(Pocket-lint) – Another classic Photoshop contest from Design Crowd sees entrants reinvent famous partnerships with fun results.
Known as Swapping Partners, this competition has famous fictional teams and movie partners breaking up from their usual boyfriend and teaming up with someone else instead. The results are often funny and certainly make us imagine what it would be like if this actually happened.
We’ve rounded up some of our favorites, but be sure to check out the galleries on Design Crowd for a taste of the best of the rest.
The Lone Ranger and Boy Wonder
The fourth content winner Swapping Partners was designed by Mandrak and shows the classically popular masked lawman, the Lone Ranger being fixed with Robin instead of Tonto.
We’re not sure the Boy Wonder would be so good at stalking their prey, but at least his masked appearance matches that of his new partner.

Flav flavor and Oliver Hardy
Oliver Hardy, the legend of the silent movie era from 1927 to 1955 has apparently ditched his good pal Stan Laurel in favor of Flavor Flav.
We’re not sure the American rapper would have been this popular on the silent movement scene, but he certainly has the larger-than-life personality to be entertaining.

Batman and grommit
While the Joker may not have been Batman’s partner, it’s certainly hilarious to imagine what could happen if he were the archenemy of the Caped Crusader.
Easily defeated with just a good chunk of cheese.

Sherlock Powers
Fictional detective Sherlock Holmes traded his loyal sidekick and serious business partner, Dr Watson, for the posh Austin Powers.
We imagine this movie would be more frolics than usual but definitely worth watching.

Mario and mickey
Mickey Mouse is always so happy and is delighted to team up with Mario. However, the Italian plumber doesn’t seem very happy to lose Luigi.

Wall-E and Baby Groot
Imagine the insane conversations these two would have. Neither able to communicate in the usual way, they would certainly have an interesting time together.

Miss Piggy and the Beast
We imagined the Beast would get more than he bargained for by having Miss Piggy in his life. She is quite the handle.
The muppet is certainly a fun replacement for Belle and we imagine this Jim Henson / Walt Disney crossover would be fun to watch.

Pluto and Shaggy Rogers
Ruh-roh – RAGGY !!! Scooby Doo, the Danish mastiff hobbyist detective has been replaced by another famous cartoon dog in the form of Pluto – Mickey Mouse’s pet dog.
However, he’s a perfect fit for the gang, as he’s quite intelligent, doesn’t speak English either, and is as easily scared as Scooby Doo.
Chris Tucker and Owen Wilson
This is not only a partner exchange, but also a crossover of films. With Chris Tucker of Rush Hour Fame and Owen Wilson of Shanghai Knights teaming up.
Poor Jackie Chan has apparently been completely abandoned. We’re not sure where the Shanghai element comes into play here, but we’re sure Wilson and Tucker would make a hilarious couple.
Lady and the … Gromit
Gromit makes a second appearance this time sipping spaghetti with Lady from Lady and the Tramp.
Perhaps one of the most well-known animated scenes of all time, the romantic puppies could have had a very different relationship if Grommit was the star. We hope there will be enough cheese for his taste.
Oscar and Nemo
This crossover sees Shark Tale’s Oscar teaming up with Nemo. Both films have a strong shark presence, so that makes a lot of sense.
Will Smith would definitely bring a fun extra dose of charisma to Finding Nemo.

X files
Imagine The X-Files but with David Duchovny’s Mulder replaced by a much more serious Clint Eastwood.
We are not sure it would be so open to the truth.
This summer they won’t take the plane
Back in rush hour, except this time Jackie Chan has been replaced by Mr.T.
Just remember he doesn’t get on some fucking stupid plane.

Asterix, Obelix and Odie
It seems that many people involved in this competition have a soft spot for swapping beloved dogs from various teams and partnerships.
Here, the adorable Obelix puppy, Dogmatix, has been replaced by Garfield’s four-legged pal, Odie. Either way, he fits the bill perfectly, but we wonder how useful he would be in the fight against the Romans.
Will Smith and Wallace
We haven’t seen a real world cartoon / movie in a long time. While Martin Lawrence and Will Smith make a good team, we’d still love to see Wallace team up instead. The slap comedy would certainly follow.

Monster University only with Minions
Mike Wazowski disappeared from Monsters University and was replaced by Minions. We have to admit that Minions would be a fun fit in the monster universe.
Supernatural files
Sadly, after running for 15 years, the beloved Supernatural sci-fi series ended with season 15.
Perhaps this spin-off starring Jared Padalecki and David Duchonvey could fill the void left by the series.
