also have another one that shows Miss Piggy on the covers of various magazines. I need to dig those out!

  7. I need to be on the lookout for Spider-Ham comics--I feel like I missed out by never reading them!
