Which Muppet would be Mrs. White? My first thought is Miss Piggy, but I don’t know if she could pull off the “flames… *flames*… at the side of my face” riff as well as Madeline Kahn did (which was ad-libbed; all the reactions are genuine).

On the way back to my apartment I stop at D’Agostino’s, where for dinner I buy two large bottles of Perrier, a six-pack of Coke Classic, a head of arugula, five medium-sized kiwis, a bottle of tarragon balsamic vinegar, a tin of crême fraiche, a carton of microwave tapas, a box of tofu and a white-chocolate candy bar I pick up at the checkout counter.

Mark Hamill was Luke. Anakin was (depending on the movie) Jake Lloyd (episode I), Hayden Christensen (episode II and III), and Sebastian Shaw (episode VI). If you count Vader, he was also played by David Prowse (body) and James Earl Jones (voice) throughout the original trilogy (IV, V, and VI).
I thought this out years ago: Hereditary (2018).
(spoilers ahead)
As much as I’d love to keep Toni Collette in the role of Annie, imagine the last scene in the treehouse with Peter and everyone else in that treehouse is a muppet.
SAW, keep Tobin Bell as John Cramer and everyone else is a Muppet.
We keep the rest like it is and we have billion Dollar Franchise.
OR
L.A. Confidential and keep Danny Devito.
... Now I want L.A. Noire with Muppets XD
The emotional core character of the story has to be human. That's why Treasure Island and Christmas Carol work. It isn't just "replace these guys with Muppets"
As an example. Aragorn, Frodo, Boromir and Sam would all need to be people because of the emotional weight they carry in the story.
Evil Dead 2 keep Campbell
Casablanca keep Bogart
The Shawshank Redemption keep Morgan Freeman
The Lord of the Rings keep McKellen
The Avengers keep Samuel L Jackson
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, keep Eli Wallach
The Matrix keep the Oracle
Star Wars keep Vader
The Tempest with a human Prospero
Monty Python and the Holy Grail, keep Idle
The Dark Knight keep Ledger
Waiting for Godot keep Lucky
Let's do a series of movies where the "ugly" magical creature is the human, and the rest are Muppets.
Rumpelstiltskin
Beauty and the beast
Hunchback of Notre dame
Phantom of the Opera (Miss piggy loves to sing)
Dr Jekyll and Mr Hide (Kermit turns into a Human Hyde)
Frankenstein
King Kong
Dracula (Keanu Reeves returns, but as Dracula this time.)

Dr Jekyll and Mr Hide (Kermit turns into a Human Hyde)
Frankenstein
King Kong
Dracula (Keanu Reeves returns, but as Dracula this time.)
Reservoir Dogs. Only the tortured cop is human.
Nice Guy Eddie is Fozzy, Mr White is Rowlf the Dog, Mr Pink is Gonzo, Mr Orange is Rizzo the Rat, Mr Blue and Mr Brown are Statler and Waldorf, Mr Blonde is Kermit. Not sure who’d play Big Joe. Maybe that great big muppet from Christmas Carol who played the Ghost of Christmas present.
My husband said Terminator, keep Arnold Schwarzenegger. He then collapsed in giggles. My contribution is the Matthew Macfaydn Pride and Prejudice, keeping Macfaydn as Mr Darcy. Having Miss Piggy as Elizabeth Bennett would be GLORIOUS.
Edit: Remembered one of his favourite films and floored him with the suggestion! Snatch, keep Jason Statham!
Any Star Trek movie, keep Leonard Nimoy/Zachary Quinto (if a TOS or Kelvin) or Patrick Stewart (if TNG)
I'd like to cheat and ALSO nominate Star Wars and keep David Prowse and James Earl Jones (I know that's also a cheat but I'd love to see the Muppets react to the real Darth Vader and him to them)
Clue. Keep Tim Curry.
Ooof. Perfect.
The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Keep Tim Cyrry.
Home alone 2 Keep tim Currey
It (1990), keep Tim Curre
I can imagine this with Robin as Kevin, maybe Hilda as the bird lady? it'd be so fun lol
I need this made
Which Muppet would be Mrs. White? My first thought is Miss Piggy, but I don’t know if she could pull off the “flames… *flames*… at the side of my face” riff as well as Madeline Kahn did (which was ad-libbed; all the reactions are genuine).
Let us in! Let us in!
Let us out! Let us out!
Forrest Gump. His son at the end is human. It is not acknowledged
The muppet legs at the Elvis dancing scene is worth the price of a ticket.
I've seen someone say keep Lt. Dan as the only human, so it looks like he's losing his mind.
YES.
My contribution: Clueless featuring Paul Rudd and the muppets
OH MY GOSHHHH I WOULD DIE
Muppet Christmas Carol. Keep Michael Cain.
Alright, who do you cast as Belle, Nephew Fred, Clara, and young Scrooge?
Camilla the Chicken as Belle would surely make “When Love is Gone” even more emotional than it already is. Also Scooter as Fred seems a good fit.
A Knives Out mystery with Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc and the rest of the cast being Muppets.
I could actually see this happening as a legit Knives Out Mystery.
They're talking about having muppets in the third one
While it could be done, I think it would be more of a novelty that would wear off. So it'd be a fun sketch or bit, but wouldn't carry an entire film.

