What makes a puppet a main character?

[edit]

From the list's lead section:

Puppet films feature puppets as lead characters.

A Twitter user asked me whether Gremlins and Child's Play count. The inclusion of The Dark Crystal leads me to believe the criterion is live-action films produced using animatronics or other puppetry, not films where a character is seen in-universe as a puppet. The inclusion of Follow That Bird and Labyrinth leads me to believe it need not include an all-puppet cast, just puppets in several leading/supporting roles. Child's Play and Pinocchio (1996) might be on the line because of only one puppet. Where shall we draw the line? Damian Yerrick (talk) 13:22, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would draw the line of a puppet is the main character (even if it just the one) it does not matter if the puppet is in universe a puppet
