Watch SESAME STREET’s Funny BIRDMAN Parody - "Big Birdman"

View fullsize

Sesame Street has a fantastic Birdman parody that they've created called "Bigbird Man: The Unexpected Virtue of Orange Pants." In place of Michael Keaton's Riggan Thomson, we have Caroll Spinney, the puppeteer behind Big Bird, in the main role, as he's being haunted by Bigbird.

For your Oscar consideration: A veteran puppeteer, who plays an avian icon, battles his ego and attempts to find his way back to a certain furry and friendly street. This is 'Big Birdman.'

The parody was posted by The Watercooler, and it gets all of the details of the Alejandro González Iñárritu-directed film right from the musical score to the single-take shot. I think this video is geared more towards adults than kids, and I think a lot of you will get a kick out of it.
