Dune. Keep either Patrick Stewart, or Sting. Not sure which would be funnier.

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.

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.

This was done with a Muppet Christmas Carol and Michael Caine to excellent results. Really a top notch interpretation and acting. Highly recommend

Every Marvel movie, Stan Lee

Predator, the predator

Pulp Fiction. Bruce Willis.

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

Rocky Horror. Susan Sarandon.

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

Dammit Janet!

Statler and Waldorf play Riff-Raff and Magenta, Kermit plays Brad, Miss Piggy is Frank.

I had a whole muppet fancast for this at one point, but it's been at least a decade since then and I can't remember any more of them.

Edit: adding as it comes back to me, we had Fozzie as Eddie and Gonzo as Columbia.

Dr. Bunsen Honeydew should be Frankenfurter, Beaker should be Rocky

Hereditary and keeping the guy playing the dad in the family.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The Hunger Games, keep Snow. The Exorcist, keep the priest.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The possessed girl being the only non-muppet in The Exorcist has a lot more comedy potential imo. The priest really should be Kermit.

I thought about that, but I feel like she's too scary? Like, i would be worried for the Muppets. And I like the idea of this one guy playing it completely straight, terrified of this demon and it's, like, gonzo or something.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Gonzo being Gonzo, or Gonzo acting possessed?

My first thought: John Wick movies and keeping Keanu

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago

John wick but the dog is now played by a human and the rest are muppets

Have you seen Gen V, the The Boys spin off? They had a character that was kinda this
