Rocky Horror. Susan Sarandon.

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

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.

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

The Rocketeer (1991).

Timothy Dalton.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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.

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

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

My wife said: Legally blond, keep Witherspoon

[–] QuoVadisHomines@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Keep Jennifer Coolidge. Piggy is Reese's role and Kermit is Luke Wilson's role

Cast Away. Tom Hanks.

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

Sonic the Hedgehog, Jim Carrey

[–] BmeBenji@lemm.ee 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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

[–] ClanOfTheOcho@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

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

Edit: Alien. Keep Sigourney Weaver.

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