Viral Video Big Birdman Parody: Before 2015 Oscar Night, Sesame Street Takes On Michael Keaton Movie!

The votes are already in, just waiting for the names to be presented on Oscar night next Sunday, so it's no surprise that this is also high season for nominated parodies - and, of course, nothing could make things funnier than a Sesame Street parody, starring everyone's favorite Big Bird in the title role!

The Big Birdman parody was a collaboration between Sesame Street and website Mashable, and it sees Caroll Spinney - the 81 year-old puppeteer who has voiced Big Bird for the past 45 years - starring as the star of the long-running beloved children's show, walking around New York while his character haunts him!

Of course, this takes after the original film, which sees Michael Keaton's character being followed by his old character, Birdman.

Enjoy the Big Birdman parody below, entitled "Big Birdman (or The Unexpected Virtue of Orange Pants)."
