I'd actually go to the movies for this. I never go to the movies.
The best adult film (clip; I’m not a millionaire) that I’ve seen in a while featured a muppet. I wouldn’t cry over a remake.

Heck I just hope they do restart the Muppet Show. The soft pilot was pretty good, actually got me to watch a Sabrina Carpenter performance, and Seth Rogen's punchability is at an all-time low. Come on Disney. (I hate saying those words)
Are Muppets good or is this more of a nostalgia thing for people?
I've never seen Muppets. I don't remember it airing on our national TV when I was a child. It's not much of a thing in my social circles either.
I like the chaotic energy they bring on screen.
Also not officially Muppets shows, but look at Farscape and Labyrinth. Chef d'oeuvre!
The Muppets are good. Very entertaining for all ages. But these remakes are nothing but a money grab. No new story line, a few rewrites, toss in a few jokes, get nostalgic movie goers to buy tickets and make a bunch of money.
The Muppets are more than good enough to deserve their own new stories and not just rehashed garbage.
Personally, I think they're good. Obviously it's subjective, but I think there's a good reason that they've withstood the test of time.
The brand of humor is timeless. The absurdity of a world where a pig and a frog can take on human roles without comment is just as funny now as it was 40 years ago. The overall style of humor is somewhat dry but still accessible.
It's not for everyone, but it's for a lot of people.

Got my vote.
Why is there a second "No" after the first "Yes?"
Yes on the first question and No on the second question both lead to the end node Don't bother
I posit we could remake some (not all) of the Muppet movies and still get good movies. Not the one with Tim Curry, that one had Tim Curry in it. Can't be improved upon.
Muppet Treasure Island has been in my top five movies of all time for as long as I can remember. In addition to Tim Curry, it has one of my favorite exchanges in all of cinematic history:
"It just feels weird."
"What? That Captain Smollet is dead?"
"Yeah, that... and my pants are filled with starfish."
"...you and your hobbies!"
I knew they couldn't have thought of this in they own
Putting things in pants that aren't ordinarily in pants, especially while wearing said pants, it a time-honored trope.

Well they keep making Godzilla movies. I think I could watch a Muppet Godzilla movie.
But what about all the gender or race swap possibilities?

I liked the remake of midway but much else. If it’s not featuring muppets and newer then 50 years old, probably doesn’t need a remake
