Instead of making live action remakes of animated movies, we should make more Muppets remakes of live action movies.

Muppet John Wick

Muppet Gattaca

Muppet Mean Girls

Kermit as DPR

Gonzo as Inigo

The one human cast member as the six-fingered man

This thing writes itself!

Edit: Bunson Honeydew as Miracle Max!

I think Gonzo should be Vizzini.

Scooter should be Inigo. He has total commitment to the matter at hand no matter how difficult.

Fozzie is, of course, Fezzik.

The Albino is played by the Swedish Chef.

Prince Humperdink is played by Rizzo the Rat.

[–] Glytch 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Scooter doesn't have enough presence for Inigo, but he might make a good Vizzini

Fozzie's the priest at the wedding

Makes the most sense to me. Je's got the build for it and Fozzie does not.

Beaker as the ~~witch~~ wife

I will watch every muppet retelling I can get my eyes on

[–] aeronmelon 6 points 6 months ago

That's why Muppet Treasure Island and A Muppet Christmas Carol are among my favorite movies.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

That would be nice indeed

[–] pdxfed 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I mean that's kind of the Lego movies direction/fad right?

Saved me making the same comment!

Best we can do is a 20 year old theatre attraction in our park that we may or may not be tearing down at some point.
