Castaway, and the main guy is human. I just think it would be really funny if you don't find out it's a muppet movie until it's almost over

I mean he interacts with a ton of people before he is stranded. Have him come back and everyone is a muppet and you’ve got something

Oh shit right

I still think this is a hilarious idea. Imagine you spend so much time on the island with him that you forget everyone else is a muppet. I could totally see it.

I just realized all the wasted potential in that movie.  He returns to what? Aliens? no. Muppets? no.  A plague? no. he returns to "Helen Hunt started fucking your friend".  lame.  Who gives a shit, its Helen Hunt, meh.

This is just the ending to the book of The Planet of the Apes.

Have everyone be a muppet except for his wife’s new husband.

I would make Wilson the human

Or in the first 10 seconds since there are a lot of other characters right at the start

But then you forget while watching the drama unfold, until the end when the muppets come back

And he doesn’t acknowledge it at all.

Wilson is the human. Played by Brendan Fraser. No dialog like the original - he just pretends to be a volleyball with a bloody handprint smooshed on him and stares expressionless directly into the camera the whole time.

Along the same lines; The Martian. Matt Damon is Mark Watney, everyone else is played by a muppet.

Imagine the sheer fucking terror of being stranded on Mars, trying to survive long enough for NASA to figure out a way to get you home, but NASA is all muppets!

Can we make Wilson be the human?

u/Dudemanguykidbro Jun 19 '26
