It's a goddamn sketch that was only funny because it was a 3 minute parody of Macgyver! a 1 1/2 parody is idiotic? It was funny cause he asked from stupid things, got distracted, then boom thing blew up. And it wasn't funny after the 2nd sketch because you knew what would happen. I'm just so...I don't know...I feel disappointed and let down this shit gets made. By the people who did Shaun of the Dead of all things...I'm so sad now.

If SNL did something like short films (10-30 min features) instead, it could probably work a lot better. As it is, all the good jokes are in the trailer, and then you have to watch a fat Val Kilmer so... bleh.

I think they just wanted to make a MacGyver parody movie and decided to use a preexisting parody for the nostalgia market. You know. For the... unusually tiny nostalgia market.

I don't know I kind of see this as a script that someone did as a dare, like, "Extend a sketch into a whole movie in 30 days or else you'll have to eat this dog".

Did we really believe Wayne's World could be made into two feature-length films, though? And look how that turned out! (cue cheers or groans)
