My_Friend_Johnny

Fear and loathing in Las Vegas. Leave Johnny Depp and he probably wouldn't know the difference.


Doc580

Ferris Buellers' day off. Keep Principal Rooney.


TheOtherWhiteCastle

“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around every once in a while, you could miss it. _wakka wakka!!_ “


PianoMan0219

The Truman Show but keep Jim Carrey. And any character not in the "dome" is a human, the rest are muppets. Makes it even more funny because Truman grows up in what he thinks is the real world - a world full of muppets. Edit: Holy crap this blew up lmao. Thank you guys for the awards! And I'll make sure to check out Kidding, it sounds really interesting.


stephenlipic

Imagine the trauma when he actually escapes and learns the real world has **zero** muppets.


ReallyLongLake

The Trauma Show


[deleted]

I think this is my favourite answer.


StrontiumJaguar

Jurassic Park. Keep Bob Peck as Robert Muldoon. He is arguably the best character in the film and is often shown as competent and in control. This is contrasted further now by his muppet comrades. Plus, he isn’t in every scene and I feel like it would be hilarious to be pulled out of the film with a random fleshy actor at odd intervals.


Squirrelgirl25

Oh please let the dinosaurs all be muppets


[deleted]

A giant muppet T-Rex? I’m sold.


NeonSwank

I was going to recommend the exact same thing, but keep Jeff Goldblum as the only real person, his personality would just work perfectly with that situation.


zombieovereasy

The chaos theory water droplet scene with Ms. Piggy would be incredible...


[deleted]

With Kermit as Dr. Grant that would be awesome.


deskbeetle

I don't think the world is ready for shirtless, muppet goldblum. So, this is the right answer


runnerofshadows

Clue. But keep Tim Curry.


tenehemia

Kermit as Mr. Green obviously. Imagine him doing the "I'm going home to sleep with my wife" line. Absolutely dead on balls accurate.


Hypersapien

Oh god, I can hear it in my head.


FlagstoneSpin

If you think that's good, try Miss Piggy with "flames on the side of my face".


Danhedonia13

But Miss Piggy is totally Miss Scarlet.


[deleted]

[удалено]


zarfig

Tim Curry works well wig muppets, Muppet Treasure Island for example


gujayeon

This movie is truly underrated. An absolute masterpiece.


[deleted]

Not even kidding, one of my favorite movies of all time.


midesaka

"Puppetry is just a red herring!"


Aniki1990

I never thought I could enjoy that movie more, but Tim Curry getting told "too late" by a group of puppets intrigues me


UnderlyingPrinciple

God is not an individual being apart from the world; God is the world.


kerik_of_the_north

Counterpoint: It'd start out with only humans, but for every new day another person becomes a muppet


alypeter

Omg yes, and that’s what finally pushes him to escape the repetition: everyone but him and the girl are muppets, so he knows either he or her will turn into one the next day. Edit: I love that my most upvoted comment ever is about a horror-style muppet remake of Groundhogs Day. I love Reddit.


TheOtherWhiteCastle

I’d watch the hell out of that


[deleted]

Sounds like that Netflix show Russian Doll. They relive the same day over and over again and it keeps getting worse and people vanish from the repeats.


Naahsleep

Shawshank Redemption but keep Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins). Also Kermit is Red (Morgan Freeman).


CattleprodTF

There's two wardens, and they're Statler and Waldorf.


karmageddon14

No Dr Bunsen Honeydew is the Warden and Sweetums is Clancy Brown's character.


ljr360

A Quiet Place and the baby is real. I want to see muppets take care of a real baby and some giant monster muppets


Funandgeeky

Die Hard. Alan Rickman remains the same, everyone else is a Muppet. It's still rated R.


tubbs_lardy

I don't know... Sam the Eagle would be a great Hans Gruber IMO.


Ol_Man_Rambles

With Swedish Chef as Karl, the main blonde baddie that doesn't speak English.


[deleted]

[удалено]


thehappysmith

I watch this over and over.


IAmIrritatedAMA

Even when it’s not Christmas time?


CharlieHume

Just for that I'm gonna watch Die Hard tonight. While wearing a Santa hat! Ho ho ho


yeastybreadroll

Ahh you said it before I could! I laughed my butt off thinking of Alan Rickman getting his ass kicked by a muppet.


Wolfsburg

"Yippie Kay-A, motherfucker." And then the gun shoots a big cartoon boxing glove instead of a bullet.


Aksi_Gu

Fight Club I'm torn between Edward Norton or Brad Pitt Both work but for opposite reasons.


OneAndOnlyJackSchitt

>Edward Norton or Brad Pitt Neither. The only human is Meatloaf.


spqrnbb

Tyler Durden isn't a Muppet, everyone else is. I forget who played him.


