Die Another Day. Judy Dench.

John Wick - Keanu

I would pay money to see that in theaters

That is typically how theatres work
- Angryupvote
John Wick - Alfie Allen
Blue's Brothers - John Belushi
Rounders - John Malkovich
Swingers - Vince Vaughn
Pacific Rim - idris Elba
- Speaking of, Being John Malkovich - John Malkovich.
- John Wick - Lance Reddick (rip)
Basically those scenes in Gen V when Sam hallucinates puppets being torn apart.
- Omg - don't we like know they're not puppets at the time? Was that the show that had the shrinking and the blow and the sneezing and the exploding penis?

Die Hard - Alan Rickman

I like your idea
- Damn… now I wanna watch it too…
- you left rickman in which is only proper and correct
- I was picturing muppetifying the real actors until you shared this lol
https://youtu.be/Yz2dY1Tv7zw though everybody is a puppet.
i should have searched before i posted
You beat me to it!

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.

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.

Surely, you'd keep Brad Pitt as Tyler Durden, which would fit the theme.
Or Edward Norton as the narrator, which would support the theory that it's all a hallucination.
- You might like to watch Cool World
no. keep meatloaf.

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

lmao, now I have Fozzie saying "Hood day, sir!" in my head.

John wick, Keanu. I want to see him beating Muppets and Muppets flying around arms, legs flailing

Alfie Allen would be pretty interesting, Muppet goons getting slaughtered by Muppet John Wick.

Starship troopers - Michael Ironside

Edit: Kermit "C'mon you apes! You wanna live forever!? Ahhhhhhhhhh"

C'mon you apes...pigs, frogs, rats, chickens, and, eh, looks at gonzo whatever.
- Someday we’ll find it — the Klandathu Connection.
So Johnny is played by Kermit and Carmen is played by Miss Piggy, natch.
But who is Dizzy, and who is Carl?

Castaway — Wilson

Controversial and inventive take. I like it.
Who is now played by a completely silent Walton Goggins
- Perfection
Can inanimate objects be actor's 🤔
- If a script falls in a forest, and no actor is around to read it, does it still have meaning?

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

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!

Hear me out, The Avengers, but Agent Coulson is the human. Muppet Cap tossing the shield, just imagine. And Coulson's actor I think would be very much like Michael Caine in Muppet Christmas Carol, interacting very sincerely with the Muppets as fellow actors.
I would also accept "Hulk is the human, but only when he's hulked out" just for the sheer surprise of it
- A muppet turning into a human by Hulking out would either be terrifying or amazing, there's no middle ground possible

The Matrix, Hugo Weaving

"~~Humans~~ Muppets are a disease."
Perfect choice, this would be so funny.
I was going for Matrix - Laurence Fishburne

Requiem for a Dream - Ellen Burstyn.

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

Somehow you've made that dildo scene way more disturbing.

Hateful 8.

Samuel L Jackson.

"You goddam sock puppet shot my balls off!!"

I would pay to see that.

Seven - Morgan Freeman.

Gwyneth Paltrow.
- Makes sense. Otherwise the ending would be far less tragic.

Dogma, keep Alan Rickman

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

Reverse this one and make that weird CGI baby the only muppet. That will make it less weird when she falls in love with an adult man, and he falls in love with her, a months-old baby.
Sweetums, covered in glitter.
Honestly the real movie was so bad in that part that I kind of can imagine this with little trouble.

Every Marvel movie, Stan Lee

Predator, the predator

Taken - Liam Neeson

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

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.

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!"

maybe Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator)
Ah, see, that's the tempting choice. But you're overlooking the comic value of either Linda Hamilton as Sarah Connor or Robert Patrick as the T-1000. The entire Pescadero Hospital chase scene... pure gold.
Also, how can you say no to Muppet Arnold Schwarzenegger? Coming around the corner with a little fuzzy shotgun. Adorable.
I was thinking Sigourney Weaver in Alien is the only human and then the alien ends up being a Muppet lol
Specifically for that iconic scene where she's trying not to cry as the Alien comes into frame right next to her and does the mouth thing, but it's just a harmless muppet
- Sigourney Weaver in Aliens as well. "Game over man, game over!" Muppet Hudson flails wildly

John wick. Only the dog is human

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

Grease

Keep John Travolta

Miss Piggy would have to play Sandy

“I’ve got chills…”

Star Trek Into Darkness - keep Benedict Cumberbatch.

Add: Stargate - keep James Spader.

(Both movies are narrated by Gonzo the Great.)

