Film buffs rolled their collective eyes at news that this year would bring yet another version of A Star Is Born, and their skepticism is understandable.
The original 1937 version starred Janet Gaynor. The 1954 Judy Garland vehicle rebooted and rebranded her career. The 1976 version starring Barbra Streisand was met with mixed reviews. When we learned we would be getting another remake starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga, many people thought: HARD PASS. That is, until the rapturous reviews came in hailing this as the best version of the story yet, lauding Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga and launching both both of them right into the Oscars race.
Since we seem to get a remake of this story every few decades, one Twitter user imagined what the next version might look like.
This Muppet version fan trailer is as close to a shot for shot version of the Cooper-Gaga trailer as one can make with existing Muppet footage.
People were obsessed.
Others praised specific editing details.
And most just wanted to see this version immediately.
Let's all pray that the inevitable 2042 remake of this movie is this Muppets version.