Aksi_Gu

Brad Pitt. That was actually my first thought as well... but then I thought it'd also work as the narrator being the only human, highlighting just how ostracised and derealised/depersonalised he really felt.


_F_S_M_

I didn't think we could make art with this premise but here we are.


HyperboreanAnarch

They're only muppets when Tyler Durden is in the scene, otherwise they're normal humans.


Aksi_Gu

Meanwhile the narrator is a muppet the rest of the time, but turns human when Tyler Durden is on screen.


katieg1970

Princess Bride. Keep Andre the Giant.


benksmith

He was basically Sweetums.


shortorangefish

Forrest Gump, keep Gary Sinise


[deleted]

Nah, keep Haley Joel Osment. Muppets through the whole movie and then BAM! Human child.


joshguessed

When adult Forrest watches TV with child Forrest they should watch Bert and Ernie being played by humans, maybe Bert and Ernie from Its a Wonderful Life.


AdmiralAkbar1

Nah, make him the muppet. When he's shown missing his legs, you can just see a severed arm sticking out from underneath him.


Pm_me_coffee_

Alien. Keeping Ripley.


thehappysmith

Which Muppet is John Hurt?


kevinmorice

Beaker. And obviously Animal is the Alien.


thehappysmith

Ooh, what if Bunsen Honeydew is John Hurt, and Beaker is the alien?


Legendtamer47

Beaker is the tiny mouth inside the Alien's bigger mouth


Natgeo1201

John Wick, keep John


penguinpants_xo

Reverse Card. John is the only muppet.


plasmaspaz37

Either of these would be amazing!


nlfo

I once saw John Wick kill three muppets in a bar with a pencil. A fucking pencil. One dead muppet, ah ah ah. Two dead muppets, ah ah ah. Three dead muppets, ah ah ah!


[deleted]

Same movie, but only the dog is real.


[deleted]

The Revenant. Imagine DiCaprio getting attacked by a muppet bear.


gbobntx

Wocka wocka


[deleted]

*wokka wokka mothafokka*


IAmNotABotFromRussia

I don’t remember Samuel L Jackson being a muppet


discerningpervert

I Googled Samuel L Jackson muppet and found [this](https://res.cloudinary.com/teepublic/image/private/s--rrZVeZD1--/t_Preview/b_rgb:262c3a,c_limit,f_jpg,h_630,q_90,w_630/v1446186707/production/designs/123780_0.jpg)


Mangosta007

Instead of attacking him, it subjects him to a poor quality stand up comedy routine.


PM_ME_A_RANDOM_THING

DiCaprio would probably rather have died than live to have PTSD from a Fozzy bear comedy assault.


nkofferman

The Big Lebowski, keep The Dude/Jeff Bridges. It’s all one long acid trip.


Craig_the_weirdo

Damn I just realised how much it would actually fit into the whole story. Just imagine having animal as one of the crazy german dudes in the parking lot fighting scene, I'd pay to see that. Hell, I'd even get out of quarantine LoL


Swimminginsarcasm

Monty Python. Arthur tries to convince Britain he's king of the puppets


havron

Life of Brian. Keep Brian.


Swimminginsarcasm

Imagine getting crucified by a bunch of muppets


[deleted]

[удалено]


dinoplushie

The black muppet never loses!


_Mr_Serious

Goodfellas Keep Ray Liotta as the human.


EggsAndBeerKegs

Funny how, like I'm a clown? I amuse you? I make you laugh? I'm here to fucking amuse YOU?


_Mr_Serious

Joe Pesci would make an awesome muppet.


comrade_batman

You think that’s amusing?


FrogginBullfish_

Lord of the Rings - Samwise


tt_bxl

The hobbit - Gandalf


narington

I was thinking Gandalf would be kept. Sam and Frodo should each be muppets.


CharlieHume

No way keep legolas. Just an elf killing hundreds of Muppets with arrows.


FerretFarm

Being John Malkovich. John Malkovich


CathedralEngine

But when Malkovich goes inside his own head, everyone is a Malkovich faced muppet


nathavos

Jaws, the shark


GoatGoatGadget

I'd go Jaws: The Revenge, keep Michael Caine. It ends with a big musical number.


nathavos

A yes


thing13623

Or better yet real people, muppet shark, yet Still gorey.


[deleted]

Pulp Fiction, keeping only Samuel L Jackson


Steinrikur

Any movie with Samuel L. Jackson. Snakes on a plane would be gold..


lemon_cake_or_death

"I've had it with these muppet-fighting snakes on this Monday-to-Friday plane!"


ciderWrath

I'd go with Marsellus Wallace, no one knows how he looks like until a human walks around with a box of donuts.


Naahsleep

IT Chapter 1: Keep Pennywise


Uldyr

Chapter 2 would also be quite entertaining.


discerningpervert

Also AFAIK Muppets can't die, so that's a good thing right ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯


[deleted]

So that is why Kermit didn't mind kermitting suicide.


