Okay but now I'm imagining The Matrix, where everyone still in the Matrix are human, and everybody who escaped are Muppets. When Neo escapes, he is still human.

[–] hydrospanner@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

I love this!

I also thought Matrix, but Neo would be Gonzo and Morpheus would be still played by Laurence Fishburne.

John Wick - Keanu

I would pay money to see that in theaters

[–] Muscle_Meteor@discuss.tchncs.de 116 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That is typically how theatres work

Fight club - Marla Singer Bonus if Kermit plays both Tyler Durden and Narrator. Also any scene Durden has his shirt off Kermit has to have painted on abs.

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and the actor who stays is just a random one of the Oompa Loompas.

Truman Show. Carey is the non Muppet. Or maybe his "best friend" that might be funnier.

[–] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 18 points 5 days ago

no, he is the only non puppet. but because he grew up like that, he doesn't realize he's the only non puppet. from his point is view, everyone else is normal

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, obviously Johnny Depp as the only human. Basically no difference.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 10 points 5 days ago

Inglorious Bastards, we keep Christoph Waltz

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Fight Club. Edward Norton. Tyler is Kermit and the end is "Jack" realizing Tyler is just a hand puppet that he controls.

Clue. Tim Curry.

Fight Club. Brad Pitt. Or maybe Norton because it would be hilarious for the human to be the one to destroy an Angel Face muppet.

TaAvengers - Chris Evans

Honestly just any of the earlier Avengers movies. I want to see Cap being continualy exasperated by his team ashe usually is, but also because he has to get things up high for him. The super soldier serum turned him from muppet to human. Running past muppet Sam saying "on your left".

Also muppet Fury being surly and intimidating. Muppet hawkeye with a little bow on top of the fridge like a cat. Tony as a muppet with his billionaire playboy philanthropist line. Wanda being a creep with glowy muppet hands. Thor with a normal sized Mjölnir so its actually crazy he can lift it. Natasha flipping around with all the grace of a muppet. Black panther is just a black cat muppet.

MUPPET HULK!

Requiem for a Dream - Ellen Burstyn.

The entire movie would seem like her descent into amphetamine fueled madness.

Fifth Element - Bruce Willis

The attempted mugging would be hilarious. The cookie monster screaming "gimme da cookies!" Miss Piggy as the supreme being.

Twilight, bella is of course the human. Imagine her riding a muppet vampire's shoulders as he runs through the forest, that would be a fun movie to film

This is going to get me put on a watchlist...

  • Six String Samurai: The boy
  • A Boy and His Dog: The boy
  • Time Bandits: The boy
  • Brazil: Robert De Niro
  • The World of Kanako: This would be an unhinged fever dream no matter who is picked. I'd like to propose Ogata for shock value in a particular scene, but I think either Kanako or the main character detective overall work better
  • The entire Saw franchise: Jigsaw
  • SLC Punk: Heroin Bob
  • Tokyo Gore Police: Key Man
  • Hook: Everyone in the real world is human, everyone but hook in Neverland is a muppet, and Robin Williams starts human but by the end is a muppet
  • Les Mis: Javert
  • X: The old woman
  • Swiss Army Man: Daniel Radcliffe or Paul Dani could work here but I prefer the dead body
  • Any zombie movie but people start human and turn to muppets when bit. I nominate - - - Train to Busan
  • Audition (1999): The main character

Harry Potter. Keep Alan Rickman obviously.

I would watch the shit out of this. Maybe before I die AI will get good enough to make this a reality for me.

Either Alien (Ian Holm as Ash), Aliens (Lance Henriksen as Bishop) or maybe Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator). Just for the big reveal of "he's a machine", with all the muppets being like "oh woooow, that's insane, we literally couldn't tell him apart from us!"

Pulp Fiction. Bruce Willis.

This is cheating a little bit because Bruce Willis is already a muppet.

The Shawshank Redemption - Clancy Brown

When my wife saw that movie for the first time and hollered out, "That's Clancy Brown!!" I then knew why his voice was so familiar to me.

So now I'm imagining Mr. Krabs absolutely fed up with and not taking shit from any of these Muppets.

So either that or Airplane! and keep Leslie Nielsen

[–] WoolyNelson@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago

Taken - Liam Neeson