Star Trek Into Darkness - keep Benedict Cumberbatch.
But every single muppet in the cast is a Beaker.
You could pick any character to be the human in Stargate and they'd all be dramatically different movies. Ra is human? O'Neill is human? Scara is human? All wild stories.
Stargate, the series - keep Michael Shanks.
- And a special exemption for an all-human cast in Wormhole X-Treme.
I really wanna watch The Blacklist now with only Spader in it surrounded by Muppets...
Just this the whole time

Indiana Jones. Harrison Ford

I don’t know who I’d keep, but Fozzy Bear as Indiana would be amazing!

John Wick, Keanu stays.

Every Mel Brooks movie. Mel Brooks

Rain man. Dustin Hoffman.

Bonus: every Tarrantino movie, Tarrantino.

Tarantino IS a muppet.
- A very creepy muppet.

The passion of Christ. It’s just a bunch of muppets killing Jesus

Evil Dead - Bruce Campbell

But a little Muppet Bruce grows out it his shoulder!

Pulp Fiction. Bruce Willis.

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

Broke Back Mountain - Jake Gyllenhaal

Saving Private Ryan - Matt Damon

Terminator - Arnold Schwarzenegger

Eyes Wide Shut - Tom Cruise

Forest Gump - whoever played “Jenny”

Uh, that was Robin Wright you philistine!
- Buttercup???
  Ok, let’s add to the list:
  The Princess Bride - Andre the Giant
Second Eyes Wide Shut because Tom Cruise would never not take a role 100% seriously even as muppet chaos unfolds.
Saving Private Ryan is funnier if it's Nathan Fillion.
Terminator - Arnold Schwarzenegger
Alternatively, Linda Hamilton (Sarah Connor).

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.

Rocky Horror. Susan Sarandon.

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

Fight Club, obviously Tyler Durden as the only non real character stays human

300 - the actor who is kicked into the pit

Star Trek Wrath of Kahn, Ricardo Montlaban.

Wicker Man - Nick Cage

Actually, almost any movie where we keep Nick Cage. Kickass, Gone in 60 Seconds, Lord of War.

Raising Arizona?
Alternatively, which muppet would make the best Nic Cage?
- Gonzo, obviously
- Doctor Teeth.
Mandy, or Color Out of Space

Lord of the Rings, Gandalf stays

the worse answer is any porn movie

Deep Throat, keep Linda Lovelace obvs

Mad Max furry road, max

Edit: that typo is staying right where it's at

Oh! Miss Piggy as Furiosa (or Imortan Joe) - she has such range!
- Dual casting ftw!

My first thought: John Wick movies and keeping Keanu

Silence of the Lambs, Anthony Hopkins.

Nah, Jodie Foster.
I'm imagining him eating fluffy cotton stuffing in the most intimidating manner possible.
Floyd Pepper as Buffalo Bill, Janice stuck in the hole.

Crocodile Dundee but only the knife is real

"Civil War" from 2024, but only Jesse Plemons is human.

"What kind of muppet are you?"

Super Hornio Bros, Ron Jeremy

OG Star Wars - chewbacca, but instead of a guy in a costume just a really hairy dude

Jackass: The Movie.

Wee Man.

The Rocketeer (1991).

Timothy Dalton.

In the original comics, the Rocketeer was a huge asshole and the Jennifer Connelly character was a stripper/nudie model. I am still waiting for an apology and / or a remake.
- "We named the dog Indiana!"
  "He was really good on piano."

A live-action Lorax. Danny DeVito is the only human, and he's wearing a Lorax costume.

Big Lebowski. Jeff Bridges.

Weekend at Bernie's. Bernie.

Inglorious Bastards, we keep Christoph Waltz

Interstellar - Anne Hathaway

Buried with Ryan Reynolds. Just Kermit on the phone.

Bonus points if the actor is not the protagonist

Gotta go with Devil's Advocate and Charlize Theron
Lord of the rings trilogy and obviously I pick Gimili.
Dramatic entrance halfway through the first movie.
"You'll have to toss me!"
- Gonzo, playing Aragorn, looks at the dwarf who is twice his size, “you gotta be kidding me…”

Clue, Tim Curry

My wife said: Legally blond, keep Witherspoon

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

The Prestige. Christian Bale.

But he only plays "half" of Borden.

Cast Away. Tom Hanks.

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

All of Star Wars - JarJar's actor

National treasure, Nick Cage.

Rocky, the lady who played Adrian.

Jurrasic park, the guy that played Neuman on Seinfeld.

Shawshank redemption, Morgan Freeman.

Jaws - Jaws

But Cookie would be so good in the role!
Leave in Robert Shaw instead and I'm sold.
- YES, that's perfect

Being John Malkovich,

Keep anyone other than John Malkovich, in fact John Malkovich is the only puppet.

The Muppet Christmas Carol

Michael Caine

Am I doing this right?

Blade 3. Ryan Reynolds.

