Re: The Noodle Compound
Just noodleing around here
This isn't what I'd call a "serious" theory, but it's an idea that's amused me since I first heard it
The first four points were the basis of the original theory, and the others have cropped up and seem to encourage it.
The theory is that Yoda is the offspring of Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy.
There several things that point to this:
- 1) Yoda is (or originally was) a Muppet, as are Kermit and Piggy.
- 2) Yoda and Miss Piggy are both voiced by Frank Oz.
- 3) Yoda is green like Kermit, short like Piggy and has pointed, pig-like ears, though they don't droop like Piggy's ears do.
- 4) Yoda lived in a swamp, just like Kermit did originally in the opening of The Muppet Movie.
- 5) We know that space travel is possible in the Muppet universe from the Muppets in Space movie, where it is revealed that Gonzo is an alien. This could explain the "far far away" part of when Star Wars takes place.
- 6) Time travel is available in the Muppets universe based on numerous references: http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Time_travel. This covers the "a long time ago" setting of Star Wars.
- 7) Kermit and Piggy got married at the end of The Muppets Take Manhattan, though it was a rocky marriage as seen in 2011's The Muppets. While not stated, perhaps part of their marital problems were caused by their son, Yoda, being flung through space and time to an unknown destination?
- 8) Miss Piggy's Karate skills are well known
