Timothée Chalamet, replaced by Elmo from Sesame Street

The video, which we have put above, is worth it. In it, the golden boy of today’s cinema, Timothée Chalamet, is replaced by Elmo in the recent film dunes. In this case, the scene answers the question: «What would happen if Elmo faced the Gom Jabbar?».

The solemnity of the situation in the film contrasts with the childish and good-natured spirit of Elmo and, precisely through this contrast, the humor of the video is achieved, which, if nothing else, elicits a valuable smile.

In the interaction, that mood is accentuated by Elmo’s answers to Reverend Mother’s momentous questions of the Bene-Gesserit, Gaius Helen Mohiam.

Likewise, there is a moment where Elmo, looking at the Mother Superior’s ceremonial clothing, asks her why she is wearing a blanket over her face.

When the doll reaches into the box, as Paul Atreides does in the film, the Reverend puts the Gom Jabbar, a legendary poison needle, on its neck. That forces Elmo to keep his hand inside him and the pain begins to cause him to have mixed visions. One of them, in fact, connects with the one about Elmo who raises his arms in front of a fire and who is meme meat all over the internet.

Honestly, it is the stupidity of the day that we need to remember a little that the world is more than the news and that, everywhere, there is always someone who puts their time and effort into making us smile.

The truth is that little else is known about the YouTube channel that created it and has, at the moment, that one video. But as lovers of dolls and movies, as they themselves say in the information, it seems that is going to dedicate himself to making more Sesame Street montages combined with famous movies.

The truth is that it would not be the first channel to do this, since others, like Owlkitty’s, also specialize in substituting movie elements and actors for other things. In the case of today’s video it’s Elmo, in the case of Owlkitty it’s a cat.

Finally, there it is. It is a video that already has almost 1 million well-deserved visits and, without a doubt, if it succeeds, it could be the first of many.