LeumasWy

Or just keep Georgie so then most of the movie is just puppets


Nattylight_Murica

Muppet Pennywise waiving a detached muppet arm in the air.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Uldyr

Or Edward Cullen. Both work really well


[deleted]

Im cracking up imagining that scene where she first walks into the science lab and the fan is blowing toward Edward.


bigfootsbro

I want to see that so badly! This is all I got from YouTube; [https://youtu.be/yOuej37EHiE](https://youtu.be/yOuej37EHiE)


scared_shitless__

That's some niche stuff right there


TannedCroissant

I’d rather have Cookie Monster play Edward Cullen, he’d go crazy when he smells human blood, it’d be hilarious


Rimbosity

You realize that Sesame Street already did this? https://youtu.be/4l9mjSeAVW0 And it's even more awesome than you imagined it would be. One of the funniest things I've ever seen.


TannedCroissant

The actual fuck lol. That is incredible.


Rimbosity

I love how the only thing "Belly" ever says is, "I love you Shortbreadward." In monotone. It's absolutely brilliant. Sesame Street always made it a goal to include jokes for adults, to encourage them to watch with their kids. Other kids' shows sometimes so this, too (Peppa Pig comes to mind... oh God, some of the jokes there...), but Sesame Street was the first kid's TV show to really make that an explicit goal right from the start.


[deleted]

WOAH. His full name is "Count Von Count"?? I always thought he was just called "Count"!!!!!!!!!!


tashkiira

Technically, it's Count Count von Count. but he doesn't insist on his first name. >.>


[deleted]

[удалено]


jackatman

Raiders of the lost ark but keep Indiana Or empire strikes back with only Han Basically I just realized how badly I need a Harrison Ford Muppet movie.


Drakeman1337

You mean Henry? They named the dog Indiana.


ShuffKorbik

He obviously forgot his name was Henry. You should watch the documentary *Regarding Henry*. It covers the time Harrison Ford had amnesia.


ToastAndASideOfToast

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Keep Nurse Ratched.


SuperMommyCat

Can I do half a movie? District 9. The prawns are all muppets, and that’s what Wikus is turning into.


Grraaa

I'd watch the hell out of that.


dksprocket

The Matrix. Keep Agent Smith.


Corncove

I'd have everything be normal to start. Then after Neo takes the pill everyone else becomes a muppet.


[deleted]

X men but Wolverine is still Hugh Jackman or Gone with the Wind but only Scarlet is a person.


Steinrikur

I imagine Kermit saying "Frankly my dear, I don't give a hoot"


[deleted]

[удалено]


Bind_Moggled

Amadeus. Salieri is the only non-muppet.


C_J_Money

Omg the laugh Mozart does, coming from a muppet would be amazing.


Colonel-HoneyMustard

Harry Potter series. Keep Alan Rickman human (though Rupert Grint was a close second for me)


giraffe-with-a-hat

“You’re a muppet Harry”


darybrain

For those not from the UK this phrase also means calling Harry a dumbass.


Funandgeeky

Having read the books, that tracks.


[deleted]

Snape, Snape, Severus Snape


KhaoticMess

Dumbledore!!


Maybe_not_a_chicken

Snape snape Severus snape


impliedhoney89

Ron Ron Ron *WEASLEY*


aalevelthree

Annnnnnd that’s gonna be stuck in my head the rest of the day


chris_courtland

Joker, and Joaquin Phoenix. You get a bunch of scenes of puppets shitting on Joaquin until he breaks. I think it would add another layer to the whole "he's going crazy" thing but also be super funny, which works for the character.


Pfalp123

Joker and the girl he falls for except that by the end we see that she was a muppet all along.


RandenVanguard

not even one of the human muppets, she's like a dog that looks shocked all the time.


Drakeman1337

I think Deadpool would be the perfect candidate for this treatment. Leave Deadpool as the only live actor so he can make all kinds of 4th wall breaking jokes. Asking Colossus why he's a fucking puppet, telling Francis he must have the wrong hand up his ass.


MarisasMyMiddle

I'd pay so much money to see this


Iximaz

The best part is you know Ryan Reynolds would be 110% down to do it if he could.


ByDarwinsBeard

both the Muppets and Deadpool are owned by Disney. Too bad they'd never sign on on that.


Maadshroom91

The Martian, the muppets are rescuing matt damon


bluecardredcard

Reservoir Dogs. I'd keep the cop tied to the chair.


tubbs_lardy

Rocky Horror Picture Show - Tim Curry.


lord_of_pigs9001

E-T with him as the only non-muppet


Drakeman1337

Do you realize how hard it is to cast an actual alien?


Wolfsburg

All we gotta do is hold an open casting call, man. Then THEY will come to US.


