The Velveteen Ocelot

Keep Sean Connery
leighbythesea2
(1,200 posts)He's my all time favorite actor. So yes! Baha.
Any Bond film w Connery!.
The Breakfast Club would be fantastic.
leighbythesea2
(1,200 posts)Keep Terry Benedict.
happybird
(4,605 posts)Of course, keeping Daniel Day Lewis was my first thought, but it might be better to keep Brenden Gleeson, instead. Id love to see a Muppet Bill the Butcher.
leighbythesea2
(1,200 posts)The villians in any movie would be great. Some people I just want to see in muppet form.
DiCaprio would be good one.
happybird
(4,605 posts)Keeping Kiefer Sutherland would be interesting. His snarly faces and attitude would be ridiculous directed at a crew of underling vampire Muppets.
And I want to see vampire Grover.
leighbythesea2
(1,200 posts)That film is my favorite vampire one. Jason Patrick is great. It's so campy, as in good 80s. I picked Sutherland too. Those kids already are pretty whimsical.

(1,200 posts)A muppet yell "We are Sparta!"
So any Sparta, or Troy type movie. Plus the way they run is funny, so any mass amount of them charging into battle.
Mr.Bill
(24,282 posts)Keep Woody Allen.
leighbythesea2
(1,200 posts)For sure. His personality already reminds me of Beaker. Silly as is.
