In fact, The Hobbit (1977) pretty much set the tone for the late 70's/early 80's in general with the murky color palettes, dark fairy tale atmosphere, and Arthur Rackham influence echoing in the work of Don Bluth, Ralph Bakshi, Jim Henson, and even Disney itself (by the mid 80's)

I will never forgive society for letting MirrorMask (2005 film) bomb in the box office. We got a goth clown adventure movie, in a surrealist environment, with some of the coolest character and prop designs, done by the Jim Henson company, written by Neil Gaiman, and it flopped.

Apparently this muppet is called Sam. I made this drawing with the idea of him and Ty Burrell fighting over their badge in the Muppets Most Wanted movie.

There are people in the cosmos that say Michaela Stephenson craves violence. That she enjoys pounding faces into paste almost as much as she enjoys whiskey or carnal pleasure. They would be wrong. She enjoys the fight considerably more.

Y'know, Jim Henson (happy birthday!) decided at some point that he would be a frog puppet guy as his contribution to the world and he made zillions of people happy. Not by curing a disease or building a rocket or writing the Greatest Book. Frog puppet. This is inspiring to me.