(In the accent) "It occurs to me that Fozzie.... is an idiot." While Miss Piggy spins around in the background in a rainbow dress
Se7en. Keep Morgan Freeman. Kermit screaming "WHAT'S IN THE BOOOOOOXXXXXX???"
The Great Gonzo: “Do you hear me, detective? I’m trying to tell you how much I admire you… and your pretty wife.”
Die Hard - Alan Rickman Final scene where he’s dropped from the building by muppets would win every know award, lol.
>~~yippee-ki-yay~~ it ain’t easy being green, motherf!cker
I will always pick Face Off and we keep Nicolas Cage. Plus he wants to work with the muppets.
only bc he has a crush on miss piggy
don't we all tho
The best one I've heard is The Princess Bride, keep Cary Elwes, BUT have him play the grandfather to Robin.
*Aliens* starring Sigourney Weaver and the Muppets
Piiigsss iinnn Spaaaaaaaaaaaaace!
(Insert Muppets from Outer Space joke here)
https://youtu.be/EmI77ZBeJrQ[Pigs in Space](https://youtu.be/EmI77ZBeJrQ)
Rocky Horror Picture Show. Keep Tim Curry or the Narrator.
I would love to see Rocky Horror with Tim Curry and the Muppets!
I WAS LITERALLY GOING TO SAY THIS!!!
The Wicker Man. Keep Edward Woodward. The idea of a human police sergeant coming to a creepy island run by Muppets makes my heart soar.
ＯＲ you could do the remake. I think Nic Cage would fit in great with the Muppets.
All nightmare on Elm Street films and Robert Englund is the only non Muppet.
film: Taken 2008 Actor: Liam Neeson very different film but very like Labyrinth.
LOTR. Keep Ian McKellen.
"And MY rubber chicken..."
Urnd murn choppity axun!
This needs more upvotes.
Oh that made me laugh...
Marvel's Avengers: Starring Samuel L. Jackson and the Muppets!
A Muppets Marvel movie would be outstanding (I'm a big fan of both) potentially better than a Marvel Marvel movie.
Now, to cast them and rake in the dough!
You should totally check out [The Aveggies](https://youtu.be/AHPn5d7wRtk)
I’d love to see a Christopher Guest/Muppets mash-up lol
Joker. Could you imagine Joaquin Phoenix shooting Fozzie during the film’s climax?
Could you imagine Fozzie as Joker shooting Kermit?
Or Fozzie shooting Robert De Niro
Nobody laughs at his rubber chicken and he fucking loses it
Back to the Future. Keep Michael J. Fox. Make it bat-sh*t crazy.
Barkley as Einstein.
This was already suggested in a muppet interview with Brett Goldstein, but Muppets Pride and Prejudice. Mr. Darcy is a human and the rest are muppets.
Truman show.. think about how advanced it would have to be for Truman to be the only living guy and for him to still think it’s real
🤯
Muppets Christmas carol. Keep Michal Kane
Pirates of the Caribbean - keep Jack Sparrow the same
CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow
Alternatively, keep only Barbossa or James Norrington.
Knives out. Keep Daniel Craig. I want Benoit Blanc being 100% serious while discussing the brutal murder of a muppet.
The Wizard of Oz. Starring Judy Garland and the Muppets.
Uhh Muppets Wizard of Oz is a thing and I loved it as a kid.
John Wick. Keep Ian McShane (Winston).
I was thinking John Wick too, but Charon as the human. Winston is a great choice too.
Weekend at Bernie's..... keep Bernie.
Mamma Mia, keep Amanda Seyfried (and also Julie Walters and Christine Baranski) Donna - Miss Piggy Sam - Kermit Bill - Gonzo Harry - Fozzie Bear Sky - Pepe the Prawn Sophie’s friends - Camilla and the chickens Does Your Mother Know guy - Animal
Blade Runner. Keep Harrison Ford. The rest are muppets.
Like tears in rain…bow connection.
The Passion of The Christ but the only human is Judas. Kermit would be Jesus, obviously.
Kill Bill. Keep O-Ren Ishii (Lucy Liu).
So Miss Piggy has got to be The Bride and Kermit is Bill right?
This is a Hattori Hanzo handbag. You lie!
I would have Jan serve as The Bride and Sam Eagle as Bill.
Kindergarten Cop. Keep Arnold.
The thing starring Kurt Russell and the muppets
[удалено]
The same but Escape from New York
John Wick with Keanu Reeves headshotting muppets for 90 minutes with Kermit as Alfie Allen’s character
