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.
- You beat me to it!
- i should have searched before i posted

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.

Hateful 8.
Samuel L Jackson.
"You goddam sock puppet shot my balls off!!"
I would pay to see that.

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

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

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.

Every Marvel movie, Stan Lee
Predator, the predator

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.
- Honestly the real movie was so bad in that part that I kind of can imagine this with little trouble.

Dogma, keep Alan Rickman
- BEHOLD THE METATRON

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

Taken - Liam Neeson

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.
- Stargate, the series - keep Michael Shanks.
  
  And a special exemption for an all-human cast in Wormhole X-Treme.
- 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.
- I really wanna watch The Blacklist now with only Spader in it surrounded by Muppets...
  Just this the whole time

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

Grease
Keep John Travolta
Miss Piggy would have to play Sandy
- “I’ve got chills…”

Every Mel Brooks movie. Mel Brooks

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

Indiana Jones. Harrison Ford
- I don’t know who I’d keep, but Fozzy Bear as Indiana would be amazing!

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

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).

Rain man. Dustin Hoffman.
Bonus: every Tarrantino movie, Tarrantino.
- Tarantino IS a muppet.
  
  A very creepy muppet.

Evil Dead - Bruce Campbell
- But a little Muppet Bruce grows out it his shoulder!

Star Trek Wrath of Kahn, Ricardo Montlaban.

Clue.
Tim Curry.

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.

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

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!

the worse answer is any porn movie

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."

Wicker Man - Nick Cage
Actually, almost any movie where we keep Nick Cage. Kickass, Gone in 60 Seconds, Lord of War.
- Mandy, or Color Out of Space
- Raising Arizona?
  Alternatively, which muppet would make the best Nic Cage?
  
  Gonzo, obviously
  
  Doctor Teeth.

Deep Throat, keep Linda Lovelace obvs

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

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

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

John Wick, Keanu stays.

Super Hornio Bros, Ron Jeremy
- He's a rapist fyi, people don't know that enough.
  
  Shit I was just trying to be silly. Sorry, I didn't know

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

Interstellar - Anne Hathaway

Lord of the Rings, Gandalf stays

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

Weekend at Bernie's. Bernie.

My first thought: John Wick movies and keeping Keanu
