Yeah I've seen a couple, not funny, not clever, not even a good name.

What I would much rather have is a true MacGyver movie.

IMO, SNL is as funny as it has ever been but I never really liked any of the SNL-based movies. I do hope that it'll be funny though.

I feel they are very funny, clever and the theme song is awesome.

Now, the MacGyver show is HORRIBLE! It's up there with A Little House on the Prairie. Every and I mean every episode is the exact same. So much so, you can break down each plot point to the minute. This is what makes the sketches so funny.

So, for you to put down the sketch and then praise the show in the same breath, you obvisouly don't get the humor that Taccone and Forte were going for. But, Mr. MacGyver himself gets it.

After saying all this, I'm not sure if it would work as a movie, but I loved Hot Rod and I'll see anything that Will Forte does because I think he's a genius

one of the few funny skits left on SNL, this cast is the worst imo SNL has ever had, and the writers are slacking as well, while i like macgruber and seeing the original macgyver guest for skits, cannot see this as a movie even a bad one

Why, because you just realized how bad MacGyver was?

You're entitled to your opinion. Just odd how much you seem to HATE MacGruber.

Never said I 'hate' it. Just don't find it funny. Making a feature length movie of something I don't find funny in 2 minute spirts makes it a bad idea IMO. Plus not a fan of Will Forte.
