The thing about the “one human” Muppet memes is that they get the directionality backward. It isn’t “recreate an existing movie and retain one human actor,” it’s “recreate an existing story and cast one human in an appropriate role.” Christmas Carol wasn’t a bunch of Muppets and George C. Scott.
GONZO: “Among the flock of sheep for sacrifice was Enkidu, their guard. A great man. A leader, A hero!”
RIZZO: “How much of a hero do you have to be to impress sheep, anyway?”
