Keep the Fraggle movie out of the human world, or don't make it at all

I would like to make the case against a Fraggle movie that takes place in the human world. I have two main contingencies in my case:
1. The proposed storyline is unnecessary;
2. There are more original and more interesting stories to be told within the Fraggle world.

I explain this in further detail in episode 62 of my podcast, Eleven Point Collar, at MuppetHub.com, but here I'll sum up some key points.

It would be redundant, or perhaps even cliché, for the Fraggles to make a movie based on the same premise as their fellow Henson creations’ films. This is also a plot that tends to bring about very weak movies. The characters that we've only seen in a fantasy-ish world coming into our world and trying to make sense of it is essentially the plot of the Smurfs movie, Looney Tunes Back in Action, the Rocky and Bullwinkle movie, and Hop, and it even bears close resemblance the Alvin and the Chipmunks movies, the recent Scooby Doo movies, the Three Stooges movie, the new Spongebob movie. Yes, there have been other times when this kind of movie has worked well, such as in Star Trek IV or Disney’s Enchanted, but there’s no reason to redo what has already been done.

If what we want is an original and exciting story, the world of Fraggle Rock offers several delightful opportunities. Fraggle Rock was such an imaginative show that in every episode it gestured towards possible stories to be told, offering them to the fans for the past few decades. The fans are still wondering about what could have happened to the Fraggles both before and after the events we see in the series.
