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!

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.

Schindler's List - Schindler

Dredd - Dredd

Master and Commander - take your pick

The Wolf of Wall Street - Jonah Hill

The Matrix Reloaded. But only one Agent Smith is Hugo Weaving. The rest are puppets

Cast Away. Tom Hanks.

It's a movie that starts really goofy, gets serious for a long time, and is then oddly goofy again.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

Irrelevant, but one thing I wish Castaway had done would have been to have him open that package he was carrying around at the end and find a satellite phone.

The Sunset Limited. Samuel L. Jackson will remain, Tommy Lee Jones is replaced by a muppet. The movie is a joke room drama where Jackson's character has stopped Jones's from commiting suicide and trying to talk him out of not doing it again.

Major spoilerIn the end he is unsuccessful. Seeing a muppet definitively leave to commit suicide would be funny. You know, in a dark comedy way.

Pulp Fiction. Bruce Willis.

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

Requiem for a Dream - Ellen Burstyn.

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

Any of the Die Hard franchise, really. It makes McClane seem like a complete fucking schizo to the point you wonder if this is all happening in his head a la Sucker Punch.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

While that's fun. I prefer Hans as the only human.

Alan Rickman giving an identical performance with Muppets sounds like a perfect 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

Rocky Horror. Susan Sarandon.

This is hands down the funniest option for this film, I have thought about this before.

Star Trek beyond, Chris pine

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

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!"

Transformers. Keep only John Turturro. The rest, even the Transformers, are played by normal sized muppets.

Bumblebee is played by Beaker, obviously. And seeing Megan Fox replaced by Miss Piggy sounds like a fever dream

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago (2 children)

X files, the tv show. Keep mulder

The Prestige. Christian Bale.

But he only plays "half" of Borden.

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

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 days ago

Taken - Liam Neeson

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

The Matrix. Hugo Weaving (Agent Smith) as the only non-muppet.
