Muppet ‘Pulp Fiction’

I have absolutely no idea how I found this.

Toronto-based filmmakers Rob Paul and Eric Miles (416 Films) have created this YouTube video in which the trailer for 1994 Quentin Tarantino hit Pulp Fiction is dubbed, and the heads of all the characters are replaced with the heads of muppets. “Felt. Stuffing. Googly eyes,” reads the announcer, with all the seriousness of a judge.

The classic tagline, “You won’t know the facts until you’ve seen the fiction” is replaced with: “You won’t know the facts … until you see it done with puppets.” Kermit replaces John Travolta, Fozzie stands in for Samuel L. Jackson and Uma Thurman is played by (who else?) Miss Piggy.

Will Pulp Muppets get us any closer to finding out what’s in that briefcase? No. But it is quite a feat of editing, and will hopefully make you laugh.

Who knew the Muppets were such dirty birdies?