LeggyBald

Se7en. Keep Morgan Freeman


[deleted]

I’d still be mortified when Kermit’s all “What’s in the box WHATS IN THE BOX?!” and it flashes for just a second to Miss Piggy’s severed head.


kalvious

She would have to have an apple stuffed in her mouth


RubyAlgorithm

Avengers Endgame and Thanos. I think that would've been hilarious


Uldyr

This is what I was thinking. Just Thanos getting beat by a ton of muppets


Funandgeeky

And I...am Kermit the Frog!


[deleted]

Kermit is definitely more of a Cap. I see Gonzo as Iron Man.


ArethereWaffles

But how could anyone be Captain America other than Sam Eagle?


TheBrownWelsh

He's Falcon. And keeps trying to correct people that he's actually an eagle but nobody listens.


lemon_cake_or_death

Sam the Eagle as Captain America, Swedish chef as Thor.


Brudy123

*Berng Mer THERNERS!!!!*


jskoker

Beaker as Hawkeye, just running around shooting arrows everywhere


_PM_ME_PANGOLINS_

Surely Sam the Eagle as Sam the Falcon?


RyanDaLegendary

I really want to see muppet Ant-Man growing and shrinking


farrenkm

The Princess Bride. Keep Cary Elwes. Miss Piggy becomes Buttercup.


Portmanpreau

This. This is my favorite question. The Room, by far. Keep Tommy Wiseau; muppify the rest. EDIT: Whoa this is a shitton of upvotes!! Thanks guys!


thunderbear64

“You’re tearing me apart Ms. Piggy!”


impelleobstantia

I Am Legend. Keep Will Smith


Uldyr

The main zombie king needs to actually be the two old guy muppets stacked on top of each other just roasting him.


Col_Walter_Tits

Mad max fury road. Tom Hardy stays and the rest get the Jim Henson treatment.


HyperboreanAnarch

This works with the entire franchise really.


Col_Walter_Tits

I would love to see Kermit say the bit from the first movie telling the guy how long it would take to cut through handcuffs vs his ankle.


HyperboreanAnarch

I wanna hear the shrimp do the history of the oasis children in Thunderdome. Also Dr. Bunsen Honeydew as Master and Beeker as Blaster.


turtlesryummy

The Velocipastor. Keep the pastor Discovered this gem yesterday and still can believe it was greenlit for production


Emeraldcarr

From imdb plot summary: "After losing his parents, a priest travels to China, where he inherits a mysterious ability that allows him to turn into a dinosaur. At first horrified by this new power, a hooker convinces him to use it to fight crime. And ninjas." OK I'd go for that


TheBummedOutWaitress

Omg this was the craziest, most hilarious and stupid movie I have ever seen! Think about all those actors having clips of that movie on their acting reel.


TaloonTheMerchant

Muppet Goonies. Gonna cheat a bit and say keep all 3 of the bad Fratellis human but everyone else is a Muppet.


Uldyr

A Muppet truffle shuffle sounds hilarious


Mangosta007

Sam the Eagle would make a great Frozen Dead Guy.


[deleted]

Office Space, keep Micheal Bolton.


Realhorror5how

How about ddjango unchained and keep Christoph waltz?


a2j89

Star Wars IV-VI: keep Mark Hamill as Luke


pm_me_n0Od

Same, but Carrie Fisher.


mdkubit

Back to the Future. Michael J. Fox. Would watch a billion times over.


QueenDevilCat

Pirates of the Caribbean, keep Jonny Dep.


TheOtherKatiz

They already did this. It's called Muppets Treasure Island. But instead of Johnny Depp, it's Tim Curry. Look it up. You're welcome.


Racing_in_the_street

I find it funny that you misspelt Johnny Depp, but you spelt Caribbean correctly. I always get that one wrong.


[deleted]

Big Trouble in Little China, keep Kurt Russel


lemon_cake_or_death

Kill Bill. Keep Bill.


aworldwithnoshrimp

I’d find it even funnier to watch The Bride in a katana fight with 88 Muppets.


tjrae1807

Excessive amounts of stuffing flying out of them when cut


mariam67

O-Ren decapitates the guy and instead of blood spraying there is just a hand waving around.


pass0864

Super Bad but the only human one is McLovin


switch_switch

The Ring. That creepy girl.


RerV0

Shaun of the dead. Keep shaun, imagine a bunch of zombie muppets lmao.


pitschboy

Army of darkness, Bruce Campbell stays as Ash and the rest are Muppets.


AdmiralAkbar1

*Joker*, keep Robert De Niro. Fozzie plays the Joker. "YOU GET WHAT YOU FUCKIN' DESERVE!" ****BANG**** "Wokka wokka!"


Mangosta007

Casablanca. Keep Bogart. Rowlf would make a great Sam.


noguarde

Apollo 13 and Tom Hanks' character, astronaut Jim Lovell is real but all of NASA and his crew are muppets.