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

Home Alone - keep Kevin

die hard

alan rickman

Being John Malkovich - John Malkovich
~~also Airplane! - John Malkovich~~

the man was made to pitch a fit in front of a bunch of muppets

edit: i looked it up and apparently he wasn't in Airplane! ...? am i going crazy?

edit 2: I was confusing Stephen Stucker playing the crazy guy Johnny with John Malkovich

Airplane - Stephen Stucker

I am Legend - the dog

Memento, with any of Guy Pearce, Joe Pantoliano or Carrie-Anne Moss. All would be good

The Matrix, with either Lawrence Fishburn or Joe Pantoliano (again lol)

Screw it, every movie with the pants is just him surrounded by muppets.
And shows. The Last of Us is all muppets until his cameo in season 2.
- Oh man, that Sense8 reboot is gonna be weird…
- Gonzo Soprano: "I knew it was a rug."

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

The Secretary - Maggie Gyllenhaal

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - RDJ (I think this one would be fun the muppets could pull this off well)

Saving Private Ryan - Tom Hanks

Precious - Gabourey Sidibe

Sonic the Hedgehog, Jim Carrey

Remake Team America with real Matt Damon.

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

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Keep Ricardo Montalban.

Edit: Alien. Keep Sigourney Weaver.

Muppet xenomorph would sell merch so fast.
- Well, I for one would have to have one!

The Princess Bride. Keep Fred Savage, but as an adult.

Tim Curry

Legend

Tropic Thunder - Tom Cruise

Pirates of the Caribbean, keep Johhny Depp.

Fifth Element - Bruce Willis

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

Resevoir Dogs

Kirk Baltz.

Almost, but all the cops were human instead.
- Well if this isn't just exactly what I imagined, I don't know what else it could be.

Eraserhead. Keep the baby.

The Holy Mountain

Keep Jodorowsky.

Any of his stuff really

Blue Velvet. Keep Isabella Rossellini. Maybe that’s too dark.

A Few Good Men - Tom Cruise

No it'd have to be Jack Nicholson.

Star Wars: A New Hope and obi-wan

explains why he just gives up and fades away.
"fuck all this shit, these puppet fuckers can deal with my ghost."

Shaun of the Dead - Bill Nighy

Midsommar. Florence Pugh.

12 Monkeys - Jeffrey Goins

The Big Lebowski - The Dude

Deadpool vs Wolverine - Wolverine

The Goonies - Chunk

Pirates of the Caribbean - Jackie Sparrow (by Amber Heard)

The Shawshank Redemption. Morgan Freeman

Star Trek VII, Marina Sirtis.

The Departed, Leonardo DiCaprio

Jurassic Park, the velociraptor

Iron man, the only human is happy the driver.
All adam sandler movies and adam sandler is the only human (I believe it would just amplify his movies)

Big Lebowski, Jeff Bridges obviously.

Toy Story

Andy

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

The Exorcist

Linda Blair

The matrix, neo is the non muppet.

Alternatively, everyone is a human except for neo who is miss piggy

Oh no no everyone is human UNTIL he takes the pill, and realizes they're all Muppets
- "Were you listening to me, Neo? Or were you looking at the chicken in the red dress?"
"Could you please remove any metallic items you may be carrying, keys, loose change... holy shit!"
"Hiii-YA!"
Trade out Miss Piggy for Animal

Home alone, Kevin

From Dusk Till Dawn - Salma Hayek

Star wars and Yoda

Doom, Dwayne Johnson

Donnie Darko. Donnie Darko.

Terminator. Arnold.

Hellboy - Ron Perlman

Total Recall - Arnold Schwarzenegger

Titanic.

Kate Winslet stays human.

The Muppets - Steve Whitmire (Kermit's puppeteer)

The Dark Knight, but keep Bale as Batman.

Braveheart

longshanks

there will be blood, keep only paul dano. i love daniel day lewis but i just want to see eli be hounded by a screaming fozzie bear.

The original Japanese version of The Ring. Keep the Ring spirit, whoever played Sadako.

The American version is funnier because you get these dramatic reveals of Muppets with their eyes and noses sewed in the wrong place.
And Muppet Brian Cox in a bathtub, flashing as a black outline with a visible skeleton.
And a bunch of shredded felt behind a boat.

Star Wars, keep David Prowse (Darth Vader, the actual guy in the suit).

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

Top Gun. Keep Anthony Edwards.

The Dark Knight: Gary Oldman.

The Thing: Kurt Russell

{My girl says} John Wick: Keanu kills Muppets

12 Angry Men.

Henry Fonda was a funny guy, and I think he'd have had a ball playing it straight.

John wick. Having Reeves be the only person would be hilarious, though the opposite would be true to. Have Reeves as a puppet and everybody else getting their ass kicked.

