Josh O'Connor's fancast dreams of becoming live-action Alfredo Linguini from 'Ratatouille' are dead.

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

          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.

              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.

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

      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.
