The bottom of the barrel for unoriginal movie ideas… could this be it?
Universal Studios is committing $100 MILLION to a comedy based on the old, cheesy Sid & Marty Krofft Saturday morning kid’s show Land of the Lost.
Land of the freaking Lost.
I’m just about speechless. Seriously, what’s left? How much lower can they go for source material for movies? No disrespect to the Kroffts intended, I enjoyed those cheesy Saturday morning shows when I was nine years old. But to base a movie on that show? A hundred million dollars? And turn it into a Will Ferrell comedy? Maybe I should write a spec script for a $100MM Gumby movie (I’d say H.R. Pufnstuf, but I have a feeling that’s already in the works somewhere).