Deep Throat, Linda Lovelace

It's Predator obviously, and keep the Predator...!

Psycho. Mother.

I am Legend.

Not Will Smith.

X files, the tv show. Keep mulder

Conclave, carlos diehz

Se7en, kevin spacey

Stargate, jaye davison

Star Trek beyond, Chris pine

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.

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

From Dusk Til Dawn, Salma Hayek.

Just imagining the perverted little Tarantino and Cheech puppets is giving me titters.

"We got velvet pussy, cloth pussy, fuzzy pussy, felt pussy..."

LotR - Sauron (or Legolas)

127 hours, but I pick both the girls.

Edit:

Or Lord of the rings... Obviously I choose Gimili.

The Muppet Movie.

Kermit the Frog.

The Pianist. Wladyslaw Szpilman (Adrien Brody) is still himself, everyone else are muppets.

Schindler's List - Schindler

Dredd - Dredd

Master and Commander - take your pick

The Wolf of Wall Street - Jonah Hill

Star Wars: A New Hope. C-3PO.

Salò. The sex worker who tells the stories.

So much brown cotton batting...

Debbie Does Dallas, keep Debbie

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

Dark Knight Rises

Tom Hardy

Django unchained, Django.

It's not because muppet violence is especially hilarious... I'm lying. Exploding racists into felt organs 100% seems uniquely amusing.

Martyrs, but only if everyone but Mademoiselle's Society members are real

ohh The Fall (german hitler one) keeping Juliane Köhler, and making everyone else muppets would be a statement on its own

Repo: The Generic Opera; Nathan

Wayne's world. Garth

Fear and Loathing..keeping Depp/Thompson

The sixth sense, haley joel osment

Dark City, Kiefer Sutherland

Castaway. Tom Hanks.

Yeah, I was thinking either keep Jaws or the Mayor

Willard, crispin glover. Replace all the rats with rizzo

In the Mouth of Madness, keep Jurgen Prochnow.

Repo Man, Tracey Walter.

Buckaroo Banzai, John Lithgow

Liquid Sky, Otto von Wernherr

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

Inglorious bastards and the bear jew.

Deep throat - Linda Lovelace

Not a movie, but the first episode of Black Mirror and I'll keep the pig.

Or any of Nick Cage's movies and keep Nick Cage.

'Come and see' but i cant decide who the non-muppet should be.

District 9. Leave Wikus in.

John Wick. Keep Keanu. Everyone else are muppets.

Apocalypse Now. Keep Sheen human and everyone else become Muppets.

I need to see the napalm/surfing scene with Muppets.

The Thing. Keep Kurt Russell.

Army of Darkness (keep Bruce of course)

Inception, keep DiCaprio

The Houston 620

The Shining

Shelley Duvall

Muppet Christmas Carol.

Michael Cane.

Starship Troopers, Sergeant Zim

First Blood. Sylvester Stallone.

The raid, pointy beard antagonist guy

Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves

Keep Alan Rickman

I Saw The Devil - Choi Min-sik

Mad Max 2. The dog.

The Sound of Music. Baron Von Trapp is the non muppet.

Eddy the Eagle. Keep Hugh Jackman grumpy coach. In his flashbacks, he should be played by a muppet.

Requiem For A Dream.

Marlon Waynes.

21 Grams. Benicio Del Toro.

The Death of Stalin where Stalin is the only human.

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.

The new Snow White. Keep the maidman.

Frankenstein. Robert de Niro.

All quiet on the western front.

Requiem for a dream.

Caligula

Felon

Deliverance

Schindlers List

Pick an actor, it doesnt matter. The result is fucked up.

Daniel Day Lewis in There Will Be Blood. Obviously Kermit as Eli.

die hard (bruce willis)

One man one jar

The actor is the jar

Pulp Fiction: Stephen Hibbert

The Big Lebowski: Sam Elliott

Harry Potter - Lord Voldemort

Beverly Hills Cop, Bronson Pinchot

Willie's Wonderland 2 - just a shot for shot remake of John Wick but muppets. Keep Keanu or swap for Cage, your call.

The hurt locker.

But only the guy who gets blown up at the start is a human.

Fight Club but Meatloaf is the only human

what about movies with one single actor?

Lucky Number Slevin.

Slevin

What's Eating Gilbert Grape, the mom is the only human.

The Chronicles of Riddick / Dame Judy Dench.

Die Hard with a Vengeance. I'm leaning towards Samuel L Jackson but Bruce Willis would be a close second.

Requiem for a Dream - But both Jennifer Connelly and Jared Leto

Schindler's List. Liam Neeson.

Breaking 2: electric boogaloo and the only actor we keep is one that can't dance, so.... Ice T
